love is blind and stupid. Just do what is right and practical from your POV, and think long term.

rather chilly

This question is nagging at me, so I thought I'd ask you experts. Is it possible to genuinely fall in love with someone you've only gotten to know on a site like mingle? It used to seem very strange to me...but then I recall a simpler time when people didn't have all this instant communication and had to get to know each other by snail mail letters. The emotions were just as real by letter if not moreso than in person.

So, are these warm and fuzzy feelings caused by digital words and images real emotions or just the illusion of emotion? If it is genuine, is that a good thing?

flaming hot (literally)

Not really. The slavery problem was nationwide. For all its problems, the members of the CSA were correct to assert their right to secede. (for those who don't know, the civil war was not over slavery. It was about several things, including conflicts over nullification and secession.) Lincoln himself said in a letter to Horace Greely "My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors; and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views."

Not necessarily. BJJ fighters wear gloves and are world-renowned for their floor work.

Highly unlikely. Most fights (especially brawls) go to the floor anyway. Grapplers and extremely comfortable on the floor. Check out one of the Gracies on youtube. Insanely powerful. There's a vid there of Hoyce forcing a 500 lb sumo wrestler to tap out (and he was underneath the sumo! ). eta: here's the Gracie vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POJ2T023M4I

A brazillian jiu-jitsu wrestler would win every time.

I have a timer, but no tripod.

Not yet, and not yesterday.

Respect is a two way street. If you give respect and don't get any, demand it or leave.

not to me.

BOYS probably do, but MEN respect women enough to let women make the choice.

My stalkers were in real life. Creepier than webbernet stalkers IMO.

2 days and still no ratings?

Only when I teased her with the dog chewbone thing. Just play bites. R.I.P.

Still love you, ((((kitten))))!
