2. Oh, I completely know what you mean. I always go with the given subject line, avoids duplicates for one thing

But I have gotten insults here just based on the subject line. Meidas Touch is the worst, they're obviously looking for attention. When they started, I got rid of all the CAPITAL LETTERS, but I finally just went with their chosen title. I often mess with the descriptions, though. I don't know who writes these, but there are typos, misspellings, and since it used to be my job to write these, I fix them up - or if a video doesn't have a description, I usually write my own.

And I sure hope that you're hanging in there these days. Since I spend time on DU and watch the news, I can get pretty depressed - so I take a break before I go to bed, usually watch something amusing on television.

Hang in there, my friend! I keep telling myself that what we're going through now can't last forever. I just wish I had my grandmother to talk to these days. She had a rough time, her mother died when she was 13 and my grandfather died quite suddenly of a heart attack just past her 40th birthday, leaving her with 4 young kids, my youngest uncle wasn't even in school yet. But she persevered, got them moved into a house they'd just bought, went back to work and made sure that all her kids had an education (she used to be a teacher).

So I try to be like her, though I know I never will make it, but I try.
