Those who are long-term married, what do you think is the most important thing? Married 24 years. The most important thing is compromise. To let go of your ego; first with your wife, and then with children.

I am against this change. This introduces unnecessary bureaucracy into our system and makes the process slow. People who are active, even semi-active can change their vote if the pre-proposal is changed.

I think it was available at Prime, but I can't remember...I am sure you will be able to find it.

London is always worth coming to. I love the city, and wish I can go there and stay a bit longer exclusively for holidays with nothing specific to do.

Thank you! I write whenever I feel like. You probably noticed this multiple times that my style of writing is totally dependent on my mood and the moment. These days the only currency I care about is time,

Work takes me there...

Aha! Married a Kazak! I have many Kazak friends. And Russians who live there and work oil fields

It is indeed a horror flick

Yes, GOP is certainly doing so!

When Putin says; teachers win wars; you better believe him! Yes, similar things are happening at a muted level at HISD. We are fighting and resisting. This gives us the end member scenario.
