To a certain extent, I identify with you, xolik. I was still married to my first husband when my now second husband came along. The first relationship seemed to be running its course when #2 came into the picture, but #1 and I still had a strong friendship that kept us from moving on. It was the most difficult decision I have probably ever made in life. I gave up a lot to be with #2, including the friendship with #1, which was very painful. But five and a half years later, it was also the best decision I've ever made. Like the wise folks above, I say go with what's in your heart. Good luck to you.

You're a girl, from what I gathered from the allpoetry page. I don't know what your sexual orientation is, but that's not an issue with me. Which prompts me to clarify that I'm not a pedophile. And it's good to hate your mother. I still h... have issues with mine, and I'm 39.

I was wondering about iWeb, it does look like a nice program. The only thing I was wondering about is whether having a .Mac account was required to use it.

Sweet jesus, I'm old enough to be your mother. Since I have no children of my own, may I adopt you?

I've been called a tomboy, if that counts for anything.
Probably not.

Are you able to comprehend how sad it is that you know this?
Yes. I weep into my glass of Johnny Walker Black every night.

I just don't have that much to say. Now I have something to aspire to.

I'll just reveal my stupidity and ask: how does one access the karma system?

I once had a solid grasp upon the logistics of web publishing. That was, well, TEN YEARS AGO. Literally. Then I took the job I now have, at a newspaper which only got around to having a web site 3 years ago. Needless to say, my knowledge of web site admin is firmly stuck in the Dark Ages. My better half and I have some personal projects we want to expand to cyberspace, and we'd like to improve/expand the web presence of an internet based business. I have most of the peripheral stuff under control, but I could really use some feedback y'all might have in regards to the most crucial piece of the puzzle: web publishing software. We're OSX oriented, and of the two of us, I am the one who handles all the tech support. Ideally, it should be something that is inexpensive, and perhaps managable for someone who is technically challenged, should I not be around to fix it. That's probably asking a lot. I appreciate your input.

Well, to be honest, the other night my hub and I just had to look up what a "dirty sanchez" is (in reference to the Screech pr0n tape). I'll never get that 5 minutes of my life back.

But if you give up you're letting them have their way. Declare yourself a Libertarian and vote them in in the primaries or whatever and then support them to the presidency My problem is I've never been a joiner. I'm skeptical of people who surrender their individuality for the security of being pablum fed some ideology/theology that they never have to question. I also don't particularly care for the whack jobs that pass themselves off as Libertarians in this state. And as for inciting revolt, someone earlier made a comment (which may have been laden with sarcasm), about the police not beating protesters up anymore, I'm assuming post-Vietnam era. I guess you missed the WTO riots in Seattle in 1999.

If people haven't taken the time to register I consider most of them hopeless. Half of them probably have more important things on their mind than politics, I described this in another forum, but recently the Supreme Court determined that the blanket primary in Washington state was unconstitutional -- because it DOESN'T ALLOW THE PARTIES TO PICK THEIR OWN CANDIDATES. Not the voters, the political parties get to choose which candidates they want to get in office. Thus, Washington State voters must now declare they are Dems, Reps, or Libs when they fill out the ballot. We can only vote for candidates of the party we pick. In the first primary since that decision, 20% of the voters in my county had their votes invalidated (in the partisan categories) because they refused (or forgot) to pick a party. I used to vote in every single election. Hell, I was a Jerry Brown delegate at the WA state Dem convention when he ran for president (yes, I was young and idealistic at one time). Now? I'm done with partisan politics. I will only vote in non-partisan elections, like my town's library bond issue coming up next month. The parties got EXACTLY what they wanted -- fewer people making choices for the larger mass of apathetic or skeptical citizens.
