    …now can someone explain why I see so many gorgeous men with *ahem*,“unattractive” girlfriends or wives? (And side note - why do these unattractive women always have entitled, unbearable personalities?)

    Perhaps they are the trophy husband? 

  2. I think back then men were hitched a nd with kids by 30. Male appearance wasn't as prized.. Now people take care of themselves and quite a few of my straight friends have wives who outearn them. They are not shouldering the weight of the whole family on their shoulders. That is of course if they are married. We are not beasts of burden only fit to earn or wage war. I am quite liking this new era.

    I read recently that hotel rates are up nationally 25% - Around here, some seem to have doubled, or more.    4 and 5 star properties in Napa and Sonoma counties defy reason - the craziest are charging 2000/night.   A few weeks ago, we stayed overnight at a Hampton Inn in Petaluma - it was very nice for a Hampton Inn  I admit - but $350.00/night?  We paid it because we needed a change of scenery and we ended up having a really enjoyable time in Petaluma, who knew?

    Wow-you don't get the 49 bucks a night deals for Motel 6 anymore? I admit, it has been a while -years-since I visited. But I got a 54 dollar night deal for 4 nights in Santa barbara.  But 350 for Petaluma-Santa Rosa has a few choices? I guess I am not travelling to CA .

  4. It is very sad. If you are terminally ill, I am ok. But I shudder to think of 18+ years old being allowed to go that route. At that age very small things appear to be insurmountable odds  -a love failure or not getting the right promotion or other things. I myself have thought of ending it all over what seems laughable issues now. I ended up having kids and a family . It should be reserved to the terminally ill-and that includes the young. But other causes should involve a lot of counselling and allowed in extreme cases. Now people commit suicide all the time-so it is not going to stop them-but ideally we should help them on-not encourage them to commit suicide. Now in cases where they are terminally ill and doing it to end the pain and go out in a dignified manner-that is fine.

    Dino is a Junior, named after his grandfather.  He has a twin named Rocco Jr, named after their dad.  And they have a sister named Gina.  Boy, you could never tell their backgrounds from their names, right?  Here are the siblings:

    She looks scarier than the boys.

    Am I the only person who's a little weirded out by the title of this thread?

    I felt the same-importing someone-perhaps an oversight. One doesn't import people-goods or livestock only. Perhaps a mistake . But otherwise-it seems too soon-why not have him come as a tourist for a few months and see how it goes?  This sound like one of the mail order brides situation.

  7. This new concept sounds dumb. These kids are born in the lap of luxury , travel in private jets. Best thing is set up a trust fund and slowly train them to manage it and wean them off the parents. But to learn to live with trust fund or if they are talented help run some business or something.

     

    it is not like the rest of us who grow up and take great joy at purchasing a small apartment. I was so happy when I bought my first used car -for 3,000 bucks. That thing gave me another 100,000 miles with barely any issues-then suddenly fell apart. It was a great achivement for me. How is a kid who grew up flying private jets and servants etc be happy saving up and buying a used car?

     

    It is what it is-have some compassion for the kid's condition and help set them up for adult life.

    Yes.

    He called his fellow soldiers ragheads and pakis and made fun of them saying they looked like terrorists. Any other soldier would have been kicked out-but no not him-he was made Captain general of the marines.

     

    Oh and Paki in England is a horrific racial slur for people originating from the Indian sub continent. The guy should talk about his own racism .

    Simply being gay isn't a criminal offence in any of the world's countries; rather, it's acting out on your homosexual orientation (having sex with other men) that is the punishable offence.

    Well true. But it depends. I believe in kenya they do anal inspections to see if you are gay. I wonder what do they do, shove a finger in and see if you get excited? I do not know what they do in Egypt.
