RE: and?
There are few straight guys who are online pretty regularly and I doubt they would be doing it for free. Ask them. I am sure the vast majority of members are men looking for women but you never know when your wife might log on looking for some action.
RE: becoming a host
Hey austin, I talked with cc about that,but it seems that you need a cam (which I don't have) to make it work
RE: becoming a host
well slutpuppy,,,, I cant do it anyway,, I'm afraid to show my body--(shy) but if you need a cam, I know a great deal were you can get one free.
RE: becoming a host
It's not that hard, i've done it many times. And not just in cam, in person too.
RE: to economists
Hi Vera -
The US Dollar will rise when the Federal Reserve raises US interest rates (not likely in the next year or so) or the British Central Bank or the European Central Bank cuts British or European interest rates (more likely). If there is an option to get paid in Euros, choose to do so. I am an American and I tease my Company that I want to get paid in Euros (or oil, or silver) ;)
Please stay well.

RE: to economists
The European Central Bank and British bank could start cutting rates as early this summer, and almost definitely by the fall. The U.S. Federal Reserve will stop cutting rates very soon. This will help the dollar.
If you are expecting a dramatic increase in the dollar, I doubt it will happen any time soon. The U.S. economy will be slow for awhile so U.S. interest rates won't increase too quickly, and at the same time, the Europeans are much slower to decrease their rates.
But I would not expect too much change in the dollar this year. Maybe by the end of the year it could be a little higher. Perhaps 1 euro will equal around $1.50 by the end of the year. And by the end of 2009, 1 euro could be around $1.40 or so.
I would look for approximately 5% increases in the value of the dollar each year until 2011. A euro should be about $1.50 or so by year end, $1.40 or so by the end of 2009, and $1.35or a little less by the end of 2010. I expect a dramatic increase, maybe about 10% in 2011 to around $1.20 or so and a 5% increase in 2012 to about $1.15. But then the dollar will start going down all over again. However, since the world is supposed to end in 2012, I wouldn't worry about it. :p

RE: to economists
For the value of the dollar or the end of the world? :p
Obviously, I am just guessing about the value of the dollar. But I base my guesses on watching a lot of business commentary and reading articles. The U.S. economy will slow for a few months and then start to rebound. The rest of the world will follow, not as much as in the past, but still is trongly linked to what happens in the U.S. Then it will take about 2 years for the subprime crisis to end and home values and consumer confidence and spending to increase to significantly higher levels..... So, I put things like that in the mix, hope there isn't something major like a terrorist attack or extreme oil shortage, and take a guess just like everybody else.
In terms of the end of the world 2012, I don't really believe that stuff, but it does get my attention when I see the state of the world and then hear that several major religions, various prophecies, the end of the mayan calendar and things like that all point to around then, and of course an album by Rush. Hope it is just a big coincidence. :p

RE: to economists
Did you hear about that particle accelerator that's due to open in Geneva this summer?
Apparently it poses a tiny little threat of opening up a black hole that might possibly swallow up the planet.
God, I love science.

RE: to economists
No, but perhaps we need a study on the length of "life lines" on people's palms. If they seem to be getting shorter and shorter, then we will definitely know we have a problem. :p
In terms of science, I think that as we get closer to actually cloning a human (I think that it can already be done or something recently happened in the news that says they are close), if there is a God, He will finally say "Enough!" and that's it for us.
Eve and that damn apple! Just like women take our money, they will be the ones responsible for the end! Stupid tree of knowledge! Ignorance is bliss!! I hate science!!! :p

RE: to economists
The sub-prime crisis will end within a year...the after affects will carry forward for some time to come. Wall Street still has some cleaning house to do but values have never been based on underlying asset strength more perceived value than anything else. As a trader we live for volatility, when volatility slows the dollar will rebound in the short term.
RE: to economists
well at some point they may be forced to write down the asset values at least for the commercial real estate which they have not done and is potentially a larger crisis. then there is still the looming credit card crisis, but hey the banks are only carrying 942 trillion on the books there, which why they are so desperate to separate those divisions
RE: to economists
seriously not within the next 2 years . i could explain but i couldnt be bothered
well
i put a dollar in the ground
by the summer i hope to have a tree and in the fall i will just rake up the dollars

Looks of Disappointment
A man was just waking up from anesthesia after surgery, and his wife was sitting by his side. His eyes fluttered open and he said, "You're beautiful." Then he fell asleep again.
His wife had never heard him say that before, so she stayed by his side.
A few minutes later his eyes fluttered open and he said, "You're cute."
The wife was disappointed because instead of "beautiful," it was now "cute."
She asked, "What happened to beautiful?"
The man replied, "The drugs are wearing off.

5 rules to life
1 It's important to have a woman, who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans up and has a job.
2. It's important to have a woman, who can make you laugh.
3. It's important to have a woman, who you can trust and who doesn't lie to you.
4. It's important to have a woman, who is good in bed and who likes to be with you.
5. It's very, very important that these four women do not know each other.

Question for hosts only
Why don't answer in free chat? Why don't say hello? Is it so expensive and boring? Is it a strategy to push members to go in video? It doesn't work very much, only makes angry.
RE: Question for hosts only
do u know that cc tells us to ask hosts in free chat what we want before going in because some hosts refuse to do some things so u will know before paying.
so if free chat is used in a good way you should answer at least for 5 minutes talk

RE: Question for hosts only
Surely it is only polite (even of the viewer) to chat in free first and not to just jump into the video. some of the hosts here work on other sites at the same time and may already be in video ;)
Alos better for both because the host may not be there at the time so both miss the oppotunity of a nice show/chat.

