taking odds on bombing - syria/iran, obama/romney
i say if obama is elected, 70% chance syria gets it, 60% iran.
if romney i say 80% bombs away on syria, 60% on iran.
and of course, drones/cia/funding terrorist organizations in those states 100% on both, no question.
any takers?

Calgary had some *very* sexy ladies too. And I prefer suburbia: neither city nor country. And obi, most of Cali is suburbia. South Central is city, but Beverly Hills and Santa Monica is suburbia.

As it should be, bo. I like Asians and Spanish/Latina. I like long dark hair and a nice lightly tinted skin with actual curves yet petite stature. I don't like women who can bench press me and the classic nordic blonde is not my style.

Everyone *should* have their own view of what they find beautiful in their preferred potential mates.

I shall clarify then... I want *natural* curves. Silicon should be used to make.microchips. And when I say I want curves, I don't mean a shelf ass. Jennifer Lopez has one of the best asses in show biz.

My point stands. The Hollywood and stripper crowd may have such enhancements, but well over 80% of women of California are all natural.

"California is a paradise for you then. The blonds may get the press coverage, but the clear majority of women in California fit your description."

This is true...

And I'll say this--

I love BOTH cross-sections of the fairer sex:

Very intelligent are both...
Asian women are often very intellectual...
Latinas are often very passionate here...

Which sounds somewhat sexist and generalized and a part of me hates it for saying that, but still...I may as well have it out while we're airing everything.

There are great White girls in the state as well, but yeah, between SF and LA, it is a paradise for those who love great Latinas and Asians.
is it just me or are earthquakes far more frequent than ever before? nobody can deny there has been a significant increase in earthquakes in recent years. and that increase is accelerating. does anyone know if there is a suitable graph constructed by a un panel on the matter? after we've established a clear increase, it should be easy enough to invent a cause.

@obi

I thought you weren't interested in women.
obiwanobiwan (248 D)

^I'm not sexually, not really...

I love to talk to them...there are typically more women in my English classes, and more that are passionate about English, and they're often closer to my temperament.

I LOVE women...just in a very mental and intellectual way, I'm not sexual with them...

Or with men, at all, hence my self-styled "asexual" stance.

I love women, if I could afford a girlfriend (well, it's true, need a job for a girlfriend, just as a matter of pride as well as for practicality) I wouldn't at all mind having one...

But I doubt I can get a girlfriend who doesn't care about sex, and is more interested in that sort of "marriage of true minds" I'd love to share with someone.

Women are just far more emotionally and intellectually fascinating and in-tune from my point of view.

But again, no sex is, understandably, not going to fly with most, well, most human beings, sex being one of our primary impulses, one I seem to lack...

So I've the perfect person to be stuck in their Friend Zone, since I have all the intellectual benefits of a friend and ask no sex or intimacy in return.

(Besides, even if there were a girl willing...I'd probably never ask her, any woman that wonderful to consider that would 1. Be so remarkably I'd honestly feel compelled to tell her she could probably do a LOT better, economically and socially and otherwise, and 2. Any girl who was that true a match and could debate with me so well and was so passionate and intellectually honed, likely far smarter than me...I'd never want to lose that sort of person as a friend on a gamble over a relationship when, really, what's gained without sex besides living with each other, which she can surely do with someone who wants that and will give sexual opportunity as well, so, back to 1, a better fish--or at least one who'd suit her better--is likely out there, and the Friend Zone isn't a bad place to be, given what I want and love about women, so I can live with that, and likely will for life.)

Why would asking a girl out ruin your friendship?
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))

If you generalize about women, you'll never have any understanding of what they are thinking. That brings you out of touch with them. You don't have to marry or date or whatever to get inside their brain; just try to understand them. A genuine woman looks for a genuine guy anyway. High school never ends for some, but for others, it's part of the past.
obiwanobiwan (248 D)
17 Oct 12 UTC
Suppose she said no--or thought it was out of line, or that we weren't on that level?

Even if it was just awkward...

Given that I don't at all mind a lack of intimacy (I'm not a fan of it, I must say, even just hugging, I'll be honest, I cringe...I sound like Sheldon Cooper right now, but I do, it's just not for me, just not me, period) the incentive then for gambling a comfortable relationship of trust and intellectual and emotional connection on something that would seem you yield little in the way of reward and could damage more and take away or lessen that comfort, and thus the relationship...it's severely lessened without an impulse for sexual relations...

And again, besides, I'd honestly feel that me being me, someone who loves controversy and stirring things up and (if I can ever GET ONE) is someone who's really very career minded and focused on writing and really something of an extroverted anti-social sort of person (so a lot more people count me as friends than I count them, but I still talk to everyone, nicely or no)...

There's someone more compatible, someone more wealthy, someone better suited to them out there, almost certainly, than me, and someone who would be into sex...

And then I'm just "that friend" to talk to about this or that, I suppose, the secondary or tertiary but not the primary, because I'm not the best fit there for them.

I can live with that...or likely will, anyway, I have so far...

Even Sherlock Holmes lived with his best friend taking a wife and placing others before him as a result...I identify with Holmes, and I can identify and live with that.

infiltration/corporate espionage/hiding/lying - evil?
can we have a consensus that people who lie/cheat/steal are evil and should not delude themselves into thinking they are on the side of justice? also should i do further research into the topic, of which i know something, and try to publish a book or something? or would it be dismissed as paranoia?
