    Online Relationships

    They can be either, so it's not really helpful to say they are universally good or bad. They can certainly have the potential to turn sour very fast because people can play games so easily - you simply can't see who someone is online so trust has to be given slowly and cautiously. I have a...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Good run today. I didn't get to complete my 15k run for the month, which was one of my challenges, so I did that today. I took a few walk breaks and at one point got into an impromptu race against some kind of harvester in an adjacent field. I was gaining on it until the road turned uphill but...

    When people say the US should not deport illegal immigrants...

    True, and even when people aren't technically homeless it's terrifying how many people are a single life glitch away from it. When people have a monthly budget that's sufficiently finely balanced that a single problem would tip it into the red they have no security at all. If it's all you can do...

    Seeing people say "Prayer won't help"

    In many ways it's not an entirely unreasonable comment. You hear news of a tragedy and the first thing that happens is that everybody and their dog piles on to say "sending thoughts and prayers", as if it somehow turns back the clock and brings back the people who were killed. Of course...

    When people say the US should not deport illegal immigrants...

    What counts as an "average American"? Quite a lot of Americans do lack resources. How many people do you know who struggle to pay their bills? I have a number of friends who have spoken to me for help balancing a budget and sometimes it's brutal trying to figure out what they can do when the...

    Had to turn on the furnace!

    In theory ours would cope, but some areas of the house don't have air ducts so we need to use the oil furnace to heat them. I find the heat pump results in dry air which I really struggle with, so we use it to take the chill off but use oil heat when it gets really cold. We still have part of...

    Had to turn on the furnace!

    Our furnace needs some work and our heating guy is rammed this year. Thankfully we have a heat pump, which is what we usually use if we need to take the chill off in the shoulder seasons.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Some good times, although with a bit of frustration. Trying to figure out just what I need to do in order to get my new daughter's birth certificate updated, dealing with officialdom that can't get their story straight, but after phone calls and emails and two trips to the local courthouse I...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Really good day today. I had a couple of errands to run in town, my new daughter had the day off work so she got the last couple of things updated to reflect her new name, and then my wife and I had lunch with her and just hung out for a while. Now I get to do some more floor sanding. I've got...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    That sounds like it should work as a long term fix. There are times that a quick fix to keep something rolling for another season works but they get tedious. When I'm done using my big saws upstairs I need to take them back to the basement and work on another window. It doesn't need urgent...

    Should I have waited for her?

    In a situation like that it doesn't sound like you left her in a vulnerable position. It's not like you dumped her in an abandoned part of a dodgy area in the dark.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Yick, that doesn't sound good. I replaced one of my basement windows because the frame was badly rotted. I bought some treated wood suitable for prolonged ground contact and built a new frame. Getting the old frame out was interesting, but now I've got a new frame with interchangeable panels -...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Wow, this thread kinda died. My work space in my house is surging forward. I recently had contractors in to hang and finish drywall, one room is painted, the ceiling fan is hung and connected, the power sockets are connected and protected with a GFCI, and the floor is mostly sanded ready for...

    The Proof of The Crucifixion Cross and The Trinity!!!

    Given how many gods there seem to be floating about you'd be forgiven for thinking that polytheists might be onto something. Except each of the gods claims the others are false. It's disappointing that we've only managed to attract three gods so far. I'd have thought a Christian forum would...

    USA Privatizing Health Care & Worsening Health Outcomes

    It's not just insurance. In the UK where the healthcare system is publicly funded it gets progressively worse. I think part of the problem is that healthcare is a market where demand will always outpace supply, and as a result something has to happen to ration the supply. In some places you...

    USA Privatizing Health Care & Worsening Health Outcomes

    True, when healthy competition exists the result is usually improved performance. It's the existence of competition, or the viable threat of a competitor undermining what you've got going, that encourages improvement. The healthcare has so many regulations it's impossible to imagine it ever...

    The Proof of The Crucifixion Cross and The Trinity!!!

    Well, apparently even God gets it wrong sometimes. At least that's based on the assumption that our new friend is actually God. But you know what they say about assumptions... ETA: I never thought that posting on a message board could count as prayer, but apparently I was wrong about that too.

    USA Privatizing Health Care & Worsening Health Outcomes

    It's hardly surprising that any for-profit system will eventually drift towards charging more while offering less. That's how profits are increased.
