shah269 0 #78 November 23, 2011 So all this was happening all along but now thanks to a freer flow of information more of us know about it? Be it pushing to find loop holes around taxes or pressure to provide the growth that was projected to meet shareholder demands? See we can have a civil discussion. Who knew?Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

Who knew? because something is new to you does not make it new. because you now understand something does not mean it was missunderstood by others all along. sorry if that sounds condecending. picture me smiling when i wrote it."The point is, I'm weird, but I never felt weird."

shah269 0 #80 November 23, 2011 No not at all condescending. We live to learn, if we are not learning we are not living. And learning requires questioning and putting one's self out there. Some fear this I have no worries. If don't know I ask, if I'm wrong I learn. Why do you think I enrolled in an MBA program? For the free lunch and the cute soccer moms?Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

CanuckInUSA 0 #81 November 23, 2011 QuoteThe name of the movie was: http://en.wikipedia.org/...Pursuit_of_Happyness Not sure why you brought this movie up in this thread, but I watched it last night through a $0.99 rental at iTunes and it was good. From what I understand this movie is based on real life events and life kept throwing shit sandwiches at the movie's main character Chris Gardner (played by Will Smith) and Mr Gardner kept on soldier on. Yes it was clear at times Mr Gardner was at or near rock bottom and was clearly frustrated. But he never gave up. I wonder how many of today's generation of entitled "Occupiers" would be able to dig as deep as Mr Gardner did.

It was clarification of Billvon's post #11 as to the "recent movie."Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

If I am not mistaken he is a rich man these days, but you can't say he never earned it. Kudos for Mr Gardner for never giving up.
