Chocs, my fiancee would kill me if she found out I had been getting PMs on DF from strange women!

zonker

I am no one's toy boy Chocs!
So is that what you were fishing for when you sent me those PMs?

Sorry to disappoint!

LOL BM needs a bog and a bucket - all a bit tragic really. No fishing Zonker, I merely told ytou not to feed the troll, but clearly you feed her ALOT. No details please, the mind boggles far too much. You've probably got a rather narrow mind Chocs, that's why it "boggles" so much! A frien...

Well I was in Dubai for a while, basically to be near to my parents in Pakistan, about 3 hours flying. I left way back in 2005. Enjoyed it, and had a good time there. And no I wasn't drawing a salary of AED4000, in case some are wondering. And commenting negatively on my Paki nationality is NOT alri...

This is so shameful!
Someone should find a way to remove it.
Its an obscenity that should not be allowed to remain on DF for long!

So the heading of this topic may sound out of place, considering what we have been witness to over the last few days. After the major earthquake, the after-shocks are still being felt. It is unfortunate that no lessons appear to have been learnt. That is how it will always be. Isn’t this how planet ...

In all honesty Zonker, it seems easier for many to be nasty than it is to be nice. Which myself I don't really understand. Chocs, I would have to agree with you there, and its a really sad reflection on human-kind as well as the wider Universe, and the whole concept of a benevolent god or whatever....

@ Thanks Kanelli for liking. However, as BM pointed out, I wanted to stress the "LOVE" more here. If only we could let go of the bitterness, turn over a new page and start afresh. @Sharp: Pleased to meet you! Are you saying you are in love? Good if you are! I know the feeling! And another ...

Well, it has been raining today, and I was up early. I was entering a building and noticed this elderly couple that I passed on the way, so I held the door for them and waited about 30 seconds for them to arrive, with some impatience I have to admit at their slow progress. When they arrived, the man...

Just goes to show... everybody dies, sooner or later.

Now thats an interesting dilemma BM!! It reminds me of a time when I was in someone's marriage celebrations a long time ago; lots of drinking and drunk people. I saw one of the younger guys p.i.s.s in one of the empty beer bottles and place it on the bar! :shock: I saw another macho type guy, who ha...

Further translation from the quoted Rehman Baba's poetry:
"Each tree bears its own fruit; I have never seen a pomegranate growing in a lemon tree."!

I derive my inspiration from the Spirits BM

The smell of wee can be quite disorientating at times!

Your question can only be answered fully by Emiratis. I don’t think there are enough of them on DF to produce a consensus. I worked for some time in Dubai, and I didn’t feel any discrimination against me; frankly, I was treated rather well. I got the impression, by interacting with many Emiratis in ...

zonker

BM, you've got it wrong I am afraid! I dont dislike the Emiratis. But I dont particularly look up to them because of their wealth. I do like the vision of the people that made Dubai what it is. And that was not just the Emiratis! The blood, sweat, and tears (to quote one of your leaders) of many Nat...

Thank you BM. Those are stirring words!
As it turns out, you are my favourite DFer

Kanelli, people are like vintage wine. Once you develop a taste for it you just love it!

zonker

BM, thats what happens when they do Research In Motion! They tripped.
They have lied about it, it is rumoured, perhaps they fired the wrong IT guys in their company!

The rumour is that its a VIRUS, and its spreading!

And yes, I am affected.

I've never heard of a Centura. Is that an Australian car? Was that like a Holden, which I know is Australian.

zonker

I do like cars BM, ever since I discovered they are a lot easier to handle than women.
Even the worst of them.

And thanks for that picture of Daisy Dukes shorts: aren't they a little old and frayed? Surely she is not passing them off as new??

Nick Bostrom, a Physicist and Philosopher, is a Swede and heads the Future of Humanity Project in Oxford University, England. A few years ago, he wrote a rather interesting paper which he called “The Simulation Hypothesis”. This produced a lot of animated discussion and controversy in the scientific...

No glitch there Shaf. It was deliberate. Considering the amount of repetitiveness about religion swirling around on DF, on a daily and hourly basis, I wanted to add a little counterbalance from my side. To add variety, if nothing else, otherwise it gets so dull reading the same things over and over....

It's a useful analogy when answering the old question 'can God make a rock so heave He can't lift it?' - well, can a programmer make a rock in the sim so heavy he can't lift it? Well, the programmer does not exist physically in the programme and is not bound by the 'physics' he programmed into the ...

I also believe in science and the scientific method. I believe in rationality and logic...... Cheers, Shafique Thats the problem Shaf. How do you reconcile religion with those qualities of logic and rationality you have mentioned? I know Prof Salam who was a Nuclear Physicist and a Nobel Laureate; ...

zonker

Shaf, using scientific method , rationality and logic, nobody has so far been able to prove that there is a creator of the Universe! That discovery would be BIG News one way or the other. All that we have are the religious books, ancient texts talking about god. Leave alone a creator that has been c...

And I thought you said you were a believer in the Scientific Method :shock: I am a great believer in it. I dont think there is any other way of discovering the truth. However, it is painstaking and at times, after years of research, you might find that you were on the wrong tract, and then you have ...

2+3 could also equal 10. ;) (There are I0 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't) But seriously, given that 99% of the knowledge is unknown, I find it odd to not have a view on the 99% of the yet to be proven/discovered aspects of knowledge. Indeed, having a v...
