Cultures & Groups - 22 November 2007

It is ta announce that my Laird MacTealc has at last summoned all that kept his sporran stiff and made me an honest woman! He has bestowed upon me his name and his title and all that he holds dear under his kilt!
He would have been the one to impart this news to you but for the fact that the hunter is hunted - and no sooner would his post be here - than it would be gone. So he begs that you join him and I in lifting a glass to the friends and our virtual family who have been so significant in the oft rough run course of our union! Too many names to mention - but all of you fed and tended our imaginations that led to this moment.
We will be leaving to live in a new place - far from the unhappy souls that have caused such vexation to all our spirits - should you wish to join us - our new home has many rooms - please show your interest and we will be happy to invite you to join us ................ in a wee while. For MacTealc has business to attend to first!!

ok so im watching something on TV about serial killers of which only one can be defined as a homosexual serial killer - Dahlmer .... yes gacy raped and killed men and boys but he also married twice and fatherd two children which would indicate he was bisexual.

The majority of serial killers admit to being abused - 72% suffered physical abuse 42% pshycological abuse and 43% sexual abuse.

my question is, does anyone know of any other homosexual serial killer. And also should be be worried that with abuse rates of children (sexually physically and emotionally) growing exponentially, should we be concerned that more serial killers will surface in the future and if so how can we prevent the abused children of today become serial killers of tomorrow?

I have three teenage grand daughters, and last year bought the middle one a digital radio. She is 15 and has recently discovered BBC Radio 7 and Tony Hancock. She is completely hooked, just as I was at her age, and now her sisters are listening too.

Does anyone else have younger family members with unlikely enthusiasms ?

Am I old enough to yell at the kids and their darned music? Is dressing in a too small robe and boxers now acceptable? How many days should I go without shaving before it changes from grubby old man to distinguished bearded gentleman? Happy Thanksgiving!

JOHN: Some research has indicated that people with certain names tend to have certain attributes. For example, in many instances girls named Faith like religion, and boys named Archie like architecture.

TOM: And people named Neal like to give b-j's (term for oral sex).

A variant of this was told on a podcast I heard recently. So how homophobic is this joke, in US culture?

well essentially im married to an east indian and like all east indian men he believes that men are the boss and women are just arnd to cook food and make babies. I would like to wear the pants in my relationship and a friend of mine suggested that if i turned the tables and i made him feel like a woman i could possibly change his mindset. Since he is east indian he isnt a very big guy and i can generally easily overpower him so when i want to i can make things work my way in the bedroom. I actually wanted to know from any women who have done this, whether it phsycologically affects a guy in a way that he will eventually become more subserviant to you. I want him to humiliate him so he will no longer think of me as the submissive partner who just allows him to act like a chauvanistic man. any suggetions on what i should make him wear and what i should say to him would be appriciated. i was thinking of putting him in a sari since it is the traditional dress for women in his country

Did you all know that schools throw out pounds of good food every day. It is so sad to see all the food that is left over throw out in the garbage each and every day. The schools have a policy that prohibits any one from taking any of the food home or giving it away to anyone. They would rather throw the good food in the garbage than give it to someone that could use it. I have seen steak fingers, pig in the blankets, turkey, ham, green beans, corn, sandwiches, dressing, whole cakes, brownies, cookies, etc. get throw in the trash. I am talking about gallons of good food being thrown out each day.

I think of all the people out there that are straving when I see all that food being thrown out. I was always taught NOT to waste food when I was growing up. Then I see the schools wasting all that good food. I think it is really sad.

Do you think that such a man, who caused so much damage to the original inhabitants of this land should be memorialized this way?

My friend has a disability and finds it hard to find places she can go on family days out where she knows her needs will be met (disabled toilets, parking etc). I know of a great website which can help people to find out more about attractions which are accessible, I'd be interested to know if this site would be of benefit to others... Please take a look, it's www.getaboutmobility.co.uk
