If you believed that, you would have to say that beliefs can never be formed because there is always the possibility of new information being found and, thus, you have no opinion on anything. Like I could easily beleive you are a | troll and killfile you but you might surprise me even yet. I think you know better; otherwise, you would have killfiled me and wouldn't waste your time replying to my posts. | | > | How did the Remembrance day people force you to go and photograph them? | > Don't be silly. I took the photos because I wanted to. | | Why? You described the scene as not something you enjoyed doing so why did you | go and take photographs, I take photographs to record and to study. It doesn't have anything to do with my enjoyment of what I'm looking at; I enjoy taking the photographs. and then why did you come and complain to us about the | event? You should be asking why I contributed related comment to a thread. Oops, sorry. Guess that would be a stupid question, wouldn't it? | | > | Why shouldn't the bar owners earn money? | > I never said, or even implied that they shouldn't, but it's one of their | > most profitable days of the year. Fact. | | So? Think of the taxes they will now pay to keep feral cave dwellers in the | manner to which they have become accustomed, and rejoice for the feral cave | dwellers are your friends. I'd sure like to have some of what *you* are smoking! | | > Aren't you going to earn money from | > | the photographs you took? | > Photography is merely my hobby, and I take pictures of all kinds of things. | > I wasn't planning on making any money... unless of course you'd be | > interested in purchasing some. <g> | | Not till you've got that hair problem sorted out and even then you would have | to pay me to buy one.

They could always relocate the | company to Fiji so they could watch rugby being played by one of the teams that | kicked your team into touch, for example. And your point is.....? | | > Is English your second language | > and you're not comfortable with its nuances? That *would* explain some of | > our misunderstandings. | | Listen, you must understand that it is *English* i.e *our* language that we so | kindly allowed you to use so that you could be civilised. It is *you* who | changes the spellings of words because the nuances were too difficult for you. Fine. English is our language, but I can't accept that it is our use of it that civilized us (I thought it had more to do with the internal combustion engine). And, of which words do I change the spelling? | You are so lucky that we didn't let you get over-run by those Frogs who would | have made you speak their language. My mother didn't care which language (French or English) was spoken. Too bad that Gaelic is almost lost; it's a beautiful language, especially in song. You should be eternally grateful to us for | giving you our language, you know. Okay, I'll believe you that English isn't your second language, but you've got a real problem with pronouns. | | > I have lived here; most still passionately despise the "Krauts, Commies, | > Nazis, Jews, Chinks, Gooks, Slants, Ragheads" etc. etc. I don't know if that | > deep hatred comes from fear or what, but I have never seen that kind of | > hatred in those who have not had the experience of "bravely fighting for | > their country". I'm certain there's a connection. | | But I explained that and Cody thanked me. Did you think I was making it up? Making *what* up??? You said you were talking to Cody, and I don't think I read the post/s. <snip the stuff meant for someone else> | | > So you're offering me 30 pieces of silver for my photos? Cool!

Guess that line is synonomous with "I painted myself into a corner so I'll just have to wait for the paint to dry." Or are you showing signs of a sense of humour? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Waterspider
