I work in a call centre in Norwich and we've just been told our jobs
are
moving to India. I'm so excited!
I've always wanted to visit India and with the salary they pay me I'll
be able to live like a Maharaja over there. Well done Aviva, keep up
the
good work.

What is it with diabetics? One minute they're on the floor with a loved
one standing by screaming "Give him some chocolate! Give him some
chocolate!"
The next day someone offers them a piece of chocolate and quick as a
flash they say "No thanks, I'm diabetic." I wish they'd get their story
straight.

Why is it always people who say 'bring back hanging'
who also say 'hanging's too good for them'? Make your right wing minds

ACCORDING to the BBC website, Heather Mills has blamed the breakdown of
her marriage to Sir Paul McCartney on 'constant intrusion' into the
couple's private life. It seems a shame that Heather objects so much to
the public taking an interest in her personal business. If only she had
mentioned it in one of her two published autobiographies, A Single Step
and Out On A Limb,or the 'About Heather' section of her website
www.heathermillsmccartney .com, or perhaps when she sold her life story
to the News of the World in 1993.
Perhaps then the public would have got the message and left her to live
her life out of the constant glare of publicity.

car parks and gang raping women in hotel rooms. Let's give credit where

Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7
I know Firefox is suppose to be the safest web browser available. But my experiences with it have been pretty bad. I scan my computer for viruses, adware, & spyware every day. After I downloaded the Firefox software, I found 4 viruses. I found about 6 adwares on my computer every day I used it but one I think. And the last day I used it, I found a dialer on my pc. In contrast, I found no viruses after installing IE 7, rarely find any adwares on my pc, & have never found a dialer. But maybe my experiences are unusual. What do you all think?
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7
I run Ad-Aware, Spybot, and Kaspersky and Symantec virus scans weekly... but only cuz I'm anal about such crap.
Haven't had a red flag come up even once.

RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7: To Opera User
I use AVG anti-virus, Spyware Terminator, Web Security Guard, & Comodo Pro Firewall
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7
I think anti-virus programs are to blame. I had AVG, scanned computer ...it said I didn't have any virus', then I install McAfee, slows down my computer but it found 6 virus'. Computer too slow so I get NOD 32, got another virus. And I updated them almost daily. Go figure.
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7: To Ebola
A Dell tech I spoke with recently said AVG is a good anti-virus
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7: To Ebola
if the free version is so good, why wound anyone pay for the other?
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7
On my machine I'm using Opera browser - very comfortable and enough safe one, I like it. Also installed Nod32 antivirus with active monitoring, Comodo firewall, Ad-Aware and recently Spybot. I am not 100% sure of course but seems my system is ok. At least scanning isnt showing I have smth bad.
It is important to have a right settings of your firewall otherwise it's useless. Then you can be quite sure in your browser.

RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7
I am fine, too laughing girl, but a little depressed. No snow here either....and I'm afraid I've got worse news. I spoke to my dad this morning, and I asked him if Santa Claus will come when I go home to visit for Xmas. He told me that because I'm more than 40 years old now, that it was time that he'd tell me the truth. Turns out that he and my mom have been conning me for all these years. Jeezzz...if you cannot even trust your own parents, then who can you trust? Anyway...otherwise my weekend is just fine, ty for wishing me a happy sunday. :) I don't know your screen name, but if you cc mail me a xmas greeting, I promise you that I'll send you one, too. Hugs!

And if you really want to you can run IE as well. But who the hell would want to? ;)

RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7
All the browsers seem to have some issues. Firefox runs poorly on Vista and IE7 eats up too many Windows "Handles", Opera doesn't work with all javascript. Some things work only in IE. There is no way to use just one...
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7: To cryptguardian
The fact that all sites are compatible with IE 7 is another thing I like about it. You can't use just Firefox or just Opera
RE: Firefox vs. Internet Explorer 7: To cryptguardian
I use Bit Defender. Its top rated by Consumer Reports. I tried IE7 and it sucked so I went back to IE6.

