I hope you at least saw my “rig” bicycle pic i sent..I pray all goes well with you, especially with your music..I alo thank you for helping me make a decision regarding mac. computer..

Cecilla, I am glad you like biking..I do have clipless pedals, Really cool racing shoes, Sidi to be exact… I am a 30 something but look younger. Blonde hair, blue eyes.. I have solar panals on my trailor to power all my camera equipment..I have north face tents, sleeping bags, northface everything.. I will go through all kinds of terrain so I need good gear.. I am like a kid in a toy store right now.. I have my total weight of my gear down to an amazing30 lbs. Including a solar shower.. The cool thing is when I hit the road and get a little dirty, I usually meet the coolest people.. My bicycle is a 18 pound race bike with 30 speeds. Tell me about you and your thoughts… Rob
Hi Cecillia, I do have some new news…. I am taking the summer off and travelling cross country across the USA.. I am going to pedal my bicycle and camp out in remote places..I will film the trip and make a documentary…If you want to see some pics let me know OK… I have a bicycle trailor that i will pull and have all my gadgets… Its exciting….Also about learning guitar, if you need any help with music theory, how to hit chords, scales , arpeggios, anything related to playing guitar, ask me… I love sharing knowledge….Also, would you l;ike to exchange pictures… I was just wondering what you looked like…Tell me your thoughts… Till we talk again…Rob
Thanks again for your kind words… You really are someone who I enjoy chatting with…..I never put the make on you because its a little tacky over the net…I also encourage you to seek out your dream Cecilla, weather its sharing your wonderful gift or sharing your knowledge … Somehow I get this feeling your someone special… Rare these days….Keep in touch and I want to be first in line if you put out a CD……….Rob
Well you know I used to do concerts with “the Seeds” Anyway Sky Saxon who was the lead singer died on the same day michael jackson died…We was all torn over his loss.. He really was a true rock star but somehow through the years the new kids growing up never heard of “the Seeds” He was a best friend and we had a memorial concert for him in northern Calif… Billy Corgan from Smashing Pumkins was also there to pay respects…. I guess for a lot of us we have to accept that its now over… I dont even know if playing music onstage has the same appeal as it did 10 years ago.. There are now so many bands that sometimes I just like playing privately… For me I feel the time to move on may mean less time giving music away and more time living…I have to see how I feel after the summer…
Cecilla, how are you? I saw you online.. I changed my username.. I am Rob the musician .. You and I talked about Macs and recording software… Tell me whats new with you…
Hey. I do remember you being one of the nicest persons chating with me back on that topic about being ugly or not.
It’s funny that around school and highschool I was one of the best in my class at math and informatics (I’m freelancing in the programming bussiness and online and you have to known mathematics and stuff). I went to college and I’ve done a year of computer science but then I dumped it in order to follow my pasion pychology. Basicaly I was interested in psycho-sociology (I like very much the idea of the masses and stuff) but in fact it’s cool to begin learning more about humans like an individual and then taking the masses. I work at a couple of online project [ mine ] that involve puting things on the web that people would buy, that would go viral, like youtube, twitter and stuff :-)
You know, you may say that I’m strange but I’ve never had the “power” to meet someone from another place with ideas like mine. I think that the internet, for example, gives us a big big oportunity to meet people all around the world thinking like us and we don’t have to stay only in our country to deal with people we dislike. For me the idea is awesome.
I think it can be a great experience to talk with someone from another country, culture and maybe I’ll give a shoot and visit more of Irland to.
I basicaly live an unconventional life. Like you sayed, I don’t give much to importance to people that try to “convert” me to being mediocre. I have a couple of good friends that share my ideas and others but they don’t tell me: “you are wrong?”, “you’re not going to do it”. There are many peoples that told me that I’m never going to succed in online bussiness or other things but I always trusted myself and I try to win every time. People convert people to mediocrity in order to fullfil their selfish desire, because they could not do it, why others to do it? That’s how they’re thinking. For example I don’t like to date a girls to being with her. I’ve “dated” some girls that all become my friends because I do like having a good friend rather than someone that thinks she knows about love and stuff like that. I don’t know if you understand the idea. Basicaly I give a finger to everyone, but the whole hand I only give to people that are capable to do something amazing in their life or are smart enough in order to realize what they’re leaving and not to be sheeps. I don’t have anything with sheeps [ people ], but they’re to lazy and say the same things over and over again.
There are some people that used their life to have the same old friends all their life. Same old house, job, money. I think that freedom is the power to be smart enough and make the right choices in order to visit as much you can and meet and exchange ideas with as many friends you can. I think it’s awesome. How you sayed, the world is just to big and many of the people don’t even start to visit it because they are to afraid. They are possesive, selfish, mediocre and lazy and don’t even want to think or consider the possibilities to have the money or the power to travel, meet people, be happy, become smarter and free by knowing more and more.
I’ve wrote to much. Maybe we meet this year if I manage to get my bussines in the way and have enough money to travel through Ireland to. It would be a great experience. I want to visit as many places I can.
