For some of us we've come here from formats which are somewhat closer to blogs-and I am personally more used to a teaching setting. It's somewhat in the nature of my vocation. And mylot appears to be geared more toward...

GoodSamaritan Yea this site seems to be more geared towards interaction, especially with the features of personal messaging feature that does not exist in the other formats. I just like it because it remembers my user name, unlike other websites. It is also cool that they...

Watching the news tonight, this is the feeling I am getting...that while our current government hasn't been really great at keeping the books, they have been really great at creating new taxes for dealing with it. Or rather,...

If, by mistake, it already happened to you, to added a teaspoon of salt in your coffee, you are surely replying, never again in my life. I know how bad the salted coffee tastes, as it happened to me. Now, we are not talking...

GoodSamaritan Well it can't be that bad when stores like starbucks add a touch of salt to some of their drinks. I myself have tried it and never gained an admiration to it. Maybe I will one day visit again however, I don't really mind the bitterness of coffee.

Most often than sometimes, I hear people say that knowledge is power. With knowledge, you can do great things. Such mindset is total baloney. I don't judge people who say that and I respect what they believe but we actually need...

GoodSamaritan I guess the people who made that statement were 'assuming' that we would act on such knowledge. That was a good point you made and it reminds me of a similar point that I ponder all the time. The one that say's 'faith w/o works is dead' The faith of an...

We are facing crisis! The most alarming thing about the statement above isn't the word 'crisis', it's the word 'we'. Because it takes responsibility from one and rests it on the shoulder of everybody. Those two letters are enough...

GoodSamaritan It's just hard to know were to start. I know on my level I try and make sure I recycle properly, and turn off lights but besides that there is not much I can think of. I suppose I could join some campaign's that fight for the environment. We are just a...

Well I am either learning how to control my sound or I am going deaf. Either way the music isn't ringing in my ear after band practice tonight. We have come along way and I am proud of my band but I don't think we will have a...

GoodSamaritan That is crappy luck. Lyrics are one of the most difficult things to do and to have someone take something like that is awfully undignified

Sometimes they are annoying, and sometimes they are a good thing. As I get older, I tend to see them more and more as good things-both in terms of myself and stress, and in terms of helping others with stress. The truth is that...

GoodSamaritan It would be nice to see the end of certain things. But sometimes just realizing that something's can't be dealt with in the short term helps to take the considerable burden off the shoulders.

Because I'm more or less busy with home life right now, I've had to cut back re. certain things with work. But I still do take a lot of theological and linguistic questions from people. Sometimes I can be helpful, but sometimes...

GoodSamaritan I think you know a great deal and to admit that you don't know it all and could be wrong is very humbling and a great attribute you possess.

GoodSamaritan Well I find to play soft is boring and for me defeats the purpose of music in the first place. It is suppose to be fun and that is why the style of music we play is unique as well the way in which we play it.
