Got your attention did't I?

I'm pretty neat and tidy for a guy and enjoy keeping my bedroom like it was in a nice hotel when I check in. Fresh sheets on the bed, laid on properly, room dusted and vacumed. As for what caught your attention with this post I would have to say that at my age, I am not as good as I once was, but I am as good once as I ever was.

I do landscape photography and I have just recently met a guy who is younger then me who also does photography. I met him through my Christian support workers colleague. He�s a nice guy but I am very nervous around men because I was hurt very badly by my X and my confidence is not very good and I get anxiety attacks.

I am worried that he thinks I�m a bit odd because I am always apologising and has already made hints that we might not be on the same wavelength etc. I can�t... [Read More]

A sad day, I'm sure he would want all of us to "Live long and prosper".

Thanks for the memories.

My guess would be both. Republicans love to bully and they love their donors more than the voters at large.

Those republicans hate big government unless they can use it to pacify their donors while simultaneously bullying local officials who actually work for the constituents. Does Harris believe only dems want marijuana reform?

I have not posted in this section for awhile, and I kind of don't want to see it wasted away. Its like seeing a house you used to live in, just rotting away. I hope its okay with the members if I try and shoot a little life into it, and then be on my way again. I have been playing the arcade games here, and hoping someonelse would do it, but perhaps there is just not much interest.

Did you know that even in religion, the thoughts can go deep? I mean not the general basic stuff,... [Read More]

So the way I understand it, comcast can't make Netflix pay more because it wants smoother delivery of its product than Amazon Primes product.

That means there won't be additional cost to be passed on to me from Netflix.

But who is going to end up eating those costs if Comcast needs to make the same profit for its shareholders?

Hard to believe that he would kill himself over something that is fast becoming an honest endeavor here in the states. Do you suppose he was just embarrassed?

I saw this article yesterday in the local Metro. I thought it so odd that I decided to post it here except that I misplaced the paper and forgot all about it until just now. So I searched Google to see if I could find it again, surprised to find out that it even made “Mail Online”!

Sara was to celebrate her 21st. birthday so her boyfriend hung those puffy balloon things in the window stating “21”. Well, seeing it in reverse (from outside) it resembles IS (Islamiska... [Read More]

When some sickness/disease strikes the population, scientists get their acts together and investigate why and how cures can be found. Sometimes they can find answers fairly quickly, but other times they take years of deep investigation and still fail to find a solution.

Alzheimers seems to be on the increase, and I wonder to myself why.

In 1988 my brother and his wife were holidaying in Cornwall and they read in a local newspaper of an incident which happened at a... [Read More]

I never got how the guy could be found not guilty and even be subject to the possibility of different charges.

I've never heard of the chikungunya virus until this morning, but there's a leed article in the Jamaica Gleaner.

It's mosquito-borne and I'd hate to have it. It appears to be widespread around the world. It's not lethal in the way malaria is, but even so.

I read through this and was agreeing most of the way, then it turned into a bit of a loony rant.
I can follow the logic and agree with much of it, and suddenly all the authors logic goes out the window.
Not for those with a short attention span.....ie myself.
