Hi everyone
I’m a confirmed bachelor and I not looking to marry I don’t know if I’m an eligible bachelor in my neighborhood where single women are unusual. Maybe I have a fear of a long commitment, maybe I sometimes feeling well alone. I don’t live a celibate and being a bachelor isn’t a idyllic but is good I don’t feel bad about it.
Have a nice day to us
Hi everyone
When I listen the English Café and when the theme is a famous american, pioneers and their lives, their influence and important on the american history I find so interesting. A great nation don’t forget their pioneers.
When I thinking about our pioneers, in my country, we have and I think we have lot of them because my country is large and nowadays still have remote areas, lot of immigrants from others countries around the world settled on here, but I listen just about a couple of them and I believe there is more than we know about. A great nation don’t forget their pioneers.
Thank you Dr. Jeff
Hi Marcos

It cheers me up to drop a line here knowing that it is the medium through which I cominucate with my friend at eslpod and somehow get my concerns across all across the glob. That is spiritually empowering me.

Hi Dan
Sorry, I sometimes put in my post where I from and I think you guys know about. I live in Brazil and as I said is a great nation but your people need know more about their great names that built that nation and this isn’t happening because we need more careful with our children on school, more investment on education and so forth. My education comes from a public school and my parents comes from a small city as many that don’t still have good public school nowadays. A great nation need know more about your pioneers.
Have a great 2015
