Sip

No one is saying US is perfect. We are just saying your claims that it is more corrupt or most corrupt or even too corrupt is just EXTREMELY rediculous. Anyway ... back to work for me.

Next time you get a speeding ticket ... I dare you to try to slip some money to the judge to dismiss your ticket. Or don't even wait till then ... just try to slip the cop who is writing you the ticket some money. Next time one of your family members needs a permit to add a room to his house ... go down to the wherever it is they give out permits and see if your theory of "money buys everything" works like it used to work in your beloved soviet How can you possibly claim US is more "corrupt" and expect ANYONE to take you seriously other than other disillusioned commie comrads?

"the truth" |<------------------------------------- light years ----------------------------------------->| "Piggy"

Once again it shows how absolutely spoiled to the core you are! I grew up in Iran ... we left when I was 13. Ever since I remember there was a war going on. Every so often, we had bombs and missiles dropped on our heads in Tehran. One of those misiles landed about a block from our house. One landed in the University where my Dad was teaching ... fortunately at 4AM. My mom was under constant harassement because she was a christian female doctor and wasn't technically allowed to treat male patients. We had to picket in front of our "Armenian" school to let the dumb ass government allow us to keep the schools going and not be forced to teach "Arabic" (i.e. Koran) more than 2 hours a week ... what was the price? The price was that our Armenian classes were cut from 2 hours a day to 2 hours a week as well. We had weekly and monthly "bomb" drills just like you have your woosy fire drills once in a while here. We were thought how what to do in case of a chemical attack ... mostly for our morale as there is nothing much you can do. There was no music, no movies, no dancing, NOTHING on TV other than what the government deemed appropriate ... which most often included a bunch of mullahs sitting around and interpretting the Koran. You think I was able to "go out on the streets"? You think my parents would allow a young christian minority kid to go and hang around with the street "lakots"? I am not even going to start on doing homework in the dark under a candle due to constant power outages ... no running water at times ... having to stand hours in line to buy bread ... meat if lucky other than the rations each family was being assigned etc etc DUDE ... what childhood? ... Grow the f*ck up.

Well, if you are going to get bent outa shape for what the likes of Piggy tell you, then you might be better off closing yourself off from the world. The world is FULL of immature kids like him. As far as what Stormy is saying, she has a point ... Armo just take it easy and take your own advice ... just ignore the "piggy's" of the world and you'll live longer

But it's not just the "toys". It's being rewarded for efforts ... it's having a reason to excel and be good at something ... it's the entire "potential" that exists to make AMAZING things happen... to basically go from 0 (which is basically where we started as a family when we arrived in the US in early 90's) to something a lot more.

You comrads should wake up and realize that dreaming of "USSR" is living in the past. It was a nice try but it was a total failure so get used to it and move on.

Well, the thread is gone

What does that even mean? Why don't you throw your computer and TV out the window? Or better yet, why don't you donate it to some poor kid in Armenian who would LOVE to be in your place?

xxSipanxx ... THIS is what I think of your last two posts. Their level of crappitude is sooooo much, that I don't even know where to begin. http://armenians.com/forum/style_images/1/icon8.gif http://armenians.com/forum/style_images/1/icon8.gif... and of course those people know what is really going on in America as opposed to the ones who are actually here? http://armenians.com/forum/style_images/1/icon8.gif I rather be a "sorry" American Armenian than ANYTHING else in this world right now.

Thanks Fadiushka!!! That's a pretty cool find

The NEXT internet celebrity KID ... LMAO

Thanks to stupid "Real" (that I hate also by the way), there is no straight forward way as they try to keep their technology very private ... that's why they suck and no one cares about them anymore. However, there is an easy solution to your problem. Set your audiocard mixer to record from the WAV output. Using the standard windows mixer, you can go to options, properties, and in there you can pick recording source. Then set volume levels to about 50% ... play your RM file while recording using windows recorder into a WAV file. Convert wav file to mp3

HERE's a start. The other one you can immediately explore, although I haven't played much with it, MS Narrator under XP (not sure about 2000)... start->programs->accessories->accesiblity->narrator

Beauty of an e-book is that you can theoretically use text-to-speech software I haven't tried any e-books though.

OK this thread is done.

Armo I'll make your job easier ... let them put the fatwa on me ... I still think US was right in going into Iraq. We should have taken care of Sadam long ago.

Armo, don't get yourself worked up over Dan. That's just his style to go around push people's buttons and then throw "debating rules" at them. And as far as American haters ... yah .. unfortunately people tend to believe Al Jazira-style propaganda a lot more than CNN propaganda. Just a fact of life ...

How?

Which war?

How do you know what it's like? Why do you chose to believe propaganda from Al Jazira and not propaganda from CNN? At least Piggy is not listening to any of them. Why do you pick sides here? You really think you know what's going on for real?

Dan, please don't start again with the "debating rules" If you are going to play this game, then I'm going to test your Arabic because it sounded like you were defending the Iraqi's for a moment. Just because you are taking a few english classes doesn't make you "better" than us. Now stop fighting and start "debating" as you call it.

Are you sure you're not French?

But who asked it?
