A comment is a comment. That’s true. And if you’re in a discussion community where you can earn from interaction, controversial remarks or disagreements are fine. They are even expected if it’s a touchy subject. But, other than the monetary aspects, I don’t see commenting online in a written form as being any different from talking with a person face-to-face. I’m not going to be rude and discourteous and abusive to you in person. So I’m not going to do it to you online either. I have no control what comes out of another person’s mouth, but I can control what I say and write. I can also control what I hear or read. You can spit out all the venom you want. No guarantee I’ll read it and/or read and respond. Hit me with your best shot! It could be your contrasting opinions and points of view may give me a great idea and/or help me to solve a difficult problem. It could be like a breakthrough. You never know! 🙂

That is precisely how I feel. A person has the freedom to write what s/he wants, I have the freedom to not read it. The contrast of opinions is what makes a site lively; not just the ‘I agree’.

-
There is just so much one can digest when it comes to comments that are rude. Just as there is freedom of speech so does one have the freedom to block that which is unpalatable.
-
When you are getting paid per comment, why cut your own pocket?

I was engaged in a certain group in facebook its a community of people about paranormal things, like legends, and true to life stories but i was always pissed off with them! Maybe because of their own ignorance that can’t even justify their own verdict with a particular subject and most of them are keep laughing behind your back when in fact they are definetly laughing at themselves for knowing anything but ignorance. So, i stop arguing and ignore them. Truly, as the saying goes you cannot win an argument with an ignorant.

In Jamaica we say; “When you argue with an idiot it is hard to remember who is the idiot.

Doctor Ben Casey versus Doctor Kildare? I only watched Ben Casey because it was on TV. By comparison, I looked forward to watching episodes of Doctor Kildare. Richard Chamberlain was a dreamboat! As for James Franciscus? I rather liked him but you’re right. His career didn’t really go anywhere.
-
I loved Dr. Kildare; Casey… nah. When you do research and learn how this Vince Edwards went after Chamberlain… crazy. Pure Crazy.
Mr. Novak was a show that Fransicus could have grown old with. He could have stayed in the role, and maybe did a touch of moonlighting in movies, but he sank himself.

having a real friend is the most beautiful thing in the world. sadly in my case I can say I was disappointed many times by people that I considered my friends
-
I usually have ‘two-tiers’ people who are my friends and those who are kind of environment. Environment always lets me down. Hypocrites, liars, actors… but real friends are priceless

Well, did he married for money not for love?
It is a good thing that you had understood him
Such a saad case
Sounds like a drama-
It is very sad. He married for money and didn’t bargain on the fact she works for an embassy so after marrying him dragged him way around to the other side of the world to stay home and look after the children.
The other day she brought him back on a visit and it was like he had a leash around his neck.
Another friend of ours was ‘not allowed’ to see him.
But I say nothing.

Friendship is most important thing in human life but we all must keep in mind that in choosing friends keep two things in min; either your friend must be beautiful or intelligent because your friends are your introduction in the society where someone lives. But I say
Make new friends but keep the old
These are silver those are goldWe make friends throughout life, in play school, school, college, office, just everywhere. As we grow through different phases in life, we meet new people and make new friends and do not necessarily give up on old friends. It all depends on how strong the bond of your friendship is. Friends are always there to guide and support you through the ups and downs of your life. They are the people who are always there to lend a helping hand to you.
These are most important friendship qualities as..
Sharing is caring
Trust and Loyalty
Personal Adviser
Listener
Selfless – Always ready to help
Cheers you up
Knows you inside out
Forgiving
Straightforward
Not Judgmental at all -
Friends are good and they can also be bad people it all depends on an individual choose your friends wisely , they are likely to hurt you at some point in your life. It’s not easy keeping friends for a long time. There ar3 those that will come into your life who will make things good and there ar3 those who will come into your life to ruin it for good. I have had friends who have come and gone in my life and sometimes I don’t regret them leaving. You usually come to realize later that they would have got you into trouble.
Your friend probably decided not to tell you about his wedding for reasons best to known to him. Men ar3 usually very jealous beings maybe he thought that if he tells you, you might tell him something that he may not be happy with. So the best thing was to keep silent and have the fun that he was hoping to get. People are very funny. If you have made a choice that’s your choice I will not try to make you change your mind, that is what you want and that’s what you will get. I feel it was wrong for your friend to have hidden the fact that he was getting married and still call you his friend. He probably felt embarassed to even mention it when you met, he will one day remember the friendship that you once shared.

