Just curious...who's been banned so far?
~AAAA
Apparently not AAAAmember!! AA, what about junior high? I didn't see it used in this thread. Sincereheart, "focussed" is spelled either way, one s or two--at least according to my American Heritage offline dictionary(1994). I prefer the double actually--especially, like "fo-cussed", with an EMPHASIS on the "-cussed" part. (just kidding...  ). |

Oklahoma Howdy to Brother Love & Ambassador4Christ, Brothers, hang in there. ADMIN has thinned the troll herd down to a few strays. Maybe it will only be a short time before you will have to really listen to hear their little hooves.  KEEP LOOKING UP! In Christ, Tom Thanks Bro Brother Love  |

Only teachers and children fresh out of school spend so much time focussssssing on spelling and grammar. Especially in a forum or online conversations. (I hate this keyboard the c is intermitently working aarrgh!) The rest of us have real things to worry about. It's also quite funny how english majors have such a hard time finding jobs. Must be because they're so smart.  |

Oklahoma Howdy to Brother Love, Several Oklahoma ranchers are currently thinking about raising trolls and making something useful out of them. They already know trolls can be roped and tamed, but they don't know why they would want a pasture full of them. One rancher said they might be worth their keep if he could teach them how to yodel.  In Christ, Tom |

Oklahoma Howdy to Saved_4ever, Those graphics are cool. I have to get one of those. I prefer your spelling. I think that extra "s" is classy. Reference that problem "c" on your keyboard, don't worry about it. Just pull it out with a pair of pliers and use a letter you like better. In Christ, Tom |

Hmmm...except I'm not an English major - I'm a Zoology major. I just happen to know how to write as well.
More people care about spelling and grammar than you think - those of us who prefer to look intelligent.
But - if y'all slept through elementary school and high school bio, that's fine, too...

Why thank you A 4 and Symphony  , I learned something new . Spell check says one 's' only. Webster says either or.... And why is it that 'focuses' only has one s while 'focussed/focused' and 'focussing/focussing' can be either way?  Ah well..... And why wouldn't anyone on this forum be just fascinated by this?  |

As far as the graphics go, I do believe the new one up there is yours fine sir. Many thanks indeed. I figure the Lycoris link will be good for all those interested. Perhaps start a wave of M$ deffectors. The more support linux has the better the corporate world is in supporting it as well. |

Hehe. A 4! Hey, dats pretty good, sincereheart.  Yes, Saved4, A 4is concerned with "looking" intelligent. Enough said. Yes, sincere, that is curious about "focuses" v. "focussing" or "focussed". Why is it "anoint", but "appoint"?? Hmmmm? Got me. Hehe--spell, spill, spull. LOL. I think English majors can be okay, actually. I think if you know language very well, that can open doors for you. Pert near, leastways. (ahem, no one seems to be answering my original question--ah yes, sincereheart, I mean, um, as believers, should we be concerned about "retirement" anyway--like at age 65 or whatever...) |

Perhaps start a wave of M$ deffectors. The more support linux has the better the corporate world is in supporting it as well. There's something about red, white, and blue that I like. Whenever I think red, white, and blue, I stand at attention, salute, and sing "God Bless America." However, they won't let me sing in public, and it's not because of the song. I sing off-key and am allowed to sing in the shower, only when my wife isn't home. I read some interesting news on one of those sites you gave me. Two entire European governments have opted for Linux. I think that Bill Gates' plan to make everyone buy all new software every 5 years has finally backfired. In Christ, Tom |

Sure why shouldn't we be concerned with retirement? I see it as a chance to finally serve the LORD full time if you couldn't before. Bills still have to get paid so why shouldn't we be concerned about it?
