  Why Women Cry
Posted by: Icecub - 21-08-2004, 04:07 PM - Forum: Your Religion - Replies (2)

A little boy asked his mother, "Why are you crying?" "Because I'm a woman," she told him.

"I don't understand," he said. His Mom just hugged him and said, "And you never will."

Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"

"All women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.

The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.

Finally he put in a call to God. When God got on the phone, he asked, "God, why do women cry so easily?"

God said:

"When I made the woman she had to be special.

I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet gentle enough to give comfort.

I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children.

I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.

I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly.

I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.

I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.

And finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed."

"You see my son," said God, "the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart - the place where love resides."

  Cottage Pie
Posted by: Venus - 19-08-2004, 02:25 PM - Forum: Recipes - Replies (7)

I make a delicious cottage pie but don't follow a specific recipe. I just make it the way my mom made it.

Simply saute some diced onion in a large frying pan, add your mince, diced carrots, salt, pepper, mixed herbs & tomato paste/sauce/tinned tomatoes/cubed fresh tomatoes (whatever is available in your cupboard), crumble in an oxo cube. When that's nicely browned, pour on some boiling water, add a few handfuls of frozen peas & leave to cook a bit. Then thicken with a bit of cornflour to make a rich gravy. In the meantime, boil some potatoes & then mash & season them. I often add some grated cheese into my mash. Put the cooked mince mixture into a deep casserole dish & cover with the mash. I then sprinkle the top with grated cheese. Pop it into the oven at 200 deg C & cook until the top is golden brown. Voila! Big Grin

  Famous children's stories
Posted by: Curio - 18-08-2004, 12:22 PM - Forum: Parenting and Children - Replies (11)

After reading Icecub's thread about wrestling, violence etc, it made me think about some childrens stories.
There are a few of them that are also quite violent/scary.
Think of...........Hansel & Gretal, Little red riding hood, Snow White, 3 little pigs, Cinderella etc.
And yet, these stories have been around for ever!

Pic, FB, Jangar, and other pc boffs... any chance you could help?

You know that E-Sheep programme that you download that has little sheep running around your screen doing crazy things? Well, I have the website to download it, and am keen to do it, but don't want to mess up my pc.

Does anybody know if this programme is harmful at all?

Thanks in advance.Big Grin

  Cannot find a book.......
Posted by: nikkinaz - 16-08-2004, 07:05 PM - Forum: The Book Club - No Replies

.....then try this website, all you need to do is choose what type of book you want. Click on the word for eg happy and place the arrow between happy and bleak depending on 'how happy' you want the book to be. You got a total of 4 choices, and then click on the word GO....and see what options come up. Rather good if you use a library and are not sure what to get. Let me know what you all think. :p