RE: wat is love?
i guess that about sums it up.......i dont think i could add one word.....beautiful crush
RE: wat is love?
I think you mean without the other person feeling remorse, right? Well, I'd still say that would depend a lot on the fart... ;)
RE: wat is love?
but all that could apply to your dog - - it's also being with the person who most excites you, when all others seem dull by comparison.
RE: wat is love?
Scientists havent proved yet that animals can feel such deep and very human emotion as love, not known if they have consciousness either.So how is it possible to apply to the dog?
RE: wat is love?
U need to ask about that feeling between two people when there r no questions,no need to prove anything, when ur just happy to see her/him and even a fact of his/her existence in the same world with u makes u smile, and maybe he/she doent know u love,but it doesnt matter,coz ur ready to give ur life for his/her and dont ask anything in return...because love is far from being egoistic, love doent ask and doent tie u with promices...Seems am quite sentimental thou lol U got me right?:P
RE: wat is love?
Moodysnake, I will venture to make a wild guess...not a pet owner, are you? Or, if you are, judging by your nick, is it perhaps a pet snake with a reptilian brain? ;)
I'm not attacking your position, because you're perhaps right that scientists have yet to prove that animals can display "human" emotions, such as love. Or, even if they have any degree of consciousness at all.
This is one of those areas of discussion where I would venture to say that so called "Scientists" (i.e. not true scientists...who are seekers of knowledge) are woefully inadequate and arrorgant in the application of their methods. So, in the absence of any "scientific" proof....let's try to apply COMMON SENSE instead, heh?
To make my point, I own an Amazon parrot that speaks in complete sentences. You will have to agree that this in and by itself puts him way ahead of some members who are posting on this board on a regular basis, right?. Also, my parrot says "Goodbye!" when I leave for work in the morning, and greets me when I come home. If I do something that displeases him, like putting him in his cage when he wants to be around me....he yells "Stop it!" I did not teach him these things, as I adopted him from a previous owner. He gets excited when he hears children's voices, and loves music. I would estimate his vocabulary to be in the range of about 100 words. If I'm stressed out and rushed, he is likely to bite me. Painful, by the way...this is a guy that cracks walnuts with his beak on a daily basis! He clearly prefers a more "mellow" person as a companion. At other times...he sits on my shoulder and nibbles gently on my ear. Both he and I know that he could easily shred my ear like a leaf of lettuce. Doesn't that sound intelligent to you?
To "agrees" post, which you replied to.., growing up...I also had the fortune to raise a German Shepard. That dog loved me more than I can ever fully comprehend. I think that whereas dogs generally show unconditional love and affection, parrots love conditionally. They have not yet been domesicated to the extent of their canine counterparts. By comparison to dogs, I believe that owning a parrot is more like having a wild wolf as a pet....with the intelligence of a 3 year old kid! So far, "Science" has failed miserably in understanding these animals; most of the books about parrot behavior published only a few years ago can be thrown in the garbage can. But, we humans are learing so fast...and in the process of learning to understand animals, we're also learning a lot about ourselves. We are NOT as "intelligent" as we think ourselves to be... As for consciousness, that's a whole different bowl of wax!
So, my main point here is to point out the impotence of science to provide any real guidance in such matters. And of course, the same goes for the topic of falling in love.

More on the dollar
The falling dollar has prompted several European firms to consider moving some operations to the United States. Among the firms involved are Airbus, Nokia, Fiat, Volkswagen and BMW. The following is from an article on a financial news source.
"Strong euro squeezes Airbus
Executives at EADS, the Franco-German aerospace consortium that owns Airbus, see the dollar's decline as a serious threat, which may force the company to move a large part of its production to 'the dollar zone' or low-cost countries."
So the falling dollars is not all bad news.

RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
A bird. Noisy, Dirty, A regular pain in the ass. Then again he kept me company for years, sang beautifully on spring mornings and listened to me when I was drunk, sad or angry. I finally gave him to a friend who was really into birds. He is living large now spending all his time outside of his cage. Wish I could say the same.
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
shoes from my girls two sizes too big
Dress shirt from my son two sizes too big
piece of ass from my wife again two sizes too big
Dress shirt from my son two sizes too big
piece of ass from my wife again two sizes too big
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
LoveRushka,size doesnt matter ,coz there r no too small sizes, there r only too inexperienced men:P
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
Your comment reminds me of a cartoon I saw years ago: A guy is kneeling at his bedside praying and says, "Lord, I don't ask for much, but I do ask that it be of good quality." :)
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
when i was real young, i got a bag of switches,, parents told me to keep them under the bed
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
Just goes to show that "nothing" can be something after all!
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
An STD, but thankfully it went away with a visit to the doctor..Guess when she said "I love you baby" , I wasn't the only one.
RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
I once got a prawn on my bd, with fishbowl and all. Yes, i said a PRAWN (some crustacean that looks like a shrimp).
Since they live like 2-3 weeks in average, it died after 1 week of getting him.
RIP Benito

