Joining the “Union” was ever and always voluntary, rendering voluntary withdrawal an equally lawful and viable option..<BR/>Both the original (1836) and the current (1876) Texas Constitutions also state that “All political power is inherent in the people ... they have at all times the inalienable right to alter their government in such manner as they might think proper.”<BR/><BR/>I would buy this interpretation for Catalonia and Spain.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Johnny,<BR/>My Cantonese is even worse than your Mandarin. I understand a handful of words and expressions. I can follow, however, a conversation in Suzhouese and know more or less what they are talking about. I am fluent in Mandarin.<BR/><BR/>For those who wonder what you meant by the expression daa feiji (in hanyu pinyin should be da feiji):<BR/><BR/>In China there is the practice of '打飞机 da feiji' (masturbating a male client). Originally this was regarded as buying and selling sex (卖淫嫖娼 maiyin piaochang ie, proscribed as constituting 'prostitution and whoring'). Recently there have been some changes and this has been counted out, although the new policy has not been adopted by some places. This only happens in massage parlours and in most cases it is done by the girls, not demanded by clients. If the clients ask to have sex, girls in massage parlours will generally refuse and offer to da feiji instead. But this does not happen in karaoke bars, and barbershops and red light districts.ian llorenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11480151992510686932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15808871.post-11601457354553892852007-05-24T17:34:00.000-04:002007-05-24T17:34:00.000-04:00Cantonese?

I am asking for a direct connection between Barcelona and Shanghai, but never mind, it will be impossible during the next 20 years. AENA and Iberia will do a good job crushing any possible foreign project.<BR/><BR/>Daa feiji!!Johnny Tastavinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13157201466150318968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15808871.post-29760486269295896642007-05-24T07:18:00.000-04:002007-05-24T07:18:00.000-04:00Ian:You are the hell of a lucky person, living in ...Ian:<BR/><BR/>You are the hell of a lucky person, living in non-Jacobin country where any other language other than English is not official. Do you think the Jacobin Spain should copy that policy? or maybe the article six where state judges are legally bound to honor the federal laws and constitution over those of any state? On the other hand, I don't get the point on your message. You start talking about something and then suddenly put a sentence on the political issue. A last thing, should we believe you next time you promise something like your Lufthansa denial, or just take it as your "Andalusian exaggerating character" as you earlier mentioned?Garcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05883657296125916016noreply@blogger.com
