  Okay, when i need advice, I usually come to this place because everyone is able to help in one way shape or form. Here's the thing: The outside family room computer that's hooked up to the internet through an ethernet cable modem is a Dell P/C. Now MY computer is an APPLE computer...G5. It is not connected to the internet. I know it has an ethernet slot inthe back, but because i'm veyr new to apple, i don't know how to work around it. I can do PC like a crackhead knowing where to find crack but the apple, i'm new to it. I want to get wireless onto the apple computer from the family p.c. ...now i bought a router, but here's the problem. I know i need something in the apple computer to pick up the reciever. My questions are: How do i Know if the Apple g5 has a wireless connection already built in?

  2)Do Apple g5's already have wireless built in? If so How can i step by step locate that ...because on a pc. i click start go to control panel and TADOW! but on an apple, i'm like 'uh...find...uh...documents...no...library...no...where the hell is the control pannel?!?!?!' So i don't relaly know how to work around it. I bought the apple particularly because of the music composition, but seeing how the internet is becoming an issue here, i would prefer to have it on my g5.

  3) My apple does have an Ethernet in the back, but the outside computer is setup to the modem. Now, I just bought a router BUT ...will i have to connect all ethernets togetheror something through the router? I just need to figure out how to do this correctly. Can anyone help?

  Hope4Others, i sent you a personal message, i hope you recieved it.

  restrangled: in the dream i was indeed affraid, after I won I became the fear in which i was affraid of. i have been out of th eorganization of Jehovahs Witnesses for many year snow. 7-8 years? i can't recall. i do not feel this has anything to do with that, ive been confirmations on my current beliefs to diminish any possibility of dreams comin gback to talk about that. Infact, i have an extreme distaste for religion itself, not just Jws.

  Cameo-d: Thanks for your comment, but i feel as though there's a warning. no i do not read Wt literature anymore it's been many years. i do not feel like i'm 'safe' because becoming death itself is a sign of danger somewhere to me. it just feels that way.

  Confucious: I thank you as well for your input and observation. i do not however believe that this has anything to do with my desires for fantasy and so forth. i do not read many fantasy books. however, I do believe in dragons nad so forth. But there were none in my dream. I do believe in Death represented as an actual entity just as Christ is an entity (last enemy Death will be brought to nothing, ...'swollowed up by God' ) etc.. this is why this dream to me is so concerning. I wish to know the meaning, because deep down inside, i feel/know there is one. It isn't a reoccuring dream. but i don't have reoccuring dreams. i have dreams about people and ...giant donuts chasing me (not exactly) but...this was too...spiritual in nature. Any other advice?

  I had this dream but it's taking me some time to understand it. Quite frankly, it's bothering me bcause It just feels like it has some sort of meaning.

  The Dream:

  i was in a house with furniture and it had a rectangular shape to it. There was an old man that was there with me, he looked like a homeless man but he wasn't homeless. Death was riding a horse on the outside of the house. It looked EXACTLY like one of the wraiths from Lord of the Rings, Except the horse was paler (like in the book of revelation). I was terrified, because he kept calling my name. But my name that I have was not the name in the dream. In the dream he hissed/whispered the name "Evergreen." I also had a last name that he kept calling me BUT I can't remember it now. I was on the floor of the house and i kept trying to hide from Death, behind furniture and so forth. The old man was also on the floor but he wasn't really hiding. He was very compassionate and loving in personality. Death passed by the long side of the house with his horses hoofs making noise and the sound of metal clanking (like armor or something). then he would go to the short end of the house and make an " L " path on one side of the house. All the while, he's calling me Evergreen. The old man looks at me and says 'your going to have to face and fight him' and I begin to freak out. I decide to remain hidden, but all of a sudden I found myself transported to the outside of the house facing Death on his horse, about 8 feet apart. There was this HUGE sword that was in my hand at this point. It reminded me of the Final fantasy swords but anyhoo. I began fighting Death and realized it was REALLY easy to fight. I hit him about 2-3 times and he disappeared and I won. But no sooner then I had won, I looked and I was riding a pale horse and had become Death. And then, I woke up.

  I'm really stumped here.

  lol you guys are funny. There is one thing I must say though, I encourage all the clease themselves and partake. John 6: 51, 53-54 "I am the living bread that came down from heaven; if ANYONE eats of this bread he will live forever; and, for a fact, the bread that I shall give is my flesh in behalf of the life of the world. Therefore the jews began contending with one another saying "How can this man give us his flest to eat?' Most truely I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood you have no life in yourselves. He that feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life, and I shall resurrect him at the last day."

  Who is he talking to? He is speaking to the Jews. Not the 144000. He was telling THEM 'Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood you have no life in yourselves'

  Many of us come from the mind set that in order to partake we must be part of the 144,000 as the Watchtower and Bible Tract Society has taught us. But ALL are invited, few chosen. Remember ANYONE may eat his flesh and drink his blood and UNLESS you eat his flesh and drink his blood you have no life in yourselves. I have posed this question to many Jehovah's Witnesses: How can you live forever on a paradise earth if you have no life in yourselves because you do not eat his flesh and drink his blood?' Come eat and drink, for the King has prepared a great feast.

However, you find minor stuff every now and then that people will display a genuine talent. What do YOU consider to be talent?

  Out of all the notes though I must confess there is only ONE note that strikes me above all else (although the entire song is fantastic) and it occurs at 6 mins and 22 seconds ... I mean the total song itself is amazing but at that one moment is like...climactic bliss. auh! pure genius. The forte and the 'piano' is beautifuly put together.

  I almost died when I first heard Cecilia's voice through that. The amount of emotion captured in the voice and the soaring voice over accompaniment. I'm telling you, I almost died. Made me wanna cry =*( I can't remember if i actually did or not. It really captures the intesnse emotion, OH and the soft to hard falsetto! I'm telling you, it was like connecting with the muse. The use of half cadences' on the piano is really good too. There is a moment in the song ...I am not fully aware of the terminology of the piece of it but it's from 3 mins 47 seconds on the video to 4 mins 12 seconds. I ...just can't explain what that piece does to me. She does it again around Five mins...with slight variation and has the full dramatic effect. That piece of song may not be amazng pertaining to notes and the tonality and interval relationship of the notes but...the voice just gets me. I just can't...*sigh*

  And that's just the classical, and opera with one modern performance! Share your music! And tell us why it captivates you! I'm curious.

  Thank you for the informative comments. I was hoping a little more on their specific beliefs and the contradictory factors. The video definately helped. It is true that I don't need to go along because my client is a mormon. I totally agree. I just don't want this dinner to turn ugly! At which point I want inform them that as a last resort. I don't in anyway want to turn this into a heated debate, but in the same aspect I'm not going to get my 'will broken' I don't know what is going to happen, although I feel it's the bad version than the good. Well see. No exmormons here? =( thats okay
