Question: Would you not gain an inner strength that would fight againt outside stimulus perhaps? Whe you have to fend for yourself everyday wouldn't that give you a basis to stand up and call bullshit when you see it? I really wonder about this, because we are so immersed in data, we don't see what the human psyche can really deal with, but Shug, you're the professional not me!

Thanks Roco, those are a lot of my thoughts.

People so easily attempt to manipulate others. This is true with your friends, your co-workers, your family, your government, your military, your news information. Propaganda is everywhere - to the extent that we can no longer judge anything clearly. Our minds are so plugged with advertising, news, subliminal advertising, books, tv and the internet. I wonder what I would do if I were isolated in the woods somewhere with no one to talk to and nothing but nature around me. No politics, no news, no crisis, no person trying to turn me to their way of thinking, no lies, no drama... How different would I be when I returned to the reality I know now after not have any of that for say six months? I try to imagine it, but it's beyond my grasp of reality, and in truth is not desireable due to the creature comforts I live with. I prefer toilet paper over leaves . Diet coke over river water... How do you think we would be changed if all this stimulus were to be gone? Just snap your fingers, and it's gone. Let me know what you think.

Oh shit, I'm so sorry, I thought the one that looks like Elton John was the birthmark, my bad.... Sorry for the mix up everyone. The tattoo is Elton John, the birthmark is Pee Wee Herman... Didn't mean to missspeak Stank, that prolly embarrassed you. I would never do that!

That's true! He has a tattoo of Pee Wee Herman on his ass!

Only if his pits have an ass crack ...

it was so pretty, all braided like cornrows, with a pink ribbon and a feather. It's hanging over my fireplace now...

I told him it was a condition!

While I am a Buckeyes Fan, and waiting for the game to start. I was extremely saddened at the death of such a great man yesterday. Bo Schembeckler was a marvelous coach, a great man and a wonderful inspriration to many college students: footplayers or not. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/football/ncaa/11/17/schembechler.obit.ap/index.html He also coached at Bowling Green State University, and Ohio State University. He was a grand master of developing a football team, and the entire sport is better fot it. I'll be watching the game hoping Ohio State beats Michigan, but I will also be looking for the tributes to Bo. I admired him. Rest In peace.

to grow an inch!

Happy Birthday CA3LE. I got your present right here.... it's waiting! :bday: :bday:

I can't answer - because frankly I dont care LOL I have an ipod which hosts enough music for me for when the noise gets too loud at work, and I dont need movies, I have enough at home, so really - it doesn't appeal to me. Could I change my mind? Sure! After all I am the supreme commander of music and hence I can do whatever I want. For now, I will enjoy everyone else's pleasure in it and live with what I have. My ipod was actually a gift two years ago from a grateful person who appreciated the help I gave him. It has lovely memories for me, and changing would do him a disservice. The rest of you? Enjoy!

Happy Birthday to each and everyone of you!

Happy Veteren's Day to all of you who have sacrificed yourselves and your families so that we may live in this great time in the world. You are all dearly appreciated.

shhh, it's fun to let them think I'm a crotchety old bag

not no more that well dried up years ago!

I have a cookie

I have to tell you as a former sales person of electronics. Sony relies on it's name to charge higher prices. They are no different than many other high quality monitors, but the Sony name brings more money. You don't need to buy the Sony to get the same quality, Samsung delivers the exact same quality for a lower price.

how old? there is a time limit for modifying

Hey! My husband is the customer service manager for a wireless company! I'm offended by that!

Before Dateline got involved, PeeJ couldn't get LE very interested in doing anything. Sometimes Law Enforcement did get invoved and few (prolly about 50) of those were convicted. The best part is, PeeJ uses an off-site server to store all the instant messenger seesions with the freaks and the pictures that they send the volunteers. These freaks will hit on someone they believe to be as young as 10 years old. But the courts have found their evidence stone cold solid. In the early days, when LE wouldn't get involved it was actually the PeeJ volunteers who would do the follow-up investigation to find out who these people were and peeper the schools nearby with the information in order to protect the kids. Unfortunately you can't read any of this unless you register on their site, and you have to read through the archived busts to get the whole picture. But I found it worth it. They've been protecting our kids for years and we didn't even know it until Dateline got involved. Since then, the site has exploded with new members, volunteers etc... and the perv's still keep coming, the contributors and Human Sheilds (peeps who talk to these perverts) do this every night without fail until they get them to bite. The stories there are amazing, and I joined awhile back and every day I am amazed at what those people do to try to clean up our world.
