sky- no. he did NOT skip your statement. i read his response to it before i got some sleep. you need to pay more attention when you put blame on someonerpg- i FAR from being hostile. if i was hostile, people would know it. as far as giving opinions in the past? yes i have. i have come to the conclusion when people talk more respectfull with time and patience, nothing hardly gets done. now i agree, my tone may not help, but it can't be any worse than what's been happening already with users being ignored in their complaints against this forum. opaque may be trying, but his efforts isn't good enough. that is a fact. another fact is, while other people were complaining for two months, i was watching and wating. i wasn't saying a word. i was on the complete other end of the spectrum. i wanted to wait and see.....wait and see....as time goes by.....more waiting.....more seeing.you think me being blunt right now is being hostile and it contradicts my loyalty? you better think again buddy. you wanted to bring up something bout not hiring high school dropouts or people without high school diplomas. well, this is opaques JOB. he chooses to make it his job. nobody is forcing him. this is what he chooses. if he was working for me, he'd be fired by now because there is absolutely no excuse for the forums to be in toilet water for so long. now you are intimating i am not loyal. i report the most posts, i talk more personally to the new users more than anyone else, i also go out of my way to help people on this forum....sometimes on a personal 1 on one level. i wont say more than most, but it sure ranks up high if it isn't more than most. i am also one of the select few people that has helped the chat room grow to what it is where the chat room in my opinion is one of the best decisions opaque could have made right now. so don't ever tell me i am not loyal or that just makes you look very foolish...as foolish as opaque who wanted to start blaming me for the forums problems thinking i made 3 mistakes when all i did was try to post.i don't expect things to run perfectly.....never have i expected that. i do expect the forums to run as smooth as possible within a reasonable amount of time. in the beginning i was as quiet as a mouse while i saw complaints and complaints and excuse after excuse and sometimes no excuse and no announcements whatsoever while the members were being ignored. i was quiet and supportive. now the time has come where i cannot be quiet opaque admitted his own self he doesn't even know what the errors or bugs are and there is no moderation team right now. opaque even went so far as to post publically that Xisto was out of beta and testing. all i need was go from one extreme, to the other extreme but i only went to the other extreme in the VENT CATEGORY. this is what it is used for, rpg. as a long term member, i would think you would understand what the vent is all about. just because i don't want to sit back quiet anymore does not mean i am being hostile and doesn't mean you have ANY RIGHTS to tell me what i can or cannot vent about. i am not breaking any rules. i am venting. i am not cursing or demeaning someone. i am VENTING and i will get my voice heard right now BY venting and finally taking as stand after 2 months of watching......waiting......and seeing. now maybe if it was in another thread, it would be inappropriate and i would watch my tone. and i do. if you see my other posts in other threads, i take a much more laid back approach. people have their own definitions of what this place means to them. i also have my own. nobody has to share my definition. nor am i expecting anyone to support my own definition of what this place means to me. to me, it's not only a place to share knowledge, but it's a place to meet new people within a tight community which can sometimes be considered "family" like. in this sense, all families don't get a long 24/7 and the longer you know a person, the more rights you have to speak up against someone or something if you think something needs to change. sometimes it can get hostile. i am sure everyone can relate. but right now, i am DEFINATELY not being hostile. just because people don't understand my intentions here or in fact don't know what is fully going on, should be no excuse to make quick judgements. i mean they can and i can even understand their points of view to an extent, but me understanding somewhat doesn't make them right their own selves.people do understand that this is a VENT, right? and admins.....just like celebrities are more prone to the opinions of others because they are more in the public eye and have an implied responsibility to the public....or in this case, it's members! and i dare ANYONE to tell me that anything i have said in this thread is not true. if anything i have said is not true and i have slandered someone with false accusations, speak up now or shut the heck up at how hostile i am being. as i have said many times before. what i say here has no bearing in how highly i look up to opaque. i think he's an incredible human being with a lot of knowledge to share and even a bigger heart to give.....but even HE has a lot to learn. not just from me with the loudest voice right now....but from everyone here who is crying out for his help!

