We're a somewhat opinionated bunch here at O7, and we have opinions on just about everything. So, we decided to throw out some of our random opinions here on our web site. We chose to stay slightly reserved as to not get us in too much trouble with the general public ;) ...well, maybe not?
Here is a concoction, in no particular order (we really need to catagorize these...someday). Some of them may make sense, some may not? Many of them make us say "hmmmm?", or maybe that's "huuuu?", any way here we go...(from an American perspective)
God
Elvis
We're not sure about him. (?)
Religion
What ever works for you.
Should never be used as an excuse to conquer territories or people in a forceful manner.
Money can buy lots of things
except the most important.

Some people need to learn the definition of the word
Fame
We're still working on the rest of our 15 minutes.
Can a "sold" soul ever be saved?
With God all things are possible.
Creation vs. Evolution
Okay, why can't both be true?
Radio stations
Maybe it's just us, but our local stations say "all your favorites, all the time,"(?)
and "the songs you want to hear," Not quite!
What about "continuous music"(??) Yeah right.
(Is it just me, or where I live, but it seems that some of the best music I find
on the radio is at least twenty years old? -Hawk)

Best current TV show theme music
Pop/Rock singers and musicians as role models.
Some of us don't want to be. Some of us shouldn't be.
Stop tying to make us act as if we were!
"Sex sells."
Some things, but Pop music doesn't always seem to be one of them.
Music
People who put other people on pedestals
are usually disappointed.
Famous role models
Young celebrities to keep your eye on
Finding your "soul mate"
Be yourself. How do you expect to find each other if you're pretending to be something you're not?
People looking for a mate
might do better looking for a friend?
Women
Who shot JFK?
Watch the film in slow motion, then you figure it out.
If Daryl Hannah would have married JFK Jr. ...
... we're glad she didn't.
The Internet: "The Wild Wild Web"
...and let's keep it that way.
The Internet was originally for the free exchange of ideas and information.
So what's with all the %#@! pay sites?
Copyrights on web pages
Opinions
Sometimes voicing them can be dangerous.
Secret messages
can be anywhere, in anything.
The "best of..."
Preconceptions
are often misconceptions.
The Meaning Of Life
Many seem to think it's about getting more money and power than the other guy. We've got news for them, that's not what it's about. Maybe someday they will realize that, probably not, but that's their problem.
"Hind sight is 20/20."
Accountability
People are not always who, or what, they say they are.
especially on the Internet
People who don't like our opinion page
Well, that's there opinion, SO WHAT !!!!
People who try to tell you what to think
What do you think? (It's your brain, use it!)
As a society, perhaps we have became too tolerant?
If you actually survived and made it this far,
here's some of our 'gripes' about the Internet (and the computer in general)