Thank you for a thoughtful followup.. I decided to get both…Its time for me to de-thrown some rockers…Laughing out loud with a devilish grin… Rob, hey if I was in Ireland i would want to meet you… Rob
Thank you cecilia… I think I will let the order go through, and wen its time to get a home computer I will shout you again.. Well as far as lots of tracks I plan on laying tracks like Tom sholtz of Boston.. I am a perfectionist but am in a three piece right now, typical rock sound with doubling up on the guitar parts, or tripling, you get the idea… Again thanks..Rob
Friend like you I also worked my butt off in the music buisness but I never had the time to catch up with the ever evolving technology…I honestly was putting my all into shows and performing.. I need to catch up real fast.. I want the laptop for music, production laying tracks… And also for basic computer surfing….I own the dell studio and need more…
It is. You can find details in the TOU pages. The law is not about political correctness but about protecting children from being accessed by inappropriate individuals. Trust me. You and I and most on here are well meaning. There have been those who have actively sought out such posts before now .. and not to help. Here’s the link http://help.com/faq#sect12 If we get it wrong, we risk getting the site shut down. We did give advice, so we have a balance.
Hi there. I understand your concern. However, it’s against the law for any of us to help anyone under 13. It’s not just a moderation issue. We have to be careful too or we all get into trouble. I have seen helpers get drawn into pedophile posts before now. They all look to be so innocent. That’s why the law exists.
Here’s a funny thing about that link I mentioned in my previous shout… it was people from here, they made a group, some were dis-satisfied, so they made another group, and the other one was called “Luminosity”, and the icon-symbol for the group was a lightbulb :) I joined both briefly, noticed they seemed like they could be good things, but then noticed it was a huge waste of time. Thanks for your note, I appreciate it.
omg thank you… I didn’t read your words past “nicest” yet but I get some scary shouts and I just am thanking you for being you as the you who accepts me.
Okay now I read your words :) They’re very nice, thanks.
About all being well — I’ve been so something — confused or not comprehending well I guess — that’s why I didn’t respond to invitations.
About me thinking you are awesome — I had only one person on my “fan” list for a long time. I figured since you were studying music it’d be helpful to have a fan.
I suppose that “not hiding your ‘high-qualitiness’” might refer to being brave enough to be a light unto the world, rather than, for instance, being afraid of being turned into a lightbulb. I have a better answer that involves all the ways I’m particularly impressed by you — but maybe that’s a magic trick, maybe only few are allowed to see that, because I looked at your posts and there isn’t the amount of response or attention that I would expect to you. Then again, maybe it’s because you don’t spend as much time on this site as some others.
I went and applied for a job at this place: http://www.arcthrift.com/ when you wrote that ‘inspiring’ post. I have experience because I worked at a nonprofit store like that before called “Good Will” which was right across the street from our church (which is called “Light of the World”)
(I was thinking about you because you walked right up and said that I did something right, which felt great because I have tried to help you a little sometimes.)
Hi… I just saw another one of your posts with only one little reply (about skiing) — but I really don’t understand … you don’t hide your “high-qualitiness”, you don’t show off either, you act like a decent person — sometimes really inspiringly like with that light of the world post. So, basically, I’m not sure, it’s a little mystery to see you get no replies.
coolll. i know what you mean about people assuming your are delusional just for believing that there is something that put us on this earth, and i can look around and see clear evidence that it makes more sense than most theories…
and it doesnt help that its hard to find people with a like mind.
so… i assume are you a christian. i havent worked with computers, as im actually still looking for a first job… hopefully ill find one soon enough however.
its nice to meet you,
so you can shout me anytime you want.
Sorry for the confusion with the poorly worded question about mixolydian. There are however a lot of present day artists that have no idea how music came to be. I was intriqued to see that someone elso (Aeolian) has taken an appreciation for the old school too. Anyhow, I’m a self taught musician of sorts and will no doubt benefit from many of your post responses. Seems to me that when young folks are opening up enough to ask questions (on this venue)you would be more receptive and less chastising. I’m not criticizing, just wondering why you are being so tough with them? I guess having grown up with mostly nothing and no mentors I’m a softy when it comes to helping others get started. My contribution to life I guess. By the way, I’m still figuring out how to navigate this site so I’ve been a little slow finding my way back to you. Apology’s for the delay!!
Thanks for the HU, I don’t think I am in a similar situation, but I’ve started to accept that if I’m interested in something, there has got to be a reason.
He’s an emotional rescuer, but he wasn’t emotionally available for a normal relationship? And you really needed single time?
Good to hear you’re clearing your head and seeing him as a real person, not just a fantasy.
Hmm, ok, yeah, I am in similar situation. LOL. It was hard to do, but I told a lady I liked and who thought she was in love with me that she actually wasn’t, and that she barely knew me. She now does like me, but as as friend :-| oh well.
I never followed up like this before, but I was wondering how things work out after even a few days breathing space and too see what advice was acutually helpful looking back. Share as much as you want, but be interested in know about the “friends - more than friends - back to friends” thing. Hope you doing well, and remember it just not girls that don’t know what they want, they just admit it more.
