In Armenia, unlawful detainment is just another means for the (underpaid) police/justice system to extract money from the population.

THOTH, eating your words yet?

I dont drink beer much these days, even when I go out, its always 'bourbon & coke' or cocktails. But I really recommend you guys try a Corona with some lime juice and a lemon: very nice (prob my favourite beer at this time)

WHOA! - This is looking very promising.....better get on the phone then. http://www.cro-bar.com.au/Gallery/200903/euro-inside.jpg

If he was trying to pass as anyone, it would be American. Why else would he be quoting/proud of an imbicile like Patton? Sip, he isnt the only one who thinks that way, and I only bought it up because of what you were saying in the other thread: a half-Armo half-Black being part of an imaginery American community

Thats your fellow American for you Sip, and you call it a 'community' BS!

I was referring to Glens post: its inflamatory

We had someone better - Bagramian. Besides, Patten was an imbecile, like yourself. PS. Moderators, his post should be deleted..... --- Bet Hagarag thinks the same about all yours --Sip

Yes Sip....an American......a citizen of the world/universe, we are far from this am afraid.

Physical violence is certainly inexcusable, but a woman can really get on ones nerves sometimes. Im not married (and dont have a g/f), but sometimes my friends g/fs get to me. Usually I let it go (ie. dont say anything), but on some occasions I have been very close to (verbally) lashing out.

My father once said to me (along the lines of): "I have bought you up to respect all people older than yourself, and you do. But I may have been wrong to have done that, some people simply dont deserve any respect!"

....ahahahahahahahah!

....whats the half-Armo half-Black kid going to do when he is rejected by both communities? These days being a kid/teenager is hard enough, it doesnt need to get any more complicated.... ....bruin and coco put it pretty well IMO.

I guess it all depends on the priest: but yeah, we got a lot of help. And we met this Russian family who migrated a few months earlier. Father was Russian, mother was 50/50 Russian/Armenian (though she didnt look anything Armenian), and they got the same deal from our church.... I also know a number of families who sent their kids to a private Armenian School, in Sydney. Couldnt afford the fees, so they didnt pay, or payed whatever they could afford. This is a normal school (not a sunday school), and being private did not recieve any financial assistance from the government (untill last few years - change in laws).

I was referring to the Armenian Church. I dont know what its like in the States, but they helped us a lot when we first arrived here. How does free accomodation (for a couple weeks at the church) and 90% of our house supplies (furniture, cutlery, white goods (fridge)) when we moved out sound - all organised by the priest. And we werent the only ones who were helped out. I doubt the Armenian Church in Australia has vast assets to finance all this, and dont think they would be getting any financial aid from overseas: in fact there were regular collections at the Church to help out the earthquake victims. All charities are a 'business', because at the end of the day they deal with money.

Azat, if people dont donate: what are the priests going to eat? how are churches going to be built and maintained? Will you volunteer your time? And as for 'God doesnt exist, no need for churches...bla bla bla', I suggest you prove this to yourself first by not going to church....after all, its a waste of time and money.

Let em have it Gams! Bau!

Hey man! I still dont know what half the acronyms for the positions stand for, and still not sure on the scoring system, I need all the help I can get

Is DTD (Day-To-Day) allright to play?

LMAO! [sinister voice] Yes khodja, soon, we the conservatives will take over the world, and your gonna be the first to be sacrificed to our gods. Opposition is futile. Surrender or die! [/sinister voice] [sinister laughter] [sinister laughter]

You dont have to be first Roman Catholic to become Protestant. Its basically another branch of Christianity started by Luther in the late Middle Ages (cant remmember exact year). I think the first Protestant Armenians were converted by German missionaries operating in the Ottoman Empire early 20th Century. Not sure on this one though....

Yeah, me too. But you gotto bribe me first: a bottle of Black Label will do.......no, no I aint settlin for Red.

LMAO at those profiles....fortunatelly we dont have such a problem here. No sizable black community here, and no-one in their right state of mind would try to immitate aboriginies - LOL. Actually not the hard: drink lots of methylated spirits, beat wife/gf, live in tent/ghetto etc. Their lifestyle isnt glorified like the blacks in the States.

I was in Armenia just over a month ago. I dont see a problem with younger women (older teens) following fashion trends, but sometimes it is pretty bad, with 10-14 year olds wearing 'revealing' clothes and they havnt reached puberty yet . Armenia really is a land of contrasts.
