  1. there's no doubt that i'd be a travel writer ... that would be the coolest job ever.- i love to travel and i love to write stuff ... actually, i'd probably be a web editor for a travel magazine. that way i could keep in with all the web stuff and still be able to do the traveling and writing. that would be just about the ideal job. in fact, i'm trying to get there... this kind of stuff just takes a little bit of time.. )
  2. just so you know ... this actaully made international news. but ... at on that note ... it is an important issue that needs to be addressed more. i think i'm changing my views, in light of the pope's death, that there is something to be said about nature, god, etc by going through suffering. now, of course, easy for me to say when i'm not the one doing any suffering. i do, however, believe 100% that they have the right to terminate her life if that was her wish. i don't care if it's from a gun or not... it shouldn't even be an issue.my point is that, from the pope's lessons, that suffering a part of life ... you shouldn't run away from it. actaully i don't have a concrete thought now, but i'm not against suffering.
  3. for windows, it's extremely bad for your computer - every windows server should be rebooted at least once a week... for your desktop pc though, i would imagine the same ... there are so many memory leaks all over windows. hence, the famous blue screen of death ... which in fact i keep getting with my new xp system. i hate it!
  4. huge! i love it. wasn't too long ago, in the US, wal-mart started selling a linux based OS system for $500 (since i'm not in the US, i can't confirm that - it's just what i read.anyways, i'm very happy about all this - mostly because i've been fed up with microsoft for a while now - for obvious reasons. when 99% of all home computer users require 1) web browser for email and surfing 2) dialup capabilities (ie a modem) 3) some sort of software for spreadsheets and word processing (ie openoffice).no more! so this kind of stuff is going to catch...
  5. i'll make a tip for you, since i just went through some learning as well.#!c:\perl\bin\perl -wuse CGI qw/:standard/;this will also help with the Xisto website when you get going.1) you'll need to change the 1st line of your perl to: #!/usr/bin/perl -w2) make sure you keep using the CGI init the way you are... i spent about 3 hours trying to fix what was happening, and got really confused about it ... but i had use CGI qw(:standard) ; #-- BAD!!!i have no idea why, but it works fine on my computer.
  6. i had a blackberry at one time ... it was not the one with a phone, but listen, life is not good when you have a mobile phone, pager, and a blackberry with emails. i was a complete disaster ... my boss emailing at 10pm, calling, paging, etc etc. like, i like work ... but that's a little overboard ... especially for my first job out of college.well, safe to say that drove me over the edge, and i quit and traveled around the world for a year ... hey, so it wasn't that bad.what i'm trying to say is sometimes all of this stuff isn't necessary and it'll wind up driving you crazy.
  7. hello whyme, thanks for the assistance i'll just copy and paste the beginning of the error page ... my site - kokeshi.trap17.com, is re-directed to http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ here's the text: This Account Has Been Suspended Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.

  8. hey - sounds like exactly the purpose of a "form" ... you should be able to have all that textarea / fields in your form, then click submit, and the next page will analyse and make your code. very standard - i always refer to http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp as a good place to find this information. <form name='go' action=process.cgi> <textarea name=stuff1></textarea> <input type=text name=stuff2> <input type=submit value='go!'></form> This will send values of stuff1 and stuff2 to process.cgi. hope that helps - and hope it's kinda what your talking about ...
  9. it is very sad, indeed. i really didn't know how spectacular of a man he was until some of the news coverage today. his life was very tough at the start, and he's really done a tremendous amount for peace. i think he kind of reached out to all people, not just catholics, which is very honerable. he's the only pope i've ever known - he began his popehood (is that what it is?) when i was born.
  10. Hello, my account has been suspended and I receive the message screen telling me this. I have not received an email, and I have the necessary credits.Maybe this was an accident? Please help...Thank you in advance.Regards,John
  11. there's no doubt that japan committed very serious crimes 50+ years ago - some of the most serious in modern history. times have changed quite a bit though - and japan is now a free country without it's oppresive emporor systems.it's time to forget about what they've done in the past - it was a completely different era. The US, which is responsible for defending Japan today, is considering pulling it's forces from Japan and let them manage their own defence. The problem, though, is that their constitution only allows them to have peacekeeping forces, not a real military (which is why you see Japan Peacekeeping in Iraq, not Japan Military)They are no longer a threat, unless the world continues to put Japan on the back burner and their economy goes up in smoke. Then anything can happen (as with any country).
  12. wow... being that my work computer is only 9G, that's pretty incredible. someday, when the prices go down, i'm gonna get one of those ipods which play movies and pictures and stuff. that'd be pretty cool to travel around with too.
  13. i'm pretty sure if i were paralyzed, i'd be closely watching this. i mean, we wouldn't be able even use a computer if paralyzed, life would be completely different. good for them. i can just see it now, though, you get spam or some crap in your brain ... or someone sending signals to make your body do something, and there's nothing you can do about it. sounds like a science fiction book or something.
  14. well, i bought microsoft stock 3 years ago and i've lost about 1/2 of it's value. so ... i've not been too happy with it. actaully, everything i've invested in hasn't done to good. i'm hoping though, in 15 years, that microsoft stock will be worth a little forturne. as much as i disagree with so many of their products, they are a money maker.
  15. funny because yesterday i did my first text message ever (yah, i guess i'm living in the stone ages) and it took about 15 minutes to make about 10 words.
