He/She/It was posting from Washington D.C. of all places.
Ok people nothing to see here...
“He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”
I put up a motion unbanning grace for a 24 hour period to determine if she was a hot chick or not.
And if she turns out to be a hot chick, I further put up a motion that all her privileges be reinstated and that Benny gets banned for the good of the sisterhood and the community.
...Peace, peace! he is not dead, he doth not sleep -
He hath awakened from the dream of life -
'Tis we, who lost in stormy visions, keep
With phantoms an unprofitable strife,
And in mad trance, strike with our spirit's knife
Invulnerable nothings. -We decay
Like corpses in a charnel; fear and grief
Convulse us and consume us day by day,
And cold hopes swarm like worms within our living clay.
The One remains, the many change and pass;
Heaven's light forever shines, Earth's shadows fly;
Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
Until Death tramples it to fragments. - Die,
If thou wouldst be with that which thou dost seek!
Follow where all is fled! - Rome's azure sky,
Flowers, ruins, statues, music, words, are weak
The glory they transfuse with fitting truth to speak...

How dose [sic] that relate[punctuation "questionmark"-end of comment] the only thing I got from it was that your [sic] not pro violence and do not have a good grasp on this concept to witch [sic] they speak.
Grasp?
Learn to spell and write. You appear lacking a "...good concept..." of those basics. Consider that a point of departure to credibility.
Or choose a board discussing these topics in your native language.

I second the motion (even though I'm ex oficio!).

Why linger, why turn back, why shrink, my
Heart?
They hopes are gone before; from all things here
The have departed; thou shouldst now depart!
A light is passed from the revolving year,
And man, and woman; and what still is dear
Attracts to crush, repels to make thee whither.
The soft sky smiles,-the low wind whispers near:
'Tis Adonais calls! oh, hasten thither,
No more let Life divide what Death can join together.

Grace (our version, not the hot singing one) was perfectly suited to this thread. Unfortunately she was poorly suited to the board. I hear a Queen song starting up in the background.
I haven't done a runner I can assure you Zraver. We have an audit at work, it's crazy! I have a boys get-together later on after work, so will either b late tonight or sometime tomorrow.
The Gaza experiment worked out exactly as predicted when Israel pulled out and dismantled everything and then cut off trade. They created a giant ghetto that breed violence and extremism.
What did they dismantle? And why shouldn't they cut off trade when the ruling govt. of Gaza declared war on them?
In the realm of spirit, seek clarity; in the material world, seek utility.