RE: Question for hosts only
I make special sessions only to chat! I chat for hours!
As CC program doesn't include the possibility to start similar sessions. I make all the possible to tell the member that he has not to click the video button, I clarify that in my session title, I raise my video min. price to the maximum allowed price.
When I decide to make a video session, I choose my video member from my previous chatters, I make with him a nice coded private show , here the program of CC is perfect nobody can enter unless he has the cam password nothing can disturb us, no chatter can enter the free text chat. I ensure that my door is well locked!

RE: Question for hosts only
This is what I wished to know. U didn't understad my question. I aksed why don't say "Hello, i'm busy"? Too much work for it? Or you wanna be paied for one answer ? And if u r in 121 why ur room is open? Stop debate pls, it's enough.
RE: Question for hosts only
It's funny to read the answers, specially from hosts who have 2 rooms and don't turn off the second when they are in 121, No answer then in text chat, but what would happen if u go in 121 in the opened room? Twice 121? 222? lol
RE: Question for hosts only
Hosts don't close their other sessions much of the time when members are in 1 to 1. This is a violation of the rules as it is unfair to members. I haven't spent $1 here in over 4 months because of issues like that. But the forums are fun sometimes.

hey dizz seems you either have a closet fan or a deranged stalker.

Lemon Squeeze
There once was a religious young woman who went to Confession. Upon entering the confessiona l, she said, "Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned."
The priest said, "Confess your sins and be forgiven."
The young woman said, "Last night my boyfriend made mad, passionate love to me seven times."
The priest thought long and hard and then said, "Squeeze seven lemons into a glass and then drink the juice."
The young woman asked, "Will this cleanse me of my sins?"
The priest said, "No, but it will wipe that smile off of your face."

Caller: 'Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's dark.'
Operator: 'Dark??'
Caller: 'Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window.
Operator: 'Well, turn on the office light then.'
Caller: 'I can't.'
Operator: 'No? Why not??'
Caller: 'Because there's a power failure.'
Operator: 'A power........ A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now.Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??'
Caller: 'Well, yes, I keep them in the closet.'
Operator: 'Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from.'
Caller: 'Really? Is it that bad?'
Operator: 'Yes, I'm afraid it is.'
Caller: 'Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??'
Operator: 'Tell them you're too f---ing stupid to own a computer!!!!!'

RE: call centre conversations
I remember my first week as tech support, one of the first calls I got started with, "I just poured water into my monitor! What do I do?!?" I had her make sure the cord was dry and unplug it, we let it dry out a few days then tried it and it worked fine. In the long run the monitor out lasted the computer.

RE: I am in loveee
I didn't think hosts were allowed to fall in love with guys who aren't members of cc :(
RE: I am in loveee
guys who laugh at there own little attempts at humor come off as a little needy and pathetic...its something you might want to consider not doing any more.

joke
There is this guy with a bald head and a wooden leg that gets invited to a fancy dress party, he is at a loss what do go has so he writes to a fancy dress company to ask for suggestions, a few days later he recieves a large parcel with a note. "thank you for your enquiry sir find enclosed a pirates outfit and a dummy parrot. you can cover your bald head with the bandana(sp) and your wooden leg will look natural".
The man is outraged that they have outlined his leg, so he writes off a angry letter to them.
a week later another package arrives with a note "we are sincerely sorry for causing you upset sir, find enclosed monks habit, it is long enough to cover your leg and your bald head will look natural"
this makes the man even more angry that they mentioned his head so he pens a furious letter to them again.
2 weeks later a very small package arrives with a note which simply said "thank you for your letter sir, enclosed is a jar of syrup, put it on your head stick your wooden leg up your arse and go as a toffee apple!"

This may be difficult for non-native English readers. But, see if you can understand the below message.

RE: I'm one of the 55; Are you?
Cambridge University research says words may be jumbled but we can still read it. You are talking about abbreviating the words, which is a totally different concept. Besides there is no correct or universal abbreviation to some words, so how you abbreviate may not be same nor understood by another individual.

I'd have written it as -- Tks 4 info

I have no idea what you are saying here :(
Btw I too have memories of jotting down lecturer's "comments" which were sure to be on the exam. Lots of chicken-scratch abbreviations which were perfectly correct when written but made no sense later on. Since then I invested in a cassette tape recorder to record the lecture (^_*)

RE: I'm one of the 55; Are you?
I know it was meant to be a fun post but I think it has more to do with the fact that we know what word we are expecting to see next. Also the fact that most of the words that are jumbled are very short ones and where longer words are jumbled such as "Cmabrigde Uinervtisy" they are not jumbled up that much.
It would also mean that when we proof read something we would be very unlikely to spot our mistakes.
See how many people can read the following word straight away :-eeaiinnnttrg.

I was thinking to be dump, ad now, after read it and understand all without problems, i know that there is the 55% of dummy people. Great! I'm not alone.
RE: I'm one of the 55; Are you?
Lol....good one. BTW, don't forget that people who read this board on a regular basis enjoy a distinct advantage when it comes to decipher such language. Funny stuff....thanks for sharing it.
