Congrats Serge! Moving to the UK when I was 19 was a big enough a deal I can't even imagine what it was like for you. Much respect.
it was GOOD actually...

I got what I wanted,
OUT OF USSR...
my 5 years dream prior to my departure....

Sharpie 11-23-2003 09:41 AM

Serge have you ever seen a film called Local Hero ? There is a Russian character in that who when I saw it last made me think of you for some reason.

Your free to feel that way Labret, try to remember that fact after your relocation ok? Your also free to leave the US, temporarily or forever, again try to not forget that freedom as you pack. I won't try to slam you for voicing your opinion, no, I wouldn't do that. See, i spent my own little private 'Time In Hell' for you to have the freedoms your currently taking for granted. When you die, hang your head as you cross the gates of heaven, you'll see they are guarded by United States Marines (i'd venture other services as well, but they are not in the poem).

during WWII there was a C-rat can found with the following words inscribed on it

I dont loathe the military, I feel sorry for those of you who have had to die under the guise of protecting "our" freedoms, when none of them were at stake.

I find it hilarious that I am getting shit for doing what all you patriots tell those of us disenfranchised to do.

"Love it or leave it", "Dont like it, get the fuck out".

So I am.

cool, your throwing around the 'grandpa' term relating to us old guys. Here goes junior. None of our freedoms were at stake? Really, lets take a look shall we?
Revolutionary War - This DOES apply stud, it is what MADE us Americans and created our freedoms. Someone fought for them and they most definitely were at stake.

Civil War - Duh, again fought for rights Americans take for granted today.

WWI - No your right, no worries about world domination on this one either, what a waste of time that one was.

WII - Threats to our freedom? No way! Germany (or more accurrately Nazis) Japan and Italy only wanted Europe & Asia...........all of it, they were gonna leave the US and our Freedoms alone, sure they were, thats the ticket. There is that sticky litttle fact of the wolf pacts sinking US ships, but fuck it, its only details. And Pearl Harbor?! I guess killing Americans isn't the same as taking their rights correct, well cept for that fist one LIFE liberty and the persuit of happiness.

Korea - She-it! No freedoms at stake on that one at all (by the way, watch the demonstrations in S Korea, the old Koreans who remember what we did still support and love the US while younger, school age Koreans are blissfully ignorant to the facts of life regarding freedoms. Wouldnt it be a hoot to see them all of a sudden ruled by a much less tolerant regime like their friendly neighbors to their North? Yes it would. Pay a visit to the DMZ and see how not only YOUR freedoms, but those of the south koreans are being defended by American soldiers every single day

Those are a few, and if you think the men and women who served in the armed forces during Desert Storm or Vietnam (volunteers) didnt believe that they were defending YOUR RIGHTS your wrong sonny, It appears as though your nothing more than an unsatisfactory product of the American public school system, shame on your history teacher for not giving you the nessesary information of our shared history to allow you to respect this land a little more than you do now.

Like 911 wasn't an assult on our freedoms........

It changed so very, very much; many things that we always took for granted. It has already taken away some of our freedoms. The ripples are still rippling. It was the biggest act fof war, since Pearl Harbor.

I know you like to assume I am poor, but I have made more than enough in smut over the last 6 years to avoid working for the next 20 years. And if things hold out, I'll never have a "normal" job.

That being said, what is my degree worth overseas?

This is something I never understand about people. I go to school and educate myself because I have a genuine love for the subject matter. This is not about getting a job. School is something I do because it is something I love. Some people are obsessed with cars and pussy, I am obsessed with sociological theory and history. I could very well just sit back on my ass and just become another fat rich uneducated American, I choose not to. I will probably spend the rest of my life in academia as a professional student. Nothing makes me happier than sitting in lecture. It is better than sex.

Where is my money? We already had this discussion. I am only interested in tax deferment. I have a good bulk in municipal bonds. Dont have to pay taxes and earn a small amount of interest. I do not invest. It sits there or in savings account. I am a single guy with no wife and kids. I do not live big pimpin and have no desire to. I own my home free and clear, I have zero bills and zero debt. My money goes into school and travel.

what kind of degree you are working on? Political Science?



