Hmmm - i understand what you're saying here eve - and I do think that i've been at least slight misconstrued. Unfortunaltely however - I have a flu, and must get to bed. Will continue soon.... although (i can't resist) just to add one point, I don't think that comfort/contentment and passion/fire are mutually exclusive - that would be sad.

Funny I just saw Siamento's reference to food - right after I posted! I wonder if anyone else finds it disturbing that we liken our relationships to food.

Passion, excitement, thrills yes, yes, and so on... All nice things, but all relatively temporary in nature; and volotile. I've had a few intense, terribly passionate relationships in my life - and I don't regret them for a second. But they take a lot out of you, and at some point almost all your energy is consumed (for better and worse ) by the relationship. There's no more left for other pursuits, be they acadmic, career-oriented, family-oriented or other social activities. These kinds of tumultuous relations almost inevitable end the same way. The pursuit of passion and excitement needn't be at the top pf the priorities list when considering a relationship - all that will come by itself. I admire women of principle - and i'm inclined to think that you'd be upholding higher standards (and self-respect) by not being the 'other' woman. What I mean is, why should you *not* command the whole, undivided attention of your mate? Why settle to be a side-dish when you're the filet mignon? (edit - i had initially left out the *not* - it makes much more sense now )

my console unit keeps crashing I think i'll have to download another and see what I can do with that... in the meantime, I'm losing valuable folding time!

Could it be some sort of incompatibilty between win98 & the new version of real? Maybe you can get an older version to install - look here.

Couldn't say it better.

Well I wont be driving a Lambo that's for sure! I was away a few days - and now it's back to the grind. We were pretty steady at work (not too busy) the last few months, some of my projects were unceremoniously put 'on hold' - but all that's changed lately, I feel like I'm playing the gopher game at the midway (you know the one: little mechanical gohers pop up, and you have to hit them on the head with a hammer) At some point there are just too many gophers!

When sleeping clients suddenly awake, it's a bad thing. A very very bad thing. LMAO azat - I'd love to be a juror - and decide to 'set the rules' in front of the judge - I don't think the judge would take it too kindly!

1. what OS are you running? 2. have you been able to use real player in the past? 3. are you currently using other media players (windows media player, quicktime etc.) Have you tried to uninstall realplayer, download the lastes version and re-install it?

I must have missed it as well...

errr... I didn't *exactly* ask the owner of my building.... maybe I should have... but I 've checked with my satellite service provider (and the others in Canada) and no one offers TV Armenia by satellite here in Canada. If we want it , the only channels left to us are grey-market satellite cards...

Nice try Extra jan, but WAYYY off.

I did see the post the first time - but when I went to visit, there was some sort of DNS problem and the site was off-line. I never bothered to check it out again... will do soon thanks for your post.

I'll let you guys work out what TDW means.

Wow! In public like this??? I've never had an e-proposal before I must admit it's a very tempting proposition. Must I answer right away?

well well well - and here I though this thread was about sapervel vs. trashvel I used to use a straight raazor like Armen's - i had trouble keeping it sharp however (and those leather honing belts weren't so easy to find. I've tried electrics, but they burn my face - I need a wet shave, especially as my Armenian ancestry has left me with a legacy of copious amounts of facial hair growth. So razor it is for me - but sometimes sculpting around my sideburns and various croppings of beards/goatees can take some extra time. But I only shave every other day - otherwise I get bumps.

Rogers chocolates are yum-yum-yummy! Even TDW thought they were great! Oysters are my favourite weekend food. I have only recently starting noticing the difference in the various varieties - so many to choose from! Sorry to high-jack your (ego) thread Eve jan... forgive?

C'mon Domino - we've already broken the top 3000.... .... We'll get there.

I read this and instinctively had the urge to run outside and dive into a pile of leaves. Then I remembered what happened the last time I went scrunching through leaves. Let's just say that some irresponsible dog owners don't pick up (or they don't bother chasing their dog's doo doo deep into the leaves). Very stinky.

:( We Canadians pay dearly for the things we love (and that's why I don't go very often to these kinds of places). Oh, and in case you were wondering, as a general rule, wine/alcohol is only distributed through 'the government store' - and so up to three quarters of the price of alcohol is actually taxes!!

Man - Azat! You guys, your posts are making me hungry. Although I don't think I'll be getting any 900$ dinners any time soon - but I have reservations for THIS PLACE during my trip to Toronto in a couple of weeks. It promises to be delectable I'll let you guys know how I find it....

Thanks Harut - a nice and elegant explanation for those of us who have never studied Armenian grammar. Oh, and nice to see you back once in a while Sevik jan...

On monday's you mean? I hope things pick up for you...

Yeah, i know - harry potter. i was pretty surprised too. I read the first one when I was on vacation a few months ago - just to see what all the hype was about. Well, I seem to have been hooked... they're really not bad books actually - really well-told stories (excellent casual reading, kind of like watching tv )
