“What this is also says is that once a lie is believed, repeated and corroborated by experts as factual then people will blindly accept and repeat the lie as well. This permeates so many areas and levels of society.”

“That's the real crime. And for the media to blindly report it is doubly criminal.”

Pyrrhic Victoria: Why Men Are Becoming More Like Women
Commented Nov 22, 2009 at 09:56:35 in Living
“In summary, men are now completely whipped. It bothers me seeing so many feminine, metro guys on the borderline of being gay. Women have told me they can't find independent, strong men anymore. No real guys left they've said.”

“Really? I've never heard any woman say that. None of my girlfriends have trouble finding men they enjoy being with, and none of them have ever decried the so-called lack of "real men" whatever that means.”

Mothers and Sons: How Close Is Too Close?
Commented Nov 12, 2009 at 20:20:52 in Living
“Too much mommy is detrimental to a boy's development. This is true. There has to be a yin yang balance between mother and father. And a father shouldn't baby his kid too much either. I've always felt it was inappropriate when mom's are kissing their sons on the lips.”
The Rules Redux: 4 Mind Games Men Play

“My step brother has been with his wife since they were in the 5th grade. His first girlfriend in 5th grade became his only girlfriend thoughout grade school, high school, college and life. He's been married 24 years with kids in college now and is happy. I used to think he missed out on dating others but now I feel he just found the right one while very young. He never had to go through the typical bullshiiit described in this article. Because everything stated is generally true. People like to think of themselves as original in thoughts and actions. However, most are as similar and predictable as lemmings jumping over a cliff.”

“His show is multifaceted and sociological. He's much more than what is seen on his TV show which was only a fragmented form with the most salacious parts. Many have stolen from him as he claims including Letterman and Leno. He has many powerful friends including Donald Trump who knows his contribution and respects him.”

About Ghosts
Commented Oct 20, 2009 at 18:10:50 in Living
“At 9, I witnessed something at my grandparents. The victorian house was a three story built in the 1800's. It was summer, no one was home. My grandma had just left to run an errand and I was outside with my cousin playing with a frisbee. I never liked to go into the house without someone else, but I wanted another frisbee from the second story bedroom. The stairs were on the right when one enters the front door. I ran upstairs into the room grabbed the frisbee and ran back to the stairs. As I stood at the top looking down, I did a double take and saw a black silhouette in the shape of a dog with pointy ears like a german shepherd looking up at me with its head tilted like a dog does when curious. It was a black shadowy shape, no features. I felt a chill run up my back. It lasted about 3 seconds. I recall saying 'please god' as a prayer as I walked quickly down the stairs through the same spot where I saw it standing. I felt such a creepy feeling on the back of my neck from my own fear as I ran out the front door.”

Men Aren't All That Happy Either
Commented Oct 20, 2009 at 12:51:01 in Living
“Happiness is merely contentment and harmony without feeling depressed or dejected. Euphoria and feelings of happy excitement is illusionary and only temporary. Comparing ones self to others is a bad habit people have and can lead to feeling morose for a lot of people. Having a career that's fulfilling is helpful... and looking forward towards work is always good but seem to be a rare commodity these days for many. Women generally are less happy than men and if a man is married to an unhappy woman he will suffer her wrath.”

One Last, Strange Night With David Carradine
Commented Jun 05, 2009 at 03:55:31 in Entertainment
“Carradine was just speaking the truth outloud in this scenario. The truth can have an anti-social tone sometimes. Maybe he was being a bit passive-aggressive as well, having a bad day, wanting to vent. The mic hitting someone's head was an accident while he was pissed. I always saw him as a bit shy and introspective and that along with a combination of other factors could be involved on that day. Sometimes a shy person can compensate in social situations by being a bit jerk like. Also, years ago he said in an interview he was manic-depressive I recall.
If there's an afterlife, I hope he found peace. I will miss him.”

I always saw him as a selfish ass hole, not at all shy. I think you are confusing him with the character he played in Kung Fu.”

“I'm headed towards the ten year mark, and I don't plan to go back, although for different reasons. Those people all treated me like crap.
