I am now summoning the courage to write a formal complaint to S8 Resorts, which chain Marcoola Beach Resort belongs to. I'm still a bit upset about the whole thing, because it was one seriously expensive trip, and I feel upset that I regret having taken it because of the resort managers.
I've been away for a while, but am now returned, and happy to be home. The conference that I went to will be the subject of a later diatribe, but I felt the need to get my feelings about Marcoola Beach Resort off my chest. If you intend to stay on the Queensland coast in Australia any time in the next few years, you should probably read this so that you know
I have often wondered the same thing about other women myself, because despite my femininity, I have never found people that don't show an interest in me attractive. Call it crazy, but if you ignore me, then you're not the one. I agree with what you said and I appreciate you making it clear why other women do stupid things. Maybe I can be more helpful to them next time they com
JW, 'The Isralites were always asking God to smite this or that enemy. I don't see anything seriously out of place from the old testament. ' The difference is that the Son of God came preaching love and forgiveness in the New Testament. Now, His advent was more recent, so like with any law, the updated version must be adhered to.
I read the article that you wrote about Islam and terrorism, and I didn't find it biased at all. I haven't read his response, but I have to say that I am surprised to hear that he took offense to it. I thought that you took considerable care to ensure that you gave a well-rounded comment on the subject.
I just had the epiphanous realisation that, although all people have a mind of their own, they can choose not to exercise it. I'm perfectly serious. I had always just assumed that people who did what other people were doing just because other people were doing it actually didn't possess their own mind, but were actually borrowing someone elses. Or, more accur
Oh, you must be the absolute perfect audience member wuxiaomao I'm a nuisance watching films. I pick the plot holes, occasionally the endings, and character inconsistencies... I'm the one who you hear coming out of the cinema going, 'That movie was great, but would have been better if - '. I suspect that that happens when the director had to cut stuff out and hoped that no one would not
I have to admit that I still sided with him even after he killed the exwife and her husband and grew corn over their bodies... there's just something about him. I can understand now how people can be driven to a life of crime for the one they love now...
I heard story a little similar to yours just last week. Timothy Davis was a minister at a conservative church, and lost his job, being excommunicated from that denomination. He still had a business, but had taken on a partner to run things. The partner changed the contracts and basically stole everything out from under him, including his car. His wife had just brought their new baby home from the hospital. He wanted to sue, but God told him that he did
There's this one woman in my office who, whenever something ridiculous, unjust or frustrating is mentioned in her presence, commits the unjustifiable sin of saying, 'Well, that's reality, get used to it.' You know the person I'm talking about: the one who has resigned his/herself to the negative side of life. Possibly one who marched against Vietnam or somet
There, I sent them an email telling them about it.
That's pretty disappointing, actually, because dictionary.com is so much easier to update thana print book. Perhaps I should write to them and suggest an entry be put in. The site is great for common words, but when you try something a little unusual, I've found in the past that it's a bit hit and miss as to whether it has a definition listed.
He has a real comic knack, hasn't he? Funny, sexy... but evil Unfortunately I saw it coming a mile off, which meant that I was warching the film hoping that I was wrong for an hour before they revealed the personality split. Oh, the pain.... but fortunately he has made such a wide range of films that I can aviod the ones where Johnny goes evil <img src="../images/smiles/smile.gif" border=0
My mother had a breakdown and started exhibiting symptoms that I thought were related to chronic fatigue, but the doctor told her that it was depression. One of her friends has recently been diagnosed with it, and mother brought home some pamphlets about it. She suspected that she has it, and I think she's right, but when I started reading about it, I felt alarmed. For the last five years I have had difficulty concentrating for any long peri
I am not in Briswich, I'm in Edinburgh (South Australia), but I too have a grey day with the occasional burst of sunlight breaking valiantly through the clouds. It is very much hot chocolate on the couch by the heater weather, but work isn't so bad despite the scattered piles of documents cluttering the desk. I work with nice people, and I find what I do interesting. You're right - life is pretty nice, really.
When I was going to university in the city I used to get the Big Issue sometimes - no one sells it where I am now. I'm sorry to have missed this interesting insight into Bruce's character - the real one, I mean. Sorry, that was a very, very little joke. Hee. This is a good question, the one about Kate Beckinsale. There are still some actors out there with their heads still on their shoulders, but there are many for whom acting has transformed
I will confess to cheating and Googling for more I beg your forgiveness, but I have provided more contronyms for your entertainment and edification. I will warn you that some of them are reaching a little to be accepted as contronyms, the link is a little weak, but here you go, courtesy of Seth Teller: http://graphics.lcs.mit.edu/~seth/misc/selfantonyms.html sanction me
It's not really that bad, but my 22nd birthday is coming up, and that signals the end of my excuses for frivolity and general dopeyness. People will now expect me to behave in accordance with the unwritten rules of the emotionally suppressed and boring :( It's hardly my fault that I'm a bit daft. I am suspecting that I actually have fibromyalgia, because from
She sounds so cute! Especially the clapping thing - aww that's just beautiful! Moments like those can't be bought and mean more than things that can
Contronyms are words that are their own antonym, ie cleave = to separate AND to adhere. Just thought I'd share.
This little taxpayer isn't happy. Defence has a contract with Serco, who provide our caterers, cleaners - and our media facilities. Their employees are really quite nice people Fair enough. Serco thus has a monopoly on defence media requirements. Not quite so fair. Especially when you consider the quotes for poster production - this
Today I was required to give a small talk, only about 30mins, to some guy on the defence graduates program, about my research. So I got up there, armed with a poster and a copy of my paper, and manged to not just talk about how, why and with whom we experimented, but I even managed to cover methodological points, such as determining standard deviations! Th
Woo hoo! Preach it sister! This is exactly what I have always said
My supervisor just gave me some truly terrible news. She sent me an email that had come around about the colloquium, and someone dobbed me in as being a potentially interesting speaker for the divisional colloquium. I was partially hired, you see, on the basis of my being unafraid to perform. Having directed a cabaret worked in my favour. But this
Yes, I can completely understand - there's no way to hide them. And there are some excellent games for children out there. You're right - careful selection of the games and limited play time should do the trick. But encourage them to do other things - because you're a gamer they will see you play a lot, and that's because it's your job but do try to take them out to do things
