Lee Bollinger of Columbia University invites the president of Iran to speak at the university, and then, as an introduction, goes on a rant calling the man stupid.
Ironically, I think this event did us more harm then good as it epitomized an example of U.S. arrogance, lack of culture, and stupidity itself coming from a university that is supposed to embody the highest degrees of our culture.

know something bad is going to happen to you, or they know your not going to make it in life, they know you won't pull through your tough times?

i feel i experience this alot and i find it very depressing and i find it hard to ignore.

almost like the way people would look at a cancer patient, trying to be strong for him/her, telling them that they'll pull through....but really theres sadness evident in their eyes, because they know deep down the cancer victim won't make it.

i feel people look upon me like this to alot. iam 30 with bpd that ive been battling with for a long time, and i dont want to be looked on in this way, treated as different from everybody.

maybe their just sympathizing with my traumatic life, but it makes me feel weird, unusual and different, different from the rest.

Wen Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in April 1968, Robert F. Kennedy made an impromptu speech in Indianapolis, honouring him and calling for the US to unite together, not be divided.
And he said this:

My favorite poet was Aeschylus. He wrote: "In our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God."

I think this was very fitting for Bobby, since he had lost his brother only a few years ago and had gotten to be clsoe friends with MLK - and two months later MLK's death, Bobby was dead himself. I find it very darkly ironic thus... and it's a shame we had to lose 2 of our greatest leaders within a year.
Let me know what you think about the quote. :)

I'm sure we all have different views on the meaning of life, so what's your view on it.

This stupid lady cut me off when I was turning onto the bread isle so I sped my cart ahead of hers and cut her off... It reminded me of road rage.

Where were you born ? (Geographically) Also how old were you the first time your family moved? Have you had to move a lot or a little in your life? --- Please answer at least the first 2 of those 3 questions. (The last one is optional.) Everyone earns a thumbs up just for answering. Thanks.

I went on this blind date and the guy seems great but he's in the military! I've heard horror stories about men in the military or police officers and I tell you it's not pretty. Once he told me that I've been avoiding him . Well he's called me and left me messages. Am I overeating or am I doing the right thing?

I'm actually being serious. This has happened to me an untold amount of times in the last two years.

It happened again just now when I just went to the shop across the road!

I don't care if they don't mean any harm - it bothers me a lot!
Why do they do it?!

Sometimes I feel like I never want to go out again. At least not alone anyway.
I don't know what to do about this.
