Chaim,
I think the old QPTV shows were really popular with the older (and more affluent ) people, who are not in touch with using the internet. I know many older people, 70 to 85, in my neighborhood who are asking what happened to the Cable show. Aren't you cutting off alot of people by not doing the show?
P.S. I spoke to someone who works down at QPTV and he said that the manager was scared of you. He didn't want to offend you by not putting on your tapes.
Masha:
I read an article about "transgender" children in the Atlantic Monthly that really disturbed me. They give drugs to pre-puberty children, followed by a hormonal treatment, in order to turn them into the opposite sex. They say that some children are born with hormonal imbalances that make them display the behavior of the wrong gender. So they "treat" them with drugs and hormones and turn them into transvestites while they are still children (first the drugs to stop puberty between the ages 10 and 14, followed by the hormones of the opposite sex from the age of 14). This really bothers me. If these children have hormonal imbalances that make them behave abnormally, why not give them the hormones of their correct gender, so that their behavior starts conforming again? Wouldn't that make more sense? The fact that they don't do this tells me that this is not about helping these children, it's about creating more weirdos and transvestites for the purpose of undermining the foundations of our culture. What do you think about this? (Oh, and it was Holland that first developed this "treatment." Why am I not surprised?).

Shalom Chaim,
My gut feeling tells me that we are in for some troubling, even disastrous times. It seems that as a global society we have lost our way, and have forgotten who our Creator, the one true G_D is. Most people do not care about anything anymore, and it just seems that we are living in a horror movie. I myself feel very uneasy and a sense of loneliness in this morally decaying society. Yes, I have a wonderful wife and two young boys who I would do anything for. We truly love one another. I even got a promotion at my job, which is truly amazing considering the state of the economy! I pray to Hashem several times a day, whenever I get an opportunity (bus commute to/from work, evening), and bless and thank Him for what we all have and take for granted, and acknowledge that we must continue to maintain our relationship with Hashem. So why do I feel so uneasy and alone. Actually, quite a number of people I know feel the same way. Considering what you have been through in your life, I would greatly appreciate your thoughts and advise. Could it just be a case of Obama-itis, or is it something more? Thanks!
May Hashem continue to bless us all!
Tykus1
