written text will never express very well what a man wants to say.It's like writing in standard notation flamenco probably...maybe u could get it,but at the time u get it...nobody is interested anymore. Look..."I have a dream"[:D].I hope that I will be here for sometime,and I imagine that if we'll know each other better ..quarrels will apear more rarely. I hope that sometime(not now ...i'm still in school,damn) we will get together like the people in PDL's forum. I mean why (excuse the example) Ricardo never fights with Toddk? well,it's simple...they shared so much together that a simple bad word(or smth that is interpreted as bad) is easier to let it pass ,since 2 minutes of smth bad can not deny 20 years of friendship. (sorry for the example,but u mentioned that u are neighbours...and another example is hard to find). So,betweeen older members(i'm not that old,but I hope to be accepted in the future) ...we just got to wait ,meet from time to time,share memories and that's it. The other things ...about what u can say as a joke or not,this is a very complicated issue.. look at the danish drawings issue (with the Mohammad prohet) and u'll see that the entire world still... can not put the finger and draw a line and say "this is good,this is freedom of expression" and "this is not good,cause it offends people".So I really dont think we\ll ever resolve this matter,we just to broad our minds and hearts...but we cant anticipate ,how should we feel then...cause u cant think a more complicated thought just cause u want,u have to wait to be able(same is for playing also probably,I want ...but I got to wait). But we have to try to like smth,an acquired taste ...is not less enjoyable because u get it by education(i'm still learning that).So....I dont like to quarrel about how rumba is not really flamenco,about flashy picado that are not really music ....come on man,everything is music even the silence (well,I admit ...that is not that enjoyable ,but whatever). Still ,chating is nice...[:D],I so love my coffee now. Also that danish drawings issue ...should learn us to tolerate more,like...a bad joke is a bad joke ...dont laugh ...but to kill people for a joke.I say when u get a bad joke,if u think that the author can understand why u think it's a bad joke...explain it to him,but dont waste your time if u feel like he's not there yet.If u care about that person opinion,teach him...if not do not pretend that u are willing to learn him the right way,if u dont have the time. BLA,BLA...etc more concise ...in my romania there is this saying "fa ce zice popa ,nu ce face popa". Translation : "do what the priest says ,not what the priest does" .I dont know how will u feel that is related to this subject ,but it is...as it says to you to follow the truth in men ,and not their actions....cause everybody can make a bad joke.
