Tell the phone company in your region that publishes it that you don't want to be listed - either in print or online. Your name should be gone in the next edition.
We pay extra for that in Germany, but I think it's worth it. One of the things I did a month or two before starting my blog.

I write under my nickname, because I don't like people who know me know more into my personal life. But I don't trash talk them either or use real names of people who I know, because that could potentially put me and them in danger.

I always monitor what I write, because my father always tells me, that once it's out there, anyone can see it, so I am often careful not to put my address, tele or real name in any posts.

i'm at a point when i crave for hits more than class marks, comments matter more than real-life conversations and figuring out wordpress solutions attracts me more than creating artworks and i am an artist).
i can never make time to do chores cos i am creating drafts instead.
i care more for clean code that for a clean room.
i don't watch tv, cos i am spending time on the net.
sometimes when i go put i feel really disoriented, cos i have been staring at at screen the whole day and my spatial intelligence seems paralyzed.

well, i am not like this most of the time....but anyhow........sometimes i feel really worried.

I have to go Google his name. But it could be him. Just be careful and never tell anyone online anything personal where they can eventually find you.

The woman who was threatening to kill me hasn't checked in for many months. I have to check my files to see the last time she did comment. I had saved everything just in case. Last time she said the knife is ready and she would cut me from ear to ear or something. She was also convinced that I called the police on her and that I was calling her home. I told her I had no idea who she was and just ran a stupid celebrity blog. She wanted to kill Tobey McGuire's fiance and her father. And then also me because I deleted her comments. I eventually banned her IP but her comments went to comment moderation first. But she kept on screaming about that I was deleting her comments.

its my theory about autism. some childrens brains are not wired right to handle the rapid developement and stress put on in the first three years of an infant life. from having an empty brain ready to be filled with knowledge, skills, and many other things.
the child isn't mental prepared for all the growth. think about it? we learned to talk, crawl and then walk and many, many other things by the age of two. now what if, the parents are adding to the growth, their own stuff. maybe, they are pushing the child to far and too fast.
no, with the amount of lead our grandparents were around and our parents, especially fifty years ago. i think today with growing rate of autism. something esle is taking place.
so, much has changed today, then it was 50 years ago.
maybe, the people blaming the vaccines should look more at themselves. learn more about their genes. learn more about the things they did in their past and their parents past and so on. i just hope they don't get so wrapped up in blaming. they forget the one who is really suffering.
i growing up with a severely mentally challenged mind, my experiences has thought me not to look at myself in a bad way. these people may not know how to leave their legal matters outside. so, when they go home and talk about what happened today. as the child ages, that child will start to understand something in the wrong way. simple, because they were so, lost they couldn't see the damage they were causing by voiceing their minds out loud.
how many families have both parents working. twice the amount of problems are coming into the home. with over 40 something jobs under my belt. there isn't one job that runs perfect. parents will tend to talk out loud. shareing too much information isn't good for the child who accidentally over hears conversations on an adult level. but, what if that child is autistic?
