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 puffing on stolen cigarettes
    Because it seems I've quit
    It seems a lot of things
    Illusions to make truth a bit less edgy
    Secret lives aren't so hard to imagine
    We wear so many masks throughout the day
    Some more outlandish than others
    Or are they just layers?
    Nope, definately deception
    It's comforting to know insecurity
    Is a common side effect of being human
    We can't really be ourselves
    Except during those rare beautiful occasions
    When we are completely and deliciously alone
    Privacy is a delicacy
    Especially to the palate of the successfull
    As sucess grows so does it's sinister cousins
    Fear and doubt
    One big happy family
    No one is completely anchored

    Magical Secrets abound..
    like a fortunate society;
    whispering ley-lines, megalithic

    Darn. I thought it was going to be about George and Louise Jefferson.
