lvaldean Very serious thoughts for what was always intended as light fun. I suppose you would have to go back a year to see what prompted this posting. You didn't offend by the way.

So after not being able to post anything all day yesterday I logged in to helium around 11 or 12 last night and submitted my latest two articles. When I went to the earnings page to see how the rest were doing I discovered the new...

lvaldean Stewarding for about a year now. You can connect to my Helium "about me" page directly from my profile page here on myLot. Have been fairly inactive writing for the past few months as I try to take care of a family member and get my business off the ground....

Now that I have three writing stars I am excited to be able to earn more in helium upfront payments in addition to the empty title bonuses. Recently I have been using empty titles to help maintain my writing score and I check my...

lvaldean Hmmm, I never use the title finder at all since I tend to write to only certain channels and recently have some easier tools to use as well. I suspect the problem is an updating problem but it is one that should be brought up to our admin staff, I will do so...

Not going into the gory details, but a few are necessary. Sure would like to know what others think of this situation. I had, HAD being the operative word, a friend who was frequently needy. I think that she didn't always...

lvaldean I know all this. Unfortunately illness, pain, fear of dying, lack of income, and a really crappy family all do really terrible things to our inner person. She had all of these things and in spades. So my sympathy and concern for her overrode my good sense.

lvaldean Yes I do believe it. I am a Helium Steward (Jobs & Careers) thus my response. One of the things that is helpful about the Helium Zones and Forums is that others on Helium will benefit from both your question and the response of the Admins or the Stewards, or...

In our modern society, crime is a growing complication and in some countries, the highest crime punishment is the death penalty. In my country, Australia, the highest punishment is a life time in jail. I am wondering if the death...

lvaldean Just curious. If they feel no remorse for their crimes what makes you believe that a life sentence will somehow change this? What assurance that a unrepentant murderer will remain in prison for life? What is the basis of your statement that the...

Yes, it is true. Barrack 0bama has an interesting personality which should have been examined more closely before being elected to high office. That personality, and the way it was formed, could be strongly affecting 0bama's...

lvaldean Why is he likely flawed as a human being? Because he didn't have the same upbringing as you? Because his experiences weren't consistent with what the average American would consider normal? Well neither were mine. In fact mine were more...

lvaldean To both of you....I try to ignore tripe wrapped up as news reporting. This was tripe packaged as "news" and it was armchair psychobabble to boot. There are many people in the world who have had not so nice things happen in their childhoods. They turned out...

lvaldean Dang it. Well anyone can do the same thing I did which is go to the www.Senate.gov Then type in HR1 or H.R.1 which will bring up the real version that has been submitted and passed. That is what I did. I believe in going to the source. It really...

Yes, it is true. The cristicism of liberals at the provided link is fairly harsh. The linked article implies liberals are emotionally driven without giving thought to the interactive complex nature of human behavior. Thus,...

lvaldean Destiny try using logic rather than emotion. Banking is only one part of the problem. The mortgage issues are only one part of the problem, one by the way I don't disagree with you on. The real problem though starts when any country loses their ability...

lvaldean Interesting that you and I don't disagree on the essentials but disagree where it started - that would be with the "great communicator", that is right Ronald Reagan. He was a Republican, right? He was also the one that put us in the position of big business...