i didn't make any mistakes. you did by not even realizing the problems. don't put your mistakes on me opaque haha you can't turn this around on me. that's funny you even try. also i refuse to write my posts in notepad for every post i make. that is ridiculous and time consuming. i noticed it the first couple times but didn't pay attention to it until the third time. also, i was giving the benefit of the doubt that it may have not been a forum error but an error i made when i posted. so at least i had the common sense to wait before i complained about it. you on the other hand are blaming me for something that isn't my fault? don't be like buffalohelp. your trusted admin. i expect more from you. blaming others for the forums problems will only make YOU look bad. not me....

well i was semi kiding about the balls and dino and mood thing but i was trying to make a point that there is a lot to do here, opaque doesn't even know half the problems and there is no prioritization going on. i mean, are we to assume the most important things are going to be done last? now who is trying to teach patience, wd? i AM patient, but that is besides the point. i am going to speak out now because enough is enough. i have all the patience in the world. that is the truth....but when it comes to other people, they don't and i see their points and i will support those people even if they don't have patience because in my opinion, enough time has past where this forum should be free of bugs and be running smoothly except for maybe the implimentation of the mycents system which i don't fully understand the complications. things should have been pre planned and thought ahead of time and they weren't. BIG BIG BIG MISTAKE and the same mistakes are happening. nothing is being preplaned. if they were, we would be able to actually post and veiw new content rather than seeing new balls or dinos haha. i mean it's so ridiculous it's actually funny and i am laughing right now because it IS funny in a sad kinda way. deadmad- wd isn't a pushover. she is just a very polite and understanding person who sees all sides. she is not blunt nor is she rude....just a little more respectfull in her words she uses. it's a very good quality but also a quality people take advantage of. what i also know about her is that she is a very smart person and would never flush her blog down the toilet in the shape the forums are in now. she's very dedicated in what she does so i do know that in the back of her head(even though she doesn't say it), opaque is wrong, the forums are a mess and things should be in the process of being complete and she is just as irritated as other people. now me? i am not her. i don't need the reputation she has or wants and i am not just speaking for myself but everyone here who is afraid to speak 100% of their mind and as long as buffalohelp has marked me as some clown and some rude guy who doesn't care about this place or it's members or the admins, i might as well live up to that part.....making sure i don't break the rules ofcourse...but that never really stopped buffalohelp from exceeding his powers of responsibility. so yea, i don't mind being the bad guy who will speak out for almost 100% of the active members here and look at poor rob. he logs in every single day! he already admited he doesn't post as much as he wants to because of how things are right now. the only thing really saving this place right now is the chat room opaque didn't want to implement in the first place. lucky he did because this place would me more of a ghost town right now. heck. even the chat room doesn't work fully but i would hate to complain about that too right now. and btw- i am not in a crappy mood because of the forums and i am not speaking out right now because i am in a crappy mood

i think most people will refer to them as "it". i think the real question here though is if you were to personally assign a gender to those things, what would the genders be. "it" is a very general word so i think the point of the thread was to be more specific. heck, i've referred to a baby as an "it" before i.e. "it's getting hungry" or "it's getting tired", etc...so let's start out simple. if you had to, would you say the sun is a HE or a SHE?

calm down? haha i am the one who started this thread. personally, i wont calm down until things get fixed around here. 3 days? the forum was messed up ever since the new upgrade, wd. it's just one thing after another. when something gets fixed, something else gets buggy. what do the admins expect, be patient forever? hope the forum gets fixed one day after a year? it's already been two months. ok ok ok....i can be patient for a couple weeks. a month is stretching it.....but it's been TWO MONTHS now. oh....we just put new colorfull balls and a dinasaur at the bottom of the page. ohhhhhhhh and we can choose a mood! wow! what about all those things that need fixing? about about all the new users who are complaining and leaving because they are confused and not collecting mycents as PROMISED? so yea....people want me to calm down? people want to shut me up because they don't like hearing the truth? then fix the darn forum PRONTO! or people will be hearing more from me. that should at least get some motivation in getting some crap fixed around here before this forum gets a bad reputation by it's own hands and bad choices... and mods don't even have mod powers now.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's been what....2 weeks now where the only mods are 2 admins? buffalohelp can't even do his job correctly and opaque is too busy coding some more colorfull balls. how anything is getting done around here is beyond me.....oh wait....very LITTLE is being done......well that better change.....