I have bs in anthropology/archaeology and sociology. My MS will be in sociology.


interesting....hard nut to crack, I see...
;-)

what would your degree be worth abroad?


you remind me of my father, who waited for the last day in Belarus for his pension to come...
not only he doesn't get it here, but it's worth less than $3 a month even if he did...

why wait 'till may to leave USA for good?
or you ned this degree to fall back after you find that the grass is always greener on the other side, OLD MAN BY GFY STANDARDS?
;-)))

I know you like to assume I am poor, but I have made more than enough in smut over the last 6 years to avoid working for the next 20 years. And if things hold out, I'll never have a "normal" job.

That being said, what is my degree worth overseas?

This is something I never understand about people. I go to school and educate myself because I have a genuine love for the subject matter. This is not about getting a job. School is something I do because it is something I love. Some people are obsessed with cars and pussy, I am obsessed with sociological theory and history. I could very well just sit back on my ass and just become another fat rich uneducated American, I choose not to. I will probably spend the rest of my life in academia as a professional student.[/b][/quote]
well, thats an interesting point your bring up there. I have a question for you if this is true

then how can this be true?

real life has taught me that education of any value is NOT learned in school bro. School is for the paper, the paper is for the job. You can challenge yourself and learn a lot more by NOT going to school, and thats truth.
I worked for Honda of America Manufacturing in East Liberty oHIo, we have a problem that required an engineer to design and build a special lift for us. I was put in charge of making sure it would perform the job as required. I am NOT an engineer. Wen they showed me the prototype, I tested it, fiddled around with it and promptly told him (the engineer) that it MIGHT work, but it would be slow. At 53 cars per minute off the end of the line, speed was/is a major issue. He said "it can facilitate 1500 units per shift." I said something like he was fucking crazy, he said he could prove it, I said do it, and he showed me a fucking piece of paper
a piec e of fucking paper
this was his proof..................... Stupid fuck. I and an entire assembly line (the engine line) proved him wrong, he even actually tried it and damn near killed himself.
Experience teaches better than any book or professor.

where have I ever assumed anything about your finances???

you are making to many assumptions for sociologist
;-)))

ok, I'll bite...where your 20 years supply of dough is invested and how do you intend to protect it from inflation?

Enough?

Where is my money? We already had this discussion. I am only interested in tax deferment. I have a good bulk in municipal bonds. Dont have to pay taxes and earn a small amount of interest. I do not invest. It sits there or in savings account. I am a single guy with no wife and kids. I do not live big pimpin and have no desire to. I own my home free and clear, I have zero bills and zero debt. My money goes into school and travel.[/b][/quote]
hmmm...I projected...I've been in Norway in July..
it's expensive for me,
I guess you did much better than me in the last 6 years...


munies do NOT protect you from inflation and rising interest rates...
if this is all you have,
cut 20 years to 5...inflation is coming back,
low US$ will bring it upon us.

I see the point you are trying to make, and it is applicable when it comes to engineering and mind numbing shit like that.

I am a sociologist with a background in anthropology. My subject matter is people. Everytime I leave the house I deal with my subject matter. Just simply "living" I tackle the subject matter. I travel and deal with different cultures. Anthropology, sociology, and archaeology all come into play. I cannot think any other way. A blessing and a curse.

Dont know, economics and investing bore the shit out of me. I just leave it up to the ABNAmro guy. He says "how much risk you willing to take", I say absolutely none and he tells me what to do.

Norway. Like I said, I dont live big pimpin like you. My tastes are simple. Very simple.

At the height of US / Soviet paranoia. How did you get out? Were you part of the Soviet program to empty the prisons and ship the riff raff to the US?

You love being here, I am packing my shit and leaving the country come May. Hopefully for good.

you lack of knowlege is amazing...and I can't wait 'till you leave USA for good.

You are as useful to America as a $3 bill....

I am not sure I follow.

I am not done, a phd is the goal, but it is not the end for me. After sociology I would like to move onto history and religious studies. I minored in both but there is still a lot in both I need to learn. And when I say "need", I mean "NEED".
