Interesting Reading: Lessan

Something I read and thought I should share.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened,

ambition inspired, and success achieved.

Very wise words. My 2 cents for the day are:

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power."

Cheers guys!

I’d say:

Life is a doughnut, take a bite.

Maybe something more serious…

If you look around at your life and you and don’t see any big strong problems I suggest you go home tonight and Pray to God, and say God don't you trust me ( N. Pearce thro A. Robbins)

I suppose I may as well throw in my personal faves;

Strictly speaking, they aren't quotes but you'll be hard pressed to find better pieces.

If you haven't heard of Max Ehrmann or Rudyard Kipling, then you need suffer no more:

Is this some sort of a club (like a book club) that you people belong to?

Please keep sending these inspiring stuff, who knows - maybe one day I will unleash one of my own!

Did you guys know that embalming someone when they are alive is as near to ‘perfect’ murder as you can get?
Anonymous said…
Yes - I watched something like that on Navy NCIS (on KTN) yesternite.

Qn, what does the process of embalming involve?
Anonymous said…
The way I understand it, it’s preserving of the body so that there is no rotting of the body kinda what they used/still? do to the mummies, the skin colour, the organs in the body are left in perfect conditions.

Preserve the skin colour and you can’t tell when the guys died, if the body organs are in perfect conditions, can’t tell what killed the guy, drain all the blood and replace with embalming liquids, can’t remember the name, and you have a perfect body!! No marks on the body – can’t tell the murder weapon

You guys… I don’t think you should pay too much attention to Lizzie when she’s off ranting and raving about murder… THIS IS THE WOMAN WHO KNOWS 250+ methods of KILLING A PERSON… AND NOT GETTING CAUGHT… my advice would be to keep a safe distance away from her, pray for the guys in her department and if possible the moderator of this list should filter her “murder” e-mails out…

By the way, this is Kenya.

So a good traditional beating to the death is more ideal.

Then you can throw the jamaa in Maasai Mara.

Unless it is a Julie Ward, that’s more than adequate.

But I guess you can do the Lizzie thing then oxidize if one of those IT managers gets to ur nerves Nick.

Lui, what happens after beating someone to death even in Kenya, you get caught right? Given that you want to kill someone and get away with it, at least I know I would, no way I want to be a guest of the state in Kenya and esp not after reading the article in Nation today.



So when you want to get away with it esp in Kenya where there is CSI with state of the art investigative gizmos, then embalming is the way to go plus the other 250+ methods I know of.



Nicholas, is just being paranoid. Like I say, if you are my pal nothing to worry, on the other hand should that change…

Ok… given that the theory of “thought power” tells us that “you become what you think about most of the time”, I really don’t think I’m being paranoid… Now consider an example of someone (I’m not mentioning names) who watches, learns, reads, analyses murder to the depth that someone (I’m still not mentioning names) does… If they become what they think about most of the time they might become vicious killers (worst case scenario) or maybe necrophiliacs (less worse scenario)

You are assuming the person(s) you are so intent on not naming, subscribe to the theory of "thought power."

The wonderful thing about truth is that it doesn’t require anyone to believe it for it to be true.. eg the sun rises in the east whether you believe it or not.. “Thought power” is a fact, whether someone subscribes to it or not…

How to Keep the Bedroom Exciting

I'm in turmoil. I'm puzzled about something? How the hell can a man keep a woman happy over the long term? The Problem When a relationship begins everything is extremely intense. The conversations are intense. Every moment spent in each other's presence is dense with electricity between the two. The heat as the lovers gravitate towards each other is so powerful that the only possible response is to rip off each other's clothes to cool the flames of desire. The sex is explosive... nuclear explosive... The man can do no wrong and his love is always dynamic, new, amazing, nasty, different.... When the man says he's coming into town, the girl almost collapses, weak at the knees, loins burning with the rivers of desire as she awaits the tryst. One year down the line, the man calls the woman to tell her he's coming to town and her response is less than stimulating. Her heart doesn't flutter, her breath doesn't get shallow, her cheeks don't get flushed, she

How To Make A Woman Do Anything In Bed

When Paul sent me this, I was a bit nervous about posting it. However, it's simply too good to keep to myself. Enjoy his wisdom. I love porn. I'm a man. Of course I love porn. When I watch Briana Banks , Jenna Jameson or Flick Shagwell do their thing, I can't help but wish that my girlfriend would be as freaky, playing with toys, sloppy blow jobs, anal craziness and experimenting with hard core bedroom games. In my first couple of relationships, I would suffer in silence. Sure, I was having plenty of sex but no one could come close to my favourite porn stars. The good news is that with age comes experience. I've learned how to turn every woman I sleep with into a bona fide porn star . These days, even the most frigid, conservative and church going women end up turning into raging nymphomaniacs. ( I'm assuming you already have a woman you can use this on. This article won't tell you how to actually get a woman. ) Your wife is a porn star T
