I do not really found it wrong that guns and rivals are been sold in Wal*mart, even though that it is kind of disturbing that they put it right next to the toys department for children, from one child to another? But I do not have a bad attitude against selling guns. I will let that part totally be in control of the USA government, as long as this is not my country and no gun is pointed at me. It doesn’t disturb me to see them and I found it even fascinating (not every day in my country do I see a fake deer to learn to shoot).


I can also understand people with no internet at home, although I will act with surprise and wondering about how it is possible to still not have a computer, since my main source, hobby, enjoyment and outlet of creativity is the computer. But I will totally agree with the calm, the silence without the soft humming sound of the ventilator of the computer, and the disfrustration of illiteracy towards the computer, because by all means I am not one who you can call a nerd. You can give me a book and I would be happier than with any attribute for the computer that you can give me.


Certainly, I was more than excited when one gave me my own website address and space, and with my first own notebook, and the lousy webcam. And I am still glad with them, more because they still help me and enjoy me in my everyday life. But I know that they are not everything. Just as nothing that is made by human hands and made from a fragilely material could mean more than life itself and the attributes (love, relations, experience,…) that make the trip through life worthwhile.


Displaying ignorance towards people without internet at home was wrong from me. But the ignorance that I received back was more than I could handle. What I didn’t understand, why it was sad that internet played such an important role in my life, while none would have said the same thing if it was music that made me drool (or any other 'acceptable' form of receiving pleasure). “No, is internet everything for you? That is sad.” Well, my friends, I never said that it was my everything, but it is the most important material thing in my life, right next to my digital photo camera.
