Every time I click on an article in the forums to read, I get an error message that says 'object refernce not set to the instance of an object' (or something like that). Am I the only person having this issue?   

I know that you read my blog.  Yeah you....you know who you are.  I know that you read because your reading what I write here is what kicked this all off. You say that your feelings are hurt because I wrote about you. Did you ever stop to think that your actions hurt MY feelings, and that was why I wrote about them?  Do you not see that this blog is like my journal; that I vent here?   Do you not understand that I don't say anything here that I wouldn't say to yo...

(Audrey Niffenegger, 'The Time traveller's Wife') 'Nuff said, I think.....

"In Germany they came first for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." (Martin Niemoller) His words were relevant then, and they are relevant ...
