Have you guys ever thought that our lives are one gigantic global version of Truman Show, with some unknown audiences that are laughing over our misery?
I've been thinking. Maybe there's some beings watching us from somewhere. To them, the whole earth is one big TV show. They feed on our tragedies. They feed on our pain. They feed on our sorrow.
And everything is farce to them. Wars, nations, religions, crimes, diseases, illnesses, accidents, heartbreaks, death and so on. They are all for entertainment.
We exist for their entertainment.

You and you alone are the creator of your life. If your unhappy with what you've created, then choose to re-create. Feeling sorry for yourself and blaming other will keep you in that pit of despair. Your free to climb out whenever you choose. If you need help, its there for the asking.
The greatest stories of life, are about people who lost everything, and were able to turn their lives around and inspire us to overcome those things that hinder us.

What gets me is how others influence events in our lives..
Example: Hubby had to leave to pick up a computer for the office tonight , that we had to have put in the shop because a young kid who works on the cars took it upon himself to use it Sunday when the shop was closed to look at porn, and with his actions the computer got viruses... and then.. we had to put it in the shop..
1. We had to do without the computer for the past few days at the shop.
2. We are out $ to have it cleaned up and repaired.
3. Hubby had to leave to get computer back.. NOW!..
All of this because some kid wanted to look at porn....

I'm so happy you brought this up...
I think that at some point in history Aliens cross-bred with apes.
That's why we still have apes. If you believe in evolution, one particular question that you would anticipate from opposing views would be, why are apes still around?
That's when I saw the light. Only a percentage of the apes were used in the huge experiment called the Homosapien.!!!
That's why people see them from time to time, especially in Mexico a few years ago. In one close up of the vehicle flying, a zoom was studied by a computer analysis revealing two occupants standing adjacent to each other. A deeper zoom revealed even something more astonishing. One of the faces looked eeringly close to a person resembling a Myan male, with a clear shot of the outline of a beard.....Very un-nerving to see....
Just like that Twilight Zone episode.

Some people think that the apes may be asking why humans are still around!
Many others believe that we are the aliens, a colony was planted here long ago and we are it.

Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners.

There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

WOW!!!
Now that's deep......LOL
You're right, there are a lot more aliens here than ever....LOL
In seriousness, think about the last 200 years of the industrial revolution. Can you seriously look at me eye to eye and say that something hidden from us by the govt. is a false way of thinking? I say not.....!
What a boom in scientific discoveries starting with the invention of the light bulb, to modern day electronic equipment, to say the least. Information has definitely been passed on. And we are being deprived of it.
Do you really believe that Alien...the kid from cuba was really a human?

You've got reality and fantasy confused. What you're thinking of was an episode of Star Trek.

Have you ever thought the entire universe is just one molecule under the fingernail of a larger living thing ?

A Computer in the Work Place should be configured in such a way that this kind of misuse could not be accomplished by the User IDs available to Employees. In addition in the event a User ID with Internet Access was left on their should be Anti-Virus and Trojan Software to prevent the possibility of infection.

These theories about human existence have been around for centuries. They are usually referred to as Panspermia and Exogenesis.
Most Christians and Jews consider these theories about where we came (which contradict the Bible) to be blasphemy.

As a practical matter it's impossible to configure the computer to prevent somebody from watching porn if they have web access (or even email, FTM). You can block existing websites, but if any of today's new websites (and there are always new porn sites) have a new IP you can't block it until you know about it. The incident described doesn't demonstrate that the protections against misusing the computers isn't adequate, it shows that the overall security program isn't good enough. I promise it won't get better if somebody from IT has to spend a lot of their time trying to stop employees from looking at porn.

To tell you the truth it's not that hard to do!

A good example is the Public Library: The Local Public Library has Computers setup for locating library material in their online catalog. The only thing you can do is access the catalog and nothing else (no email, no web surfing, etc, etc), so the Computer, she used to use to surf the net with, needs to be configured for a Business Environment which would ony give the Employee access to the software required to run the business and nothing else (no email, no web surfing, etc, etc). Doing anything less is asking for trouble!

You can't blame the Employee (he was only being Human)!

You can only blame the Employer who didn't take steps to Protect the Computer that runs his Business!
