Why Am I Married?

WHY AM I MARRIED?



You have two choices in life:



You can stay single and be miserable or get married and wish you were dead.



At a cocktail party, one woman said to another,



''Aren't you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?''



''Yes, I am. I married the wrong man.''



A lady inserted an ad in the classifieds:



''Husband Wanted''.



Next day she received a hundred letters.



They all said the same thing:



''You can have mine.''



When a woman steals your husband,



there is no better revenge than to let her keep him.



A woman is incomplete until she is married. Then she is finished



A little boy asked his father,



''Daddy, how much does it cost to get married?''



Father replied, ''I don't know son, I'm still paying.''



A young son asked,



''Is it true dad, that in some parts of Africa



a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her?''



Dad replied, ''That happens in every country, son.''



Then there was a woman who said,



''I never knew what real happiness was until I got married,



and by then, it was too late.''



Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.



If you want your spouse to listen and



pay strict attention to every word you say -- talk in your sleep.



Just think if it weren't for marriage, men would go through life thinking they had no faults at all.

Prime the carbs?

My 05 triumph America has been sitting for months, and will not start now. has 820 miles on it.. Engine turns over ok. I think the carbs may have to be primed to get the gas flowing again???or maybe the bat. is not giving enough spark. how do I prime the carbs if that is the problem, maybe a safety switch stuck?



Prime the carbs?security



The gasoline in your float bowls (and your gas tank) has turned bad unless you used a gas stabilizer like Stabil. You should drain the float bowls and siphon the tank dry. Add fresh gasoline to the tank and let-r-rip.



Prime the carbs?trojan



ACK!! sounds like I could have had a problem. Thankfully after I added 2 gallons of fresh gas it started up.



Thanks all for your help..now to find a buyer for the bike or some one to ride it once a week for me (my back went). I Love the bike, my compressed disks don't...J.R. Report It


OOPS sounds like fuel has turned to gunk in carb,



if you are lucky you may get away with just draining the carbs if fuel in tank smells ok,



just pray jets are not blocked up, some times easy start sprayed into carb intake will pull fuel through

In order to advance your belt in BJJ , you have to compete in tournaments ?

I know that BJJ is pretty tough for injuries, and the danger increases during injuries because players play for victory and triumph , so they don;t care about the opponent. So i' d like to know this. If in order to advance from whit to blue, from blue to purple, from purple to brown and from brown to black and etc... if you have to compete in tournaments .

I think real fights are an important part in attaining the highest belt possible in any art. If all you do is kata and practice, you're not really what you are training for are you....

you have to take exams before geting promoted to a higher degree belt obviously they know you can fight but theyre going to test you in skill ,knowledge,your degree of leadership,and many more cause you have to prove you are more then a fighter
I don't think tournaments are neccessary.
they are not necessary but they help. They show that you can actually apply the techniques in a live setting. You can also learn alot of little things from competing against another person at full force.



At my school none of the blue belts have not competed atleast once but the pressure to compete is not there. We do enough live rolling after classes that our instructors can see how well people are progressing.
If not, how do you know you're learning anything? Tournaments should come as close to the real world as any of us truely hope to get, so they become the proving ground for everything we're learning. Some say tournaments are not necessary, and I say that they are just as important as learning how to close your fist properly.
depends on the academy..at my academy you do not have to compete in tourneys to promote..but there is annual inter-academy tournament where we compete against each other in our own school, which also determines belt promos. bottom line is we're all there to make each other better not to harm each other, although every academy has the meathead white belts that refuse to tap and crossface the hell out of their opponent's nose etc. but for the most part it's geared towards improvement in bjj. p.s. dont enter 'grappling' tourneys that allow heel hooks, spine locks etc. because that's where all the meatheads kick it
Yes you do, you have to show proficiency, you have to prove that you can apply what you've learned, and you do so in tournaments.

  • What do i choose?

    in language arts we have the choice to read whatever book we want, but the theme has to be triumph and turmoil (ex. hatchet or a wrinkle in time). my teacher showed my class some books, most of them were dull. any ideas on books?



    What do i choose?spyware remove



    What about ''Disgrace'' by JM Coetzee. Set in South Africa and won the Nobel price for literature. It's quite a dark book, so not sure it can be defined as 'triumph' although survival itself can be a triumph.



    Or what about ''Wild Swans'' by Jung Chang. Brilliant book about 4 generations of female relatives who grew up in China, from the era of the concubine through communism to the great granddaughter who grew up in a capitalist western country. I enjoyed the book so much I went to China for a month :-)



    What do i choose?virus protection



    Dune, The World War series (Harry Turtledove), Mr. Midshipman Hornblower
    I like the book called the giver i read that in middles school though
    Wuthering Heights. Its about overcoming your station in life through extreme struggle and loss. It is by far one of my favorite books. It is well written and a great read.

    Now do you believe that Jesus is the Messiah??

    Read this... http://www.fatheralexander.org/booklets/...



