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

    Communication's sound
    Is forever ear bound,
    But what matters is the start-
    What was formed in the heart.

    Words we may not keep,
    But intention touches deep.
    It may cut or caress,
    Energize or depress.

    Though our common misconception,
    Our comfy self-deception,
    Is: we have no control,
    Over personal perception.

    If the heart goes unheard,
    The true intent is lost.
    A structure's built on words,
    At communication's cost.

    inspired by my family, of course.
