G.B. Shaw QUOTES
1. I'm only a beer teetotaler, not a champagne teetotaler. I don't like beer.
2. We don't bother much about dress and manners in England, because as a nation we don't dress well and we've no manners.
3. [Chess] is a foolish expedient for making idle people believe they are doing something very clever, when they are only wasting their time.
4. The word morality, if we met it in the Bible, would surprise us as much as the word telephone or motor car.
5. All great truths begin as blasphemies.
6. You'll never have a quiet world till you knock the patriotism out of the human race.
7. I have defined the hundred per cent American as ninety-nine per cent an idiot.
8. The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. All progress, therefore, depends upon the unreasonable man.
9. The fickleness of the women I love is only equaled by the infernal constancy of the women who love me.
10. The test of a man or woman's breeding is how they behave in a quarrel

Interesting Dating
Hello guys, you must be wondering what hapenned at my interview. Well they told me to come back after two days, that too after they call me. I got the message and now I am searching for a new job.
I just came across this Intelligent Travel blog while surfing. The blogger is the winner of a compitition of NGC on travel writting . She is currently travelling in Mangolia, and here is what she has to say about Mangolian Dating.
Yesterday, Keith and I came across Andy, a twenty-something redheaded American expat from Iowa who teaches English to wealthy Mongolians at the small school around the corner from the university. He claims to like living in Mongolia except for the "brutal winters" (he says he saw his breath from September to May—the average temperature in January ranges from a high of four to a low of -16 degrees Fahrenheit). Also, Andy says that when he takes a Mongolian lady out for a date, the Mongolian men become angry because they believe that "foreigners are trying to steal their women."
After speaking with Andy, I became interested in the Mongolian dating scene, and I asked our guide Oyunaa, a beautiful young Mongolian woman (one of whom, I am sure, Andy would be happy to “steal”), about it.
Oyunaa says that a couple will date for about six months and then the father of the man will go to the family of the woman to ask for her hand. In the countryside, the tradition is stronger, complete with the theatrics of the family’s refusal and the staged “kidnapping” of the bride. Over dinner at the posh Winter Palace, I ask Oyunaa about Mongolians marrying foreigners. She says, “That’s okay," but adds, “just not Chinese."
Anybodies interested in a Mangolian Lady? Quite a tradition huh.
