Reason for leaving Facebook? (if one needs one!)

I loved this video. See the other projects on that page. And see some new entries! thefuntheory.com/?q=entries

There's a competition for awards for similar fun projects -- open until December 15: thefuntheory.com/?q=rolighetsstipendiet

If I got something like this I'd be so disappointed that I didn't have the $200 to spare....

oooh, I want this on my website.... but where to put it????

edit: It also seems to me that National Person's Day should really be called "National Women's Day". This is not to be construed as a criticism of the major feat of the Famous Five and their colleagues who worked diligently to ensure that women would be heard equally by getting to vote, w...

Ha! I did not know that there was such a day as "Person's Day"! Apparently National Person's Day has been celebrated since 1929!! Remind me to pay attention on 18 October.... Interestingly, I just saw a new news service of IPS devoted to stories about women. Genderwire: http://ipsnews.net...

I like the forum. I can say things here that I can't say on facebook. I haven't visited as much lately, though.

I like html mail.

I have often suspected that the people sending the spam out don't make a dime (and perhaps lose money). The people selling smam lists or services make the money. similar to a pyramid scheme where the money is not make selling the products but on selling sales schemes. And no one is likely to expose ...

Because I'm worried that K9, my email spam guard, might throw things out that shouldn't be thrown out, I check some of the emails that might be legitimate. And I just found the following important message from Mrs. Ella Robin that K9 has given a spam score of 88%! :stomp: Yikes. Good thing I checke...

...can you get one with a printer too? :lalala: I want one with a printer! I wish that everyone in Toronto would jump on that band wagon. I'm still amazed at the number of phones I hear "ringing" (playing those infernal midi songs) at concerts and on the subway. Well, people do seem to ne...
