Josh also makes a good point about Apple computers. I work for Information Systems in an Enterprise environment with over 2 thousand computers; some are Macs, but most are Windows. The Macs just simply do not work in a network environment (with each other or Windows) and can almost never be fixed if one breaks. In addition, they are NOT more secure than a Windows box. In fact, it actually takes less time (as little as 2 seconds even when fully patched) for a hacker to take total control of a Mac because of some of the serious security issues. The majority of viruses are written for Windows because of its larger user base; if you are a hacker, you want to be able to control the most computers you can at once. Just keep in mind that there are many viruses written for Macs as well.

Keep up the good work, we love your show!

I agree with you that the primary factor in determining the faithfulness, success and accomplishments of children are the parents. Our God in heaven is certainly wise!

Re: the iPod Touch… My son knows of a couple of kids at school that have one, and he is dying to get one himself. He can’t wait to mow some lawns this summer for just that reason!

Erin, Jeff Smith and I go at each other regarding which computer operating system is preferable. But, it is all in fun… everyone knows that Windows is better!

I was disappointed that Larry was unable to co-host as normal, but I must say that the interview of the Locklair family was a pleasant treat.

I can very much relate to the Locklairs, as I, and my family were at Mr. Hannity’s first two live broadcasts in the DFW Metroplex! Having said that, I must say again as I said at the begining of this talkshow, you and Larry have Rush, Sean, and all others beat. I believe you have all other shows beat because you do one thing that nobody else does, and that is you guys look at the issues of the week in light of the word of God. That my friends is unbeatable!

I do want to comment on the question that you presented to the Locklairs on the social aspect of homeschooling. Just yesterday, my brother, cousin, and I were able to discuss this very topic with a friend.

Does anybody remember those quiet kids in school who were shy, and never talked to anybody? Well, there are those in the homeschooling realm just like that. I, like most homeschoolers have no problem striking a conversation with anyone from six years old, to nintysix. I actualy have (when people find out that I was homeschooled) been accused of being “normal”.

One thing that I have noticed is that the children of good christian men and women, whether schooled publicly, or at home are pretty much the same. I know this to be true because I know where I, my siblings, my cousin, all of my dearest friends (whom attended public school), Larry’s children (whom I barely remember from Haltom City), and your children (whom I have met briefly) are at in the Lord. This is because you the parent put God first in both your life, and the childs, and stay eternaly active with them as well. This I am ever thankful for.

I have been dying to tell you Stan that the only way I get to listen to the show is on my iPod Touch, which may be Apples best product ever. ;) However to Erin (Larry’s daughter, your foremost opponent in this realm), I dread seeing any Apple computer at work. When trying to use any of my equipment at work with them, I have to change so many settings for each it’s not even funny. Then its a matter of if you have the right adapter to connect the two pieces. So Apple is something that is both good, and bad to me. ;)

Keep up the good work y’all!

Josh
