You sound as if you're left with no choice? Well....bear in mind, the world is always changing, it's either you change the environment to suit your needs or you change your needs to suit the environment. Well, of course, you alway have a choice, no one is forcing you, you can remain as it is as well. > >>>there are not more chinese speakers than english. > >>>if you have not relized it but the english language it the most > >>>widely used language as a standard. why? cause us americans want > >>>it that way ;) I know both chinese and english, I can communicate using both language, (in a versatile way?), so I can have more friends than you do huh? > ================================================================================ > "John Rickard" > >J-S Payette wrote: > > >>I've never learn english and I talk better than you. > >^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^And you should so you can learn proper > >vocabulary skills. > > Given the construction of the above sentence/phrase I wouldn't > be so quick to be critical of others' language abilities. > At least you're capitalizing.

And I can promise you I will win. He who is ruled by men lives in sorrow, he who rules men lives in confusion. I chose not to be in either position instead. No one is a sure winner. Who knows, there are so many people around the whole world, it's just that you never get a chance to meet them, not that they don't exist in this world. You are just asking for a loser that's all, I believe there will be people who are kind enough to entertain your needs. > >- > >Damn near any idiot can program.

Hehe...just add to the list above, 4) you need someone to entertain you simply by losing to you 5) you just can't afford to lose 6) you know you don't deserve respect from others -- Justin Ng
