Ok, during GalIICiv, I posted to the forums and now it appears twice in the forum list.  With the same AID. But yesterday, I posted regular, and now it is showing double, with the same AID! 108830. I only got Lasik 18 months ago!  Dont tell me I am seeing double!  please! Just an FYI for the less hysterical among us.

I remember when politics did not define your friends.  It was not that long ago.  I was dating a very sexy and wonderful dyed in the wool liberal!  She was fun! But that seems to have changed with the polarization that has been forced upon us by those who refuse to acknowledge the constitution of the United States, and its election laws defined therein. Now, we must cling to our political leaning buddies like the Ants in Ice-9 (and that is distasteful to write if you have re...

Growing up, I always knew about Psycho. My mother was so traumatized by it.  I did not see it unti llater in life, but one thing I did know=.  Dont come into the bathroom when my mother was taking a shower! I eventually did see it and it was a great movie!  More so that it was in black and white and there has been nothing close since then, nor given the reliance on special effects, I suspect there will be any like it in the future.  It is a classic. I married a woman wh...

Yes, enough is enough. We had another walk out. I learned of it belately as I was gone for a dozen days. And this one was by a major one in terms of posts and presense. Ok, it happens. She did it before. But I think those that are trying to turn every statement, every response into a "us vs them" thing are way out of line. It has already spawned other flame wars, that are just plain stupid due to not understanding. And it has spawned other blogs for the same reason. Ok, I have written one of...

Deference got Moderateman to thinking of what friendship is, so MM wrote a blog on it.  And the answers so far are very insightful.  But thinking further on it, I wanted to add to my response to MM. Friendship is the ability to tell your friend they are wrong when they are wrong.  While they may think what they are doing is right, a true friend will get in your face and tell you why they think it is wrong to do something.  If that destroys the friendship, then it was never...

The 12th Annual Memorial Scholarship Fundraiser for my Wife's Nephew is now history and it was another grand success.  But it entails traveling across country, so I left my JoeUser behind.  Which upon my return I find that so did everyone else for most of while I was gone as Stardock just had a smash hit on its hands with its latest game!  (Congratulations Stardock!).  So I guess I did not miss much goings on.  In years past, there was always the inevitable "I am leaving...

I just did an experiment.  I posted an article to my blog and made sure (twice) that it was not in the forums.  Guess what?  It was. I then tried a third time, and I guess 3 is the charm. Now I know many of late have been nailed for posting in forums.  And yes this one did name some names (none in a bad light).  However, if this bug is out there, how many others have been nailed for posting in forums when they did not mean to? Mine was NBD.  But others are....

Today we had a major server meltdown.  Not just any server, THE DHCP server.  This single point of failure was designed by my supposed superior (in his mind).  It was a hardware failure that I warned about 7 months ago.  But would my little pissant boss listen to me?   Dont make me laugh. But due to some due dilligence on my part (and wholly unauthorized, so I will be written up for it), we were back in Business in less than an hour, with just the clean up taking...

I think JU needs to do one of those holograms for creating accounts.  I counted almost a dozen new accounts that are all BuyDRUGX, and all selling some drug or another.  They may be legal, but do we need it? What next, a dozen selling "male enhancement" "all natural" stuff? Boo on the spammers!  Go spam our mailboxes and stay off JU!

I posted one, not in the forums, and it was.  I posted one in the forums and it was?  No real harm.  And the forums are over 12 hours out of date. I guess they are just whacky. T-Man is on vacation!

With total attributes to Chaos Manager, I would like to add my own take.  His was great!  And indeed I cannot surpass him.  But I want to add my own. My Blessings! God how they are great.  I, like him have 4 blessings.  2 Girls and 2 Boys.  And proud?  Every one is as good or better than I! And each one a different person!  With their own interests! I am a computer nerd.  I love them and sink into their innards with glee!  None of my chi...

Yes, My son.  I took him to see Hostel,  and it was disgusting.  But what did he see?  He saw the artistic direction, and the actors as they played out the sadistic movie.  He saw art, I saw just garbage! But that is who he is.  I go to a movie to see a show.  He goes to it to critique it.  He is my son and I do love him.  And I hope he really does take hollywood by storm!  He is that good! But what do you see?  You see a part of me.&n...
