    Ce que femme veut, Dieu le veut.

    What a woman wants, God wants it.

    That saying means that women always get what they want, even if it means having to make it happen against all odds.*

    ...provided it's asked kindly... ;) which you always do... :eek:

    * wasn't obviously here the case... :p

    Thank ya very kindly ...but I hope this was a provision for all,
    so's we all can participate in "mutual building up " (ok, was going
    say "mutual public humiliation" HUMOR but sometimes I think my
    humor may come off as more bent than meant) . now back to
    reading the fear and fault since I's a little behind (ok a lot behind)
    :):)

    My Bad

    I totally missed this Welcome Wagon,,,all set out with the BBQ & Brews!!!

    Thanx Guys & Gals,,,
    I'd like to think we'll all hook-up one fine day, rejoice like anybody ever could, cry, get shocked into just what has happened, cry, look around to see the damage & the clean-up, cry some more,,,

    We have to be doing something of importance here, like, to encourage one another, and not to continue fruitless debates. I would like to meet you all, at that point in time, so I can see your Goofy faces, maybe take some pictures, (if there's cameras still around).

    Hi Firebird,

    This post of yours and the beautiful qualities that show through it are the "raison d'être" of this forum and make it all worthwhile, no matter what it might take.

    "No crushed reed will he break; and as for a dim flaxen wick, he will not extinguish it. In trueness he will bring forth justice." - Is. 42:3

    Love you bro !

    I had to pull a Brother Tsaphah here, with his background definitions here. "Raison d' etre". Had to Google that bad boy. By the way, can ANYBODY have a chat with this hermit? Or is he still in hibernation,,,:mad:
    [h=2]Raison d'être, a French phrase meaning "reason for existence"

    Well, I am flattered Utuna, I did not make this out to be a sparkle in one's mind. But Serious man, that is all I got to live on,,,,

    Bunches of Love back at ya U

    He suffers from the old same curse as all the honchos have to cope with.... on the edge of burnout...

    Oops, I had forgotten that reply of yours ! :(

    Sorry, my E/F dictionary says that these words are used in English too so I usually don't bother looking for other ones if the dictionary says that y'all understand the original words. I'll do otherwise next time. :)

    Luv you, bro !

    Now that looks fantastic. How I wish that's what I've been up too... ;)

    Sometimes the stress of the world and work can weigh down on us, thank you for saying hi. Burnout can be a correct wording sometimes. I love you all and even if I haven't posted, I'm here every day. You might mention me in your prayers, as I will for all of you...

    Thanks POP...

    French "models" have been wooin' americans for years ..
    OK thank you both for alleviating the "mother hens" where is he .
    And yes the system does that to people . Was hoping that the itty
    bitty bit of paradise was in play , if just for a moment or three .
    And love that AWOL interpretation ...I used to say my son was
    "mom america and apple pie" but then he went to work at Microsoft
    and that was a"downer" he couldn't wait to get work somewhere else.
    and he's just as unhappy with the new one (except for the cash) .:)

    We've had three new members recently and I'd like to give them a warm welcome : Ben-Oni, Truth Servant and Prince Charmant.

    We have no doubt that they'll enjoy our company just as we'll enjoy theirs and be encouraged by each other !!!!

    PS : Prince Charmant, I repeat the question I asked you in a PM, do you speak French ? Please, please, say yeeeessss !!!!! :p
