(just realize that I'll probably bring a better snack)

As long as the snacks are beautiful to look at, I mean who cares how they taste.....

ha!

 

[Lord Pmann]

Everyone is different, and everyone has different views on what beauty is...and it is quite surprising that every culture has it's own idea as to what is beautiful.

For example...
Ethiopia: Scars on a woman is considered to be super sexy, and many women actually self inflict their bodies to enhance themselves...the more scars the more "ooo la la " she is.

also in southern Ethiopia women will stretch their lips by inserting clay plates into their lower lips...which is a symbol of sexual maturity...Meowwwwwww!

Mauratanian women are told that they need to gain weight, they actually send teenage girls to camps where they consume 15, 000 calories per day!..and no , I didn't accidentally add an extra zero...you read it correctly, 15, 000! I am certain these women do no eat like rabbits.

In Iran, women will wear bandages after getting a nose job even long after they have healed, because it is a status symbol...so they walk around , feeling sexy with bandages covering their nose...mmmmmmmm, hold me back baby!

Kenyan women will elongate their earlobes using elephant tusks to stretch them as far as they can ....damn, that must hurt

New Zealand women will tattoo their lips and chins, the more tattoos the more beautiful she is...

I could sit here and type for hours, you see where I am going...

Beauty cannot be defined, specifically...for we all have our own image in our mind as to what beauty is to us...

I do like what Mindfondler added to his post, with the wisdom from Dahl..

Also, kudos to "Giggles"... as always ,you made very thought provoking statements...

I'll play...but I wanna be on your team please
and I will bring an assortment of pizzas
if you bring
your famous snacks
I am sure that 15, 000 calories will add up in no time
and
maybe just maybe
you can elongate your earlobe
or tattoo your chin? Hubba Hubba

But then again, you are already BEAUTIFUL, in so many ways...
You don't need to do anything
except continue being
YOU!

In America girls make their tits bigger. And that is beautiful.

*giggle*

Pounce you right back!

I know, I know. I am supposed to be taking a break. I just wandered in to check PMs and got caught by the question. Starting tomorrow (I swear! ), I will be off again for another week. Maybe two....

But I'll be back for Halloween!!!!

 

[Mayberrygirl]

Ohhhh....Time marches on...as it always has...as it always will. It goes so quickly and none of us are getting out of here alive. SOOO...I have decided to take each day as it comes...enjoy the small, beautiful things and embrace the biggies and milestones with all the Grace and Beauty that I can muster. My youth had passed and it was glorious at times and heartbreaking at others...such is life heh? I will embrace my middle aged mind, body and soul and if I find myself lucky I spose to succumb to my upcoming elderly years with appreciation, wisdom, and the acceptance that it is what it is...

Fuck it, que the hip-hop. Whose got dance skills?

In the immortal words of Bell Biv Devoe - never trust a big butt and a smile.

 

[Mayberrygirl]

Hey...I can bust a move....still.. Fast, slow.. preferably clothed..til naked..at home. Not so much into the public exhibition as I used to be. More the Tina Turner "Private Dancer" scenario for me...

 

[ChainedUp]

Yesterday was a day of good, thought provoking sharing. we may need a little bit of a break, you know, with snacks. I learned we have some snack experts in the crowd so I expect them to step up.

In the mean time, does anybody really understand the electricity/power grid? Seems like a bunch of hand waving, hocus-pocus to me. Which leads me to bring up faith. We all have faith that the electricity will be there when we flip a switch(yes I know that this isn't true for many places in the world), or that when we cross the street the guy driving at us will slow. What things in your life to you accept on faith? What things don't you accept that you know you should. And what don't you have any confidence in?

*setting small table in the side of the room with morning pastries and an espresso bar*

it's so funny that you bring up faith. I think that many people associate faith with religion/god..
I skimmed an article yesterday where people received magnetic therapy to the part of the brain that controls fear. After treatment, they were more tolerant of immigrants and believed less in religion.. but it did not mention that people had less faith, only less fear.

I believe that I will always be able to count on my nurtured friendships. I believe that, if you are kind to others, it will get passed forward. I believe in the magic of celebrations.. everything from births to funerals.. they all bring us closer to one another and provide opportunities for human connection.
I used to believe that hospitals were full of people who were trying to get better.. but I don't believe that everyone has or uses the right resources.. and I think too many people lie to get what they think they want.
I should trust our national Congress; but I've kind of lost my faith in our government. The real issues are too complex to tackle.. and so we get tangled in the emotions of sacrifice instead of the wisdom of leadership.

yet again.. I've babbled.
I need to go read the question again.
help yourself to a fresh cinnamon roll.

