Yeah! Give this friendly man, Mark Sattler a thought, would you! Anyway, most people are up at 7 AM in the morning, eating breakfast, saying or maybe even kissing his or her some 8 week younger / older wife / husband goodbye and saying be careful to the 1 or 2 children they send away for school at 7.30 AM. Anyway, checking in at the work place just before 8 AM. Eating lunch for half an hour somewhere between 11.30 AM and 12.30 PM. Finishing up the workday at 4.30 or 5 PM and eating dinner having this finished up before 6 PM. One and a half hour or so of rest before checking the television news. In bed just before 11 PM, ready for another day's work. No reason therefore to end up in a bar fighting at 2.30 AM Saturday morning if you happen to be a brave man. Three things stand out when it comes to having a clean conscience. First: Being effective in what you are doing in your life and / or business. Second: Trying to obtain as best as possible profitability in what you are doing (not necessarily the same as a having a "profit motive" which could mean greed). Third: Being aware of the principles regarding investment (if you need investment capital, please go to your bank asking for this). And finally, give your husband / wife as well as children a thought while you are asleep and dreaming. Anyway, as we all know, Mark is working on it. Quit smoking! |

Well folks, you're officially still on the hook. I've managed not to buy another pack yet, although I came very close tonight when heading back home from work. The cravings are still stupidly compulsive. I mean, having a running conversation with one's self for half an hour trying to justify forking over $1000.00 to Seti so I could cave in and buy a pack. Sheesh. So, one day at a time. As the saying goes, nothing is impossible for those who don't actually have to do it......LOL. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

That's your brain lying to you. It's hard not to listen to a lie you tell yourself. Tell it it's a damned liar. I'm starting to save-up to pay-off the bet. |

Thanks for your faith in me....that helps a lot. Close only counts in horseshoes and heavy artillery. You didn't cave - a small victory. Small victories add up to large ones.

Maybe it is just all about starting up another thread... Aren't we supposed to be doing all this stuff for a good cause in mind? Please help Seti@home by donating a couple of spare cycles, will you. Thanks! |

Mark just likes taking these vacations it seems around this time of year. ;) And he'd been so good lately too. He was close to breaking his record for "time on" :-) T.A. |

"banished: ID 421968" That can't be good. It's what happens when a user is "Banished" for a breach of the posting rules. All their posts are hidden till they have served out their time. T.A. |
