Cultures & Groups - 23 December 2007

As a 49 year year old it bring me hope for the future, and should bring hope to all ladies in their middle years. Men are getting more, how can I put it? and what word can I use energy. A 91 year old lady in Scotland, got for her Christmas from her 92 year old husband, the wonderful gift of a pair of crotchless panties.

Do you have more trouble being around a person with:
a) a physical deformity like a red birthmark or a missing hand?
b) a speech problem, like stuttering?
c) a developmental delay, like mental retardation or autism?
d) an attitude problem, such as arrogance, being obnoxious, or being uncooperative with the group you work or play with?

I am wondering if people have more dislike of others if they feel the problem is "in their control", like attitude, as opposed to something the other person obviously can't help.

I didn't.

But I have wrung out of MacTealc crumbs of information about the gift that he has for me for Christmas!

So far the scant information has me almost jumping up and down for joy - something that is not dignified in a well built lady of my age!

See if you agree with me as to what it might be .........
he tells me that it is substantial, easy to keep, admired by many, used to being free and out in the open under minimum cover, responds to kindness and petting - and this is the clincher ......... is a pleasure to ride!

IT IS - ISN'T IT!

HE HAS GOT ME MY VERY FIRST PONY!!

Yippee! Dreams do come true at Christmas!

I answered with this question when I thought someone asked this question, turns out she asked plans for New Years eve:

I've a 4 year old to "try" to get to bed by 2100. Then I have to finish wrapping his last minute gifts and get them quietly placed under the tree. He wakes up very early these days asking me if Santa came yet. This year is his first year impatiently waiting for Santa to arrive so it is very exciting. Can't wait to see his face in the morning. I'm also going to place a few christmas lights up inside the house. Having a child changes everything. I'm excited for him.

What are your plans for Christmas Eve?

Has anyone here chose to be alone all their lives with their disability--meaning never to marry someone? And if you choose to be alone and unmarried is it due to your disability?
Do you tell others?

I have arthritis, depression with it, and bad nerves, and cannot have children due to many problems, so as a result will not marry, but many people find it odd as I seem in good health, pretty (they say so) and they say I am nice and kind and should find a mate, but my decision is no.

A little while ago someone posted a question asking whether any senior citizens planned to improve their educations through online sources.

I read a lot of QA over in the astronomy section. After I considered the question a bit I visited Astronomy to reassure myself online information sources allow us to really do some serious learning.

Here are a couple of questions that jumped out at me:

"Why are objects tilted when I look through the eyepiece on my telescope?"

"Are the planets in space like earth as far as having a cold North Pole and Hot South Pole?"

Good for a laugh or two this cold night. And the first one has a lot of potential for deep philosophic ponderings tomorrow while I try to build up the will-power to get out from under the covers.

Shouldn't anyone who can answer that second question be awarded an online degree?

I have just contacted my manager and he says that he will be able to produce my new cereal. I have invested my life-savings in it. It comes out on 2/32/07.

All the years I paid into Social Security I figured it would never last until I could draw a nickle of it. When, to my surprise, it did a couple of years ago it came at a time when I really needed it.

Gratefully, the wisdom of my youthful preference to not have to pay in was not an option.

But I still have a strong suspicion Social Security will go away a long while before I do, and before I get the dollar amount [without interest] that I paid in.

If I'm correct about that, and someone somewhere probably knows the answer, seems to me young people today are justified in being indignant about having to pay it.

But it was always a Ponzi scheme, and the entire shebang will fall apart unless a steadily increasing pool of youngsters pay into it to keep my check coming?

Is there something flawed in my reasoning on this?

I'd appreciate only serious answers to this. Not joking about
asking for a new car or something out of reach. Many people
will have a poor Christmas this year, and sales are down
nation wide. I heard on the news, they expect more customers
after Christmas, than before.
