  1. No, I don't smoke, perhaps because I'm too uncoordinated to smoke and do anything else at the same time. :rolleyes: Plus, the smell of cigarette smoke actually makes me physically ill. I tend to view it as a physical and psychological addiction, which affects different people to varying degrees. Some people can take it or leave it, others have to make some effort if they want to go without it, and still others feel that they can't live without it. For example, one of my friends has tried just about everything to quit, including medications, and has finally given up, saying that he just can't stop. Another has smoked one cigarette a day for years, and says she has little difficulty going without smoking for long periods of time. A third was able to quit with the aid of some help and support and a few techniques.
  2. Excuse me, but I did not. The question was what to do with the topics, and I did not give an opinion on that question.
  3. I'm afraid I don't know what BorisP refers to; so, I can't comment.
  4. Who are you calling old? ;) Huh? :thinking: I know of fans as young as four years old, and at least one as young as sixteen, who hangs out on my favourite Who forum: tombaker.tv/forum quite frequently. :) And, there are many others on that forum in their early to mid-twenties. For those of us who love it, it's cross-generational. That's one of the things I like about it. :D
  5. Yes. Beautiful day here, and I spent it mostly inside, working on the computer, trying to get just one torrent client to work properly. Tonight I'm working, too. I must be nuts. :rolleyes:
  6. *SIGH.* So much to learn, so little time. :rolleyes:
  7. This is true. It can also ruin your relationships and your life. A similar problem runs in my family. For a long time I didn't care about getting angry, because I figured the people I was angry with deserved it. This may have been true, but one day I realized that my anger was killing me. When that happened I went to the library, and it turned out they had some really good books on anger management, which were very helpful to me. I also meditate daily, and find that this helps me to release my anger without dumping it on other people. One day, when I was meditating, I discovered that it is possible to feel anger without suppressing it or losing one's temper. This was a tremendous revelation to me at the time, because I always thought you had to express it somehow. What I found instead was that if I felt my anger, but did nothing about it, after a while the anger changed into positive energy. Sometimes anger is merely misdirected energy, or a warning that something is bothering you and you need to figure out what it is and what to do about it. End of speech. :rolleyes:
  8. It's usually one of the luckiest days of the year for me, which means that, unfortunately, the rest of the year sucks, except for Halloween of course. ;)
  9. I guess I'm late to this party. I've got a batch of degrees, and I'm not done yet. The closest ones to science would be a B. Environmental Studies and a B.Sc., with pre-med., though I actually majored in Psych. I've always been interested in science, medicine, psychology, and just about every other subject on and off the planet. In fact, I'm still not sure what I'm doing, and probably never will be. :rolleyes:
  10. Wasn't meant to be. Otherwise they might have called it Star Trek SG1. c4 :p Perish the thought. ;)
  11. Yes, and I suppose, it'll just keep getting moved, like a floating dice game. :rolleyes:
  12. I just like to get away from it all, now and then. B) I also like writing scifi/fantasy, from time to time, and keeping up with what's on and what's being written by others gives me fresh ideas. :cyclops:
  13. Me too. :D Honestly, though, I am on so many WHO forums now, I've barely been in here until now. :rolleyes:
  14. I picked the final choice, "forever," because, since I have dial-up, that's about how long it will take. :rolleyes:
