I knew very early, like 6 years old. I always wanted boys to chase me on the playground, or to "fight over me", LOL. I had so many little boyfriends back then, it's funny to think back about it now. When we played house, I always wanted to be the "mom". When we played School, I always...

I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to constantly be "out of the loop" in the situations you describe. It can be frustrating being the one doing the interpreting, sometimes, too. Much of my family is from the Netherlands, Belgium and France. I remember being a teenager...

Thanks for sharing, and for visiting.

The proof, as they say, is in the pudding. Veiled insults are still insults. Reverse the implication of some of your and Vamp's posts, and I wonder how insulted YOU might feel, if the situations were reversed. Implying (or coming right out and SAYING) that having pride in being gay is...

VamPyroX, you might consider examining just why this bothers you so much. On the surface, it seems irrational and petty. Our nation is chock FULL of people who express personal pride in their everyday lives... whether they're wearing t-shirts proclaiming their support for a particular...

Bottom line: we're never going to convince one another of our opposing views. Our beliefs are too deeply ingrained, and too closely held. All I can tell you is: I'm not lying, I'm not crazy, and I know what I saw. I know that other people saw what I saw. You've cited several examples of...

Gay people employ the use of rainbow flags and pink triangles for a number of reasons. The story behind how those symbols become icons for the gay community are just as varied. The rainbow flag has long been seen as a symbol of celebrating diversity (ie., you need all colors to make a rainbow...

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Hardly anyone saw anything?? What an idiotic statement. If you had ANY idea what traffic was like that morning, you'd know just how stupid that statement is. Hardly noticeable? Again, you don't know what the hell you're talking about. But again, you weren't there...

Well, let's see... Several hundred, if not thousands, of people that live and commute near the Pentagon saw what happened, with their own eyes. Not just people who work for the government, nor for the military, but "normal" every-day people. Respected journalists, people from all walks of...

You wouldn't know fact OR truth if either of them bit you on the ass. But it's amusing to see you invoke their definitions here. Thanks for providing the term 'Disinfo Artist', though. Now I know what to call you, since (as you'll see below), you definitely fulfill the criteria you borrow...

Yeah, I know, I know... I shouldn't have allowed myself to get sucked into it. But there's a part of me that just can't let Cloggy get away with pushing what he believes forward as the TRUTH, when I know otherwise. I think it's become something now where they've pushed it for so long, and...

Cloggy, ::sigh:: You're correct... it didn't "nosedive", in the sense that it didn't angle out of the sky. It DID come in horizontally, snapping powerlines near the Pentagon. When I used the term, it was more to convey the sense of something coming in hard and fast from the sky. So yes...

My dear Cloggy... in this, there is no need for me to question the government; I saw it for myself. If anything, I am more sure of it than George Bush, even, since I was there, and he was in a school in Florida. This is not like theatrical combat, where two actors are "play fighting", and...

You're shitting me, right? What you mean to say is that you'd like to sit comfortably in Oslo, or wherever the hell in Norway you are, and theorize about what MIGHT have happened, based on the paranoid ravings of people that weren't even THERE? Including YOURSELF? U bent gek, me vriend...

I'm obviously very late in arriving in this thread, and still catching up (I'm not even sure I'm going to make it through all 15 pages), so I'll apologize if anyone before me has already responded to this... but I just HAD to take issue with this theory of yours. I saw AA77 take a nosedive...

Ultimately, I think the basic argument boils down to the fact that everyone has different ideas about what is "best" for children (in general), and for THEIR children, specifically. Additionally, it would seem that there's a difference of opinion among people here about whether deafness...

Pardon my ignorance about the logistics of this kind of situation... but is there any way that - prior to the "assignment" starting - the interpretor and their client could go over ground rules, to determine what is expected and acceptable? Or... if this is taking place in an informal setting...

This hit a little close to home for me, because my parents lived in a loveless marriage for 25 years, all for the sake of "the kids" (my siblings and me). It was horrible... it felt like our family was being held hostage, and invariably in situations like these, parents begin to use their...

Marital infedility can be one of the most difficult things to deal with in your adult relationships. It's VERY difficult to be able to trust someone you cheats on you (whatever their reasons are/were). And in your case, Doug, it's happened MORE than once. :( And the problem with taking...