yes. everything you said makes absolute sense. but this forum just upgraded to a new version and a new domain. in fact, ALL keywords are suffering right now because of the change. since the forum upgraded, i am sure there will be some changes in how to properaly use seo. in face, opaque has stated in a previous thread that an seo module was screwing other things up. to give you an example, i created a thread which was #1 and #2 in the search engines for "dish network scam" and also "dish network fraud". i intentionally optimized that post for those keywords. after the change, those keywords are like on the 3rd page now. any seo we can do right now, we need to do because of the big loss suffered through the change.nothing seems to be perfect right now. i am more concerned with the functionality of the whole forum. also, if opaque actually spelled "Xisto" correctly with ONE k, maybe that keyword would be ranking higher haha. i think he is trying to take advantage of a misspelled keyword but to me it is just unprofessional and hurts the site more than helps it. so who knows :)all i know is the new domain needs a history before google starts ranking keywords higher for the new domain. this has always been the case for ALL new domains.also, being one who talks to new users regularly on this forum, the biggest complaint they have. i mean the #1 complaint for the majority of new users is that they get confused in how to sign up for mycents and earn hosting credits. although there have been threads on the subject and tutorials, it is obvious to me by the confusion that the information isn't readily available to new users who just can't find the information. this would be my #1 priority to impliment an easier way to pass information along to new users AFTER opaque gets the mycents system working again with the new forum upgrade

it's not tough to balance it. that's what moderators are for or haven't you forgotten? of course signatures are self serving! that's what signatures are there for. why should we promote this forum to make the forum look good in our signatures? what kinda of b.s. are you trying to make us believe here? do you feel that special, buffalo help? you feel above the rest of us again? signatures should be self promoting.....promoting whatever we would like to promote as long as it's legal and not against the rules. your limitations on loyal members really SUCK. you told me once that you are the best at what you do. that self rightious b.s. really has to go and you should really start thinking about other people your own self rather than run this forum in to the ground with your own rules. so not only do people have to put up with the bugs and the non activation of the mycents system, but they have to put up with you and your rules to limit them further in enjoying this community. signatures are supposed to be a little personal touch about the person who posted. even the online article websites give more room for personal promotion than you are giving LOYAL MEMBERS. now you are calling everyone who posts a personal link, SPAMMERS that you have to limit them? sorry, but you are wrong in setting such low limits and you really need to rethink your strategy here if you want happy members who make this forum money. i am not saying give enough space to allow signatures to overtake the form. you mentioned BALANCE. what you did isn't BALANCE. it is a RESTRICTION from balance. all you did was go from one end to the spectrum to the complete opposite end. i agree with you. there SHOULD be balance and compromise.....so my question to you is, when are you going to provide some? and when are you going to look out for the loyal members here? now is a good time to start rather than have everyone hate you all the time. don't you agree?

i wouldn't say the people who come here for the hosting services credits are leechers. it's not like anything they are getting is free. they have to spend the time and energy to post. remember. this is also a business. the free accounts can then be converted to cash paying accounts over time and it's also a good advertsiement for Xisto - Web Hosting in general. this post to host concept is the same concept yahoo used when they were giving away free email addresses to people. it's actually good business practice so if they really are considered leechers(which in my opinion they are not), they are still the ones that made these forums thrive in the first place and grow to where it was affordable to give more hosting service credits rather than just a sub domain.

