Anaxagoras -> RE: Sexy Irish Women (10/12/2011 12:54:45 PM)
quote: ORIGINAL: LadyHibiscus I'm glad that things are picking up in Ireland, here at least we have the impression of a struggling country. Of course, that description matches most countries these days! Our upper echelon politicos are often ridiculously paid, and the medical benefits! If they stopped having their own needs taken care of, I am sure there would be more motivation for change in our medical policies. The president, though, he's not remunerated all that much, though I am not sure how room and board figure in to it all. Certainly any redecorating and public entertaining is part of the White House budget. Things are picking up. Thats not to say there won't be a lot of difficulty ahead as efforts to bring deficits down get harder. The low hanging fruit has already been plucked... lol I think most people are accepting that some pain has to be taken but things are looking up if the international markets and the leaders in the EU (who seem to be sitting on their hands) don't pull everything down. One prominent Irish economist suggests that Greece will have to be thrown out of the EU before there can be any recovery! quote: ORIGINAL: GreedyTop unlike you, Kevvie.. I have no doubt that Anax has actually paid attention to numbers, and done his research to back up his claims. in other words, he is one of those folks from Ireland that doesnt whine. Thanks GT... [:)] Most people in Ireland seem to have a stoical attitude toward the crisis, thankfully the complete opposite to the Kevster.

I was never a fan of the EU, I don't see it really functioning as is in the future.

it would be better if the time wasted on Gaeilge was spent on teaching kids how to interact with the real world, give them interpersonal skills, give them a chance to talk and ask questions of each other and practice their social skills with one another, instead of shouting at them all the time and any time they open their mouth telling them to shut up or giving them punishment work as was done in my school, a complete violation of the first tenet of the Irish and American constitution which guarantees to every citizen kids included the right to speak and to be respected, something that is flagrantly violated by teachers and is seemingly is still going on judging by the rate my teachers website and the comments on same , some 15 years after i left kevin

a complete violation of the first tenet of the Irish and American constitution which guarantees to every citizen kids included the right to speak and to be respected you might have that in your constitution, laddie buck, but we aint got no sommitch. We have no tenets, and it aint the first thing out of the block. And our constitution does not affect your educational system.

quote: ORIGINAL: LadyHibiscus Anaxagoras, what is he on about with this "West Brits" stuff? I would be sad if Gaelic went the way of Cornish, and thank goodness it won't. The "West Brits" is IRA lingo for Irish people who are effectively British. That's why I pbjected to Kev using it. Its a little bit like coconut being used for black people. quote: ORIGINAL: LadyHibiscus I was never a fan of the EU, I don't see it really functioning as is in the future. The EU has its advantages as a loose economic block of modestly sized countries but tighter and tigher integration was a bad thing, and it became self-sustaining because the institutions of Europe were too independent from soverign governments, and their interests lay elsewhere with greater union. Then the level of integration with the Euro currency wasn't sufficient when dealing with a crisis on the scale of the present problem...

LadyHibiscus -> RE: Sexy Irish Women (10/12/2011 1:06:56 PM)
The EU is not a 100% bad idea, working together to create economies of scale makes sense, joint ventures make sense, but an array of mixed cultures with spotty past diplomatic relations and their own currencies? It should have stayed an umbrella, not a octopus, if that makes sense.

it would actually be a cost saving . Think of it like this. Apart from primary teaching, what other employer requires the candidate to have a knowledge of Gaeilge or an ability to speak Irish, they dont. So its a complete waste. At least the other would prepare kids for the real world and in case no one has noticed in the real world the language of business is ENGLISH, if money and effort wasnt wasted on Gaeilge to no purpose other than stress and resentment, nobody i know liked learning Irish,,kids resent it, so why impose a dead language on people in the full knowledge that it will be of no practical use in their future employment whatsoever, no much better to spend time preparing kids for work, give them interview skills, help them develop social skills, give them more freedom and throw out this anachronism that is of no relevance to 21st Century social and working life. Time spent on giving the kids the necessary skills to succeed in work would eliminate problems later on including mental health problems which all stem from stress and inability to fit in and would pay off for companies, who would get confident graduates and employees, whereas there is absolutely no economic benefit other than college points to learning irish kevin

hey hon.. he LIVES the WOE IS ME life.. perpetuated by his parents, apparently.. thank you for being a voice of sanity :)

lobodomslavery -> RE: Sexy Irish Women (10/12/2011 1:12:25 PM)
We also could eliminate the issue of Irish being used for college points by scrapping this anachronism from the school curriculum. As a multi cultural society there would be no objection believe me. One of the major causes of friction for non national parents especially is that of their children being forced to learn Irish when they dont want to, why bring this aggravation on to others, move on, be pluralistic and live in the world of reality, which is that NOBODY but NOBODY speaks Irish or is interested in said language in Ireland kevin

The tourism trade will. I spent some time in Ireland this summer. It isn't just in Connemara that Gaelic is spoken. It is the primary language in the Aran Islands. If you want to move to Innishmor, for example, you have to be fluent in it. Just because you are too lazy to appreciate the education you have been given doesn't mean that education isn't important. Were you unable to pass your exams to get into university and now it is sour grapes?

People like you make me want to vomit. A grown adult man: Sitting on your ass Not working and not making any attempt to find work Has a full education wanking on the net sponges and lives with his parents = and fuck your parents too for enabling people like you complaining about people who have high incomes -because they get up early out of their bed to be productive - work long hours - most likely work underneath & or with people they may or may not like - whom in doing this, pay their taxes ------> which in return support pieces of shit like you that dont do a GOD DAMNED THING, but wonder where the pussy is. You are the epitome of the expession: piece of worthless shit. I wish you a short and empty life -asshole. [image]local://upfiles/1059980/EDE025B9B5CD46AD88FC6B553FD6BF73.jpg[/image]

ok Aran Islands boo hoo, go west of Connemara, and what is the main language spoken ENGLISH, i rest my case kevin

quote: ORIGINAL: lobodomslavery ok Aran Islands boo hoo, go west of Connemara, and what is the main language spoken ENGLISH, i rest my case kevin So what? What case is there to prove? The fact that it is currently being spoken in the Aran Islands and in Connemara PROVES that it is not a "dead language" (which was your claim). English may be the MAIN language, but it is far from the ONLY language spoken west of Connemara. Epic fail on your part. Once again you've been proven to be either an idiot or a liar.
