It is like no others - very large, black cast iron with two knobbs on each side for easy hanging; they are not like the ones you would feed a chain through, the pot would just set on the chain and hang. You can see where at one time there were three legs on the bottom. I am interested in the history of these picticular cauldrons. If you might know anything about them or a web address I may go to learn more about this kind please let me know. Thanks

The problem is I am EXTREMELY lazy! My parents havn't helped at all either. They've babied me since day1. I always got what I wanted and I would ask for things for school at the last minute like projects and bake sale stuff and such and it was mom to the rescue. I sleep in until the late hours of the morning. I was on the honor roll all year with an 87 gpa. My mom says that adds up to about a 3.8 gpa for college. But because I am extremely lazy I do not know the meaning of work. Yes I do have a job at a grocery store but I do not work very hard there and get almost no hours. I have always made it through life with just the bare minimum. But my main problem is sleep. I try to go to bed around 10ish and then I TRY to wakeup at 6 but I just go back to sleep and miss everything. I sleep through all my alarms. I need some ideas on how to wake up early and get through the day. Once I'm awake I always fall back to sleep and miss a lot of things. I need to learn how to wake up and stay awake.

Sadly, I've found that most of the black guys I've hung around with have no sense of purpose or direction in their lives, and knowing what one plans to do with one's life is one of the main things I look for in a man. Also, I hate to be stereotypical, but I find most of the black men I've been around to be rather...loud. And vulgar. And obnoxious.
I know that's the exception and not the rule, but I'm kind of running out of hope here. Where have all the good black men gone?

China is a bad place I think that they should be culled
How dare they kill all those innocent dogs what gives those savages the right ....How evil
if i were walking down the street and they tried to take my dog away from me and clobber my baby(dog)to death .I would break their ugly ignorant necks and fight to the death.
PS> only the dog murders should be exterminated and anyone evil enough to agree with them...........people are the ones who spreaded the diseases in the first place!

It seems like every smoker I know just throws what's left of their cigarettes out their car windows or drops them on the curb. If it were anything else, it'd be considered littering. Why is this considered okay, or, at the very least, why do you smokers do it instead of finding an ashtray?

so it's becoming clear that I'll never really be superhealthy and thin, so I figure why not do something I can be good at? I figure if I really put some effort into it, I could probably get in the guiness book of world records for heaviest man ever. gaining weight is something I've always been good at lol. and it'd be kind of cool to be numero uno.

Do you find it depressing that even a highly intelligent man chooses to marry a woman like Marilyn (if he has the chance!), rather than a less beautiful woman who is his intellectual equal?
Einstein, too...he divorced his first wife--the one who had intellectual ambitions--and married a comparatively simple woman who cooked and cleaned for him. He slept around with young women on the side.
Also, I read about a study that found that men who score well on IQ tests have, on average, better-looking wives than men of average intelligence. The article said that the higher a man's IQ, the better looking his wife will be.
Isn't it all depressing?

I asked this question in the Women's Studies section yesterday, and I was wondering if it would receive responses of a different tone if I asked it again in a different category.

By the way, I'm not suggesting that Marilyn was stupid. However, their marriage was publicized as the union of beauty and brains.

My boyfriend is from a country where, although not as common, still seems to hold onto the idea that women take care of the family, make dinner, and take on more of the home care burden then the men. Every now and then we'll fight because our place is a disordered. The reason we fight is because he always makes comments about me being American in regards to what he (I think) secretly believes are women's roles in the home. When he brings it up he talks to me like I should know this, and is flabbergasted that I do not. I feel like he's trying to parent me sometimes. He makes comments for instance that since I was basically raised by my Dad, I must not have learned how to clean or take care of the home. Wish he was a fly on the wall, because my Dad was strict about chores. I also did not pay to live there, so I had to help out! My philosophy is that if you make the mess, you clean it. I'm not his mother. That usually makes him more angry, but I grew up learning to be independent and taking care of my own messes! How do I tell him that this is my way, American or not.
