About our mothers and fathers lives and the lives of their families while they were growing up? How much do we know about their siblings; our aunts and uncles? How much do we know about the lives of our grand-parents and their families and family members? What do we really know about the lineage of our families beyond our immediate grand-parents:0http://2hl.blogspot.com/2005/03/making-difference.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (David Cobb)Tue, 15 Mar 2005 00:49:00 -0500tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9211840.post-111051652113750876Several days ago I was reading an editorial by Thomas Friedman, foreign affairs columnist for the New York Times. He was writing about the recent demonstrations and upheaval in Lebanon subsequent to the death of Rafik Hariri. One of the quotes used in his piece struck a chord with me. Speaking of the recent social unrest, he quoted Lebanese political analyst Nawaf Salam describing the revolution 1http://2hl.blogspot.com/2005/02/respectful.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (2nd Hand Lions Club)Wed, 23 Feb 2005 21:02:00 -0500tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9211840.post-110921133479329854I grew up in home where sometimes alcohol was overly consumed. Those who have grown up in the same environment know exactly what I am saying. I won’t go too deep into this right now. Many believe we inherit a gene that can make us alcoholic. Others feel it is an environmental matter. I know this, I could develop an alcohol problem just like anyone else. I am subject to the many pulls and stresses1http://2hl.blogspot.com/2005/02/house-of-mourning.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (David Cobb)Sun, 13 Feb 2005 09:32:00 -0500tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9211840.post-110830684354947019This past Friday I had the always sobering experience of attending a funeral viewing, for a friend who passed away prematurely in this instance. His name was David Ratts, and he was my undergraduate academic advisor in the School of Informatics. I don't think I've ever had a more energetic, caring and helpful counselor at school; unfortunately he was several years from reaching his allotted years1http://2hl.blogspot.com/2005/01/cultural-views-on-drinking.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (David Cobb)Sat, 29 Jan 2005 09:14:00 -0500tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9211840.post-110701092267384345Mr. McNeely mentioned in his e-mail regarding the Taste of Scotland outing that he planned to write and talk about responsible drinking in conjunction with the event. I thought I'd pass on a couple of interesting articles that I read recently on the topic of alcohol use in Britain. The first article is from the British news magazine The Economist.

For many, God never comes to their mind, unless it's in the form of vulgarity. For others, God occupies recesses of bias so thick that not even He can believe the anaroebic nature of its environment. Still, others 0http://2hl.blogspot.com/2004/12/bib-overalls.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (2nd Hand Lions Club)Sun, 5 Dec 2004 17:50:00 -0500tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9211840.post-110228707825160920There was a time I used to look at men wearing bib overalls and think, “what a goofy looking piece of clothing”.
