Reply to I loath Batman in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

I don't think you can blame Batman for the kid being dumb enough to pull that stunt. I remember when Superman: The Movie first came out some dumb kid tied a sheet around his neck and tried to fly out the window. He wasn't as lucky as your little friend. Can't blame Christopher Reeve for that can you?

The Last Good Pope? in Religion JoeUser Forums

"Among all forms of mistake, prophecy is the most gratuitous." -- George Eliot As Pope John Paul II is again rushed to the hospital and required to undergo surgery, I can't help but pause and consider the many predictions (many from before anyone heard of him) that predict he will be "the last good pope."

but once it's up and running it claims it can't find the usb, video, raid, pci, and ethernet controller. Ignore that I'm reading this off the screen (video) while using the mouse (usb).

Reply to HELP!!! I need to justify keeping photography in the school in Professional Work JoeUser Forums

Before I come up with an answer, let me ask you a couple of questions (I may have to follow up). What exactly are you teaching them now? How is it currently justified? Why do they currently feel teaching darkroom photography to these kids is a good thing? How is darkroom photography justified at the High School level? When you say "The other dept's have licensed art education teachers that teach them. These other art clas

Reply to This will save you talking to me :) in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

Good to see you, Sal. I was wondering what had happened to you. My friends think I am stupid and I should just go for it, but I can't. I can't fake that feeling for him. I am more than happy to be his friend, but I don't think it would be fair to either of us to do anything else. Me and him need a little talk I think, w

So I am stuck using a web page to post, no problem, but its less convenient I think than having a good tool to automate it. I'd like to see more ways to post articles here as well. One thing I really like about Blogger/Blogspot is the "BlogThis!" button you can add to your link bar. Push on

What always amazes me is that in the eyes of these people nature is somehow so moral and perfect, but nature is far more carnivorous and brutal than we are. What always amazes me is that they don't consider humankind part of nature. What are we, artificial constructs? Animals do destructive thi