in the last 24 hours, i have been posting, but 3 of my posts were never recorded. i spent about 1/2 hour for those 3 posts that were never recorded. basically, i would hit reply, write a response, and hit the post button. after that, i noticed my posts never showed up! this is getting ridiculous. this forum is getting to be a waste of peoples time and effort. i don't care about the excuses anymore. there is more wrong with this forum than people who's posts aren't showing up. EITHER FIX THIS PLACE OR CLOSE IT DOWN. you have new users coming here for free webhosting and domains and they can't even get them. it's false advertising! this place is suckering people in for the traffic knowing all too well that the credit system has been messed up for over 2 months now. new users can't even get what they came here for! this is insulting not only to new users, but to old members. and anyone who is supporting this forum is supporting the fact that new users are getting SCREWED!so fix the darn forum or close it down.....or better yet, sell it so someone who knows how to run it properly and fix all this mess can do it and leave the members more satisfied than they are now!so personally, i don't want to be wasting my time if i spend a lot of time trying to post and it never gets recorded. how ridiculous and frustrating! Notice from opaque: Title Changed

i don't think "death" is the opposite of life, it is a part of life and we should learn and understand about the different aspects of life in order for us to change for the better. it's not the fear of death that allows people to change. it's realizing our own time limits before we pass on. those time limits can be great motivators. the only way i will see fear is a good thing is if it makes people more aware without being paranoid. fear can be a very good thing. it can also be a very bad thing and limit people in many ways. i really likes wd's take on the issue of death not just for our own death but the death of others who are close to us where their memory will live on and where they will not be forgotten. death of others makes us more aware and teaches us something about our own lives. at least it's supposed to....wether it's a natural death or not. wether someone dies of old age or someone dies from a drive by shooting. death is life......life is death. they are connected....not opposite eachother. when people are diagnosed with a terminally ill disease like cancer or aids, these people without a doubt think about their life more. like WD said in her post, they can either dwell on the bad and screw their life up more in their little time they have left, or do something good with it knowing they still have those choices and opportunities to change and make the best with what they have.

again, i would go with toshiba any day of the year. they have recently made a name for themselve and the quality laptops they produce. this is why in the last year or so, the price of toshiba laptops have increased. people realized the quality and the good repair history and started buying toshiba.

oh different parts of the country. heck, i remember being told by one police officer to leave their state and never come back haha. same thing happened in missouri when i lived in some small town. the sherrif told someone that they were going to run me out of town. it's actually quite funny because you really only hear that in the movies but seems to be more common in the thinking of law enforcement than people realize. people just don't hear about that stuff that goes on. i am white and the majority of the police officers i have ever dealt with were white so there was no racial issues there. racial issues still happen unfortunately and they aren't just related to the police. but one of my best friends in the world is black. he was pulled over and stopped and harrassed because his color and his car didn't fit in with the neighborhood. when asked why he was pulled over, the police never said. my friend is a high school teacher and going on to take more schooling for a principle position. it's not like he wasn't a respectable citizen of the community. my same friend, during the l.a. riots after the rodney king verdict had a big swastica spray painted on his families house. it's really sad but racial issues are not just directly related to the police but it IS a big problem with police and their prejudices and an excuse to over step their authority due to personal tastes.

although the forums are a place to share knowledge, it is also a business. a business that gives back to it's members by giving them hosting credits. the forums and all the subforums with long description titles are better for seo. the serch engines will pick up the topics faster and rank them higher which means more people will see those topics and click on ads. if we couldn't optimize the site for seo purposes, there would be less income and then there would be less credits to give away. it works out the best for everyone when people come here for free webhosting.i agree on your 1st and 2nd points 100%!!! opaques excuse is that he is doing the majority of the work. with all the problems it creates, it's obvious, he is not able to do the majority of the work in a timely fashion. i can relate and understand about his trust issues. he also explained the othr things happening in his life right now that he has to oversee. it was in a thread he started about a week ago. but when people come here for mycents and webhosting and domain credits, these excuses don't really mean much. this forum is letting too many people down right now to be good business practice.

