...And even if I did I would deny it if it got around

I'll keep an open mind but for now I leave you with the words of the great Russian philosopher Michael Bakunin, one of the fathers of anarchism: "Religion by it's nature is an impoverishment, enslavement, and annihilation of humanity. It is the weapon of the State and must be smashed before the right of self determination can be possible."

Ah yes, Bakunin, a major 19th Century radical. He also said "The passion for destruction is also a creative passion." In both declarations quoted he was just speaking for his spiritual father. I wonder where he is now.

I didnt think I would see the day LP when you would make such a profound and totally incorrect judgement of a place or situation, or probably more to the point, believe some bit of garbage that someone has cited to you as fact. You created the first paragraph below, and OK quoted strongly for the second.

*******Why is it God's "choosen people" are so disliked by almost everyone in the world? And why are the (supposedly) most holiest places on Earth (regardless of the religion) nothing but rocks and sand? We even have a word in our language to describe such places: God Forsaken.

As Sam Kinnison once said (when describing how what he'd tell all the people in the Middle East who've been killing each other for a millenium: "See this? It's sand! You know what it'll be in a thousand years? It's gonna be *#%&ing sand!! And you're telling me these folks are enlightened?***********

I would have thought that a man of your travels would have been there and seen all for himself. Obviously you have never set foot on the place, and I wont blame you for not wanting to  take the L/seat in getting there.

Yes a couple of thousand years ago it WAS all rocks and sand. Maybe you can be excused for not knowing what is there today. It is NOT all rocks and sand TODAY, totally the opposite! FACT. You see this Sam Kinnison bloke led you right up the garden path. I respectfully ask, how does this Sammy bloke look in the eyes of any logical thinking person today? I am keen to hear.

*This place of sand and rocks* is one of the most developed and productive pieces of real estate on Planet Earth today. I thought you as the womans man would have known where most of Russias cut flowers came from today! Israel. They have even slaughterd most world markets in cut flowers, including the two boxes of flowers we send from Oz each year!  LOL In addition, the biggest revelations in Aquaculture, Horticulture, Agriculture, Viticulture and anything else that has do with water as the pre-requisite, has all happened in Israel in the last 20 to 30 years. Go and have a LOOK LP, staggering! More importantly, why is this so? You need to find out. I trust that you will, it will be worth it.If you choose to find out from the more enlightened book, I think you will find is says something like *A land flowing with milk and honey*. That seems a far cry from *rocks and sand* does it not? Or, is your head buried right in that *sand*? :-)

I wish you were here with me so that we could have a YAK about the above . (Oh, and talking about yaking, the 52 has gone, RIP land, and we now have a nice long four seater, meaning the bloke in front ends up with all the mess down his neck!) I still to this day dont know why the Russians never put little bags in the rear seats! I can only assume that their pilots were on rations or nothing at all.

Oh, I also noted that you twisted and made an attempt of puting words into Williams mouth with your above response; well that is how it appeared on paper, maybe it suited you at the time. In fact it is the worst post I have ever read from you, when compared to the enlightening observations you have reported on people and places worldwide for a long time. I enjoy posts from intelligent people, especially when it is a result of their personal experience, but just sprooking from philosophers and hiding ones head in the sand is about as good as your mate and buddy from Tx !!! Da?

Thumbs up to you LP, keep reading.

...so cometh another drunken man

Easy there Mate. In case you haven't figured it out yet I tend to be a tad sarcastic at times. I take very few things seriously and, inspite of how I come across, that includes myself. William is well aware of the respect I have for him even though we don't see eye to eye on this stuff. I'm sure he's not offended by my gentle poking.

However, I remain firmly convinced of my position: 1) Organized religion is responsible for most of the world's misery and is a great bane on mankind. 2) This is soley because it's believers are immovable and steadfastly resistant to the very likely probability it's all nonsense. As I said, they're the Master Race of Nuts.

It's true I have never been to Israel and I have zero interest in going. (I've got my own crosses to bear.) But I've been just about everywhere else in that part of the world and it *is* sand and rocks. I won't go into Israel any deeper, suffice to say I find them about as hypocritical and dangerous a nation as they come thanks mostly to their unhealthy, shortsighted perspective and how they manipulate my country's foregin policy.

Btw, Sam Kinnison was hardly a philosopher (although I sometimes wonder). It was a joke son, lighten up. I knew I shouldn't have discussed religion or politics, it violates a basic rule of mine: People are screwed up and need to worry about other things. As whacked out as Dubya is I have to give him credit for something he recently said. When asked how he thought history would remember his war, he held out his hands and replied: "Who knows? We'll all be dead."

