That's what I can't figure out - how is it that they're gay?   

Being naked makes you gay now?

So when Trump was naked in the showers with Arnold Palmer, admiring his penis, that's gay?

Actually, that was kinda gay.

I have seen this happen many times throughout the history of my life. People that use their teenaged years to discover who they are by rebelling against authority. Then there are those people that act like they have no responsibilities to their community, because they think they are owed a living.

Give some thought to this possibility: If you were nabbed, tied up, put into a car and taken 100km from your last known location, and let loose in the rural areas, what would you do?

Yelling out "help" would do little to ease your pain. Swearing might attract attention of some wild animals. And if you don't know how to build a fire or construct basic shelter, you are basically done. Anyone can walk 100km with nothing more than a mobile phone and the clothes and backpack as possession. They won't suffer anything more than some minor dehydration before they can get a mobile phone signal. But what of those people that lose their phones, their shoes and are given nothing more than a lighter to use, with their cigarettes, whilst they are dumped out in the bush?

We did this scenario back in the year 1990. It is amazing how valuable a $1 Bic lighter is to people stuck in the bush. Because some people don't know how to light fires without them. They rely on something that does things for them that they cannot easily do for themselves.

By the way, you might as well quit reading my WorkChat articles that I wrote for a few days, whilst my "ex-girlfriend" finished her thesis in Gladstone. Plagiarism is intellectual theft.

Halloween is the Autumn Harvest festival in the Northern Hemisphere. Christianity is irrelevant to the tradition. In my town, we have a large concentration of North-West European descendants of the first settlers. Halloween is very popular because of our English, Irish, Welsh, Scottish, Norwegian, and Germanic descendant residents keeping the ancient tradition alive.

It was never about witchcraft.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween

Halloween, or Hallowe'en[7][8] (less commonly known as Allhalloween,[9] All Hallows' Eve,[10] or All Saints' Eve),[11] is a celebration observed in many countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It is at the beginning of the observance of Allhallowtide,[12] the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed.[3][13][14][15] In popular culture, the day has become a celebration of horror, being associated with the macabre and supernatural.[16]

One theory holds that many Halloween traditions were influenced by Celtic harvest festivals, particularly the Gaelic festival Samhain, which are believed to have pagan roots.[17][18][19][20] Some go further and suggest that Samhain may have been Christianized as All Hallow's Day, along with its eve, by the early Church.[21] Other academics believe Halloween began solely as a Christian holiday, being the vigil of All Hallow's Day.[22][23][24][25] Celebrated in Scotland and Ireland for centuries, Scottish and Irish immigrants took many Halloween customs to North America in the 19th century,[26][27] and then through American influence various Halloween customs spread to other countries by the late 20th and early 21st century.[
