I am not an IT person per se but I do a hellaceous amount of typing and I cannot stand brand new cheaply made keyboards that are now on the market. I prefer the old IBM clicky clack keyboards. I take my old IBM keyboard whereever I work since I can type up a storm on it; something I really have a hard time doing with newer keyboards. However the oldest better quality keyboards IBM use to make in the early and mid 80s are hard to find and many people to care to have them and they just discard them. If any of you guys have any you would like to get rid of, please let me know. I will buy them at a reasonable cost and pay S&H :-)

So Far away
It's Too Late
Will you Love me Tomorrow
You Got a Friend
Autumn Leaves
Unchained Melody
The fact that these songs have been remade over and over shows that these classics are timeless

Great photos Scub; I haven't been anywhere in Europe since I was a kid; too poor to travel now and even if I could afford it I couldn't have the time off. I miss traveling.

Try this...it pegged me perfectly
by wanderlustguy inmood analysis test results
you have always been on the move seeking affectionate, satisfying and harmonious relationships.
your ultimate goal has been the realization of an intimate union in which there could be love, self-sacrifice and mutual trust.

How do they do that???????
You are a very sensitive person and you try hard (perhaps a little too hard) to make favorable impressions and to be recognized by your peers. But you have that inherent need to feel appreciated and admired and you are easily hurt if all of your endeavors go by unappreciated or not acknowledged. Stop trying so hard.
For some time now you have been feeling rather insecure. You are looking for - and needing - an environment that can offer you roots, stability and a position that will relieve you of excess tension and stress.
Loneliness is soul destroying and at this time you feel lost and lonely, perhaps it is because you feel so frustrated that you are prepared to go out of your way to become emotionally involved with someone who could accept you for what you are. You are egocentric, antagonistic and quick to take offense, although it must be said, you can control your pent-up up emotion and thus avoid open conflict.
You are feeling trapped by the situation as it stands at this time and what is more, you feel powerless to remedy it. You are stressful, angry and disgruntled. You feel that everything that you try to do to change the situation is thwarted and your hopes and aspirations all seem to be receding into the ever distant future. You have reached the state where you now doubt whether your dreams will ever be achieved and this is not only causing mental stress but heartache. You need to get away from it all - you need to have time to think, to recuperate, to be able to make your own decisions.
You are trying to build up your own position and you resist all external influences. You insist that you are your own person and you will not tolerate any outside interference. Decisive and proud, you are true managerial material.

Relationship??
by penton inafter meeting a wonderful fella who also is jw.
i've never felt this way about anyone before in my life.
the only thing is i don't know if its possible for us to have a stable relationship, as i am r.c, not actually i'm irish roman catholic which is a little bit "stricter".

It may not matter to you but if you even think you may marry this guy; you will have to be a baptized JW to get married in their congregation. He, as a JW, WILL NOT be allowed to get married in a catholic church, so you guys will have to get married in a civil ceremony unless one of you guys cave in and leave your religion.

"No, you won't! There are enough of us motherly types to make sure you eat right after you move down here!"
Nina you almost make me want to move down there to Dallas.
Ohiocowboy: I would love to attend that but I have a friend visiting from Denmark and he only visits once in a blue moon since he lives in europe and he should be here around that time. But maybe next year. If you are driving down south and happen to pass through Little Rock, let me know. We can have coffee :)
