I want to improve my English...

[Stanley]

Bueno, claro que sí. Escribiste exactamente lo que yo creía que ibas a escribir, lol. Tu monitor era el problema. Además, no te pregunté de la imagen de Suki, sin embargo quiero preguntarte algo más. Si vieses la sonrisa de Suki---------- ¿Que detalle muy notable de sus dientes advertiste?

Suki tiene unos dientes muy parejos y una sonrisa muy simetrica. Los labios son carnosos con un pico en el medio. La sonrisa es muy parecida a la de Lilly Estefan en Univisión.

Exactly what I wanted to read. However, she did send you pictures of her already so you could've known about the gap in her teeth anyway, lol. I'll let this go, but you can still ask her how I really look.

Thanks for correcting my Spanish. Can I ask you some questions about your corrections? Why ibas a escribir instead of escribirías? Don't they mean the samething? Doesn't sino, pero, and sin embargo practically mean the same thing? How would you write, it made me want to ask you something else? Thanks.

A pesar de haber nacido en los EEUU voz escribes el Español muy bién. El párrafo de arriba no está nada mal. El uso de las palabras "escribiste y escribirías" en la misma oración crea redundancia. Hay otras maneras mas elegantes y economicas de decir lo mismo. Por ejemplo podeís decir--------"escribiste lo que esperaba". Esto es mas corto y vá al grano.

"No te pregunté sobre la imagen de Suki, pero yá que la mencionas quiero preguntarte algo más."

Teneís un gran dominio del idioma y estas sugerencias las menciono para que veas que hay otras manera de decir lo mismo.

"Si vieses la sonrisa" o "si vieras la sonrisa"

"Cual es el detalle más característico en la dentadura de Suki?"

Benjamín Franklin aprendió a escribir con mucha elegancia copiando la prosa de otros. Además practicó noche y día hasta que logró su propio estilo. Muchos grandes compositores de la música clásica y romantica hicieron lo mismo. Quizás el El Cid/Madre Patria te pueda dar otras sugerencias. El Cid tiene mucho conocimiento del idioma de Cervántez.

Te confieso que poner los acentos es una chavienda (palabra Puertorriqueña).

To Stanley:

I should never had written that piece in personals about the older gentleman from New York. I did it at the time, being upset with his labeling me a fascist. Which I am not. Nor ever could be. I know how it feels to be pursued by the gov't (and how fascism can make you lose all that is most important your innocence, you sense of safety and in some cases even your life). I can't talk Stanley about my religion anymore. It is a private matter. And all the practices spoken of here are not what I believe in. In fact there are hundreds of sects and so different in philosophies from each other as night and day. The ones in Latin America are unique in character. But I won't elaborate. I am going to prove I have no intention of dominating anyone. How? I won't post anymore in many forums here that might have certain themes that are best left up to the older gentleman to answer. I truly hope he continues here. If he could have perceived my absolute lack of any kind of 'power play' needs. I only wanted a simple online friendship. That was it. I don't want to convince anyone or try to make them agree of how I think in that vector of theism. If only he knew I hold only good thoughts towards so many people of so many beliefs. He is a special man. And yet common. And I wish him all the best. My days here are numbered for sure. I can't talk about that either. But, I would hate for him to think all this time I have communicated with him was to put him down. No way!! I just can't have any kind of relationship with someone who opines I make them vomit. I can't.

I think I could speak to you about the Aztec/Spanish encounter with great details and absolutely wonderful historical facts Stanley. I did many years of research in that. I could speak to you about so many things. But, it is not going to happen. I leave things to others now. No more time. Ran out of time. And it is no one's fault. Just life. Just life.

Adios,

Suki.

AND I LEAVE MY LIGHT ON FOR ALL THOSE WHO CAN JUST SEE ME AS A FELLOW FLAWED HUMAN BEING JUST LIKE THEM LIVING IN THIS WORLD OF OURS. Peace to all. Pa siempre.

