some lesson in the future—Marina, Herbert Hoover, “Rugged Individualism Speech”
In the English language, the word “individualism” was first introduced, as a pejorative, by the Owenites in the 1830s, although it is unclear if they were influenced by Saint-Simonianism or came up with it independently.[1] A more positive use of the term in Britain came to be used with the writings of James Elishama Smith, who was a millenarian and a Christian Israelite.

Being a pitbull is both a blessing and a curse. Once i set a goal, i really sink my teeth in it and don’t let go until that goal is reached :twisted: . But this can also mean that some silly thing that don't really matter, takes up a lot of time :oops: http://www.agmates.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/pitbull-1-x-450.jpg That’s an easy one, a pitbull.

Even Elvis had a take on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk9UC8EoyIg Are these truly a comment on relationships - or more a complaint denoting disappointment in the expectations unfulfilled in them? What are the time honored sayings, words, or sentiments that women have come up with for some similar feelings about Men? 'My Knight in shining Armor', & 'Mr. Wonderful' are the only ones that comes to mind... :grin: ...there must be others...but being a guy, I probably block them out sub-consciously... :lol: These lessons are indeed interesting, educational, and thought provoking...
