I'll try to explain what this ng is generally about. See, a.s.h. is sort of like Death's Bus Stop. We're all sitting around, waiting for the bus, shooting the shit. Eventually, we all intend to get on (occasionally, one of us does), although it's not exactly an easy thing to do, for various reasons. So while we're waiting, we discuss ways to make it easier, among other things. But here's the deal: this newsgroup is for people who have already decided that, at some point, we are gonna GET ON THAT BUS. We're not the least bit interested in being talked into getting up off the bench and going home. And we don't care if that seems sad, or pathetic, or whatever.

It's a good idea to read the FAQ for a newsgroup before posting to it, to determine which types of posts are appropriate and which aren't. Obviously, no one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to do this - you can tromp right in and post whatever you want, wherever you want. But if you do, then be prepared for responses like this:

Take your direction, your advice, your tough love, and your reality doses, blow them out your ass, and light a match.

Hugs and Kisses,
