I guess this will shed a little light on the situation.

If anyone can't wrap their head around those simple rules they will not be allowed to access OT.

Read the post by John D. at the top of this forum if you or anyone else needs clarification.

HOW many times have I officially complained about posts aimed at me? Hello? What the hell- do you have something against me? I've enjoyed interacting with you, even messing around a little bit, but nothing bad was meant and I've made that obvious.

I can't even believe you posted that.

I can't even believe you posted that, again.

-Randy, they produce pharmaceuticals that can treat bi-polarism. I'm not a psychiatrist, but I suspect that you have a pretty typical anger-management problem, since your response to my calling someone an "old idiot" is outrageous to say the least! Either that or you just have issues with me, I don't know.

I will say this: As soon as one of the neocons calls me a *** or a queer or a homosexual, I'm going to be emailing your *** and you better do something about it.

N!

In all seriousness, My son is four, and as he was getting ready to pop out, I agonized over it myself, did some research, and decided that I would leave it up to him. So I didn't get him sniped. My brother had his kid done, and it was a freaking disaster, and he still goes in for more surgery on it once in a while to make sure it is "Straight" or whatever. Horrible.

The incidence of it is going down and down, so he will not be an odd man out, and you never know what chicks will want in 20 years time.

"Physical" Problems is a hold over from when it was done to prevent masturbation and infidelity. Its the same vein as when in the early 1900s, men would be "Shackled" in metal contraptions if they "Touched" down there too much.

The human body is a marvellous thing that has evolved over many thousands of years; it is highly complex, functions extremely well and copes with an enormous variety of environments and external threats.
So why chop a healthy and functioning part of it off? If it is really a health or other problem then it will naturally evolve away on its own

What they'll want in twenty years? Is there anybody who really knows what they want even now?

For a 928, I'd perform the operation with a broken piece of glass...Surely there's a DIY site on this somewhere. It's certainly worth a try.

He got snipped.

I solved that problem by marrying a woman from a different country - but made it easier by getting one from a place "separated by a common language"

Even more OT, there is a dating simulation in OT, and I tried it last night while my wife read next to me.

1) Playing game, wife looks over
2) Wife plays Game, gets somewhat frustrated because the woman in it is finicky,
3) Wife gets horny, we play our own game upstairs, rest is X-rated.

Moral? No, nobody knows what American women want, and I was never able to figure it out after many tries. Never had that problem with my MILF.

Although on the other hand it would be unreasonable to expect that the creator of a religion x thousand years ago, that succesfully did predict the motor car etc., could have also predicted that todays "progressive" cultures would be stupid enough to let someone wearing a niqab (which does kind of restrict ones vision) actually drive a car.

What this has to do with circumcision I do not know.

And has anyone noticed that Islamic women wearing the niqab also tend to be very short - so short in fact that seeing over the dash would be a problem niqab or not. Another perplexing question for the interpreters of the quran.
Jon,

Before you bash a religion, please learn to differentiate between culture and religion. In actuality, Islam is a very progressive religion and it was the first (and remains to this day) to sanction equal rights among men and women and establish an egalitarian rule of law. It is unfortunate that some people have hijacked it and inserted their own "interpretations" and localized cultures, thoughts and insecurities creating something totally different (like the no girls driving, niqab/abayas, among many unfounded cultural rules injected under the pretext of religion!!!). Today's image of Islam is unfortunately tarnished by ignorant people and a biased media.

To make it short, your comments were derogatory to me and many other Muslims and others alike. Please feel free to retract your comments or apologize. Thanx.

Just as the religious right in this country has hijacked Christianity. Couldn't agree more, Khaled, and thanks for your post.

Good grief, I'll never be able to trim a fuel or water line again without wondering about the cultural implications of the act...

let's go further off topic - Khaled, I recall you have a Bugatti Veyron - do you still have it and how do you like driving it? Have you discovered any quirks with it yet? (altho at a cool 1.5 mil, there shouldn't be any...)

Yet another area where outsourcing to another country may be an effective solution.
