� � � � I guess the word of the day will be "communication." This is purely for personal, selfish reasons, and...well, I don't know that it needs any other rationalization than that.
I'll be quite frank; I despise not knowing what's going on if it concerns me. And when the matter doesn't concern me, I still am awfully curious to know what it is. After all, information is mightier than the missile, is it not? This being so, it only makes sense that communication is crucial to any human relationship, and even some non-human ones as well. Why? I'm glad you asked. It's important because the best way to have arguments and misunderstandings is not to communicate. It's quite simple, you see.
� � � � It's even more important the more issues, hurts, and complications exist in the relationship. If there is jealousy, mistrust, secrets of any sort, or even a history of misunderstandings, then obviously, communication is an even more necessary part of a healthy relationship
� � � � I'm sure you already knew this; honestly, the hard part is realizing that you probably don't have a very good channel of communication. Also realize that asking your loved ones about it will most likely make them uncomfortable if communication isn't a strong point with you.

Un-fricken'-believeable....I can't describe this in any way, except...try it. Oh, and watch out for subliminal messages....
Warning!
� � � � If you are under the age of 18, or know that your parents really, really don't want like obscenities, I strongly suggest you only look at the link and do not go to the home page, which is simply sprinkled with every profanity you can imagine. And it doesn't make sense, either.

� � � � I was just wondering...how long should you wait to switch email systems? The reason I ask is that I've only had this (free) email address that I use for this very site for about six months, tops. However, for well over one of those months they've been updating their system, which for all its users means one thing: screwage galore. Firstly, they still have all of my old email and addresses...including a lot of your questions, which I can't post because I can't get to them. Secondly, the system is horribly delayed, which means that some of my questions and such are bouncing back and being lost in cyberspace. Thirdly, this has been going on for well over a month. Heck, well over two months! I don't want to abandon it, because there are some things they're storing that I, quite frankly, don't want to lose. And yet, I continue to hope that the system will, miraculously be up one day, and all will be well again, and I won't have to go to the trouble of sending all who use that address a notifying email that I've switched...because my address book isn't restored yet.
� � � � Quite a spot, huh? And it's made worse by my utter laziness. I don't deny it, I know I'm lazy. It's awful, but...it's me! And I'm comfortable with that, apparantly...because I'm not doing anything to change it.

� � � � Lovelorn and stumped would-be Romeos of the world, your pleas have been heard and answered!!! An angel of mercy with a gilded pen has come to save you tongue-tied hopeless romantics, and even you lazy bums with the ability but no motivation to get off your heinie. I present to you...The Cyrano Server!
� � � � The name comes from a work of literature called Cyrano de Bergerac, the main character of which was a brilliant poet, artist, and swordsman unequaled in all of France, but whose love for a cultured and intelligent woman was never requited because of his certainty that his giant nose made him unloveable. A cadet in Cyrano's troop fell in love with the same lady, but while young and handsome, he had no knack for the clever poetry needed to prove himself worthy of her love. In his desire to make the lady happy, Cyrano writes her letters from the battlefield in the name of the young cadet, able to express his burning love for her, though masked in Christian's guise.
� � � � Guess what? That's what this site does for you! Supply your own adjectives, nouns, names, and genre, pick a few graphics to dress it up, and voila...your very own love letter! Give it a try....what's the worst that can happen? At least you're not delivering it personally, right?