RE: What was the worst present you ever got?
Well the worst received one I ever gave a a miniature coal bucket with hard licorice candy in it and a little hammer. It had a sticker on it that said, "For those who were naughty." She accepted it graciously. A few months later I asked why she never wore the watch I gave her for Christmas, she said, "You only gave me some lousy candy" -- the watch was under the candy. This is when I discovered she threw it out the candy without digging down in it for the watch.
RE: What do you want...
Of course we would all like lots of money, but giving money is often a failure of imagination on the part of the giver. If someone gives us a gift because they know we have a particular passion for something, then it touches us and we often remember it--or have it--- for years, if not a lifetime. However, an equivalent sum of money is easily forgotten because it is impersonal. In the end something of little monetary value can be of great value to us. A young girl whose grandmother gives her a piece of jewelry of little monetary worth will treasure it for a lifetime.
RE: What do you want...
I would like to have the will to go to the gym every day, I would like some extra money. Not enough to get in trouble but enough to be able to do nice things for friends and family. I would like more time in my life to do things I enjoy doing. I would like more warm sunny days and pleasant evenings with a light breeze. I would like more time to spend at the beach. I would like to meet some of the hosts here outside of CC and see if they are as wonderful as I think they are. I would like to die someday with no regrets. That's all I want. EZ Breezy.

next/back buttons on pics
Camcontacts, I noticed today that the next/back buttons, when you open a picture of a chathost, are gone. I request to put them back as it was easy to scroll the pictures
thank you
thank you
RE: next/back buttons on pics
I am a member since 2003 and I will repeat my request to CC directly via mail too. I'm sure they will answer.
RE: next/back buttons on pics
If he'd not been a member (as now confirmed anyway) he wouldn't have been able to view the pics in the first place, and thus to notice the buttons had gone. Not the brightest of punctuation marks are we? lol
RE: next/back buttons on pics
seems u aint the brightest of puntuation marks coz even if u aint a member u CAN see pic...just not all of them..only the ones hosts allow guests 2c..DUH...
RE: next/back buttons on pics
...but in reality only a small fraction of just one per cent of the pictures are freely viewable to all...too small a number to be statistically relevant, and self-evidently not the pictures which were being referred to in this context.
RE: next/back buttons on pics
Why are you so bitchy? Calm down will you?
The quicker I can browse through a decent selection of photos the quicker I make a choice and start spending money. If I have to select each picture individually the quicker I give up and try another site.

translation software
The translation software some of the Russian hosts use is a bit stilted, but still very understandable. Does anyone know what they use?
RE: translation software
Well as far as i know,some hosts use such programm as Lingvo diffrent versions or Socrat:P Hope u wont die curious now lol
good luck
good luck
RE: translation software
Yes, I was very curious. Which one keeps translating "you" as "thee"?
RE: translation software
Have no idea,coz Lingvo is an exellent translator,includes a few languages and has scientific section,biological,etc so is possible to get a translation for each special word,but as i know there is nothing abt old english,but Lingvo can translate it thou.But only if u write something like "three" in english ull get "you" in russian, not on the contrary. And what abt Socrat is just weak translator at all,i have doubts there is huge vocabulary in general lol So maybe hosts using three as you just look this in usual vocabulary,which were published many years ago?:P
RE: translation software
I'm enough satisfied by "Translite 7.3.17" which lightened version has 200002 words and the full version has 3.500.000 words. Also it has active mode translation with pointing a word by cursor and supports many applications. Has a learner mode, has its own keyboard and can be used for transliteration (alike "Punto Switcher")
There are also some other languages translators.

Wonder Why
As I get to know more hosts here one thing keeps getting mentioned when we get comfortable with each other. It seems that many of these hosts are single yet they have kids and have never been married.
Now this happens in any culture to a degree but it seems to happen more so in Russia. Am I mistaken or is this true and is considered acceptable there or birth control is just not used in general?

