    Rugby Union

    I don't follow League so much, except internationals. I hate to admit it, but I do enjoy it more now that the gap has closed and we're beating Aussie more often. The shock WC win by the Kiwis, then the latest 4-Nations final were both really exciting games. Union is still by far the bigger...

    I'm so sick of this life...

    May I make an observation? Circa02, I looked at your most recent posts. The thread headings suggest topics such as Pentagon employees purchasing pornography, fish and bird kills in Arkansas, republicans, Israel keeping the Gaza on the brink of economic collapse, beliefs about Islam, 9/11...

    Kelley, I stumbled on a "Suggest New Forums" section and I mentioned the theme of your request on there. So we shall wait and see.

    Computer/technology addiction

    I can't post links yet, but within the new member intros section there is a user expressing a specific need to do with this addiction. I would think that within many families various forms of such addiction, not to speak of the dangers of inappropriate use of the internet, is becoming a...

    Newbie seeking which way to go...

    Kelley, I am relatively new here and am not sure how one goes about initiating a new forum within this site, but my suspicion is that the general problem that you are highlighting is far from unique. It may be that you could be instrumental in starting a new area of discussion. You have...

    Newbie seeking which way to go...

    There is an irony about joining a web forum in a search for help for computer addiction that made me smile. I say that very kindly, I know how it is. And welcome.

    Rugby Union

    Anyone here follow the game? A big year with the World Cup, arguably the third biggest spoting event on the planet. Three of the games are a few hundred yards down the road from where I live, two of them the good old USA who will be based here.

    Failed horribly at first fasting attempt

    This will sound ridiculous, but is true. My wife still, at least a decade later, will not let me forget the time that I decided to fast for a day (and pray etc) on account of her poor health at the time. At some point she walked into the lounge and glared at me, and I kind of stared back...

    Your future spouse's sex past

    Not advice really, I'm sure others on these forums, perhaps in pastoral ministries, are better qualified. It's interesting thinking about this answer because it could easily become millions of words. Sexual temptation could be thought of within so many contexts. If you took one extreme, say...

    Your future spouse's sex past

    Hiya. Firstly I hope it is OK for me to post here as I'm not a young adult. Also my question is not to challenge your view as I respect it, but something I have been pondering. You mention waiting for "the one", and I'm curious what would happen if you met what appeared to be "the one" but...

    First Computer You've Owned?

    The first one I owned was an XT (the predecessors to the AT) in maybe 1986. I think they were something like 4.77 kHz, no hard drive just 5 1/4" floppies. Can't even remember the memory, maybe 256kB. But the first time I tried programming was one afternoon in 1984 when a friend brought...

    Cloud Computing

    I played around with the Azure platform for a bit while it was still in CTP phase. I could immediately see certain very specific uses for which it would be immediately suitable, and when I looked at blurbs about apps that were live from day one, many tended to reinforce my own thoughts. In...

    Hello, I need your thoughts(a look into my life)

    Hmmm, there is a whole lot I'd like to get chatting about concerning your original post and this one. As it happens it is late afternoon New Years eve and I have out of town visitors arriving soon so I am madly cleaning the house up. But I'm very interested in this discussion. Tonight I'll...
