I wont go into the details, but I've just been threatened with a lawsuit for downloading copyrighted materials and libel. Tha sad thing is they know I'm innocent, but made it clear "I may beat the rap, but wont beat the ride". They also made it clear it's in retaliation for adding facts to someone's biography which might make them look like a liar. That's what I get for researching a cult group's leader TOO...

I played a Flash game today where the music's familiarity flooded into my conscious mind like a slow, great wave. I was back on Vvanderfell. Should I indulge? Satisfying the urge at the expense of RL, but replacing my recent confrontational bantering online with adventure and otherwise peace? Decisions, decisions.

Being on a few forums recently under somewhat hostile circumstances has forced me to deal with a few longstanding issues of mine. Nothing deal-breaking as far as who I am, but these are habits I'm working to break and explore their underlying causes to regain and solidify my inner peace. They are interrelated and a lot of them go to my basic human need for acceptance. (1) I have a need to explain myself. Even...

As a registered member of Wikipedia, I never edited an article until I caught a vandalized entry for "Harry Palmer (Avatar)". At first I just added quotes to an "advertisment" someone added for the course, and then I realized most of the article was rewritten, or more specifically, gone. Someone anonymously (from an IP address in Hawaii) got rid of any "negative" links and references, including the whole section of...

My daughter and I were mentioned in the March 2007 issue of Better Homes & Gardens. Except they got everything all wrong. They took information from the Dads & Daughter's discussion group and contacted me. I let them use my name and quote me, even proofread the mention. Except they didn't quote me. In fact, what I proofread was hardly the same as what was published. I corrected the spelling of my daughter's...

I got a book in the mail from St. Martin's Press, since I was a contributor to the book. Totally Wired by Anastasia Goodstein. The thing is I have no idea what I contributed or if they even mentioned me by name. So I went to do a search ... wait ... where is the serach feature? How does paper work again? It's too new to be googlable. My brain just froze. I'm thinking, apart from nostalgia and habit, why would...

I Survived Lot 2111 We ate most of the jar we had of the lot recalled due to salmonella concerns. No one got sick. Someone give me a T-Shirt. Fussy Smoke Detector Our smoke detector must have been on union break the other day when we had a small stovetop fire -- tons of smoke and it never went off. Must have been saving itself for those regular, more theatening occassions, like when we make toast. You're Fired!...
