THOUGHTS

My so-called life...
This text includes a few 'mild' obscenities (!) so if you are under the mental
age of 12, please seek parental guidance. If you are the parent, I
pity you.
The "Thoughts" page has been split into sections. Firstly, to assist
those with low-memory machines; secondly, so you don't need to fetch the past
articles to read what's new.
If you have a reasonable browser, the list will look correct. Otherwise...you
will soon spot the problem. :-)
New 'thoughts' at the end...
