Shanna replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'What do women want?'""I think that is why gays, especially women, get on so well,they understand the others thinking - no contest."
Not always so. I've dated women all my life and have a wife of 9 years. Women can be the most passive aggressive creatures…"

Simon Paynton replied to Shanna's discussion 'I Don't Mean to Offend. I Am Smart But..Help Me Out'"Barry - I'm starting to see how Deepak Chokra can have value.

I would like to post a conversation I just had on Google+. I understand how my statements may sound offensive but I see things as I see it. My opinion is not unheard of but I am not saying it is fact. However, my issue really isnt about what I said it is about the response it received from a guy who didn't like what I said but posted his opinions. I don't understand them and I was wondering if someone could explain what he means by his definition of consciousness and "objective…

David Tyree, former NY Giant Super Bowl Champion, perpetrated the stereotype of the dumb jock. NY is voting on Gay Marriage and he has decided stick his opinion in the universe. Don’t get me wrong. I have my opinions as well. If you got something to say fucking, say it. But bring some facts with you. You can believe in the fucking tooth fairy and think those who do not will eventually destroy society that is fine but bring your facts, Moron! Check out his CNN interview:… Continue

Now if he can learn to dress and undress himself (besides fully achieving “pottiness”) like the other children he will be on his way. I was so worried about how to teach him to do certain things mainly the basics such as manners, dressing, socializing, but I'm discovering he is learning from the herd. Ah, yes, learning from the herd. The herd comes by any…

I just finished an interesting conversation with my Grandmother. I had pondered going to visit my side of the family for the holidays. I was recently diagnosis with Tourettes Syndrome and OCD. Just extra craziness to add to my mentally insane resume. I finally got the “balls” to call her and tell her what’s going on. Now, I consider my grandmother to be the most liberal woman in our family besides my Dad‘s sister who is a champion farter and the most… Continue
