Anonymous Help

Sorry I haven't blogged in a few days.  Our internet was down for two or three of them and the other one or two were just really late nights.

I've had a technical question brewing in my mind for some time which I've been searching the net for answers.  Depending on your question, you can find the exact answer you're looking for, just by your wording.  For instance, my sister once googled "accidents involving Rotweillers" just because she didn't want us to get one.  Of course she found all kinds of answers to support her cause.
I wanted to make sure I wasn't doing a biased search so I went to the experts on public forums specific to my query.  It's really interesting and fascinating, being able to ask professionals in a particular field (I assume) a question and get all kinds of answers.  These are strangers who are more than willing to answer another stranger's question just because they are passionate about their area of expertise.  That's quite something!

I'm thankful for those people out there who enjoy what they do and share their knowledge and advice with others.  Then it's my option to take it or leave it, but it's still there for the taking.  And since I missed a few days, I'm also thankful for:  family game night (Apples to Apples - I lost), neighbours who give you a bucket of fresh strawberries already cleaned, a grandpa who takes his grandsons out for lunch just because, 152 kids who come to daily Bible camp with all their enthusiasm and vitality, and hanging out with your friends around a campfire.  Good night!  A.