that is so cute...rpg. what kind of dog do you have?i dunno about how animals are better problem solvers than humans though. that seems like a far fetched statement to me :)at the same time, my dog has a very good memory. he likes the tennis ball so when i was at my parents house for a few weeks, i tested him. i would tell him to stay while i throw a tennis ball in to a big ivey patch of about 5 yard x 40 yards from 100 feet away. i would have him sit for 30 seconds, then tell him to fetch. he remembered exactly where i threw it, would bury his nose in the ivey and get the ball. everyone who witnessed that was amazed. a few times before i would go to bed, i would bring my dog with me and throw his ball outside. i would let him look at it for 5 seconds and then bring him back inside to go to sleep. 8 hours later when we woke up, i would open the door and tell him to get his ball. he would run straight for it remembering where i threw it the night before. another test i gave him which was amazing playing fetch for him a couple times outside. my parents have a tennis court so i put about 25 balls in the corner of the court. i my dog and i would sit about 30 feet away. i would cover his eyes and roll the ball i was playing fetch with him with in to the mixture of the 25 other tennis balls. after the ball would stop rolling and mixed in, i would uncover his eyes and tell him to fetch. every single time, he would sniff out that same ball and bring it back. he would never bring back the wrong ball. i didn't teach him this stuff. this was just how he was born. i think animals can definately problem solve. i also think some animals are born with natural insticts to problem solve for their survival and have very good memories.....but better than human? hmmmmmmi remember watching a documentary once when in the fall, the camera followed a bird who was hiding food in the ground to prepare for winter. when winter came, the ground was covered with snow but the bird came back when it was hungry and dig in the snow and then dig in the dirt in the EXACT same spot it buried it's food. truely amazing when the ground left no markers or anything to remember the ground by after being covered with snow.i know talking about how smart animals are isn't really on topic to how loyal they can be, but in some cases it just shows how people can not only underestimate their abilities, but their true loyalty. to me it's a shame that people don't witness it or share in some of those experiences because to me, it's all amazing and wonderfull to witness and be a part of just like watching a child grow up

i am like you. i talk to my dog a lot like a human and he understands a lot of what i am saying including the tone. i also know what HE is thinking because he is always willing to show me signs. people just don't pay attention to those little things about animals to know any better unfortunately. i think it's a shame.

i think it all depends on what is hurting and how you are holding the item. ultimately though, if you hold anything in your hand, it's going to put pressure on the wrist whether you bend it or not so even with a wrist brace, it can still injure your wrist depending on how you are holding an object. if the wrist is so sensitive to holding things, it might even be sensitive when you aren't holding anything at all and just clench your fist which would also put pressure on the wrist. the only reason why i know is because my wrist used to be sensitive at one time of my life when i would have to carry car windshields all the time and load the on and off the truck for deliveries. over time, i had a hard time holding them because of my wrist. i would have to relieve the pressure by twisting my wrist a certain way and cracking it. even just lifting a suitcase was hard on the wrist and that doesn't require lifting the arm or anything. i never wore a wrist brace. i just had to take it easy on my wrist. or it would have gotten a lot worse, so again, i would not only wear a wrist brace, but i wouldn't life a thing unless i really had to or the wrist WILL get worse over time. arm exercises will be limited right now. i still highly suggest wrist exercises by rolling your wrist to the left and then to the right, up and down and repeating that with nothing in your hand. there are more, they are just hard to explain in words but you can probably find pictures on the net with a description. some wrist exercises take two hands.

no. i think anything you lift will probably put a strain on your wrists so i would highly advise you start using a good wrist brace from now on when you do your lifting. you have the right idea. what you can do in your spare time is try to do wrist exercises that may help strengthen your wrist muscles. that would probably be your best bet for the long run. i don't think there is any short tern cure for your arm muscles without straining your wrists further.

