    long live KING OF THREADS...

     

    Baroque classical - Concerto for 2 Oboes and Strings in A minor, AV 2536,

    English Chamber Orchestra...

     

    i know, i know, i'm actually SUPPOSED to be studying - it's on ICEBERGradio.com - 250 stations, one dial - just beautiful... :eek:

    sounds to me like 'permission' was granted - also sounds to me like your 'superior' is a little short in the pants...

     

    think of it this way - when you're eighty, and contemplating beautiful sunsets from your rocking chair, you will look back and be proud for speaking your mind - too many shunt their truth to the back burner in order to maintain the horse-pucky of hierarchy - to one's own soul, it's NEVER worth it...

     

    i have been lambasted for calling a spade a spade, but what would you do? call it a club? yikes...

     

    good luck with the hearing, but in my estimation, you've already won - your own self respect - THREE CHEERS!!! :eek:

    interestingly, my opthamologist and i recently had a pertinent conversation...

     

    apparently, with my glasses (and the fact that i take the time during my examination to get it RIGHT), i have 20/15 vision - something akin to a hawk, though i'm not into rabbit...

     

    that's good enough for me - i know glasses and contacts are a pain, but until someone like McCoy oks' it...

     

    NO WAY would i let a bunch of apes barely twenty thousand years outta the jungle shoot lasers in my eye - i believe Geordi would side w'me... :eek:

     

    all the best with your decision...

    i was walking down the sidewalk, and looked up into the sky to see the sun, glowing like a platinum disk through a hollow in the overcast - tendrils of blue seemed to sift from the clouds, reaching out for the disk - it looked like a star with blue flames - it was really neat ... the cloud thickend up a little, then, and i looked around, realizing i was in the middle of a busy street, and looking like a complete dork...

    i can admit when i'm wrong, EVEN when there've been two wrongs - i've learned to remove myself from worrying whether the other party will ever realize their own error - there's really little i can do about another being...

     

    i can, on the other hand, change myself, and for that , i relish mistakes and learning from them (ya rite, jerk)...

     

    the only time i really hate being wrong is when choice is involved - if i choose a path, and could've/should've chosen another, well, that just sucks...

     

    who is this freak?!? :)

    i voted for equinox - it was a close tie with endgame, but i'm still upset over voyager's swan song - i thought the actual homecoming was a little abrupt...

     

    equinox had a great storyline, great effects, and showed janeway (in a 'threatening' role i happened to see Archer mimicing a couple of episodes ago) at her toughest, and human desperation at its worst...

     

    somebody slap me...