Holy Moly, here we go again with the bronca that I had consigned to the desuetude of archaic usages on this forum. Why is it that Bambinita never took offense when I referred to her attacking Camano and me, as being a 'femme nazi'? The cultural anthropologist on the other hand, who bore down on me by throwing potshots at me in posts in which I was not actively participating, and then got so bold as to start dissecting other posts that I was writing to OTHERS, estilo a.r./el jib, made me respond by telling her to stop using my name and dissecting my posts like they were specimens. She already had taken offense, it seems, at the fact that I would not tolerate her cursing and swearing at me on ICQ nor in e-mail. And I told her that because of this, I would block all further communication with her using those two methods. And that I did. And, moreover, this was way before I had ever called her a "femme nazi" because of her dominatrix ways. There is no excuse for her posting that scathing and scurrilous post in the General Personals; why she did it? Is it because I would not lay down and let her call me anything she wanted to in private? I don't know what emotions she has as a woman dictated her to do that. I told her a long time ago that woman is a mystery to me; why they act the way they do and talk the way they do is incomprehensible to me. And it will perhaps always be that way to me. However, no sweat, as I know how to stay within myself and not transgress beyond the boundaries of my human understanding. BTW, Bambinita thought that she had fixed the breakdown friendship-wise between me and the cultural anthropologist, no way, as she can see from the post that started this bronca smouldering again. But if Bambina reads this, please take note that I figured out who you meant when you said Chi-Ja, Chi-Ga, Chi-Su, Chi-cia. Why the mystery Bambinita, LOL! Mala Paga probably is current in this type of pig latin, and knows you mean him.

Lots of Luck,
EddieR

Suki:

Ed sigue enojado contigo y sigue bajando santos. Le llevé tu mensaje, pero aún lo consume la rabia. Estoy tentado a rebuscar que fué lo que le dijiste. Por más que intento no puedo entender esta pelea entre camaradas.

Es posible que en algun momento Ed tambien te tuvo en un pedestal y tus palabras de reprocho resonaron muy alto. Le has ofendido de una manera muy grave y parece que noy hay una resolución en camino.

Porqué no olvidas el asunto y le das tiempo al tiempo. Trate de ser amable y cortez sin traer el tema de la controversia en todo momento--------------- A la larga todo se olvida.

Stan, all that took place in this incident took place in English. So if you will bear with me, I must say that being rabid is for animals and not for humans; not only that, but when in the course of my duties, I had to frecuent a region that was rife with rabid dogs, a truly backward out of control third world country, I underwent a most painful and stressful series of innoculations, in order to be immune to any bites by rabid animals. It was a painful way to get vaccinated but because of the really serious dangers of hydrophobia, it had to be done that way. Now, and ever since then, I can go into water and beat a rabid dog or animal to death without any possiblity of contracting that horrendous disease. This wasn't for everyone of course, but the vector demanded that it be done. So, then, I have never been rabid nor distempered, but have always tried to problem solve by using reason, conscience, and social responsibility, ultimately to reach a solution that is the antithesis in its unity. However, sometimes it takes time, and the classic adage is that time heals all wounds. Therefore, I was willing to wait patiently for all the dust of the incident to settle, but it was not to be. The cultural anthropologist reopened old wounds quickly, as you can see by the former post of her's that prompted my Holy Moldy reply Ha Ha. I don't bear any grudge towards her, even though she sweet-talked me into reading what she wrote on the general personals forum, and yep; it was like hearing an "angel's voice" that had suddenly and viciously turned into the trueno of a hell's angel, who curses and swears at individuals while sending them into the flames of hell. Whoa! I am not a religionist, but culturally considered that isn't the way a lady is supposed to behave. Now, I added as I told her, already, that women as they evolved and are accepted in society are generally a mystery to me. Yet, ladies who become treasures of communism are NOT a mystery to me; it's definitely an improvement because they participate in the communal mind-set we have, and what one thinks and responds to, all can think and respond to. And so the mystery is over then and there! But women like the "cultural anthropologist" do not participate in that community mind-set, and will always remain a mystery to me. That they can hurt me, of course, since I am a human being and not per se an animal. But that she can ever harm me that is not really possible in the light of the very many ladies who have become treasures of scientific socialism, and all know where we are coming from. Thanks, anyway, for your input, but I think it isn't going to matter, since she has her Papotito, and ends all her posts with a brief love letter to him. Why the hell he hasn't come to this forum and participated, knowing how his wife is, I can only conjecture about? He came once, said she, with the screename El Pastelero, wrote once and fled the forum since he did not receive an immediate response. Kind of wimpy I thought of him. Does Pastelero mean a baker in his notions?, not sure because that would make him the baker and his wife the oven. Hmmmmmm....no...ummm, no, no, I better stop right here before this post gets out of control. LOL!!!!!!

Regards,
EddieR
