    Hello fellow members, I am starting something new called the, "Ask Joe Column" you can ask me any questions pertaining to myself, to you, advice seeking, love, friendship, etc. Ask me about almost anything at all, as long as it applies to the rules and regulations of the site.

    The Tasteless: It is highly possible that some point in the future a 3rd world country would end up giving their land up. But then again it is just as likely that the US or Canada or anyother country would do the same.

    My point is, you never know what the future will bring. We can guess, make calculations, and do all this stuff, but we will never truly know what the future ahead holds for us.

    So is it possible for all mentioned above to happen in the future? Yes.

    Is it plausable to actually take place? Who really knows.

    Britt: Ok, I am going to answer a lot more than what you asked about the subject because I feel like it.

    I personally look for someone who is understanding, caring and loves me for who I am as well as my friends. There are many other qualities such as honesty, trust, and so forth.

    As far as what she looks like, she is my age, dark sleek hair, petite but not too small, beautiful smile, beautiful voice, and the eyes of an angel.

    A few dislikes of mine (something I don't look for in a relationship), would have to be cheating, lieing, not being trusted, etc.

    Now from my knowledge on relationships, perhaps the most important thing that I've learned is that different people have different notions of love. Love, quite simply, has different meanings. Some people toss the word "love" around as casually as the word "cool," or some other word that conveniently seems to fit into nearly every other sentence. Some hold it in reserve, treating the word itself with a certain degree of respect, only to be spoken in the most serious and personally involved context imaginable. Still, others shun the word almost entirely, treating it as if it's something that's meant exclusively for the foolhardy or young and rambunctious.

    I suspect that time has changed and evolved the majority notion of love, and that, more specifically, people of the younger generations are mostly more casual with the word, not fully comprehending it's truest meaning or its absolute potential. This suspicion (it is merely that), is based on my observation of relationships between friends of mine over the years.

    Maybe it is just the people that I have observed, mostly single people which are the type that go out to clubs, parties, and sports centers to meet women/men. Sometimes they'll have casual sex with the women/men they meet and that'll be it. Sometimes they'll date for a while and when the sex gets boring or they find something "better," they break up and repeat the process. This seems to be the typical process for finding a companion today.

    I have a theory. My theory is that everyone has their own unique perspective on love. But each perspective can be categorized, and in order for any relationship to work out ("work out" as in, result in eventual marriage and last until death due our part), both participants must be in the same category when it comes to their perspective on love. Now, obviously there are other factors that might cause a relationship to fail, but this is one of the few factors that I believe applies to everyone.

    Now I want you to Describe sad...you can't.

    Describe happy...you can't.

    It is the same with love...you can't describe it.

    Love is a feeling, everyone has different feelings, you can't describe how someone feels, for you can't tell them how they feel.

    We know what all the other mods look like... why not you?

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Sherry: Well we really don't know what all the other Mods/Admin look like. (Granted that I've seen all of you in pictures) But what about the members? Ann has a Cat as a picture. Bob has a Picture with several people in it. Dainz doesn't even have a picture and Janis has a drawing of a picture.

    I don't put my picture up for people to see, because I like the mystery. It keeps people interested in something (like the Phantom of the Opera...lol he is pretty well known, but know one knows what he looks like nor have ever seen him)

    At one point in time I actually did have a picture of me on here, but I removed it and replaced it with the Italian Stallion Picture.

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Sam: Bob most likely doesn't "Wee" due to the fact that he has no reculation of what it means nor who started it. Perhaps you can PM him and give him a kind and sincere explanation of what it is and what it does for those that use it. ;)

  • Sherry Lynn
    17 years ago

    OMG Sam! I cannot believe that you done that

    LMAO.... too funny!

  • Italian Stallion

    Bob: Well after doing some pondering, my name would be....Candie Lane.

    lmfao

    I thought about it, and I know what I want to ask you:

    What would you do for a Klondike bar? I've always wanted to know what a real person who isn't getting paid to film the commercials would do.

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Jordan: This is an interesting question which indeed probally made you think for a while.

