I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

Chorus:
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

Chorus

(Instrumental break)

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa, I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa, I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Win XP Home Edition "Workgroup" issues?

Newly restored Dell workstation with Win XP Home Edition can't see other computers on the peer-to-peer network. This includes shared folders.

The other 2 computers (one XP Home and one XP Pro) can see everything (including this one). I can only map the shared folder using the IP address and I can ping other computers on the network by IP only.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Can I get my deposit back from the builder? (escrow)?

June of 06', i entered into a purchase contract with a builder in Austin TX to buy a new construction home. It is nearing completion in late January and I am running into a snag. I am looking into financing now and am unable to qualify for any loan due to income. My income will not cover the loan nor will come close. The builder up to this point has NEVER asked me for any type of prequal letter from any lender. Since I cannot qualify for a loan in TX, am I entitled to get my deposit back? I am not familiar with TX law. Please assist.

How is the Bible considered the "word of god"?

The Bible was written by men, not god. How do you know that the translation from the original text to English was correct? How do you know that there aren't pieces of the Bible left out to keep certain details from public knowledge? How do you know which "version" is correct, the KJV or the NIV? How can any of them be correct when they are just a "version" of the original? Doesn't that mean that someone changed things a little to produce what they considered to be "correct"?

Please do me a favor and answer using your own words and not quoting some scripture that a "man" wrote.

If there was a way to create a parallel system to the current system of separation would you be interested?

The idea is to create a system that is based on Unity to parallel Separation.

To facilitate this idea, we would have to create a separate environment. Please see www.invention.net/yon. This is a recently appropved US patented invention that addresses transportation and a different living standard wereby all members of the society work in the interest of the whole (Unity) and not the self (Separation).

Need participants of all kind. Tell us what you think.

Is the World essentially ordered or essentially Chaotic?

Is there, at society’s core, an intrinsic sense of order that prevails?
Or, is it the other way around? Chaos is the primary force and People merely create pockets of Order within it; you carve order into the realm of randomness and disorder.
