I can't believe it! Something really impossible happened to me. Never in a million years have I thought that my life would be touched by AIDS. I know that the disease is out there somewhere, but I never thought that I would know...

canesfan1964 Yep. Hockey is in the air. My little boy and the Canes started yesterday. Canes lost. I hope that is not a sign of what's to come this season. My son is a first year Bantam this year. I am looking forward more to his season than the Canes. I signed up for...

canesfan1964 Hi Bounce, I too have had a friend that had AIDS. He died over 20 years ago and I still think about him often. It is a lonely time for him and the best thing that you can do is to be there for him in whatever way he wants. Maybe a visit to the hospital or...

I don’t know whatever troubles or trials you’re going through, but I hope you would be able to relate to this discussion. The past couple of years have been pretty hard for me and my family, but it looks like there is a light at...

For the past few days, including last week, I’ve been dealing with a couple of major issues at work. I’ve been coming in early, staying late, and sometimes barely have time for lunch. Well today, I’ve come to a breaking point, for...

canesfan1964 I think everyone should give themselves a treat everyday. We all deserve it! :) You hang in there. Remember, it is just work..... It's important but not worth stressing over.

When I started out in this company where I work for now, I was fairly fit. There was a lot of manual labor in the previous company. It was a small shop, where not only did I do all the paperwork, I also did all the heavy...

canesfan1964 That's great! My son started roller blading before he started ice skating. He still skates everyday in the driveway. Good practice for the ice.

canesfan1964 Hi Bounce! I don't know how old you are but this is what happens when one becomes "middle-aged"! I would have given that guy a half of a peace sign to his thumbs up! The summer is coming and there will be more to do outside. Everyone gains a little during the...

On my way to work today, I passed through a residential area. It was mainly so I could avoid the regular rush on the main roads. One of the intersections I had to go through is a 4-way stop. As I was approaching the corner, I saw...

canesfan1964 Didn't you know that 4-way stops were designed so that smart people like us can give half a peace sign on a continual basis? LOL!!!

canesfan1964 I know exactly what you mean. I have never given up on my son. Like I said he is 17 and is an honor student in high school and is top of his class. I had to hire a lawyer when he was young to get his school to respond to his needs. I say this to everyone that...

canesfan1964 That is so wonderful to hear that you have this type of respite care. My son is 17. I remember how difficult it was to find places where he would fit in with other children. I would have given anything to have had an opportunity like this. It would have done a...

I recently read that about 20% of people dream in black and white only. How sad that would be! I dream in vivid color. How about you?

canesfan1964 I find that very interesting because my father suffered a heart attack over 20 years ago and it was at this time of year. He had a sudden death heart attack so I know that it does have something to do with stress.

A question about survival. What’s constantly on your mind lately? Or what’s holding you back from breathing a sigh of relief? Is it an extra day for a homework deadline? Or an extra day for the paycheck to come before a...

canesfan1964 Your kids are young. You never know what is down the road. Expose them. You are so close to Canada. You are actually in a better place geographically for hockey than I am. We may have to move one day so my guy will be in a more competitive environment. Just...

Great game tonight! It was 0-3 after the first period. Normally I would have given up and tune out. I would change the channel, and just wait for the next game. But considering that they've already had 9 games this season where...

canesfan1964 I have to admit that I sat down and watched the 1st and some of the second period and I just gave up (plus I was tired). I am so glad they came back. I know Luongo is happy. Those 3 they ripped past him in the 1st scared me. I think they are adjusting to...