    Prophecies by content



    The prophets wrote that the Messiah would have two natures: a human (Gen. 3:15, Is. 7:14, Gen. 22:18, Ps. 41:7, Dan. 7:13) and a Godly (Ps. 2; Ps., 45; Ps, 110; Is. 9:6; Jer. 23:5; Bar. 3:36-38; Mic. 5:2; Mal. 3:1), that He would be the greatest prophet (Deut. 18:18); king (Gen. 49:10; 2 Samuel 7:13; 1 Chron. 17:12-13; Ps. 2, Ps. 132:11, Ez. 37:24; Dan. 7:13) and High Priest (Ps. 110; Zach. 6:12), anointed by God (the Father) for these duties (Ps. 2, Ps. 45; Is. 42; Is. 61:1-4; Dan. 9:24-27), and will be a kind Shepherd (Ez. 34:23-24, 37:24; Mic. 5:3).



    The prophecies also witness that the main role of the Messiah will be to defeat the devil and his powers (Gen. 3:15; Num. 24:17), redeem people from sin and to heal their physical and spiritual illnesses (Ps. 40; Is. 35:5-7, 42:1-12, 50:4 and the 53rd chapter and 61:1-3; Zach. 3:8-9) and to reconcile them with God (Gen. 49:10; Jer. 23:5 and 31:34; Ez. 36:24-27; Dan. 9:24-27; Zach. 13:1); that He will sanctify the faithful (Zach. 6:12), will establish a New Covenant in place of the old (Is. 42:2, 55:3 and 59:20-21; Dan. 9:24-27), and that this covenant will be for eternity (Jer. 31:31; Is. 55:3). The prophets predicted the calling of the Gentiles to the Kingdom of the Messiah (Ps. 72:10; Is. 11:1-11, 43:16-28, 49:6 and 65:1-3), the spreading of faith, beginning with Jerusalem (Is. 2:2), that His spiritual blessings will extend to all humanity (Gen. 22:18, Ps. 132:11; Is. 11:1, 42:1-12 and 54:1-5; Ez. 34:23 and 37:24; Amos 9:11-12; Ag. 2:6-7; Zeph. 3:9, Zach. 9:9-11), and the spiritual bliss of the faithful (Is. 12:3).

    Atheists: Why are their constants in the universe?

    Fred Hoyle (British astrophysicist): ''A common sense interpretation of the facts suggests that a superintellect has monkeyed with physics, as well as with chemistry and biology, and that there are no blind forces worth speaking about in nature. The numbers one calculates from the facts seem to me so overwhelming as to put this conclusion almost beyond question.'' (2)



    George Ellis (British astrophysicist): ''Amazing fine tuning occurs in the laws that make this [complexity] possible. Realization of the complexity of what is accomplished makes it very difficult not to use the word 'miraculous' without taking a stand as to the ontological status of the word.'' (3)



    Paul Davies (British astrophysicist): ''There is for me powerful evidence that there is something going on behind it all....It seems as though somebody has fine-tuned nature鈥檚 numbers to make the Universe....The impression of design is overwhelming''. (4)



    Paul Davies: ''The laws [of physics] ... seem to be the product of exceedingly ingenious design... The universe must have a purpose''. (5)



    Alan Sandage (winner of the Crawford prize in astronomy): ''I find it quite improbable that such order came out of chaos. There has to be some organizing principle. God to me is a mystery but is the explanation for the miracle of existence, why there is something instead of nothing.'' (6)



    John O'Keefe (astronomer at NASA): ''We are, by astronomical standards, a pampered, cosseted, cherished group of creatures.. .. If the Universe had not been made with the most exacting precision we could never have come into existence. It is my view that these circumstances indicate the universe was created for man to live in.'' (7)

    What do you think of this joke??? Stick with it, pardon the pun!?

    So, do you WAX?????



    Only a woman can laugh at this. No one else would dare! Hope you enjoy!



    This has to be one of the funniest and most awful scenarios I have ever



    heard of... Bless this woman!!!



    All hair removal methods have tricked us with their promises of easy,



    painless removal. The epilady, scissors, razors, Nair and now.... The Wax!!



    My night began as any other normal weekday night. Come home; fix dinner;



    played with the kids. I then had the thought that would ring painfully in my



    mind for the next few hours; ''Maybe I should do the hair removal thing for



    the month?''



    So I headed to the site of my demise; the bathroom. It was one of those cold



    wax kits. No melting a clump of hot wax, you just rub the strips together in



    your hand and then they get warm and you peel them apart, press it to your



    leg (or wherever else) and hair comes right off! No mess, no fuss. How hard



    can it be? I mean, I'm no girly, girl, but am mechanically inclined enough



    that I can figure it out.



    *YA THINK!!!*



    So I pull one of the thin strips out. It's two strips facing each together,



    stuck together. Instead of rubbing them together, I get out the hairdryer



    and heat it to 1000 degrees. Cold wax my rear end (Oh, how this phrase



    haunts me!).



    I lay the strip across my thigh. Hold the skin around it tight and pull.



    OK... So it wasn't the best feeling, but it wasn't too bad. I can do
