  1. My dad taught science for 35 years .... my complete ineptitude in the subject must have been a real thorn in his side ..... my sister made up for my failings though, she excelled in science .... my own experience of science teachers is a bit of a mixed bag .... my physics teacher was criminally boring .... however my chemistry teacher was at the other end of the spectrum. He spotted early on that I had no talent for the subject and used to bring in monty python books and we'd sit at the back of the class and howl for most of the lesson, .... I suppose in hindsight, that didn't make him a very good teacher did it? .... and yet I remember him with affection .... on the whole, I'd say I hated my school days with a passion .... once you leave though, you really never look back ..... it's all just a distant nightmare .....
  2. First thing I'd do is find some quality professional financial advisors ..... trying to manage that amount of money on your own would be a nightmare .... then I'd work out whose gonna benefit from my good fortune .... family, friends, charitable organisations .... Xisto, after all that, I'd just look around for some property, travel, maybe have some cosmetic surgery, (to rectify 42 years of living a "complicated" life) .... buy a man, (kidding ..... not!) the best thing about having all that cash, is the high you'd get from giving it away to others .... giving really is better than receiving .... Oh, and how much would $1 billion be in pounds sterling? .... I'm thinking it might be something approaching £1.7 billion .....
  3. ooh, movie questions ...... great .... although my fave movie list changes constantly .... currently it goes thus .... Alien The Godfather (1&2) Wonderboys Amelie The Royal Tennenbaums Bulworth Chinatown The Searchers Jean de Florette & Manon de Sources Lake Placid All About Eve and without question, my ultimate fave is The Lord of the Rings trilogy .... Peter Jackson is an absolute genius ..... in my humble opinion....
  4. Oh really? you certainlty don't speak for the masses ..... the majority of women I know most definately expect equality..... not superiority, just equality thankyou very much .... oh and, you're not imlying that there's anything wrong with being an atheist are you NovaTerrra, or have I just misunderstood your last post?
  5. I'm having real problems ..... not withstanding the problems I'm having with my new account ie, the fact that my file url's still won't load up to my web address... a situation that I've gone over in detail with BuffaloHELP. But now I'm having problems logging in to my forum account and trying to send PM's ..... I keep getting "page cannot be displayed".... I only managed to log in just now after trying numerous times..... I've sent OpaQue an email a few days ago and a PM today, just to clarify the problems I'm having.... but I'm now getting a bit frustrated.....could someone try to figure out what's going on..... I'd really appreciate it guys.....
  6. from what I could discern from the news coverage, the prosecutions case seemed pretty weak .... it's difficult to come to a guilty verdict if the evidence isn't strong enough to support it ..... that said, I think the guy's a guilty as sin ..... I can never understand a system that allows people to pay exorbitant amounts of cash to kids who accuse them of molesting them .... and that's legal? another thing that concerns me is this .... let's say there was a man living in your street who admitted to sharing his bed with young boys .... do you think that would be regarded a "normal" behaviour and allowed to continue..... oh, I don't think so .... I would hate to think that in years from now, we find out he's been abusing his own kids.... and those kids are turn round and ask "how come you didn't do a thing to protect us? ..... you all knew what he was like and you did nothing?" it's a sobering thought.....
  7. Ok, so today I've been accepted for hosting account .... "yeah" .... I've gone into file manager and created a homepage file in the "www" directory .... then I tried to upload file URL but I keep getting the error message page, telling me to go to my sites homepage ie, (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/) .... I've read through the post about "domains, settings etc..." but need clarifications because I'm still not sure if I'm doing something wrong or it's just that it's taking a while for my domain name to kick in.... when approving my application , OpaQue said that my domain was already propogated to one of your servers .. (whatever that means). . Please keep your reply simple because as far as web design goes, Im well .... lets just say that so far my site has been created by good luck rather than good management. Do you think things would have been simpler, if I'd just chosen a subdomain name?
  8. Can anyone recommend a quality guestbook that's free .... ad free .... and fully customisable?? Cheerie ... ~M~ x
  9. While it's true most drugs can induce side effects, your ability to cope with them entirely depends of the severity of the symptoms. If they are unbearable then obviously you'll need to see your Doc and review your treatment asap. He's the best person to advise you on whether a drug is appropriate for your condition or not, as he is in possesion of your full medical history. xx ~M~
  10. I come from a long line of assertive women .... right back to my great-great granny.... one of my ancestors was a female pirate.... truly!.... I've never expected not to have the same rights as men.... and I very rarely have found it to be an issue.... occasionally men can be a bit "threatened" and act accordingly, but most guys take you as they find you ..... if they are threatened, that's there problem, not mine.... But I'm not naive enough to believe that sexism isn't alive and well in the 21st Century. However, I'm optimistic that if the current and future generations try to bring up their children to believe that all people are created equal.... no matter their sex, color, creed etc , eventually society will reflect these changes, though it may take some time to achieve this Utopia .....
  11. Hello peeps, many thanx for the welcome ..... see you around the boards .... take care .... ~M~ xx
  12. Life is full of difficult choices. Sometimes, circumstances lead us to do things we never imagined we'd ever have to deal with .... Unfortunately, abortion is one of them ..... no woman wants to have an abortion .... it's dreadfully traumatising and lives with you for the rest of your life ..... but I'm glad that we live in a society, that recognises women need the "choice" of abortion..... the alternative would be to go back a century and have backstreet abortions, would that be preferable?..... women dying of infection, shock etc?..... Oh and please would you leave "God" out of it ......because God isn't the one who has to deal with a rape, or with disability, or with a violent relationship, or single parenting etc ..... so give it a rest ..... women have got enough to cope without relgious guilt adding to their problems... Legalised abortion is an ugly necessity in life..... deal with it ......
  13. I must admit, I've heard some horror stories re-PayPal. However, I've used it for quite some time now and so far haven't had any problems ...... hope I haven't jinxed myself by saying that ..... xx
  14. a word of caution ..... I've used headphones, usually at high volume, since I was knee high to a grasshopper.... consequently, I'm now as deaf as a post ..... watch the sound level folks .... xx
  15. " There will never be another you " - Julie London I was in the mood for something sultry.....
  16. My son is gay...... of course he should be allowed to marry the partner he loves .... he has the same human rights as any heterosexual .... I'm always amused when people bring religion into this debate.... it seems to me that the bible is open to so many "personal" interpretations that it nullifies its relevance in 21st century morality..... xx "Live and let live" has been the anthem to my life ..... and I highly recommend it ......
  17. I was browsing around for another web host, specifically one that didn't have any adverts and I found this site ..... I can't remember the name of the site that recommended you though ..... sorry guys. xx
  18. Hi there, new today..... just finding my way around the site ...... wee bit about me.... female, luv LOTR, chocolate, jazz and life in general ..... OK then ..... catch up with you all later... off now for a mug of tea and a packet of chocolate hobnobs ...... joy !! take care .... ~M~ xx
  19. Manic depression can be difficult to manage for some people, but I know quite a few sufferers who lead full, productive lives...... As for antidepressants, it's trial and error. It's all down to individuals body chemistry.... it may take a while to find the best one that suits you. Which effectively means dealing with a mish mash of side effects.... however, you will eventually find the right one..... it's just a matter of time..... good luck for the future...... take care ..... ~M~ xx
