Grow A Little Extra This Year If You Can! Help A Neighbor :)

Feb 27, 2010 27 Replies

I live in the city. There are good neighbors and not so good neighbors everywhere, I suspect. I think what you project is often what you receive.

I like giving.

Wow! I have alway compared the human race to rats also. I have always used the phrase "Humans breed like rats".

The future communications of the human race may be like in Isaac Azimov's empire novels. The future may not have personal relationships at all. Everyone will communicate with computers while the population shrinks to zero. For those that communicate by computers may help in population reduction. After all I am single, never married and no kids. No rat breeding for us that communicate by computer! Now where did my robot go.

Not receive, taken! by others from those that live in the city. You can have that delusional world called the "city" :)

Sounds like a preachers wife or goes to church in the hope of salvation. Do you give because if you do not give, you will not be in Gods favor.

If you give and expect absolutely nothing in return, including salvation. Then I have the highest respect and regards to you!

You surly do not speak for me.

Sort of reminds me of Italian nobility circa 1500. They thought the world was going south and decided not to breed. Now extinct.

I on the other hand have five kids. Age 25 to 35 but no grand kids yet just two by marriage. If you look at my family 2 boys 1 girl we have 8 off spring. Wife side has 2 males and one female with 3 offspring.

One of the 8 passed early so we have 7 + 3 = 10 kids. This for 12 adults. Our diminishment = 17%

So far 3 with 1 due grand kids.

Look at this movie sometime a comedy with a tidbit of truth.

I sort of favor contrarian philosophies as the main stream seems shallow and tied to the factory no beauty.

Granted, I would love to live in the country with lots of acres and neighbors down the road apiece. "My yard" is full of trees and herbs and flowers - one neighbor likes it because it looks country - another hates it for the same reason.

LOL! Last time I was in a church was for a funeral, a few years ago. It's probably just a bad habit, as I'm not good at all at taking. And there are too many "Gods" out there for me to try to win over.

I don't have a clue what salvation would look like, but I tend to think it's a state of mind, not something that happens after we're composting.

I do sometimes - same back at you.

It amazes me how many people think alike here :) My alter is my garden, always kneeling and using lots of holy water :)

Enjoy Life... Dan

I most surly do not speak for others. How about generalize.

I think you are wrong here. There are lots of Italians in this world. However, I will surly agree there no noble Italians in the world :)

If you want more grandkids - take their computers away!

I will look for it and see if I can watch it on-demand for free first.

My favorite dictionary is "The Devil's Collection: A Cynic's Dictionary" It's out of print. I am a skeptic and a cynic. A contrarian... maybe :) Some definitions. Children: Items that have become so expensive, only the poor can have them. Happiness: An agreeable sensation arising from contemplating the misery of another.

Enjoy Life... Dan
