Rameses the Great

No one there cares. Since the bringing of Islam to Iran they feel they don't need anything else. If they want to destroy their past by all means let them, let them.

People tell me I have no soul because of my lack of emotion.

Great post PP there is definently a fine line between debating and posting with the intent of infuriating the other person. I wholeheartedly agree, besides when did this PP/Pertinax thing begin?

Can't wait to see those pics!

I think this has to be one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. :

The Huns swept from Central Asia and came out of no where destroying much of Eastern Europe and later Western Europe. Although Atilla was not a great general, he did not believe in tactics, he was a great leader who spoke eloquently. His forces would have followed him to the end of the world if they had to. People were scared to death because here is a people they have never seen before whose agenda is to destroy and utterly kill populaces. Also the bow they had (can't recall the name) also probably scared the Romans. They brought new revolutionary weapons that Europe and the Middle East have never seen before.

It's still the summer!

Unless Pittsburgh pulls out a miracle three game win streak against the Pens, we're just done for. It was a good run and if we can just push it to Game 6 and play it in Pittsburgh whether win or loss it will be a great thing.

As P-P said: guns don't kill people, people kill people.

Glad to see you back. your wanted in my office! :mummy: (Emoticon taken out for reasons unexplained)

Happy Birthday theilian!

Imagine the anguish in the families of the victimized children now. I know a friend of mine who's sister attends Virginia Tech, can you imagine how that family is feeling when this comes on the news? This reminds me of the Columbine and I hope people realize if you give some nut job a gun and he/she wants to shoot up a place he/she is going to do it. Too many people who don't realize what kind of people are out there and we often find out too late.

East Coast Pittburgher!

Thank you, I'm about to leave right now I'm shaking with excitement!

The Pens and Sens game was a thriller. I'm going to the game tomorrow in Mellon Arena and it will be *electric*

Yes it does, thank you!

Canadian teams have made an appearance in the last two Stanley Cup finals and could have won if it were not for bad officiating. As for the Leafs they should have beaten the Kings in Game 7. Gilmour was high sticked and Mr. McGoo Frasier didn't call it. Anyways, if the Sens make it by the Pens you bet they'll be bent on some revenge. Ottawa at their best, is the best team in the NHL.

I have signed up for numerous of these sites and each one only tells only European genealogy. Ancestry.com only for Europeans. My parents came from Egypt when they were young so I don't have much to work with. How were you able to get information? Did you get help from sites?

The Lightning most likely won't be able to beat Brodeur and the Devils are just too much for them. Pittsburgh is inexperienced but I think they could go as far as their high octane offence can take them. As for the Senators I know they choke being a Leafs fan but it is in time that they will knock down that bloody wall. It's still Buffalo. Tell me about it! We have no cap space. Sundin's no longer a captain, Tucker is not a franchise player, Raycroft's no goalie, and the Leafs right now are not a good team.

Well start asking about them! I did! My great-grandparents were all dead by 1953, and my grandfathers both died when my parents were teenagers. My paternal grandmother died when I was 8 months old. I know about them, and other members of my family, because I asked questions, wanting to know more abou them, their lives, and why they made the choices that they did. Know more about your past, and you will appreciate your present and your future. The problem is I only have one grandmother that lives in Alexandria. My parents really don't know about their past therefore its hard to really start from anywhere. I have a lot of questions unfortunately I don't think I'll find much answers especially since my grand parents didn't leave much of a history behind.

Why would the Sabres winning it all be a laugh, their the best team in the league. If any team deserves to win it all its the Sabres, and they are long over due at that. Its finally Buffalo's year, and those of us that live in Buffalo can't wait to celebrate. Don't count on it being an easy ride. You will likely have to face the Senators or Penguins and that in itself may be too much to handle.

It seems like the poll function is not working. I tried to create one but it did not show up on the thread itself.

For those who like to watch the NHL, I'm wandering who you think will win Lord Stanley's Cup? Talk about the playoffs, analysis, and questions here!

I don't remember anything past my great grand parents.

I know, but what research do we have on that subject? It is all based on evidence that is disredited, to my understanding, by many archeologists. Mark McMenamin's idea of a Carthaginian coin is not really sufficient enough to provide that much insight on the possibility. This is just a possibility, but assumptions is all we have to base off of when there really is no base of understanding. Regarding my original post, I suppose I was generalizing on personal and public opinion.
