Is white a race?

No, “white” is not a race. White is another word for Europeans who make up a small part of the Caucasian race (honkey).

Is black a race for that matter?
Black is not a race but it refers to the Negroid race (Some including some Africans would like to change this one to Congoid, referring to the Congolese river basin in Africa).

I expected to be placed in an air force combat position such as security police, forward air control, pararescue or E.O.D. I would have liked dog handler. I had heard about the dog Nemo and was highly impressed. “SFB” is sad I didn’t end up in E.O.D.

Is tiger woods assO? I don’t see any real evidence. He did not do anything that most men would not do if they could. He would only be an assO if his intentions were to cause his wife pain. It appears to me that men are genetically programmed to stray. I would advise women not to dump their husband the first time it happens otherwise they run a rise of dying alone unless they happens to marry a highly intelligent and lucky man.

That is the biggest steaming pile of shite I have read on here since I started using the ignore function. :loon

Speak for yourself by all means Lib but please do not presume to speak for the rest of us.

I have to agree with Sean on this one.

For your sake Lib, I hope your wife doesn't read this board...

If she does, I would suggest wearing a helmet and a cup....

Sean, I am not speaking for you and perhaps I am wrong; I never claimed to be infallible, but that is my observation. And I ask you what are the three things that breaks up most marriages?

I don't believe that most men who are married would go out and have sex with other women just because they can.

The truth is that any married man can have sex outside of marriage. That doesn't mean that we all will do it. In fact, the ones that do are being assholes.

Jim my wife I have no secrets and she knows that I am capable of separating my personal life from my intellectual curiosity. We have been married for forty years and one of the reasons for that is we have almost always been totally honest with each other. At this point in my life I am just about beyond such things, and I would not have a girl friend unless my wife agreed. The idea lying and slipping around is not appealing to me; I hate liars and don’t want to hate myself. I freely admit that I am not typical, average or perhaps even normal but what else would one expect from such a horrid childhood. If you don’t believe me I will put my wife on to confirm it.

I know Gob would never cheat on me. It is just not something that he would seriously consider doing .... ever.

But that's cool. He also knows that I would never cheat on him ... ever.

This is something that would never happen.

You may as well ask him when he is going to start flying unassisted by any machine, equipment or gliding device, or even plying golf. Because that won't happen either ... ever.
Bah!

It's not the "intellectual" curiosity that I would thing would be the problem, Lib....

It would be the physical curiosity....

Now that's an interesting statement....and I just have to ask...

Is this a subject you have broached with you wife?

I believe you for two reason: For one it appears to me that you guys are deeply in love and two for the most part you all are beyond the age foolishness that effects most people.

Well thanks for that Liberty. But are you now saying that older people do NOT cheat?

I don't think that is true either.
Bah!

Yes in jest at which point she raises her fist and says, “ You have to sleep sometimes”. Then I say,” Some day there will be men's liberation”. Then she usually says, ” Not in your life time”.

No just a smaller percentage. It is my belief that some people never mature so those people will still be acting the same way at sixty they did at twenty.

I know many ageing lotharios who would prove different.

Some become much more active as they mature as they have attained far more power than they had earlier.

What is it about power that attracts the younger woman?

Are they unable to view the person behind the desk and suit?

Most of these lotharios would not have gotten a thing from me at any age.

I prefer honesty in my partner.
Bah!

Bingo!

Nice one Kristina. It was Lister's confession from DNA that he was a class traitor because he once went into a Wine Bar...
LISTER: (LISTER leans close.) Once, many years ago...

LISTER pauses, about to deliver his terrible confession.

LISTER: I went into a wine bar.

He quickly turns back to his curry, embarrassed and ashamed. KRYTEN sits

back, confused.

KRYTEN: That's it? (Loudly) You went into a wine bar?

LISTER: Okay! Keep it down! keep it down! I don't want the whole world

to know!

KRYTEN: Well, what's so bad about going into a... (He pauses, seeing

LISTER's expression) W.B.?

LISTER: It means I was a class traitor. I could have been on that

slippery slope: hankering after pine kitchens, sleeping on futons,

eating tappas! Who knows where it could have lead? I could have

started having "relationships" with people instead of going out with

them. Got married, got on the property ladder. God Almighty, who

knows where it could have ended? Next thing you know, I'm playing

squash every Tuesday night with a bloke called Gerald! (He shakes his

head ruefully.) A lucky escape, man, a lucky escape.