wow. what doctor did you go to? sounds like a quack like a lot of the other doctors out there. proteins is not the only thing vegetarians will be defient on. as far as documentaries, how old was it and how was this test group picked. i have read upon nutrition for a long time now. just a little hobby of mine in my spare time. although there are theories that support vegetarians, i have to say the theories for meat eaters sound more realistic and their studies are more thorough when it comes to supporting eating meat over not eating meat. but like i said in my previous post, too much meat is a bad thing. you can't just eat red meat every day as it's the red meat that can be proven more dangerous if you eat too much of it. my whole point in my previous post was the fact that the older vegetarians get, the more their body break down compared to meat eaters. it's just a proven fact. i can probably go searching on the net right now and find articles to support my statements. also, i will never trust doctors. sometimes i have to take their word, but their words are scary sometimes because a lot of doctors don't know what they are talking about even going through 8 years of studying their own profession. i don't trust them and if other people do, i feel these other people are fooling themselves. so unless you are talking to a specialist in a certain area, i wouldn't trust them even 1%. also, canabolism is when a human eats human meat. not animal meat. there is a BIG difference. another thing- there is a reason why i picked 100 as an age to go by when the average age right now is what....85? if we could know the percentage of vegetarians compared to meat eaters. let's say there are 5 vegetarians to every 95 meat eaters. that would mean 5% of the worlds population is vegetarian. if we count up all the people who lived past 100 and then figure out how many were vegetarian, i would bet it would be less than 5% which would mean vegetarians do not live longer. i just made up these numbers on the top of my head but it would be an interesting study and it's probably already been done! i just haven't found that one yet....and i dare someone to prove me wrong....

well this is why i wanted to give personal examples. for instance, people don't pull their weapons when they pull over a vehicle for a traffic violation when they break the law. this is the lowest crime someone can commit which would be considered an infraction. so when someone doesn't break any laws and gets a weapon pulled on them, it gets fishy. plus, was it just a coincidence i could name two instances this happened in two totally different locations within a 2 month period of time? no. once maybe. not twice. police abuse their powers PERIOD. the problem is, nobody hears about those cases because they are never fought or in public eye. it's one thing to draw your weapons on someone innocent. it's another issue when they drag you in jail KNOWING you are innocent just to buy time to come up with a good reason in what they did in the first place that was wrong. so now it's twice the police did something against someone's rights. now, i can sit here and say i am not a criminal, but i have been in jail several times. i have met a whole slew of people and getting to know people on a personal level in jail is also very interesting. 1/4 of the people in there don't even deserve to be in there. and it's also interesting the authority the police pull once you are IN jail that NOBODY sees. there was one instance where i was the jail had to be locked down. and this 80 year old man with a walker wasn't moving fast enough....so while everyone was already in their cell, i was helping this old man. sooner than you could blink an eye, tasers were pointed at the both of us. well, i am not going to go back to my cell when the police are going to cause this old man a heart attack because he can't move fast enough. the reason there was a lock down in the first place? because people were yelling at an employee of the prison who hit a cell mate in the face behind a counter and they wanted the sheriff to come and acknowledge the situation since it was all caught on tape. the police are criminals on the outside AND on the inside. i have stories to tell because i don't like the b.s. that goes on. but if i can people people think in what they are doing is wrong, then maybe i can make a difference rather than not be smart with my mouth or defy authority knowing i am right and they are wrong. i witnessed some guy pass out right next to me when he was standing up. he hit is head on a cabinate before he feel down and hit his head again. rather than wait for medical attention, one policeman dragged him to his cell. afterwards, he had to wait 2 hours for medical attention because the county didn't want to fork over the medical bills. unexeptable. i can go on and on in what i experienced. corupt cops is only one of the problems. to me, it's the people who do and say nothing who are the biggest problem. if people could stop being selfish and stand up for themselve and other people, some of this crap wouldn't happen. not only that, but the inside of a courtroom supports corrupt cops. they have to or the whole system would fall apart. judges and prosecuting attorneys have to support their police officers or they thing people will be able to get away with anything. you think the inside of a courtroom is blind in what goes on? they know what goes on because they are a part of the corrupt system. that's why they invented plea bargaining. it's a game once a suspect is charged with something. once it gets plea bargained down, the suspect, now a victim of a currupt system can feel good about the deal compared to the original charge. make them happy and the wont make a scene. it's how to control people. although i can tell many stories about myself, i can tell 10 times more stories about other people who i have gotten to know while hearing their own stories.i was brought up to be respectfull to the police. naw. i don't think so. the way i was brought up was wrong. i can't turn my head when i see something bad happening to me or others because i know if i don't make people think, it will happen to someone else. when i see a police officer beating someone up while i am handcuffed. should i just sit and watch it or do something. i was forced in this situation once and got charged with a felony. second degree assault on a police officer in a small town where i was considered an outsider. what did they do? well i sat in jail for 14 days, they dropped it down to a misdemeanor with time served and no probation. that is unheard of. why they give me such a deal because they knew they were wrong and after they knew their scare tactics wasn't working, they had to do something to shut me up. kicked a cop 10 times in the side. 14 days, no probation. almost like it never happened. where in the world do you see this if the police are RIGHT? NOWHERE!my parents say to be more respectfull. they say i should watch someone get beat up and save myself from jail before i try to protect someone else. you know what? i say, let them live a safe life hidden from reality and let me experience what i have to because it's inside me to experience. sometimes i tell people i've been in jail and i don't even tell them why. they look at me like i am some criminal. oh yea, 15 times in jail, guns drawn on me several times, beaten up by the police and the only thing that ever stuck was a whole 14 days in jail for a felony. but i don';t care if people think i am a criminal hearing how i've been in jail. the people who really know me know i give the shirt off my back for someone else.i am just one guy who has many stories about the police out of millions and millions of people living in the united states. but nobody hears about their stories because they don't talk about them and nobody would have heard a part of my story either if someone didn't post a thread about abusive police. that's why i say don't be fooled. corruption is everywhere. people just turn a blind eye to it never really know the real truth in what goes on unless it's video taped and sent all over the news and internet.

