I agree, that one line bothered me, too. The thing that gets me is, ma and pa computer user routinely f*ck up their machine, refuse to pay for needed upgrades, and call their ISP to help them install a game for their kids. I have been fielding tech support calls (in addition to my other duties) for about a year, and it burns my buns! These people don't know and they don't want to learn. "I'm computer illiterate." Well then turn the damn thing off and donate it to a school or something! Whew. Sorry for that, it's been a hellofa week.:)

Goddess, I love it when the status quo gets shaken up! Woo! To explain the 'rare more common than common' phenomenon, one need look no further than Hallmark or Precious Moments or crap like that: "We are all special, we are all unique, etc." Blah! Still giddy, this is cool!

I stayed on the honor roll through high school by learning the 'feedback baby' method. Figure out what the teachers want you to remember/say/do, and do that. With the other 23 hours of the day you learn about what you like, at your own pace. Nobody 'taught' me creativity, or imagination, or thinking on your feet. College was much the same, except you had to have at least 15 sources cited in your bibliography. (Yeah, I read all those books...) Public schools have potential, but unfortunately the good teachers are buried in political muck, and the good students drown in the wake of the brown-nosers.:-)

Yes, mah bruthas, the internet has turned me from a waitress with a creative writing degree into a savvy geeky webmistress! Happy Birthday, you sexy thing you! Give us a kiss! The Divine Creatrix in a Mortal Shell that stays Crunchy in Milk

Not sure where I saw this, but there was a video being circulated of a 'genuine' alien autopsy. A couple of film guys were watching it and giving a running commentary (like MST3K, but less funny), saying things like, "you can't fake flesh like THAT!" and "Wow, that's great blood, if it's fake." It was a black and white film of two guys taking apart what appeared to be a 5' tall alien, with the big head and huge black eyes, the whole bit. Whether the film guys were paid to say the film was real, sigh, you can beat it to death... So - is the govt., indeed, the govt.'s of the world, in some sort of agreement with aliens, as in - you farm, cover your tracks, and we get some technology? Or is it all a hoax by some agency who's farming people, doing DNA experiments, and getting some joy out of the occasional anal probe? Who can say...the universe is a BIG place... If anybody else remembers seeing that film...what did YOU think?

It really does chafe my buns when a client wants their company name, of course it's gone, and so is every combination of initials, their CEO's middle name, the name of the secretary's dog, etc.

I would expect no less from a dogma whose saviour was the product of a 'divine raping'. Really, think about what you're saying. Have you ever been raped? What about incestuous impregnations? And what in the name of the Great Green Goddess does this have to do with the teaching of evolution??!!

Indeed, Cassini does fit the prophetical bill... The Grand Cross is actually, for those who are interested, a line-up of planets in the fixed signs of the zodiac. We have Mars in Scorpio, the Solar eclipse in Leo, Saturn in Taurus and Uranus in Aquarius. And our little blue ball earth stuck in the middle. Anybody's life a little more tense/hectic than normal these days? This is why! Doubly so if you are one of the aforementioed fixed signs. Now what is really freaky is that the animal/humanoid representations of these fixed signs appear on cathedral windows and tarot cards all over the place...on the World tarot card, the four figures in the corners are the angel (Aquarius), the lion (Leo), the phoenix or griffin (Scorpio) and the bull (Taurus). What the heck does that mean? Not sure but I thought it worth mentioning. Somebody else can take it from here.;-) Class dismissed! Fornication in the streets begins promptly at 3!

Yes, mah brotha, I have seen geeks fall into the box out of loneliness, and it is really hard to come back out. But it CAN be done! ...introverting your lifestyle. You do what you know...

The Divine Creatrix in a Mortal Shell that stays Crunchy in Milk
...does it bother anyone else that they didn't plan for the eclipse? Aren't they supposed to KNOW about that sort of thing? "Gee, sir, won't the batteries go dead when the sun is blocked by our big fat earth?" "Shut up, twit, I'm the boss! Me! I'M THE BOSS! You're NOT! ME! ME! --- LAUNCH!!!"

Cripes, boys, the very fact that the 'tragedy' ended up on/. makes me ill. I do not watch tv because the media drives me nutso, and I come here this morning for a good dose of fact and insight and see that/. has been infected with this poop. Really, what the hell does technology have to do with media? You could make the same argument for pr0n and technology, or pyramid schemes and technology... this is simply a twisting of viewpoints as an excuse to spout off. And I myself have just added my voice to the din... Crap.
