Yes it is. These are all ways I used to help fix my issue. If you don't see nfs.exe in your task manager, the game isn't running.

Yet another reason I have opted to not want kids. One Gizmokid2005 is more than enough...

I, too, never want kids. Some of my reasons are the same as the ones you listed. I knew when I was four years old that I would never have or want kids. I'm now spayed, just to be sure. I'm also saving the world from another one of me, well half me, wandering around.

OMFSM! Thank you for this! I actually could not stop myself from laughing out loud.

You don't need to justify yourself to anyone. ;)

I didn't have much of an issue with the battery life, I found that Skype drained it quick, but it wasn't what the N8's life was.

Like you I reviewed the E7 after having used the N8 for 2 weeks, and was similarly unimpressed with the E7. EDoF camera on a high-end phone, no microSD slot, rather poor battery life, software instability made me put it back in its box after a week despite the awesome display, keyboard and sliding form-factor which never failed to impress those I showed the device to.

Yeah, it's hard to pin down exactly what it was missing too. It was more of just a general lack of "something"...

After I used it for a few months I felt the same way about the E7. It had so much potential, but lacking a lot.

Hows the drama been since Nathan dumped Vanessa? Ha ha ha ha!!! Wow it's been quiet! Love all of you kids and I'm glad Dakota and Dad are over their every 2 year bad accidents... and I'm glad this family has found peace in NOT getting hurt! It's been nice!! And I LOVE the drama free part that has come since Jenn and Vanessa have been gone!

Dont let the actions or inactions of others take away the wonderful oppertunity it is to be a parent. Having children is not right for everyone , but your reasoning for not wanting to seems based upon what others do with their kids.
Having a child has uniquely made me aware of my actions and attitude and in an effort to raise a productive member of society, it has caused me to evaluate myself as well.
All I am saying, is never say never, because the joy and experiences of raising a human being are immersurable and not understood without having walked the path.
If by some grace you do find yourself a parent at some point in your life, know that you have the oppertunity to be different and raise your child how you see fit, and honestly, you may find it to be the best thing you've ever done.
I certainly have.

I want to add to your comments above. Jason truly would take the shirt off his back for anyone, any day of the year. I had the pleasure of working in the same building with him for over a year and always enjoyed his upbeat spirit everyday at lunch. He is a positive person even when he is having a bad day. I will definitely be helping to make this an amazing Christmas for his family!

Set up a paypal donate link, and I'll try to send some along. There's a lot of people this happens to. It sad that some bosses so this to people. I remember that back when someone else owned the store I work at, this happened almost monthly in an attempt to get someone to quit. Its a low and unfair move, often done by people crazed with power and taking something as a personal insult (even something as simple as being happy when the boss isn't.) People in general suck, and I refuse to be a person in general. I'll try to donate some towards this too. And repost the link on twitter and Facebook in order to get the word out.

Good post. I plan on adopting, and actually caring for my kid. I've worked in child care, and I've seen what kids go through. Not to mention other things I won't go in to on a public comment (has to do with parents not even caring that they are making their kids walk 10 miles on busy roads.) It makes me sick, because those kids are growing up to be just like them...but I digress, I care for people, and I'd care for my kids. I've seen the worst of the worst (you work at a grocery store and you see far worse than parents that give their kids everything.) I may not have kids, but I have decided to at least adopt.

I planned on complaining, that's how this got started. As for their information...well, they're a public company so it's already out there to a point...And the COO is the boss, he's pretty much the CEO...

Complain. You have the right to defend your personal information, and they have no right to give it out freely. It's your information. I say take it to the bosses. Small claims court, even. Or, go the revenge route, get their information, and publish it online after you notify them that you are doing so. :)

You can always contact the EFF. They'll know what to do. Cheaper than lawyers too.
(I couldn't hear the voicemail for some reason, do you have a transcript?)

I mean you could threaten to move out but I'm not sure if that is an option for you right now :/ I dunno what kind of action you could take legally either....

id say if you still dont want them sending your information to people, reguardless of who it is, send cease and desist :)

Trust me. I'm working on a dislike button. When I have one, Michael will be the first to add it to his site to. :P

Beth Briggs — Thu, 06 May 2010 15:06:29 -0000

You need a like and dislike button so I can just like this!