RE: Wonder Why
I would say it's more so in general in Russia, but you have to consider, these beautiful ladies deal with sex related issues almost everyday, it's bound to carry over in their personal life.
RE: Wonder Why
You didn't make it any smarter . In fact it's a very interesting topic. Get a life.
RE: Wonder Why
what's so interesting. determining whether russian girls here havemore illegitimate children than say romanians or filipinas. if yo cll that having life little man you are in serious need of professional help
RE: Wonder Why
Your reading comprehension isn't the best is it? He said get a life, not discussing this topic is his idea of having a life. Seems we now know who needs the professional help (from an 10th grade English teacher)
RE: Wonder Why
well dont join in then. if you have such an amazing topic to discuss, then go right ahead, start another thread. if people want to discuss a subjuct then they have the right, even if you dont like it.
RE: Wonder Why
Well... Look at social security in Russia. The reliability of men. The possibility of getting a good job as a single mother. The Russian girls here are not sex workers that don't care about contraceptions. They are sex workers because it is often the only possibility to earn enough for them and their kids.
RE: Wonder Why
Not sure if you live in the USA but single motherhood is epidemic in the USA. Look at the birth announcements. Many just show the mom's name, even those with both parents doesn't mean the dad will be in the baby's life. In the inner city in particular it is a real problem. But the suburbs and rural areas have their share. I forget who has the stats for the US. I would suspect we out single mother Russia by a mile. First we win the cold war and now the single mom race. What a country.
RE: Wonder Why
i've heard that abortion rates are relatively high in russia and that the birth rate is pretty low too. to think that there might be a high number of single mothers as well seems kinda strange.
RE: Wonder Why
I think the reality is that a lot of these women say they are single but really are married; its just a variation of the "Im free and single" CC routine........................
RE: Wonder Why
Many reasons I'm sure . but Vodka being the national drink of choice might have something to do with it. That stuff will make you promise things you can't remember in 2 hours much less 9 months later.
RE: Wonder Why
yep, its us brits who are the alcoholics. vodka, wisky, beer, whatever, if its wet it will go down. sorry to go of the subjuct
RE: Wonder Why
just as i finished that post an advert came on tv, pyccknn ctah?apt, russian standard, russias number 1 premium vodka. lol
RE: Wonder Why
it's just a joke . take it easy. But, I do know what you mean by stereotypes though . Just because I'm handsome doesn't mean I'm stupid.. ::)
RE: To
I just could say, if the general forum is boring and all the same, whats then about the viewers forum... The same stuff all the time...pussies, tits, asses and prices...lol. Well, up to them...
RE: To
"all the time...pussies, tits, asses and prices" Wow guys there really is a woman who understands us! Now if we can just get her to approve sports and beer we'll have found the perfect woman!
RE: To
I enjoy your posts Laughing girl. Thankyou!
They are inspiring!
Something people really need.
Keep it up !!! :)

RE: To
wonder how long it will take the members to figure out that anyone can read the viewer's forum. you don't even have to login to the site just go to the home page and hit forums/viewers forum. then again we are talking about members, not usually the brightest bulbs in the pack
RE: To
Agree. If u dont like it here why dont u try to make it fun, bright and exciting instead of cruing how "boring" it is?
RE: Guys
There is I love you and I love you. I find it hard to believe an intelligent woman could fall in love at CC without actually meeting the member. I mean they might love to see the member in their video spending money, or chatting with them in text chat to pass the time, or helping them dream about a mythical perfect future life together but actual love? Not likely. Like with any job people often like their customers very much. In some cases they think they are in love with them. But in reality most hosts real lives have nothing to do with CC. They are different people outside of the studio. And to answer your question....yes I believed it once here and I was wrong.
RE: Guys
In the immortal words of a Chinese girl I know, it's called "sweet bullshit" . Ahh yes. Gotta love that stuff.

There are two things that drive a woman to strip on a cam site: Desperation or a cold heart.
The exceptions are one in a hundred.

Look...I don't know if they have a movie rating system where you are but in the USA they do. G, PG,, R and X. In my mind I place Non-Adult in the G-PG category. Nothing too sexual, a little teasing, clever sexy talk, thats it. R is for Glamour. Nudity...generally topless with panties. Everything else in my book including little shy is X. Which is adult. If you dont want to strip naked stay in G PG or R. Simple. The categories are pretty well defind. (Glamour is a little vague but that is the result of some hosts dropping their pants 10 seconds into the video and others who act like nuns.)
RE: for members...very important
simpler of you heed cc guidlines instead of using your own misguided lines :--)
RE: for members...very important
It was an analogy to provoke discussion sod. Up the Rebels and thanks for the feedback.
RE: for members...very important
so it provoked discussion,at least from me,but you didn't like my opinion so now i'm a sod.strange.maybe you wanted fawning appreciation,not discussion.sorry to rock your boat of admiration :--)
RE: for members...very important
Totally agree!!! We CANT guess what u want and if u want to get a good show - u should give a hint or tell what DO U LIKE!!
if u enter my room and ask me "get nasty" i dont know what s nasty for u!

we are humans! simple girls and posible most of us dont have a huge sexual expirience or dirty mind!

For future reference here's what I want personally (excluding the concept of world peace , an end to hunger and care for all children) 1. A Ferrari F1.. 2. A round the world cruise with a fabulous lady who believes I am heaven sent. 3. Stocks and Bonds. 4. My back massaged twice a day. That's about covers it for now I think.
He has a point ...
Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official, 'You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done.'
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued, 'Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?'
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied. 'When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water.
Women did all the work, Medicine man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex.'
Then the chief leaned back and smiled. 'Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that.'
