Just by the by, I should note that there are things I *like* about

Probably because he's talking to his sighted roomate, who has a
much less intimate acquaintance with the widgets in question, and
cannot be expected to know that the purple one causes subtle tingling
feelings in specific places.

Since it's a second hand story, I may well have the basis of diffentiation
wrong as well.

You're right but it's one of those things that seems more obvious and
important at certain times.  Kinda like politics during the election year.
 Nobody talks much about it the other three years, but that fourth year
watch out its on everybodies mind, it even crept into soc.singles.

Aren't you ever sitting around thinking about life and realize how screwed
up something is.  It's pretty unlikely that it just now became screwed up,
you just happened to notice and it became mildly important to you and you
applied some brain power to it.

Less than  24 hours ago, I posted an article calling all of you
to vote on anonymous postings. The UVic system allows me to read
news but it's getting a bit wonky about posting. You are reading
this about 24 hours after my writing it, but here goes:

It has been brought to my attention that some people actually
like anonymous postings. This was indeed a surprise. 

Others have pointed out that the anonymous postings are fine as
long as there are no personal ads.

Yes, some people are shy, and for these people the anonymous
thing is fine. It gives them an opportunity to voice ideas and
opinions as well as solve personal problems with our help.

I know many of you by name only. I know some of you by the
aspects of your personalities that you portray on the net. To
most of you, I am just a bunch of words on a screen. I think
I'm still rather anonymous because most of you have never met
me in person, or had a conversation with me on the phone.

My argument is that News Groups are quite anonymous to begin
with. I personally see no need for any increased anonymity.

You may still vote on the issue by sending me email here or
at my other account. As promised, I will post the results on the
27'th of January, and I'll let you decide our plan of action
with your votes.

Uh oh.  I hope this doesn't mean I've lost my 5 minutes of net.music.critic
credibility.  It may grow on you, if you ever liked any of their other
stuff; it did on me (fairly quickly).  I especially like the song I've
been quoting in my sig.  (Stay tuned for verse 3.)  I hope the song means
what I think it means, which is that although it's tempting to rely on
someone else to make your life work, ultimately it's up to you.  In any
case, I'm going to keep on believing it means that unless Suzzy sends me 
email saying, "You nitwit!  You got it all wrong!"  

One weird thing I've noticed about the Roches is that the women I know are
much more likely to like them than the men.  I haven't seen that gender
split for any other group I can think of.  Some men like them a lot, but
I've never had the slightest luck predicting who would and who wouldn't.
Just one of those mysteries of life, I guess.

       But even when you have found someone who is right (or at least you
think is right) one must always have their own space.  For to lose one's
own space entirely is to loose one's identity.

       Discounting can be very frustrating but I think that all three
(now 4) parties have some very valid points.  My ex and I are now better
friends than we were when we were married.

       I know that I spent a LOT of time doing other things than paying
attention to her, BUT, when you are taking a full load at school, have a
Organic Chemistry Lab, Teach two Freshman Computer Science Labs, try to
program your pet projects (SilverBlade: The Advent, a BBS game, comming
soon...), watch the Dolphins play football, jog to keep healthy, eat,
sleep, get high, etc.

       It leaves just a little to be desired by your mate.  Now when I
did find time to spend with her she didn't want my attention cause she
felt that I was treating her as a charity case.  I felt real bad at
first, this was until I found out the REAL TRUTH!!

       She had been checking (screwing) other dudes on the side even
before we were married!!  Talk about pissing me off...  She now has
admited that she should have called off the marriage before we even
started planing the details.  But then again that's life right.

       There's lot's more to my saga, but I hate those posts that go on &
on & on...  So if you have any specific questions or want details, just
ask...  She hates computers now and I KNOW she isn't reading the net so
no prob!

	Or the young. There was a cast member last year for  whom
Watergate was as unnotable as the Teapot Dome Scandal,  who
had only heard of Woodstock as a bird in a comic strip (To pick
some recent events - he was really fuzzy on ancient history).

Boy am I glad I'm not part of this world on a regular basis because I
would rather not have you speaking for me, thankyouverymuch.
