Then again, sometimes you just HAVE to wonder about what some people think about and waste their time on! The *some people* link goes to a page about a bunch of haters. Last time I checked, there were links to their individual pages at this site also.

Ever wonder how to tell if you're a god? I think the true test is if people obsess with you, and no matter where you go or what you do, they follow you and just keep on keeping on about you. Take online for instance, I do believe that I've achieved some sort of deific standing resulting from the obsession of half a dozen or so morons that constantly email me, message me, *challenge* me online and offline. I'm just saddened that none of them ever come play with me offline and that none of them are NEAR the computer geniuses they claim to be.

*end rant of morons here, 'nuff air time given to haters...*

Something haters don't understand is that we don't forget, and you can't buy absolution from us. You just have to deal.

Alexis de Tocqueville depicted Americans as a nation of joiners:
As soon as several Americans have conceived a sentiment or an idea that they want to produce before the world, they seek each other out, and when found, they unite. Thenceforth they are no longer isolated individuals, but a power conspicuous from the distance whose actions serve as an example; when it speaks, men listen (Tocqueville, 1955:488, originally published in 1835)

~~UNfortunately that statement seems to be true for good AND ill.