    What would I do for a Klondike Bar? My god, I haven't had one in ages. Well I would pay for one...lol

    Joe:

    I am asking all the mods this...

    Since becoming a mod has it made being a member on this site easier or harder for you?

    What is the one thing that you have done as a mod that you are the most proud of?

    What is the one thing you have done as a mod that you regret the most?

    And finally... If you could change one thing about this site...ANYTHING... what would it be?

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Sherry: In all honesty I would have to say it is split right down the center 50/50.

    The reason I say this is because, yes it has made it easier for myself to learn and understand the craft of writting better (which I still have much to learn). It has also given me tools in which I can access and use if needed which made it a lot easier when I saw a potential problem.

    Now it has also made it hard a little bit, since I get flooded with PM's/emails about stuff all the time (which I can't really complain since a lot of it helps in the process of making the site a better place) I also get hate mail sometimes (which a lot of Mods have gotten at one point) So naturally it became harder for myself to find time to do all that is needed in being a Moderator and writting poetry.

    One of the proudest moments for me as a Mod would have to be when I wrote a bunch of code for the site (when Janis wasn't even active, and no one else knew except the other mods) and not even knowing if it would be used or implemented. For me, that was a proud moment, taking action on something and trying to resolve problems when in the long run I wasn't even sure if Janis was comming back or if he would implement them to the site. As long as I tried to make the site better, it made myself happier as well as the other Mods (at least on my part, but they where mad at Janis for not being there at the time)

    One thing I regret the most is bringing friendships/relationships to the job sort-to-speak. I involved past friendships/relationships with being a mod. I cut them breaks, let them off easy, or just favored them over others. (which was wrong and I no longer do nor am I proud of it)

    Well honestly there is a lot I have been coding and Janis and I have been implementing to the site. So there isn't much I can think of since a lot of it is being worked on, but one thing I would change would be the update system, I would make it update more frequently (only for certian parts of the site)

    Hey, Joe. remember me? >_>

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Milton: Yes, I do remember you even though it's been quiet a while.

    Sam: Only for you my dear, only for you...lmfao *Smiles* ;)

    "Good morning good morning.....it's great to be up late....good morning to you and you and you and you..."

    Go to love movie quotes...haha!!!

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    The Tasteless: To be quiet honest, it would be kind of depressing, but all-in-all if that was the outcome, I would do research on the past 5 years of my life that I have missed.

    I'd read the old newspapers, read online, goto classes, etc. I would try to learn as much as I could about what I missed, who died, who became rich, who the president was, forigen affairs, etc. etc.

    Any and ever bit of information I would take in and fully analyze it.

    Everything is worth something wheather it be money or knowledge.

    And like I always like to say, my favorite quote is:

    "THE WAY TO KNOWLEDGE IS
    LEARNING.... THE WAY TO LEARNING
    IS ASKING...."

    Question for Joe.

    Considering I am Italian, which part of Italy do you or your family/heritage come from?

    Ours come from Cosenza. My dad and myself born here, but my Grandad (dad's dad [dec]) was born in Italy.

    Would be interesting to know where abouts <3

    If your life were made into a movie, what would you title it?

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Nicoleey: My family is from Bagaria, Sicily. My parents and my brother and I were born in the US, but my grandparents on my mothers side were born in Italy.

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Beautiful Chaos: A very hard question to answer, however, I think my title would be, "Simple Kind Of Man"

    The reason being is:

    My life is nice and simple and that's how I like it. I'll take it one step at a time and see what it brings. Cause you see, I'm a simple kind of guy, I take life as it comes. I'm in no kind of rush, I just like to relax.

  • Nicole the Fairy
    17 years ago

    Ohh Okay.
    Very interesting ;]
    Does that mean your last name wouldn't sound Italian, like, ending in a vowel??
    Do you mean Bagheria???
    I couldn't find Bagaria in Sicily, so I figured it was spelt Bagheria. It is nearly next to Palermo??
    Also, do you speak Italian?
    Oh, and did you know, that Calabria (the city in which Cosenza is located) was connected to Sicily during the Roman empire, under Emperor Augustus? Interesting huh?
    I wanna go to Italy, travel to Cosenza, the birthplace of my Grandad and also go to Sicily, in order to view Mt Etna. My little sister done a project on Volcanoes, and I helped her with it > we researched all about Mt. Etna and now I have a bigger fascination with Italy than I did before!
    Haha.

