That was supposed to be a secret

That's a trick question ... we all know downloading music we don't own is wrong.

Well, what can I say ... gluttony happens to be my favorite sin. It is one of the only sins that only "hurts" me and no one else usually

Mikuni America Corporation http://www.revenirbeauty.com/GirlinBubble.gif Last time I was in LA, I saw their sign in northridge. Click here to learn about Mikuni America. Their slogan is "Aging Is Optional" ... I think they are sending a very wrong message to women . . . .

NOOOOOOOOOOO ... no one is cutting my thing off. But I like the perseverence part ... and the food ... and all the extra holidays.

Yay the weekend is here. Finally I can get some work done.

Well, it might as well be you since you sound the same So in that case, welcome aboard ArmenianPirate

Vigil, that statement is absolutely rediculous. It is so shallow and short sighted, I can't even begin to think on how to treat it. "An entire legion of his own people in Africa"? Are you serious? Do you see the entire continent of Africa as this giant sahara desert with lions and tigers and black people? How can you possibly have any idea where sev's roots are from? On top of that, how can you possibly be sure that he can fall back on his people, unless of course by "his people" you mean humans with genes that will make babies that will look chocolatey About the wonderfulness of being Armenian ... I simply refuse to base my life around circumstances, cultures, and religions that have been bestowed upon me by birth alone. I pride myself in having a brain, and I pride myself in being able to think. The culture, the people, the lifestyle, the religion, and the way of life I pick and choose should mostly be dictated by myself. And frankly, I rather not be part of this "elite club" (you call it "Armenian") that would not have a member like our sev_mard just because he is black. Because let's face it ... if his skin color was white, with the way he has picked up Armenian and is talking like a blbul, he would have easily fooled most of us into thinking he is from Abaran.

WOW! I love that one.

If our sev_mard wanted to switch to Armenianity, I'd be honored. We could use more like him

I am not willing to die for Armenia. Does that make me any less of an "Armenian"?

Well, then in that case Guitara, consider yourself suspended indefinitely. So far no action was taken because you seemed to be respecting the rules we have here. But since you are saying you meant all of those things you have said in other places and it doesn't make a difference to you (i.e. if you weren't talking "behind anyone's back" then that's the same as saying it in their face), as of now you are suspended for being extremeley rude, abusive, and harassing towards some of the members and the moderators here.

If I had to point out the ONE thing that I truley like(d) most about our Armenian and some of the middle eastern cultures is (was) "shnork" ... children being taught to respect others and especially elders, to show restraint when needed, and to act properly when around others. But now as I see more and more, especially in the diaspora (US is what I have in mind), these extremely "yeres arats" little kids running around thinking they are the shitz and they have all the answers. Of course this is not an "Armenian" problem but more of a product of a westernized culture that above all values the individual human rights to free speech and pursuit of happiness. Well ... free speech and the right to pursue one's own happiness is often in conflict with the types of things needed to keep a society functional. Respect for others, tolerance, understanding, sacrifice, compromise, etc all would require disciplin, restraint, and what I would classify as just plain old "shnork". Even in this forum we see little punk kids that show up running their mouths about things they have no clue about and disrespecting people that are old enough to be their fathers and even grand fathers. Sure age does not make one perfect but this trend surely can't be good in the long run ... So I ask again ... where did our shnork go? ... or it's still there and I just don't see things fully?

Why not?

Who is the one who "owns" those rights that is then "giving them" to the women?

Hye_Acher: Based on what you have said, I think after you have "reset" things, you have not installed the correct drivers for your display adapter and/or the settings are not right. Please check the following and tell us what they are set at: 1) Screen resolution 2) Adapter (driver) information 3) Screen refresh rate You can see these by doing the following: 1) Right click on your desktop and select properties (you can get to the same thing from start->settings->control panel->display) 2) Click on the settings tab at the top 3) You can see the screen resolution in the middle towards the left of that dialog 4) Click on the "advanced" button 5) Select the "adapter" tab at the top 6) You can see the adapter and driver info on this page. 7) Now select the "monitor" tab at the top 8) You can see the screen refresh rate there. If your refresh rate is 60Hz or below, that could cause blurryness as well. Mine is set at 100Hz. Note that you may have to install the correct monitor driver for what you have. Also, you didn't say anything about your monitor yet. Is it a regular big boxy monitor or one of the flat LCD monitors? How big is it? What brand? If you don't know, just say whatever is written on it like brand, model, etc and we can look it up.

That was the point. If the capture is blurry then the contents of the video frame buffer is messed up. This is highly unlikely in my opinion so it was just an exercise meant to help gevo rule out a "virus". Although technically it could be possible for a piece of software to corrupt images as they are being written to the video memory (frame buffer), I have never seen such a thing done and I think it would be rather difficult to do it on a newer windows-based machine as the driver and the kernel code space where this would have to take place are pretty well protected from intrusion.

Welcome to the board ak8081.

Who's we? Who made you the spokesperson for "us"? And are you really trying to imply with your rainbow comment that if races mix, they'll make gay babies? <_< All I know is that I don't have to be black to understand, comprehend, and have compassion for what the slaves went through. None of the blacks in the US living today really know what the slaves went through. And you yourself Guitara, don't dare to sit there in your comfy computer chair and claim to have any real idea of what our grandparents have gone through during the genocide. There are a very few that can make this claim of having experienced genocide and it's effects first hand and America-Hye might be one of them. So please, cut this I'm better than everyone else attitude and spare us the dramatic "oh you'll never understand what I have gone through" crap since you haven't been through $HIT compared to what Armos endured a 100 years ago.

First, you are saying "beside every man there is a great woman" ... well, it should be obvious that that is simply not true. Second, assuming you meant "Beside every great married man is a great woman (wife?)", I still don't agree since I am sure there are plenty of great men married to useless women. The basic idea I am trying to get accross is that men and women (married or not) do not necessarily need each other to be great as your quote is implying (or trying to imply). Swine's version is simply an ultra-feministic view of things and your version is the ultra-politically correct revision.

Gevo, that quote doesn't make much sense But I know what you meant and I still don't agree with it.

Hope you realize you are quoting a feminist slogan from the early 20th century. I personally think that is a rediculous quote for 2 reasons: 1) I don't think it is a good idea for a women to try to take credit for great men with such statements. It's the friggin 21st century. Women can be great on their own and they don't need to be behind or to the side of any man. 2) There is also no reason to belittle men by implying that their greatness is due to the women. This is just as absurd as thinking men are superior to women.

To your defense, I haven't heard all the stupid comments in the world yet.
