		<description>Observer : Just because you can't walk straight, doesn't mean others can't too you know? ;)

Observer II : What subject was I talking about again? Women being vocal amongst men, no? What subject were some of you interested and wanted to probe further again? And lastly, before I excuse myself from such entertaining comments by some of you here, aren't you talking about me too? Of course you're not, you're just talking about a hair dryer. LOL.</description>

		<description>It is interesting to note that she can talk about a subject and when you get interested and probe further, you are accused of being rude by intruding on her personal life. Also you do not understand her. Of cause we don't cause we are not her. But why is she thinking that it is all about her and always so defensive over it. Why's the sensitivity?. 

She herself can't keep it objective and always keep thinking that it is about her.....A discussion with her is like talking to a hair dryer. Hot air is what you get.</description>

		<description>I know some people who likes to give financial management advise. Most of it nothing more than just Kiyosaki style talk and quotes.

They don't really know much about financial management, probably just motivational speakers, you know, the sort of feeling you get when you attend MLM talks and get highly emotional/motivated/brainwashed by these people if you have a weak mind.
Lampe Berger comes to mind. ;)

Some of these people just end up repeating the financial management mantra but they know very little on how to implement it but they just can't explain their highly motivated behaviour towards the subject. Maybe they should learn hypnotism or something. Better yet, learn from Anthony Robbins' books.</description>

		<description>First off, I think the ranting by all these ppl wanting to know how the conversion solution was arrived at should just go and do their own research. &lt;i&gt;It's interesting to note that if it had been a man talking about conversion, I don't think the issue would have arisen.&lt;/i&gt;

Next: 

Blogs are more than just journals. Please get that through to your head. Some of us use blogs as a means to reach out to friends we couldn't have otherwise. 

Thirdly (sorry for the rant, Ms. Minishorts, I get irritated by people like these):

WHY THE HECK IS RELIGION IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE ANYWAY? Think about it. At the end of the day, WE are going to be individually responsible to GOD. We are going to have to answer to him &lt;b&gt;personally&lt;/b&gt; about the choices and actions that we took while we were on this Earth. 

Do YOU want to tell God that "I was told by your Holy Books that I must FORCE my daughter to cover herself up because I cannot trust other men?" Why can't you let your daughter make her own decisions?

Do YOU want to tell God, "I was told by your HOLY BOOKS that I must MAKE my daughter marry her rapist, even if it was ME, if she's no longer bethroed?"

Do you WANT to tell God, "I did all that because I was &lt;b&gt;told&lt;/b&gt; to do so by those who claimed to have been appointed by you?"

These all seem like escapists fantasies to me. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE IN THE END TO NO ONE BUT YOURSELF AND GOD, SO DEAL WITH IT.</description>

		<description>If you read back S-kay comments on Vincent's blog and also the above you will notice a particular trend. 

She advise you to do financial planning, financial  goals blah, blah, blah.....which is good advise but that's it. Nothing more. Yes she did point to  a website which supposingly will help.  Please take a look a that site and tell me how useful it is?.

We have the same situation here. Yes, she says that she has solved the issue. Please do not expect anything more than that. She has already point you to a 'helpful' directory. Again tell me how useful it is?.

Hence, do not pursue this anymore....you are not going to get the answer.

Lastly if some one wants to keep their life personal , why have a blog about it???

&lt;strong&gt;same rhetoric, same difference: if some one wants stay in a bungalow, why still live in a two-storey link house? if you haven't already noticed it, personal blogs, at most, reveal segments of a blogger's life which he/she chooses to allow publicity. as readers we do not question and probe for the private parts.&lt;/strong&gt; </description>