    Thanks,

    - Nicole x

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Nicoleey: That is correct, my last name doesn't sound Italian at all. Yes, I meant Bagheria (Sorry, I was really tired when I answered your question)

    Yes, I can speak and write Italian, but not fluently.

    I just went to Italy last summer, I made a website, if you want to see it, send me a PM and I'll give you the link.

  • Nicole the Fairy
    17 years ago

    Haha okay.
    Sure you were tired.. * wink wink * Lol. Jks.
    Nahh it's okay.
    Hmm. Speak? Write? Thats pretty cool.
    I used to speak it alot when my Grandad was alive, but then just over 4 years ago he passed away and I have been more eager to get that good old Italian spirit back <3

    ;o Italy! Last Summer! Website! ;o
    You suck.
    I'm joking. <3

    I'm extremely envious.
    Sorry.

    My nana made me a deal -- if I can get into university and pass with flying colours, like, not just scrape in, then she will take me to Italy, the birthplace of my Grandad and then to England, the birthplace of her..
    Im pretty sure I'd rather go to Italy alone, but England, I have friends there so what the hell lol.
    But yea, that should be at the end of the year, providing I pull my finger out over the next week to catch up. I will, just to go to Italy -- oh, and also for my future. >.>
    Haha. Nahh, I wanna go soo badly. <3

    And yes. I will check out the website.
    I'll pm you in around 60 seconds ;]

    I'll also ask questions too.

    Thanks again,

    - Nicole x

    Why is that no one on this site seems to know the 3 presidential candidates are all on the same policy and part of CFR?

  • Italian Stallion
    17 years ago

    Tears i cry: I personally am not one to tell you what to do in a situation involving relationships. I'll give you my opinion, but by all means I want you to be the one who decides, since it is your life not mine.

    Personally, I'd move on, I mean if Matt is telling all his friends you had sex, then obviously he lies, and that is not good in a relationship.

  • Italian Stallion
    16 years ago

    Ryan: My guess is because people don't know what the CFR is. If they understood that it is a code that contains laws and regulations, etc. Then I think people would be more clear about the subject. Plus I'd like to add that a majority of the members on this site are young and probally don't follow as closely as the elders on this site.

  • Sherry Lynn

    Joe: What is fair for the goose is fair for the gander LOL....

    What would you change about me?

  • Italian Stallion
    16 years ago

    Sherry: I would change the fact that you don't have the time to enjoy yourself as much as you'd like to. You are always up and about and taking care of stuff. You really need time for yourself to just sit back and relax.

  • Sherry Lynn
    16 years ago

    Hmmm... hmmmm.... look who's talking LOL

    Oties: What is the one thing in life that you love and desire more than anything?

  • Italian Stallion
    16 years ago

    Sherry: Only one word will always and forever describe that and that word is, "Family"

  • Sherry Lynn
    16 years ago

    If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? Why?

  • Italian Stallion
    16 years ago

    Britt: The fact that you and Sherry like to use the same dam question I use on you guys...lmfao

    But really ahh, I would change the fact that hrmmm, I don't know...I guess my above answer is good enough.

  • Italian Stallion
    16 years ago

    The Tasteless: Free will, can be thought of many different ways. Some say it is impposible while others say it is possible. Is it truly possible? I think that question lies within each individual soul, wheater one' says it is or not is their own belief. This question is hard to answer since it is the same principle as asking a question such as, "Does God exist?" Since everyones views are different, some may say yes, and others will say no.

  • Italian Stallion
    16 years ago

    Sherry: You know I've done a few things that I regret doing in my lifetime, and I've done things that I am proud of. But in all honesty I wouldn't want to change a thing, because truly if I did then I wouldn't be the same person I am today.

    The past is what creates the present.
