My favorites are the ones where they say "I read your profile and I really loved it! Where are you and what do you do?" Uh, that's IN my profile. If you had actually read it, you wouldn't be asking.

Lately I'm getting a lot of one-word messages: "Hi" or "hello," with nothing else. Nothing much to work with.




I would agree, of course, unless they have enormous gazoongas. I like to work those.
I can vouch for that!bigsmile

Wux,
The Northern territory is the land of the Laid Back.

NT(Northern Territory) stands for Not Today Not tomorrow, Not Tuesday Not Thursday Probably Not the Next Truck. So if you are impatient, here is probably not a good place to be.

Our coldest months average 29C around 88 F our warmer ones 35C around 98F so all year is nice and warm. We have two seasons the wet and the dry, Through the dry we normally have no rain for 4 tp 6 months and through the wet it pretty much rains every afternoon, it can be sunnty one sec then it drops

We have 211 000 people in 1,352,176 square km

We are who we are and dont really give a rats behind if people don't like our manners, our clothes or our country, basically it's ours so they can deal with it, we hurry for no one, thats just a way of life. If we want to stop and chat for an hour we do. We seem to have more holidays than the rest of the country and even on our work days it's realy still relaxed and holiday like anyway.

You can drive for hours and not hit a town.

We laugh at everything and everyone, life is a joke. It's how we cope, the more we like you the more we will hassel you.

We probably have more snakes and spiders that can kill you then most of the world, but really we don't notice as they are just part of life, and if they dont get you then a croc might.

As for our speach, most of our words are shortened so that we can say what you do in about a quarter of the time, half the Americans and Canadians can;t understand us but thats cool, we know what we are saying.

So wux, thats the Northern Territory in a nut shell:wink:


Josie, you live either in heaven, or in the garden of eden, you do realize that, don't you.

Have a bit of faith Charles...This is actually a really good site. I tried POF....it was somewhere between bland and vanilla.

I got banned for life from Datehookup...it was like trying to make conversation during a bar fight.

Mingle does indeed take a bit of work and patience....if you want something hot and sexy at your door in the next half hour..you should probably order pizza. But, I ain't even kidding when I tell you that I have physically met some really cool people here. I have also met a lot I would love to meet.

This is an easy paced marathon....it ain't a sprint.




I was on Datehookup for about a month. I didn't like it at all. It's exactly what it says. It's a hook up site. If you are looking for nothing but sex, That's the place to go. I want more than that.
POF, It's hard to explain. The owner claims that they have more marriages and people getting together than any other site. I find that hard to believe myself. With thread after thread talking about messages that never get answered. How can people get together if they don't talk? Anyway,

I'm in no hurry. As I get older I find myself looking for quality more than quantity.


I have to agree with you about POF. Personally; I never met any decent guys there; either players or want someone younger. A complete waste of time. And the forums is nothing but fighting.

Here if we want to order a piece of furniture it takes up to 12 weeks to get here, if we want a new car thats not sitting on the floor then you wait up to 4 months, waiting is not that big a deal here:wink:


I hain't ever been to the Canadian outback. People who live there have 17 words for snow, and 38 for Vodka with Raw Whaleblubber.

What have you got, Josie, for the equivalency of this? The Saudis have 13 words for sandstorm, and the Americans have 23 words for political speeches.

There are more poeople living in a small suburb in Toronto than in the entire province and island of Newfoundland (half a million) and Newfoundland has ten times the population of those who live on 98 percent of the landmass of Canada, in the Canadian North. The North, by the way, is seventy-four percent water, lakes, rivers, and twenty six percent land. Of course the whole thing is ice, mostly, most of the year.

Canada, in its natural state, is 99.999 percent snow-covered from mid-January to end of February.

It's friggin' cold here, man.

Those who live there, in the far norht, they love it. They wouldn't change their location for anything in the world. Probably coz they have to wait fourteen months for the mortgage company to turn them down.

Four of the eleven provinces of Canada have over five million residents. The tiny island of Prince Edward Island, which is a province, has 143,000 people, when the university is in session. They are the most richly represented peoples in any province in Canada in the Canadian National Assembly. Of the 322 seats, 22 are for PEI. Yet the jokes are always made on the Newfoundlanders.


There is a spot, a town or area, in Newfoundland, where people speak straight Chaucerean English. Oxford scholars go there for their sabbaticals to write their books on the Canterbury Tales. And there is more: Newfoundland has a Placenta Bay, and a settlement called Dildo, and even National Georgraphic maps and atlases show them such as that.

I read some statistics somewhere (i love people with a lithp) that German tourists seem to be sitting on the top of that 'gott by croc' list.

They might want to consider adding German to those BEWARE signs.

I think the problem is that they don't realise that if there is no sign saying beware Croc's that it doesnt mean it's safe, it just means there are to many water holes to put them on. The other thing is they stand on the edge not realising how fast they are.noway
They pulled over 300 out of the harbour last year and thats only the ones they caught.noway
