It is not uncommon to charge the difference between promise and performance, between profession and reality, upon deep design and studied deceit: but the truth is, that there is very little hypocrisy in the world; we do not so often endeavour or wish to impose on others as on ourselves; we resolve to do right, we hope to keep our resolutions, we declare them to confirm our own hope, and fix our own inconstancy by calling witnesses of our actions; but at last habit prevails, and those whom we invited to our triumph laugh at our defeat.
We love to hear from redhead. It is tough being a teenager and globaljunkie has forgotten that he didn't like it much when he was that age either. It's great that sometimes we forget how things went. I have forgotten a lot about my children growing up and only think of them as wonderful children who have matured into caring adults, one can hope. And that essay on hypocrisy I will have to study for a while to see if I can comprehend such a deep dialogue. May you all be blessed and concerned for each other. Luv m-gm
I feel bad for you redhead. You had to start a brand new school and know that you are only going to be there for one year. It would be tough, and not one of us have had to do it. So, continue to post and let us know what you are up to, it makes me laugh. Hang in there. Have you met any fun people? Any one LDS?
GlobalJunkis, if you're going to pontificate you should at least site your sources. :@) Of course, I shouldn't expect anything less from you, and I wasn't "calling witnesses of our actions" (ie your mistakes)or laughing at your defeats.
Anyways, back to RedHead, she is doing a better job than I would've. She is getting up at 5:30am every morning and going to early seminary, she loves going to church on Sundays, she reads her scriptures daily, and is overall a pretty good kid. I don't want her to grow up too quickly.
A man was walking along a California beach and stumbled across an old lamp.
He picked it up and rubbed it and out popped a genie. The genie said "OK, OK. You released me from the lamp, blah blah blah. This is the fourth time this month and I'm getting a little sick of these wishes so you can forget about three. You only get one wish!"
The man sat and thought about it for a while and said, "I've always wanted to go to Hawaii but I'm scared to fly and I get very seasick. Could you build me a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive my car there?"
The genie laughed , "That's impossible. Think of the logistics of that! How would the supports ever reach the bottom of the Pacific? Think of how much concrete-how much steel! And the maintenance of that bridge! No - think of another wish."
The man said OK and tried to think of a really good wish.
Finally, he said, "I'm married to a redhead. So, I wish that I could understand her... know how she feels inside and what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment...... know what she really wants when she says 'nothing'... know how to make her truly happy......I want to know how she can be so damn sexy one second and be the devils daughter, the next. I really want to understand her and how she thinks!"
The genie said, "You want that bridge with two lanes or four?"
I take umbrage with the comment that I dindn't enjoy high school. I enjoyed it just fine and did what any intelligent teenager would do, not get up at 5am to take seminary.

i think we should ban redhead from posting as all she ever does is whine. have some cheese and grow up.
so that last post should've said
"Oh big brother, thou art a hypocrite" crf

How can you tell if a redhead has been using your computer?
By the hammer embedded in the monitor.
What's a redhead's idea of the shortest way to a man's heart?
Through the breastbone.