Of course I’ve heard of these people. But then I’m probably older than most people here, lol. I love reading about celebrities from back then.

I vaguely think I saw re runs of 77 Sunset Strip and do recall seeing the name Lana Woods…
-
I remember both of them. But even though they didn’t make it really big, most folks from my generation still remember them. 77 Sunset Strip was real popular TV show and as you say everybody knew Lana because everybody knew Natalie. 🙂
-
You would think Natalie would have helped her sister a little more
-
In the entertainment business there’s only so much you can do for your siblings. Your siblings need to be able to shine on their own if they want to be a star. Fact is Natalie was much more talented than Lana. In the case of the Roberts kids it happened backwards. Eric Roberts was in the business first. He got his sister Julia Roberts into the film business and she has been way more successful than him! She was the star! No matter what she couldn’t share that brightness with him.
-
The nasty bio Lana did of Natalie sort of shows the bad feelings. I also think it has a lot to do with personality, how you act with others. With Edd, well, he made the mistake of signing the contract which put him in prison for a few dollars. Whether he was a nice man or not… but Lana prob wasn’t very nice.

Interesting trivia. I remember both because of the two movies you mentioned: “A Summer Place” and “Imitation of Life”. Troy Donahue was in both movies though his part was so small in “Imitation of Life” he could easily have been forgotten. You shared some interesting trivia. Didn’t know his real name was Merle Johnson or that he was “Godfather II”.
-
REm. when Michael Corleone’s sister was thinking of going off with her boyfriend…that was ‘Merle Johnson’.

We have many such parents who indulge in all these acts and when their child is not wanting to study or not showing any interest. The come running to us to teach them saying they are finding it difficult to read and finish studies and the portion is too much for the dear child.
One more dialogue which we constantly hear from parents is that we have given our child to you now you please teach them like he is your child and make him into a genius. When told even they have to do certain thing for him to achieve success they say we do not have time as both of us are working that is why we are seeking your help to teach him. The thing is they do not want to do parenting but like to bear a child. Who will become future Dave’s at our place.

There are many different styles of raising children, all of which have differing effects on how they develop psychologically. It is important to be an authoritative parent, enforcing rules and expectations so that the child grows up with a learned sense of morality. However, parents who take their authority to an extreme level, expecting unquestioned obedience from their child, are known as authoritarian parents. This parenting style has negative effects of the social and cognitive development of children.
Authoritarian parenting is often characterized by strict rules and harsh punishments. These parents often shame their children and display a withdrawal of love and affection, as a form of punishment. The harsh, cold environment of fearful compliance that exists within authoritarian households, has many disadvantages on the development of children and adolescents.
Children raised by strict, authoritarian parents are more likely to have little self esteem and self-management when they reach adulthood. This is because blind obedience does not leave room for that child to learn how to self-regulate. They are more likely become depressed and show signs of anger outside the home. Also, for kids raised this way, juvenile delinquency is a common way of exercising their independence. Authoritarian parenting often teaches the child to only do what is right when a figure of authority is around, and it also teaches them to become excellent liars.
-
Strict parenting is typically referred to as the authoritarian parenting style because strict parents tend to impose a rigid structure of rules upon their children.
In a strict home, parents expect children to follow rules without question. While parents must be strict sometimes, particularly when it comes to issues like your child’s safety, using this style of parenting in every aspect of your child’s life can cause problems.
