No one can really be trusted so no engagement is safe.<BR/>Too bad isn't it?Sevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17643893888470966419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042610.post-1150880918806169462006-06-21T04:08:00.000-05:002006-06-21T04:08:00.000-05:00When I posted "Tomatoes" those who commented all s...When I posted "Tomatoes" those who commented all said the same thing. People don't talk to each other on their parts of the globe. I wa sitting once in a bus with a guy next to me. Some people were standing. We reached a station from were a lady got on the bus. the guy next to me stood up to give her his seat. you wouldn't believe this but one standing guy actually pushed around to take the just-vacanted-seat! <BR/><BR/>FitènaFatmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02574337624177445967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042610.post-1150845569147159842006-06-20T18:19:00.000-05:002006-06-20T18:19:00.000-05:00Finally I can see and read you site again!Finally I can see and read you site again!k o whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943129503916125851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042610.post-1150841731624835482006-06-20T17:15:00.000-05:002006-06-20T17:15:00.000-05:00We all ignore each other on the Tube.

We always do, mostly for directions to where we are going. And I have to say that we met a woman on her way to work that led us most of the way to where we were going, she was very kind.<BR/>I too will give up my seat for an elderly person, a mom to be or someone with children. After all the things we see in the media, it should come as not surprise that thre are rude people in this world, it is just sad to see how many of them there are.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11313250780161359875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042610.post-1150818409028982942006-06-20T10:46:00.000-05:002006-06-20T10:46:00.000-05:00That makes me sad.

I always give up my seat to the elderly, pregnant women, etc. Of course, I don't live where you do, but good manners are becoming hard to find around here, too.bornfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12908901525549894211noreply@blogger.com
