Great blog Gid. It sounds like you have been able to cut through all the crap thrown your way and see what it really boils down to. Hope all works out well for you.

Reply to What is the internet to you? in Living in Cyberspace JoeUser Forums

Hmmm. I disagree with the site completely. The author just comes across as a jaded, bitter and cynical jackass who has lost the ability to think for him/herself. The internet is a tool. Nothing more, nothing less. Just like a hammer isn't crap, but can be used for crappy things, the internet isn't crap either. Like my most recent blog, blaming the internet for what people do that sucks is lame. There is a wealth of information and options t

I don't find any of them fascinating at all. What a bunch of tools. Hell, I'm more fascinating than they are.

Have you ever thought to yourself that, since most of the people here don't understand the way our brotherly relationship works, they probably think we're supreme jerks to each other? You mean we're not? Oh. I have been confused for all these years. <TABLE cellpadding=

What excuses people have for putting themselves into bad situations again and again are just that, excuses. No one wants to feel that it is their fault. Very true Geezer. Very true. I actually just saw a rerun of Scrubs that was along these lines. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="m

Hmmm. Unfortunately I haven't seen Wolf Creek (actually don't remember ever hearing about it either). I think I might have enjoyed the story more had the ending made sense for me. But that isn't a fault of the author, just mine for not knowing. Overall I liked it though.

Say "No" to destiny in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

Fate, destiny, luck. Call it whatever you want, but I believe they all boil down to one thing: absolving oneself of personal responsibility. Sure, random things do happen. Entropy is just a law of the universe. However, under it all I believe that we are agents of our own will. We are free to act or be acted upon, and reap the consequences and repercussions of our actions. This does not annul my belief in a divine creator. I

Actually, I see nothing wrong with charging a buck or two for the themes and gamer pics. They give you plenty for free, and there are lots that not everyone is going to want. So why not charge for a bit? I agree that the payment for unlockables is BS. But for themes and gamer pics, I have no problem with that.

Every once in a while I will have moments like this. You don't ever really get to "know" the person, but you converse like old friends. I think it is often a reminder just how much good we can do by being kind and friendly to those around us. Great blog Raven.

Reply to Which is Nobler: Helping the World or Your Family? in Politics JoeUser Forums

Feeding your own children is good, but not as good as feeding the same number of children who aren't related to you. Unless I am just reading this completely wrong, I couldn't disagree more. It would seem to be that this attitude just continues to propogate the nothing of standing around, waiting for someone else to come help.&nb