no. i didn't break any laws. that's why both times i was released later without being charged for anything. it was just circumstance and the police abusing their powers. i mean, i didn't even have a weapon on me either time yet they still found it necessary to branish theirs and point a deadly weapon on me. i have other stories about the police. first hand experiences but this isn't about me. i just wanted to give a few first hand examples of what i have personally been through and witnessed. i wanted to show that the police can do anything they want even if it goes against the policy of their own police dept.. usually, nothing will come of their abuse in powers. people know me as sometimes argumentative and blunt and someone that wont take any crap. at the same time, that is the same way i deal with the police who have a hard on in harrassing people. so sometimes i ask for what happens but it's the whole principle. people should stand up more in what they believe....even if it comes with a price!

ok. i found my video recorder that can also take digital pictures so i took a few. my kept a lot of my things when i had left. i do have an olympus d-580, that i also found yesterday but i don't have an xd card. the pictures turned out like crap...but the best i can do under the circumstances. i will post them later.... just a few pictures around my apartment....

really? i don't understand how some people can go through life not eating anything that was once alive. also, show me a vegitarian who lived to be 100. human beings by nature are meat eaters AND plant eaters. to me, the people who choose to be vegitarians are people who are going against nature and they certainly wont live as long doing so. this whole planet revolves around life AND death and killing(whether it an animal, plant, insect, etc...) to survive. it's the cycle of life pal. the whole animal kingdom knows it. why don't you? if you have trouble understanding, then you need to open your mind up more to what makes the world go round. my sister is vegitarian. she made that choice 20 or so years ago. she is mainly raising her kids vegitarian. i really feel sorry for the kids because they don't know any better right now. the adults should be smart enough to at least give the kids the nutrients they NEED for a well rounded dietary intake. my sister is 2 years younger than me. she doesn't drink or smoke but she's a vegitarian. i drink, smoke, and eat meat and two years older and i will bet my life savings that i live longer than she does. i may be killing my self slowly, but she is killing herself faster. fruits and vegitables are VERY healthy for you. some of the most healthiest foods you can eat. so is meat as like as you prepare it right and don't eat an abundance. some people say meat is murder. i say NO meat is murder as you deprive yourself in what a normal body needs.
