Being an OS/2 user since the early days, I began reading Brad's posts on CompuServe and the comp.os.os2.* newsgroups many years ago. While there have been more than a couple of characters in these groups, it gave me the opportunity to meet (virtually) many intelligent people from various backgrounds. This led to the purchase of several Stardock products, and to the forums at news.stardock.com. <b

I'm also only going to weight myself and blog once a week (daily weighing is not recommended, allegedly). This runs counter to what I read in "The Hacker's Diet". I found it to be a very enjoyable read. It doesn't sell anything, and the author doesn't preach. Best of all, it's free! http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/

As far as I am concerned the far right has always been more dangerous than the far left. I consider them less dangerous. Reason being - they're so easy to spot, and therefore to denounce. The far left is more insidious with their hidden agendas. Both are bad - the far right with their "holier than t

I cannot believe people would actually do something like that and still have the balls to call themselves American. ...or the nerve to consider themselves Christians. That's not what Jesus stands for.

Jenna, From what I've just read, I can tell that you are a good person. Gideon is right on the forgiveness part. Try not to totally cut your father off unless you have to. He may truly need you some day. Just never forget how manipulative he can be. I still have this deep, dark fear that one day out of nowhe

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. 23 is much too young to die. May he rest in peace, and his family accept our thoughts and prayers. You are a good friend.

Now, in this upcoming election, the War on Terror is actually not a top concern for me. I always vote on the economy, on healthcare, and on the environment. Well for your sake I surely hope that there are no more terrorist attacks in America. I'd hate to see what that would do to the economy. Go

Well tomorrow's the big day, let's see how accurate your early predictions were! Personally, I don't see the Liberals doing as well as you suggest.

think Jay has a good point: someone who is a CEO probably has more they can offer with their time than simply bagging groceries. Madine, see my reply to Jay. He makes an interesting point that I had not originally considered, but I don't think that it works in all cases.

Jay, some good points here. She becomes convinced that she in particular, and her company in general, could help the food bank get more organized, make better use of their resources, become better at soliciting for funds, etc. She becomes aware that literacy is a huge problem there, as is mental illness. </TABLE

I had a recent discussion with some people at work. We were talking about charities and volunteering. I said that it made more sense to "do what you do best", earn some money, and donate it to a worthy cause. The others said that it was more important to volunteer your time. I've come across this situation before and been astounded. In this case, I was outn
