PS. Come look at my webcam and get cheap viagra just by leaving two credit card numbers.
spambots are relentless.
In the imperative form 'breathe' is spelled with an 'e' at the end. The word 'breath' is a noun. I am very annoyed with 'disqus' because it would not let me claim my comment, and its faq didn't explain how or why that would be. Also, in English the letter 'q' must make a 'kwu' sound when followed by 'u,' unlike in French and Spanish where the 'u' is ignored in favor of the 'i' or 'e' following it. Why is it that techies feel they are always allowed to change phonetic rules to suit therir personal aesthetic?
Anyway, instead of getting extremely frustrated with disqus and crying and getting your blog all wet, I decided to let out my frustration by correcting your grammar, and created a new profile in which I decided to go back to my usual name (I only post as Ellie here and on the Boundless Line [where there are a couple Ellies]). If you can figure out how it is supposed to work so that I can get Ellie back, I will be happy, but I am not techie enough to figure it out without getting more annoyed. Or else you will have to remeber that BTCarolus is Ellie (or you can call me Brian Titus, if you prefer, but don't call me BTC, please).
If it helps you to make the transition to Disqus ... correct my grammar until all the frustration just flows out.
I am sure I will give you plenty of opportunity.
Then what do you think of yourself?
you are biologically matured to the point of being a woman and not a girl.
If it is not getting to personal ... what is the difference in your case?
If you don't want to answer that's cool. I am nosy.

I think being a woman is a matter of internal emotional maturity, and it's something that I realize I lack. I have just recently become mature enough to be aware of that (and thank God I was protected from doing some of the stupid things I have been tempted to by the hubris being a teenager in college brought on). When I'm a woman I think I'll be mature enough, and self-aware enough to realize it. But I don't think that I am one right now.
is a great question. Same is true from when a boy becomes a man. Perhaps
the better way to put it is that physical maturity doesn't make a boy or
girl emotionally mature enough to be a man or woman. Thanks for your
honesty.
And for not telling all the details.
I do kind of think it's a good idea though, once I get used to it.

On this computer I can read the 'recent thinkers' bar much better (cool title, btw), but it is still hard to read the comments as I type them.

Very handy feature.
I am not having the same problem as you are having on the blog. I did check out my options but I don't have the geek super powers to redesign the input areas. Sorry.
My laptop still has the issue of the comment entry box hiding its end behind the sidebar, making it very hard to type out the ends of lines, and impossible to scroll back to sections that have gone above or below the margins of the box. I think that might be a screensize issue, although my laptop is 14" and still has a good 3 or 4 inches total of black background extending out from either side.
What I was going to change was to say that it's about two inches sticking out from either side, or about 4 inches toatl (don't know whether I spelled total right 'cause I can't see it, and tired of retyping it) of black background. So I don't know if the main body of the blog has no room to expand further, or if my laptop just can't deal with it.
Then what do you think of yourself?
If any other pc people are having the same issues please chime in with any "I feel your pain" comments or tips and tricks on how to fix it.

but I think the beta would work with this site too. Firefox is free.
Plus I can read my comments as I type them. I think all the problems are solved :)
Although I suppose that most people would say the explorer question is answerable in a simple word: Microsoft.

yeah... read the newest post. I am not cool with duplicating my blog for the search engines and whatnot. Plus, I didn't bother you with all the behind the scenes research that was continually making me nervous.
I am not just saying that either.
I'm not sure I'm happy with firefox's spellchecking, but maybe I will like it better because it will cut down on embarrassing spelling mistakes.
