I don't know what this has to do with learning Spanish or English - JoyceM, Sep 29, 2010
The "General Discussions" category is for discussing "anything you can think of" as it is described. It is just a short break from our studies and a way to get to know each other. :) - Nicole-B, Sep 29, 2010

How embarrassing to all of us as human beings and to the UN who don't realize they are an embarrassment to themselves. This waste of money would be better spent on complying with the yet-to-be-completed pledges of financial help to Haiti and the flood-ravaged areas of Pakistan. I wonder what creatures from other worlds would think of us.

Oh N Ogrrr I don't like this idea connecting with aliens if they exist !! could be very baaaad for the whole world , I've heared one of the the famous scientist (I don't actually remember his name )saying '' aliens does exists but if any human tried to contact with them the world destiny will be ..... '' I hate to say that so I am not going to mention it !!

But maybe I am wrong ! maybe it could be useful if they even exist in the reality !!

Thanks for sharing this with us Nicole smile

Lovely, don't worry; Aliens wouldn't be interested in destroying the earth. We humans are already doing a fine job all on our own - 005faa61, Sep 29, 2010

How typical for the U.N. to ignore problems that exist in front of their faces while throwing money at problems that don't even exist. This simply shows them up for what they are....the Emperor has no clothes....

I am appalled at the insensitivity of members of SD . All beings are in need of our trust care and love, we have neighbours who are Terestrials and we have found them to be quiet and unassuming, they do not disturb our Sundays with lawn mowing they seam to get the job done with a sweep of the hand or whatever that is protruding from their head , and leaf blowing is over in a thrice by sucking it up from , or to , or is into whateverrr. No late night parties or kiddy sleep overs and except for the occassional power surge they are model neighbours , mind you I am not fond of their pets , or children , or those things that are around them a lot . but live and let live I say, but we don't get Jehovas witnesses here any more a couple of them dissapeard inside their car , or vehicle thingy , that was not good , but you cant have everthing in life to be perfect can yo,,," Hey son girl thingy thing put the flaming postman down" OH strewth where is the flaming fly spray ?

jajaja! Of course you are right , Ray, they do keep a low profile now but you just wait and see what is yet to come! lol and rolling! - Brynleigh, Sep 30, 2010
Ray, they are sucking your Brain! Rum protects against effects of the invisible "ray," gun! - 002262dd, Sep 30, 2010
It is so funny that we live on the other side of the world from each other but still share the same annoyances like "neighbors mowing lawns" and "Jehovah's witnesses knocking at inconvenient hours." :) Well said Ray! - Nicole-B, Sep 30, 2010

lol, I think it is obvious what has happened. The aliens are here already and have infiltrated the United Nations. Some, if not all,of the brains at the UN are extraterrestrial beings. They are making this appointment to serve their own purpose, of taking over our world. Mazlan is obviously one of them and will be a puppet for them. We must act now if we are to save the planet. Every member of the UN must submit themselves to Cat Scan to determine if there is actually any grey matter in their heads. I suspect we may find an empty cavity.smile)) jajaja lol! extraterrestrial life Pictures, Images and Photos Kelly-Hopkinsville Aliens Pictures, Images and Photos Does he look like anyone you know? lolCat Scan Pictures, Images and Photos

I am spoofing of course>smile)

I heard that yesterday too, how stupid. My question is, How much $$$ is this costing us? How much are they paying this person? Trust me, I'll bet it's a lot! What a waste.

I guess the U.N. has nothing else to do these days. No terrorism, no wars, no famine, flooding, earthquakes, etc. Lots of extra money and time to throw around at things like this. They should be ashamed and embarrassed.

Aww...

The Malaysian astrophysicist, Mazlan Othman, who -- according to the UK's press -- was about to become the U.N.'s spokesperson for Earth, has no clue about her unprecedented promotion.

I guess it was a hoax. long face

Then again, I suppose it's really a good thing that it was a hoax. If the UN were really creating an ambassador to aliens, I would be seriously concerned.

Anyway, here's an article debunking the whole thing.

I say that aliens exist and we should appoint an ambassador for the alien species out there.

My wife told me yesterday that Whoopi Goldberg was upset that she did not get the job. Personally, I can think of quite a number of better things the UN could be doing with the money, such as actually completing the eradication of polio, but I suppose it is only a drop in the bucket. I think studying Spanish has led me to be much more aware of how often I use English idioms.

Debe haber sido un día de noticias lento para el New York Post que han publicado un artículo sobre este tema.

It must have been a slow news day for the New York Post to have posted an article on this subject.

Who better than our guy from Massachusetts for the job? You can be a modern day Paul Revere. "The aliens are coming! The aliens are coming!!!" I guess we'll have to work on the "One if by land, two if by sea" bit, but I know you will figure it out! wink
