A Standing Ovation!!!

[hubris 1]

seriously guys why soes everything turn in to a fight? This is a very important issue - these type of changes effects everyone - some immediatly - more later - and everyone eventually.....but even if you still dont see how - have the compassion to acknowledge the impact of this on others - Compassion is a human emotion prompted by the pain of others. More vigorous than empathy, the feeling commonly gives rise to an active desire to alleviate another's suffering. Have we all really fallen so far that we no longer feel this?

Henry Ford said it best - “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.”

whowantstoknow, You know I like you but let me have a comment on this. Feelings? Ha, When you go to Washington its best to leave your feelings home. And for the point of debate which I can never really resist........Henry Ford invented the assembly line. He also invented the .10 cent an hour job. Now Im sure when he said that statement his true intent was.........To get everyone on the assembly line, working for .10 cents an hour.....in harmony......so he could make 10 million. Im sure if he was alive he wouldnt be running Ford Motor Company today with that philosophy.
I would make the arguement that his goal to bring everyone together for what appears to be a common goal is not entirely for the benefit of everyone. Hence, my now outrageous conclusion that all fisherman do not share the same goal.
But, because your cute.......its OK.

The answer to your question is very simple. It's clinical term is "Over Active Male Ego", but for this discussion let's just keep it at "ME". To those that aren't "trained " in this area, or those that have had it before, it's simply known as "diahrrea mouth". It's a very contagious, gender specific (your a girl so I wouldn't worry about catching it), phenomena. It has lead to many a ruined freindship, marrige and demise of family's as a rule. There is a cure for this phenomena, much like other social deseases (such as alcoholism, drug abuse, porn, etc....). First step would be that you have to realise and acknoledge that you have this social plague. In most cases it can be over-come with a little humility and self control. But in many sad cases the host carrier never takes the step's to cure it and takes it to his grave. This is one of those times when you can be glad you're a girl! Frank, SeaPower
