About me - Jeg Brown

I am in my late 30's and I write mostly when I am depressed, or when trying to pass on what knowledge I have gathered in my short years.

A Man Named JimThere once was a man named Jim,Who found a woman,He thought perfect for him.She had silky hair and was fair of face,And when she smiled at him,It made his heart race.Her skin was finer than the finest cream.Desire pounded and filled his soul with such passion and longing,He wanted to scream.The turn of her head...

The First HorsemanI am that which all men fearThey tremble, shake, and shudder when I am near.To me all are equal, none is a special case,For I know all men by their true face.When I walk it is something all men dread;For I walk with the silence of the dead.When men draw me, it is with a weapon of old.A large scythe for cutti...

The Eternal StoneI am the Eternal Stone.Always have I stood alone.Destined by Fate,never to know love, and always know hate.Used by men to build a castle grand.Or grind other's wills to so much sand.Never allowed to live my life in peace.I wish only for Death so my Hell will cease.To protect my heart,I built a wall of stone....

Computers & Technology > Internet Security & Safety (Other) Protecting children from Internet porn: 1 of 7
Something which most people do not want to hear in this day is about "responsibility". And yet it is the parent's responsibility, not the computer's to protect their children. This like anything, can be taken to an extreme where our children grow up to be so sheltered as to not be able to deal or cope with the realities of th... More..
Personal Finance > Mortgages & Home Loans Should the federal government offer foreclosure bailout relief for struggling homeowners?: 6 of 32
Two things which used to be taught to each child by their parents at a young age were;1) YOU are responsible for every one of your actions. And each decision/action will have a consequence that YOU will have to deal with.2) Do NOT spend money that you do not have. If you want it but cannot afford it, SAVE for it. Unfortunatel... More..

My MuseHer smile lights the room like the dawn.Safely sheltered by her love;All my fears are gone.Lovingly I gaze into her eyes.As deep and beautiful as any galactic nebulae;They lift my spirit to new highs.I reach tenderly to caress her soft cheek,Whilst gently brushing my lips against hers.She is everything a man could ever...

Politics, News & Issues > War in Iraq Should the US pull out its troops regardless of whether Iraq is ready to defend its people?: 54 of 164
While I agree that we should not have gone into Iraq the WAY we did, now that we have done it, we have the moral responsibility to ensure that after wiping out the only government and other infrastructures in place for the Iraqis, that we protect them until those structures are back in place. Going into a country, destroying... More..
Computers & Technology > Internet (Other) How to find an IP address in email: 1 of 3
Unfortunately in today's world we have to be careful of opening emails and be cautious of whether or not they ACTUALLY came from our friends and companies. I happen to know that my 10 year old son has NOT been looking for the 1,500 pre-approved mortgage offers he has received in the past year. Or for any of the offers of Viag... More..
Computers & Technology > Phone Service Providers Should cell phone providers be allowed to hold customers to long service contracts?: 17 of 46
In general I agree that any company should have the right to protect it's investments. And US cell phone contracts DO work to protect themselves from people changing providers every month to get the latest "best deal" based on commercials and specials run. HOWEVER, Cell phone companies SHOULD NOT be able to hold people to co... More..