Papa C!!!! This question was made for me! I do engineering design and testing for the power grid and generation plants! I can answer all of your power grid questions. What do you want to know????

As far as the actual power grid goes, you'd be surprised how much logistics goes into it. And the amount of energy that's there. And how you have horny wanker's like me controlling it.

Faith... I suppose the thing I have the most faith in is just getting up in the morning. I've never been one who is worried about death. I've always just assumed I'll be okay. One day that won't be true.

I also have never really worried about my job. In the worst economy, I've always been rather stable. As long as you fuckers keep using electricity, I'll be oooooookay.

 

[Lord Pmann]

You'd be surprised how little work an electrical engineer actually does, too. *laughing*

As for faith. Tough question.

You'd be surprised how much people from Australia can kiss my ass.

 

[ChainedUp]

I'm not comfortable that a squirrel looking to bury a nut can wreak such having with my precious electricity.

I assure you that your electricity is in good, cum covered hands. (My cum, fuckers)

You actually would be surprised how often squirrels, snakes and raccoons cause me problems.

Eric Clapton -Running On Faith

Defining faith can become so confusing for me. It's difficult for me to articulate.

In my youth, I had a tendency to be rather credulous. I spent a lot of time being tossed around, yanked and pulled, with no real sense of direction. I would believe anyone and anything. I just didn't choose to see the bad. When things became glaringly obvious, I would put my blinders on in an effort to protect my own complacency. This was not a good thing. This was not faith and trust. It was naivety and denial.

Then, I began to start opening my eyes to this thing called "faith" and this thing called "God" and what it meant to me on a very personal level. My perception and my faith are things that I am constantly defining and redefining. At this point in my life, I do define my faith in a more spiritual sense, and I am learning to trust myself as well as a higher power.

I know that there are many who believe that we are in total control of our own destinies. That doesn't work for me. I am certain that having faith in myself is to carry the belief that in all things I will be okay, as well as those around me, no matter whether the outcome is or isn't one that I would prefer. This faith in myself is what leads me to my faith in a higher power because I know if there is one absolute truth, it is that I can't control others and their choices, and we are all collectively affected by others. I will make choices myself that are not always favorable, and in time, will reveal themselves as mistakes, or they may only appear to be mistakes. That's the funny thing about faith. Some things we will just never really know. I put my faith in believing that if I choose love, if I choose goodness, if I define my values and adhere to them "faithfully", then I will live the best life possible for me. When I hear people say "God is good"... I am starting to look deeply within to understand what that means to me.

My faith in a higher power means that everything happens for a reason and that I must believe in this reason, and that I must accept that knowing the reason isn't necessary. I must have faith in what is... because what is, IS reality.

Nevertheless, I am certain that there is so much more to faith than what I know now, and I am hopeful that I will continue to redefine what it is and what it means to me. Or is this something I should be putting faith into instead of hope? Heh...

I deleted the bulk, not because I can't connect with hit, but because this concept offers so much to consider.

Just please tell me that you connect with the Eric Clapton part, too. My day could officially be made. Okay, if you don't, then lie to me!

History says that on a wall outside of one if his concerts someone wrote "Clapton is God". Now, if Clapton is really God, you can bet your a** I'm going to church on Sunday. *smile*

I mean.. if you feel the need to worship.. on your knees..

 

[Lord Pmann]

Did you all know I play guitar?????

Throws my hands in the air. Finally, someone who understands me!

Did you all know I play guitar?????

Pmann...he doesn't just play THE guitar. He plays HIS guitar and then he makes f***ing love to it.

 

[Lord Pmann]

Pmann...he doesn't just play THE guitar. He plays HIS guitar and then he makes f***ing love to it.

I can also fuck my guitar. It has the perfect fit for me where the guitar cable goes!

Actually, the first song I ever learned on Fingerstyle guitar was Tears In Heaven. And the first solo I ever learned was Layla.

I saw him in concert last year and he was just simply brilliant.

Indeed, he is, Pmann. What an awesome experience to see him live. He is not only a brilliant musician but he is also a brilliant lyricist.

One of the many reasons I love Mayer so much. To me, he is Clapton reincarnate, of course, in his own right. Neither of them could ever be duplicated.
