how do you learn more: by good example and attitudes or by people who give you hard time?
Do you think that we should learn in positive way or should we be punished by bosses or lovers or friends to 'learn our lesson well'?

No matter how extravagant the gift. Also, if you get a card do you get kinda bummed if no message is written in the card, just signed?

USA used to be fearful of communism ... now we're almost comunists.

Hippies hated authority, but grew up to be politicians.

Childreen argue with parents, and say, "I'll never treat my kids that way", but end up growing up and then saying "Oh, my God, I've become my parents".

nobody likes pain. However, some people think that pain is the best teacher and healer of our body and mind?
Or pain is just result of sickness and we should avoid it?

DISCLAIMER:
The following pertains to African Americans (AA) who are NOT recent immigrants from Africa or descendents of recent immigrants from Africa (recent meaning anytime in AT LEAST the last century).

The question is simple; do you or do you not agree with the following theory:
Let's set aside all political correctness and society's "need" to not stereotype--because all stereotypes are based on some truth.
Generally speaking, I have seen many more physically fit, young AA males than unfit, young AA males. I'm sure many of you have too. The ratio of fit to unfit AA males I think is greater than that of any other race in the US (caucasian, hispanic, asian, etc.)
This leads me to propose AA's have a genetic advantage in their physical structure that resulted from a process of natural selection in the colonial days.
Think about it. Only the physically strongest and toughest could survive the long journey from Africa to US and YEARS of slave labor. The weak slaves were...

Lovely soul stirring stuff.



A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together

to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned

into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests

coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large

pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass,

crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite -

telling them to help themselves to hot coffee.



When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor

said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups
were

taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but

normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the

source of your problems and stress.



What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you

consciously went for the best cups and were eyeing each other's
cups.



Now if life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society

are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but
the

quality of Life doesn't change. Some times, by concentrating only
on

the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it."



So, don't let the cups drive you... enjoy the coffee instead.

Actually the hyperinflation started a long time ago and only recently feeding back into prices (see exploding gap between nominal GDP/income vs. M3/debt):

do we have some wiser thing to do that just asking and answering question? Should we work more or go out more? We are just sitting in the front of monitor and spend our precious time?
Do you think that such time is well-spent?
