*sniff* that was so *sniff* beautiful *sniff sniff*

I was just talking about Oprah..on my last post...

nice quotes from her...

great post!

those quotes smell like dead fish

where is the passion of life, of love? the taste of smtimes silly, dangerous experiences, being madly in love without thinking about the consequences, showing the middle finger to all stupid rules of morality, one's own conscious, etc just for fun...

these r usually small episodes, but r also the spice of the whole life

Something Princess was singing last night reminded me of what makes perfect sense:

You live you learn,
You love you learn,
You cry you learn,
You lose you learn.

Perfect sense.

Gee, you think Oprah is a bit miffed with men?

Personally, my advice is to stay away from women who listen to that preachy nonsense.

OMG ur an Oprah fan too.. do you have the Oprah Mug or the Oprah T-Shirt or the Quilt that reads "I Love Oprah"

Hmmm not sure if this is the right topic to post but what the heck?

Did you know that Oprah was molested by his Father when she was young

She only realized it when she observed the way other father shows affection to their daughter is not the same as what she was receiving.

Now Oprah is a very successful woman, in all aspect of her life, except love life.

so now, cuz oprah is a super star, she's super wise, yes me too

Has that fat moooooooooooo had a sex change as well? My, she really has been through the mill!

zam wrote:Did you know that Oprah was molested by her Father when she was young

I've always been skeptical of this claim from Oprah.

Mind you, I've always been skeptical OF Oprah.
