    JB: I don't think they will. Bridges collpase when they are not fixed and inspected properly. Or when people make complaints and they are not listened to.

    You would think city officials would take it as a warning sign when pieces of a bridge start falling off. Or holes just keep getting bigger.

    Same thing happened in Montreal last year.

    There are quite a few languages that use the latin alphabet that have letters couple with other letters that create sounds different from both letters.

     

    Look at the Spanish usage of I and L to make a Jah sound or how Gaelic and Welsh are structured in the Latin alphabet.

    "In the 1960s, when most African countries gained their independence, they had higher average incomes and better public services than most Asian countries. Kenyans lived better than Malaysians; people in the Ivory Coast were richer than South Koreans; Zimbabweans were healthier, longer-lived and better-educated than the Chinese. And there were more and worse wars in Asia than in Africa."

     

    This a a qoute from Now magazine about the questions in creating an African Union ( that is similiar to the European Union)

    I have a friend who has a rat. Her mom has rats.

    And she kinda looks like one. She is a nice person,

    but 50 % of conversation she starts has to do with her rat or her mom's rat. She is always talking about the rats. Which drives me crazy.

     

    So to get her back I started taking pictures of my cat when he is cleaning his genitals. And every time she talks about the rats to me

    I send her pictures of my cat licking his bum.

    I don't understand the fat hating. I love my fat friends they give the best hugs! it's like being hugged by a plush bear that is over 5 feet tall.

     

    weightloss suggestions: become a vegetarian or vegan you melt 10-15 lbs... I kid you not.

    I am not as militant as I used to be, but every once in a while I will attempt to convert a meat eater.

    I think I am weird.

    For some reason I don't find senseless beatings or videos of senseless beating funny.

    I always feel left out when people around me are holding their sides and laughing so hard at someone getting their ribs broken by someone else stepping and kicking them and getting kicked in the head.

    I want to see the humour soo badly, I want to fit in soo badly.....

    Okay back to the topic.

    In American Slang refering to your spouse or common law partner as " my old man" and "my old lady" has been around since the 50s.

    I saw the most awesome shirt today!

     

    This woman was wearing a white shirt with a picture of a green stegasauros wearing a white shirt. And on the shirt of the green stegasauros read: " all my friends are dead!"

    There are many 15-20something girls that go to school and work part time and bring in a second or third income to the family even if they don't live on their own. And there are many 16 year olds that do live on their own, but support their family. And not summer jobs either PART TIME that is decent wages.
