1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    I'm alone a lot-but never lonely.

    I rarely ever feel lonely but the one time that really stands out was while I was reading Theodore Sturgeon's short story Saucer of Loneliness.

    I was home alone and there was a raging blizzard outside, and I felt such a wave of loneliness while reading the story, I still remember it a decade later. For that one moment though I could absolutely empathize with the protagonist.
