Just trying to find out who here on JU has any problems with me, whether through my actions, my posts,etc... Also, How does every one view me, both in reference to my postings,comments,etc... and in reference to my actions.... I just want to see if there is any way i can fix the rifts...

If you could meet and talk with one famous man or woman who is now dead, whom would you choose and what would you discuss, why? I would like to talk with Alexander of Macedonia, he is by far (IMO) the most brilliant general/military leader of history…his empire stretched from Greece to the Indus river, and down into Mesopotamia and Egypt…..with an army of 40,000 he defeated a larger Persian army, eventually bringing the end of the Persian Empire. I would as him about his life in gene...

If you could live in a time, and/or place other than your own, what time and place would you choose? Why? I would choose Ancient Egypt around the time of its dawn. I would choose it because I have always had a fascination with the culture, people and architecture. Such marvels as the Sphinx, Pyramid of Cheops/Khufu, and the stepped pyramids in southern Egypt are wonders that have yet to have been fully explained in how they were built. The fact that they have lasted for thousands of y...

Ok, well, I am trying to install Ikonboard, version 2.1.9a, and I don't know where to find the following (and any and all extra info is appreciated): Where are the files on your server? The following settings are our best guess only. Please double check all your settings and if you are in any doubt, ask your web host. If you are on an NT server, please use double backslashes!

Well, been thinking lately... At the moment there is a bit of a problem within my family going on. There's a wedge spliting the various 'factions'/ There is my aunt, uncle and cousins, Thats one group. There's me, my mom, my sister, brother, sis-in-law, and nieces. Thats another. It used to be it was just my aunts family, my mom's family. Now, recently, my brother never came to my sisters birthday in july (well, it wasn't that recent), never called, got her a present. Now my sister is bummed...

Stress makes people do/say things they don’t mean, and at times inhibits their thinking/reasoning process. That’s what was happening to me when I was trying to defend my self. (or as others put it; Whining, mewling, and feet stamping.) I was just so stressed at the time that I reacted, and never thought; then replied. Putting more thought into my replies and what was said in other replies. I wasn’t thinking clearly and said things that were not needed. The profanity just came out; as if It f...

I don't mind LW and others doing it once to get an article on the forums... but what I do find aggrivating is people like Lucas Bailey who bump an article to get it on the forums, then when it generates zero responses he bumps it again a few days later....I've seen him do that a few times. It's as if they can't stand having no responses to an article, they can't handle being ignored so they have to bump and bump and bump. THAT drives me nuts. --Now, the reason i have bumped certain artic...

Insults, considered by some to be a last resort of a desperate blogger. One who has nothing to back his claim up, and needs something to 'stay alive'. Now, I have read interesting articles here at JU and have seen debates riddled with insults: Looney luddite left, redneck, A$$H#!(, F@#$ Y^&!, and many others... These sort of comments deviate the article/debate from its originial intent, and IMO are unneeded. If you can't back your claim up; then concede. Apparently there are those here who do...

As a Dungeons and Dragons Role Player for eight years, and knowing others who have been at it from 20+ years, i've come to enjoy funny and resourceful stories from other "gamers"..., all of those who role play D&D, come share your stories of various escapades... --lucas (a.k.a Elindel)

In the Presence of Mine Enemies © 2003 Harry Turtledove Published by New American Library Copyright 2003 This book isn’t very intense. In my opinion it is delivered blandly. Any action is dulled. I mean; living your life always on watch; always afraid of those around you. That is something that should be very intense. With yourself being born something that is hated throughout the world. It adds new meaning to being paranoid. Turtledove does a good job with laying the backgrou...

No, america did not deserve to be attacked. Those innocent human beings did not deserve to be murdered. Those who flew those planes are not martyrs, they were not heroes. They were murderers; those who died in the attacks are the Heroes, those who helped are the heroes. (police, firefighters, etc...) Check this link: Link: Link
