Well, everytime one of my adversaries starts to try to communicate with me it means that they're up to something. When they shake your hand with their right hand they're usually waiting to plunge the dagger into your heart with the left hand. Blocking him was a very good idea!!
I have a couple of schmucks like that at work and I just don't talk to them anymore. I do however sometimes smile at them and chuckle from time to time, which really freaks them out. Forgive me if what I am about to say offends anyone in this forum, but I've found that the worse people to work with are those who are Hindu's and some of the Mong people. (Yeah, I'm in California, what can I say), but for people who believe in reincarnation, and who should be walking on eggshells in order to have a better life in their supposed next life, they sure act like the most vile people I have ever met.
I've always been one for diversity and for accepting the foreigner because Torah tells us that we were once foreigners and we should accept the foreigner; but when diversity works so well that I am the only one that looks caucasian then diversity flies out the window (in the eyes of those I have always championed) and I am the token that has to take second best so that the foreigner can reign supreme. Diversity Sucks!!! I eagerly await Mashiach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
