After creating an album, I tried to post an image, the problem being nothing happend after I clicked the browse button.

Edit.

After creating a Group and testing the functions, when I tried to "disband" the group I got this error:

exception 'Exception' with message 'exception_accessdenied' in /home/ron/public_html/ospap2/pages/groups.php:254
Stack trace:
#0 /home/ron/public_html/ospap2/cls/clsTemplate.php(71): require()
#1 /home/ron/public_html/ospap2/index.php(118): clsTemplate->get()
#2 {main}"

Edit.

Is there some way I am missing of uploading pictures without having to create a new album?
I also find the website minimalistic and hard on the eyes. I'd suggest an update to the website layout in general.

Tailgating for 2 hours and 45 minutes and not even buzzed? You definitely don't 'gate hard enough.

Edit: I tailgated too hard yesterday for my moms liking. I leave my parents to go to a fraternity tailgate (I say they can come, but they didn't) and come back at half time smelling of bourbon, then a little bit after halftime I guess I took my sister down there to get some food - and came back smelling of bourbon. She's like "We come here to see you and all you want to do is drink." (Likewise Friday night, tell them I'm tired and get back from dinner at around 10 and don't go to bed until 3:45 because I was up drinking.) She thinks I'm an alcoholic, but my parents did buy me a case before they left and a 6 pack of Mike's so I'm confused...

Obviously, they want you to be responsible with your alcohol, and they didn't judge you as being that when they visited.

drinking with your parents there? Seriously?

It's one of the ten gentlemanly virtues..

LOL.

BTW, Trust, if you view Robert E. Lee as the quintessential southern gentleman, then what would you have to say about the fact that he didn't drink? As in, he didn't even drink casually.

Umm yeah! I have drank Tequila with my mom and beer with my dad, some parents are extremely tolerant but maybe too tolerant... Anyway I like a little tolerance.

The word home slice was spread around some schools I went to in the past, never heard Zerg yet, but if I did i'd freak out since I love star craft to death.

Can you really say you care if they pushed a button to fix this problem or not? They we're product testing so some bugs or kinks could have been involved in this. Are you saying, literally pushing a button to fix this or as a figure of speech?

Takes more than pushing a button to fix that. The malfunction was with "product testing", I'm sure they didn't know what the hell they were doing.

Orwell had a great deal of trouble publishing Animal Farm. He became frustrated, and wrote this preface, which he never decided to publish, and was published only recently. It's incredibly good. Orwell was a very strong writer and his mind was like a steel trap for social/political/politically influenced maneuvers.

(A few typos, since the author of this page must have re-typed it).

Edit: Excerpt
Quote
The issue involved here is quite a simple one: Is every opinion, however unpopular â€” however foolish, even â€” entitled to a hearing? Put it in that form and nearly any English intellectual will feel that he ought to say â€˜Yesâ€™. But give it a concrete shape, and ask, â€˜How about an attack on Stalin? Is that entitled to a hearing?â€™, and the answer more often than not will be â€˜Noâ€™. In that case the current orthodoxy happens to be challenged, and so the principle of free speech lapses.

Quote
I am well acquainted with all the arguments against freedom of thought and speech â€” the arguments which claim that it cannot exist, and the arguments which claim that it ought not to. I answer simply that they donâ€™t convince me and that our civilisation over a period of four hundred years has been founded on the opposite notice. For quite a decade past I have believed that the existing Russian rÃ©gime is a mainly evil thing, and I claim the right to say so, in spite of the fact that we are allies with the USSR in a war which I want to see won. If I had to choose a text to justify myself, I should choose the line from Milton:

By the known rules of ancient liberty.

The word ancient emphasises the fact that intellectual freedom is a deep-rooted tradition without which our characteristic western culture could only doubtfully exist. From that tradition many of our intellectuals arc visibly turning away. They have accepted the principle that a book should be published or suppressed, praised or damned, not on its merits but according to political expediency. And others who do not actually hold this view assent to it from sheer cowardice.

The author of this passage has expressed an idea I have thought of, which is freedom of speech. After reading that, from what I understand A confident man listens to people and has no problem with freedom of speech. Only a coward shall deny another man freedom of thought or speech, hence the western culture which is built on these fundamental ideas is far superior while lesser nations oppress thoughts and freedoms of speech (...) are typically suffering.
