Only you can answer.

You just answered your own statement.

First of all, if you happen to suddenly notice that your significant
other has changed ....
You probably didn't give them enough time to show their true colors, and rushed into a situation that you found all too familier ... then realize that you regret what you did. Some will even go to extravagant lenghts to extend their dillusional hope that the person will change for the better into that illusion they first thought they were.

What a waste of life.

That's one reason I've remained single. This isn't exactly the way I'd prefer to describe it, but if you give someone enough rope they'll either hang their self with it or build something constructive with it. Once that happens, then you can decide.

I remain single by my own choice.

If you really want to meet someone locally ...
get off of this internet and get out of your hole in the wall.
Start living your own life on your own terms.
Once you kick the habit of haunting the internet ... then
maybe, just maybe you'll start living.

I honestly don't care what length her hair is,
she can even be bald for that matter.
I look at hair to see if it's natural and well kept.
Seeing hair that's been ruined with chemicals tells me a lot
about a woman's self esteem.

1. Get off your duff.
2. Take stock in yourself.
3. Forget what everyone else says.
4. Go find something you enjoy doing so much that you would do it without being paid for it.
5. Enjoy your own life.

If you're spiritual in any sense, think about how long Adam must have been alone. I don't even think a female companion was on his mind when she was presented to him.

Be the captain of your own ship.
Know how to read the map, shoot the sun and plot your course.
Know how to read the wind.
Know when to tac.
Trust your first mate.
Understand how to deal with mutineers.

There are times given the present situations ...
That I wish I were the only one on the planet.

It's when you're walking on that path when someone happens along who is heading the same direction.

You don't have to ask. It just happens and you know it without question.

We're overdue for a dictatorship.

Want to get rid of the national debt in a hurry?
It's really easier than you can imagine.

Take all the INTEREST AND INSURANCE we've been paying to the banks and insurance companies and make sure the government gets it instead of all the political bribes they've been buying them off with.
I'll guarantee you, we'll be out of debt and have all our other needs taken care of within a year.

I'll probably get a small can of black powder and a steel pipe.
Put a cap on one end and tap a fuse hole for it.
Place about 2 ouces of powder in the bottom and pack it with wadding.
Light the fuse and run.

BOOM!

a quick electron burst from a nearby star would send this planet back into the electronic stone age.

Reminds me of a joke I once heard.
One guy was bragging to another that he could make a donkey laugh and cry.
The other guy humored him and made a bet. "A thousand says you can't".

On that note, wager commenced with the guy approacing a donkey and whispering in its ear. A few seconds later the donkey burst out laughing. Then about a minute later began weeping miserably.

"okay, here's your thousand, but how did you do it?"
He replied, "I told the donkey I was bigger, then proved it".

I wouldn't say that I "gave up".
I'd say that I had to make a decision to quit and save my sanity. That was about 20 years ago.

Take a 24 hour cross country drive without any sleep and drink only pepsi. That will do it. (Call it wired).

Just a demi-god. The moderators have the last say.

Relax, you seem to have some class. They'd have to shave you first.

I'll take the Capt. Morgans Rum.

Really, take a look at the world population.
It's reaching critical mass. Not 2012 ... but 2032.
But not in a "big boom" catastrophie.
Similar to the way it happened between 10,000 and 25,000 years ago ..
not withstanding the ice age, the population hit a "bottleneck" and it dropped to a total population of around 10,000 worldwide.
It will happen again, but this time we'll see a population of around one quarter million left alive out of over 6 billion.
If we take the "cosmic" bullet which is probable, we'll have less.

I thought a .308 had a longer chamber.
Oops, my mistake. I must have mixed that up with the 30-06.