Lol, an enlightened intellectual if I ever saw one. Another believer too, and the most powerful man in the world. Be afraid, be very afraid.

(I had to delete the expressions that told Lezbo whut I rally thunked abowt her.)

Leaving this board, I will tell you I am going to miss you. We go way back a few years on this site. I have probably read all of the billions of posts you have made (not as many now as before). You have a unique and valuable perspective and it's great that you have been here so long to share it with people.

I can say the same for soooo many of you. And I thank you all. There can't be a better resource for guys who dare to set foot into these difficult but potentially rewarding waters. I learned a lot and I hope I added something to help someone out once or twice.

I am giving up on FSU women-- not because there aren't some great ones over there (including some that some of you have brought back), but I have moved since I started and there are a lot of nice ladies right here that I will date when this is all over-- the danger of my breeding unwittingly with a close cousin has passed: ) Now it seems like such a hassle to go through all the traveling and paperwork for a relationship. It just doesn't seem very natural and organic to me.

If there is doubt early in the 90 days, she can go home, both of you can think about it. And anytime before the original 90 days are up, she can go back to the embassy and get another visa, thereby, getting closer to 5 or 6 months, to make the decision that will change both of your lives, hopefully for the better!

Probably better to say being married to "YOUR FSU lady sucks" as opposed to "a FSU lady sucks" as the original statement sub consciously makes one ask the question, what is wrong with scaught? Is he not patient etc. After reading a few comments by you one wonders what may be wrong with her. If she was a complainer from day one, then that may just be her nature and after a while that gets old and destructive - and who wants to live their life this way - as opposed to you being just not patient.

Scaught, Scaught, Scaught,

First of all, I gotta say the I've never seen anyone throw out a simple attitude/statement who fired up the old crowd to this degree and this fast.  Your brief statements almost instantly brought out both the old farts & the newbies just about instantly.  That was a flash, man!

I outright admire your verbal hatred and negative enthusiasm of this woman cuz I have a guy's rights general attitude about the whole dating man/women thing... Without taking a side, I very was surprised that people didn't come out of the woodwork slamming on you. Maybe this board has mellowed...

Would you let me play the devil's advocate here?  You may have a completely valid attitude and then again, you may not.  So, without any ill feeling I'll throw some comment back to you... OK?  

There's no use for me to go on if this is not an agreeable thing....

Less of a blanket statement..could we say?
It would suck for me if my wife went back.
I would survive I suppose, but it would suck.

If you were dropped in Russia, you would likely need some help too, Scaught.  The issue is not only how willing they are to adapt, but also how much you help them to adapt.  If you don't help them to help themselves, you share as much of the blame.

If she's stuck at home all day, going stir crazy, then you are going to have to expect a heavy investment of your time and resources to keep her happy.  If you get her out and doing stuff on her own, your time and resource commitment will decrease.  Try enrolling her in an ESL course.  Teach her to use the municiple bus system.  Help her find a job.  Teach her to drive, if you have the patience for it.  All of these help her break her stranglehold on you, as she reaches out to some independence on her own.

Best of luck.  I hope it works out for you.

... in response to It is a heavy commitment to take on, posted by John K on Apr 13, 2004

Don't know why you thought she's cooped up. She has been attending ESL classes several hours weekdays, cool shops and supermarkets all within minutes of walking. Got her membership in a gym a 30 sec walk from here. Failed her driving test. She doesn't appreciate anything and complains about everything. I see no difference regarding complaints I've commonly read here about American women. We just aren't compatible living together in this country. Nothing can help. This relationship and she are a complete drain and HUGE waste of my time.

That is one of the big draw backs with this whole MOB scene.

You really do not know what you are getting until she gets here and you start living together in most cases - same for the lady. Even taking your time with several trips does not necessarily eliminate situations like yours being the result.

And, the MOB government program is not set up for men to seek women for potential marriage. It is set up for American men/women to have a way to bring a lady/man into the system that they have met, fell in love and got married or want to get married.

I suspect that it was orginally intended for US citizens who were in other countries for employment or education that met and fell in love with some non US individualone while out of the country.

Hi Scaught,

Sorry things didn't work out for you. I would describe my first two months as a living hell and the year that followed the seperation but for different reasons than yours. Consider yourself lucky in that at least you didn't have to deal with a false DV charge...at least not yet. I hope that doesn't occur. Take care.
