commenting on blogs
Commenting on blogs is an interesting experience.
I understand people want to protect themselves against automatic comments, but why choose a system that prevents almost all comments?
Some of those fake word systems display unreadable words, which means I have to type new words in about 3 times before I either have my comment submitte3d for approval or I'm kicked out of the system.
Others use combinations that not only need my full attention, but are also written so little I nearly have to press my nose through the screen to see them.
Oh and how about those blogs where they have a pop-up jump in your face when you go over a link with your cursor.
To go to the comment section one needs to click a link... can't, because that pop-up covers it completely.
Another annoying things crossed my path today.
Someone not bothering about the ease to comment.
You have to highlight the whole page to find where to type what... and the window to comment displays the same colour as the letters.
Blind commenting gets a whole new meaning that way.
With all the slow loading pages, my urge to comment is about zero.
And it disappears completely when I'm trying to type and the page is still loading, so the window jumps from under my cursor, hup hup, to other places on my screen.
Well, that is...when I've ever been able to dinf where to comment.
Some sections are to be found above a post, or under it, or in some graphics or even between all sorts of links I doubt anyone ever uses.
Well, I'm sure you've come to some understanding that I feel bugged by my own urge to comment sometimes.

Do you need some encouragement?
When I was a student I agreed completely with the idea that everyone should give a percentage of their income to charity.
I hoped that by the time I had children it would be normal to pay a percentage for housing, a percentage for education, etc, and a percentage for charity.
But people are too greedy.
Are you one of them?
Or are you altruistic when you're pushed a little?
Well, you can help yourself from this day on.
You can shop with AidMaker.
It's a small piece of software you can download from www.eengoedezaak.nl.
That's a site of aGoodCause.com.
You might have heard about this global organisation.
It's a partnership of 700 important NGO's, like Save the Children, the Red Cross, Oxfam, etc etc. They all work towards a better world for nature and all living beings.
With AidMaker you can shop at 5000 online shops and generate funds for these charities.
When you buy something at these shops, you'll pay the normal prize, but the retailer donates part of the money to the cause you have chosen. 75% of the total purchase will be donated.
There's no need to do something yourself.
After installing AidMaker and choosing the cause you want, all the rest is done automatically.
Ofcourse you can change the cause whenever you want to, but there's no need.
The system is just launched in 8 countries: America, Great Britain, Denmark, Italy, Germany, France and The Netherlands.
You can choose your own language at the site, where you can find more information.
I hope you too want to participate this way in generating funds for charities.

Does he know himself?
And this is the man who attacks the other candidate when he says he want to be better informed about certain issues to make a well balanced and well founded statement?
How are we ever going to believe this man in international matters after this?
Well, at least we can say we've been warned extensively.
Have a look
Happy November!
Featured at Laane's Links a blog that is well worth a visit.
I've found it on my daily walks on internet.

He won
Laane, have you ever thought during one of these drop-out shows: this is the winner?
Oh, yes.
Sometimes on just everyday brains. like when they were looking for a Joseph last weeks and I said that it would be the guy that looked most arabic.
It was just typecasting, because the voices and singing abilities/qualities were much alike.
But when I switched on a BBC talent show, just to see if my favorite soap had begun, I was caught by something that told me to keep watching. Me, the biggest zapper of the world.
So against all questions around me to go to another station I sat back and watched this:
He won!

about dropping links
Isn't it boring that people write comments just to drop their link?
That's why I hardly write on this blog.
Comments with commenrcial links are delited right-away.
When you want to advertise on my blog, ask me, and I give you proper attention in return for a boost in realising a dream.
No matter how nicely worded your dropped link-comment is, as owner of multiple blogs, I know you just paste a bit of prefab text.
Don't you take your own product serious?

Fashion on the streets
It's the end of may, and we're ready to welcome summer, in this part of the world.
We've been trying to observe which line of fashion people use.
Right now, we feel there is no specific trend that pop's up.
There are still a lot of leggings (ugh!), but with longer shirts on it. (Phew).
Especially young and middle aged people are using elements of the hippy style, which makes the streets look colourful.
A little bit more green is used, but often in combination with flowers. Large flowers.
A little less skirts than last year, but they are wider.
Ready for the petticoat?

Conducting
My dad was a conductor.
I've enjoyed the function for a while,
and now........
Grand Theft Auto 4. They love to play it.
Post is meant for grown-ups.
It's always nice have the oldest visit home.
He hasn't been around much, because he was able to get one of the GTA IV's that were sold when this month started.
GTA IV or GTA 4 stands for Grand Theft Auto 4.
It's a game, made by Rockstar Games, a new version of the already famous Grant Theft Games.
In fact it's the eleventh game in the series, meant for Xbox 360® and PLAYSTATION®3.
At first he thought it was just another version of the same, but when he was playing he realised that the new engine RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Gaming Engine), really makes a difference.
He also likes the fact that the controls are improved a lot.
He doesn't experience as many questions or uncertainties, which adds to the pleasure.
It also enables him to play "a better line", with the added experience of being able to add personal elements.
The fact that there is no recurrence from figures, like in the old versions, where different figures got the same look, makes one feel to be in a far more realistic world.
He also tried the game out with a couple of friends, and they all enjoyed it.
Need I say more?
