what do you think?

Not bad!

This is gonna be an unusual one, but appropriate for this site.

Yes, you ultimately cannot save people from themselves. When people are unwilling to take responsibility for themselves, the only option left is an institution. Unfortunately, it is too difficult to institutionalize people these days--due to budgets and civil libertarians crying about "rights."

So we don't provide those people with the help that they need, and they perish. That, according to the civil libertarians, is more humane than putting them in psychiatric hospitals.

I disagree.

The revival of this site is amazing.

Thanks! I thought the site would never return to its former glory! Thought it was just dead, dead, dead!

Lost the battle.

By the way, I cut the cable. Now about my wife and I watch on TV is Netflix. We have indoor antennas to catch programs on the airwaves, so we can get local news if we want. We had a big cable package and I got sick of all the Allstate, Liberty Mutual and My Pillow commercials! It's axiomatic that the worst companies advertise the most.

I couldn't care less about sports programs--they bore me and I consider them to be a complete waste of time.

In the USA, you can get streaming services and replace just about everything you lost by cutting the cable. Not so much in Canada. I had the VPN known as "Smart Proxy" for a while. Don't get it. That service uses email support--worthless. When you need help, you need it NOW, and you may need someone to guide you through steps. Email support is worthless for that.

At least we finally had my revenge on the cable companies that were making us pay for channels we never watched!

If the Republicans get rid of net neutrality, it will prove that they tilt toward the rich.

It seems that every time they get in power, they do stupid stuff and blow it.

I am making this post in memory of Tord Martell who passed away around 2 years ago.

I am very sorry to hear about it.

Not Djibouti, but West Africa.

Rockster is a great guy. Amazing that he replicated the old format.

Now it just needs some ranking in Google!

I've been having character asasinations for trying to help the mentally ill on Facebook.

A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country . . .

No good deed goes unpunished.

You now see the truth in these proverbs!

Iโ€™m wondering if thereโ€™s a term for this:

Well, Araz, you did the right thing. Working for family can be very, very difficult!
