Sweet strawberries?

by greendawn in

jw

this may not be the case in the usa, australia etc but whenever i buy strawberries they are disappointing in that they are not sweet at all and only the addition of sugar makes them reasonably good.

only once i had strawberries that were sweet as they should be, i believe they were from scotland, otherwise they are just colour they look good to the eye but they are not tasty (aren't they like the watchtower society?

does anyone know of specific sweet varieties that can be grown at home?

I stayed a summer in Oregon when I was a kid and we went cherry picking. Best cherries I ever had....plus I didn't have to mortgage the house to buy them.

LOST spoiler questions??

by Bob Loblaw in

why did charlie have to die?

why couldn't he have swam out of that window?

he was such a good character.

I can't imagine them being totally done with Charlie. I noticed they mentioned the code being designed by a musician, struck me as something to remember for later..

I just figured Jack was drunk when he shouted for them to get his dad and lying when he said the Rx was from his dad.

I picked Locke for the funeral guy. Kate said something about "him" waiting for her so I'm thinking she hooks up with Sawyer ergo it isn't him in the casket. Juilet is a good guess though, I did wonder where she went as she and Jack seemed rather cosy.

Kate was missing her freckles from the island sun. She is cute either way though.

Kudos to Hurley for saving the day, I loved that part!

PS much better than the ending for Heros, wtf is up with Peter...fly Peter FLY

Well in looking back I was starting to read books about the Salem witch trials and take an interest in demons prior to studying at age 11. So attorney maybe?

No outlet for unattractive men in this society...

by Gregor in

they work hard and take care of their mothers.

they are loving uncles and kind hearted.

but they are 5'3', 290 lbs., bald at 35 and their personal interests are grounded in 3 stooges movies and star trek reruns.

There are lots of overweight, unattractive women out there (by media standards). Lots of them are lonely too. Why aren't they out there hooking up with those lonely guys? Or why aren't those lonely men asking them out? Could it be that some of them don't want a woman who is as atttractive as they are, but they want a model/porn queen type that they have been fantasizing about?

I get really tired of hearing men cry about how women don't want nice guys when conversely they refuse to give the time of day to any woman that isn't considered "hot" by their friends.

I agree with the other poster who said there are lots of not so attractive guys with attractive women out there and vice versa. The missing factor is personality. If you are not physically blessed, are you developing your personality? your social skills? your humanitarian skills? Volunteering was a great suggestion to meet other motivated people. Or have a hobby or a sport that you are passionate about and don't just stay home and keep it to yourself - get out there and share it with others.
Prostitution is a five minute fix to a lifelong problem. Not to mention dangerous and possibly exploitive to both sides. It only makes you lonelier in the long run because you have made only a temporary physical connection and not a emotional/spiritual connection to another person. Plus, the prostitute probably didn't want to have sex, he/she wanted the money. It is purely sexual release and could be had much cheaper and more safely through masturbation.

Couldn't have said it better.

Regarding men in porn, I think traditionally porn has been geared more toward men then women. Nowdays though women are taking a greater interest so I imagine that will influence the type of men cast in them to a degree. Haven't watched much porn lately though so I'm just guessing...
