Darned tootin', Thumper!

RE: anybody want to be a cowboy ?

No. I wanna be a cowgirl, and ride a cowboy, though.

RE: "haggis" mostly gets bad reviews lol

I've never tasted it yet, but I'd love to try it...Scottish blood in me, ya know.

RE: For all you Romeo's from the CS Ladies..

I'm so glad I watched to the end...I love the very last line as Dolly and Billy Ray are walking out of the "club".

RE: How many of you listen to internet radio in lew of a local station?

I listen to CDs on my stereo with a mix that I change out when I feel like it at home. In my car, I listen to a local station that I love with a good, eclectic mix. I've never listened to internet radio at all.

Thank you, GDM. It's an awesome spot that soothes my soul.

RE: If at first you dont succeed....

Good one, KMD!

RE: When Your The Lowest,How Do You Start Over?

Right. Stay positive, and you'll find that doors keep opening for you, Jonah.

RE: The most Beautiful......Thing

Thank you, ROS. I tried to find pictures of it to share...but I couldn't find the trail, just the cave. I'll have to take some and put them on my profile.

RE: Should we just give all the nuclear powers the green light to just go agead and nuke the planet?

Got to agree with you there, Anna!

RE: I've Never Been To Me ( Charlene )

So true, Voyager.

RE: hav you ever..

Nope...I just don't offer unwelcome visitors tea, or any other beverage, including cold water.

RE: suger1

Welcome to the nut house, Suger1! Join right in and have some fun!

RE: Should we just give all the nuclear powers the green light to just go agead and nuke the planet?

Was that like "nuc-nuc" from the Three Stooges?


Anyway, interesting response to this. I love it!

RE: Should we just give all the nuclear powers the green light to just go agead and nuke the planet?

Especially when it's "ditto" to an option that you didn't give as a choice, right, Zee?

Good to see you around, buddy!

RE: Randomly Post Anything That's On Your Mind.....

Hey, that sounds like fun, BB!

RE: Randomly Post Anything That's On Your Mind.....

I presume that's who she meant, and I haven't seen her on for a while either.

RE: WHAT PART OF YOUR BODY..

RE: CS viewing statistic

I was thinking that about 50% of the population of Malta probably has membership here.

RE: CS viewing statistic

And a very good point, Scuba.

RE: Should we just give all the nuclear powers the green light to just go agead and nuke the planet?

Ditto

RE: The most Beautiful......Thing

When I walk my favorite trail, and go to the cave at the end of it, it's like I've stepped into a world outside of this world, and time out of time. I walk through the lush greenery, and head to the cave where the sound of the waterfall trickling down can be heard, and I've entered another state of being. I sit in that cave and look out at the woods above my head, the waterfall cascading gently down, the creek in front of me...the beauty of nature surrounds me and feels surreal.

I walk that trail and sit in that cave at all times of year, in all weather, but the heart of summer is my favorite time, when all is so abundant there.

RE: threads~does the Op own a thread?? do they have the right to direct people around in it??

So true, Rohaan. One thing I hate most is when a thread is ruined by those who have to come in and vomit all over it and say how horrible it is, and then point out that they have the right to post wherever they want to...but if you read the rules, that sort of behavior is against the rules here.

If I don't like the title of a thread, I don't go into it. If I'm not sure and do go into it, and don't like the OP or don't like what's going on in it, I leave without saying anything. Nobody even knows I walked in the room. I have never seen the need to ruin a thread that others are enjoying just because I don't enjoy it...regardless of the subject matter.

I will, however, participate in a good debate if it's a topic I enjoy, but I disagree with the OP or a member's post...that's what debates are supposed to be all about, or discussions. And that is not what those I mentioned above are doing when they express such violent dislike for a topic that the ruin the fun of others.

Rarely, however, do I feel the need to report them...I just accept, sadly, that the thread that could have been fun was ruined, and go watch TV or read my textbooks...or go elsewhere.

RE: threads~does the Op own a thread?? do they have the right to direct people around in it??

Actually, members posting offensive things, especially if they're derogatory about the thread's subject matter is against rule #4 here...and if the member no longer has a profile here, they can't post any more. If they've hidden it, they can come out of hiding temporarily to play in the forums, and then go back into hiding, and that looks like they're posting when they no longer have a profile here.

As to owning a thread? No, the OP never owns a thread, but if one reads the rules, we are supposed to remain on topic. Not that it always happens, and threads do get derailed/hijacked, but it doesn't happen a lot...and it's usually all fun when it does.

RE: How would you go about ending a bad date?

I know, and I appreciate that. Thank you, My Friend. Your username is true.

And apparently, what some people don't care about is that everything they post is public, since this isn't a private forum. I've never let people like him get to me, though, and I won't start now. If he keeps posting things like that, he'll end up banned. His problem, not mine.

RE: How would you go about ending a bad date?

Ah, that would definitely be different. If it was someone like that, that I knew well and trusted, I'd end a bad date by just being honest with him...the friendship would be important to keep then, and this could just be something to laugh about in the future. And yes, in that case, he could pick me up on the first date.

RE: Is Anyone Serious Or Is This Just A Game To Everyone?

I've always loved Alice in Wonderland, Jack. Love that quote.

One thing I'll add to my previous comments...although I'm serious, I don't know that it will happen here on CS. I'm too open about my life in the forums here, and I'm not as active on any other forums, so I'd be more comfortable meeting someone from another site to date. I'd rather they get to know me now before they get to know my whole past...it's a lot to take in at once.

(Besides, how do I post about it if I'm dating someone from here? )

RE: Age, and getting set in our ways

Awesome post, HJ...and I feel the same. (This does go for women, too, after all. )

RE: Age, and getting set in our ways

Larry, you're correct in that statement about it being easier to find a match when we were younger. We had fewer preferences to match to then. Now, I've changed a lot as I've gotten older. Age, wisdom, a deepening of my spiritual beliefs, and a transmutation of my life...all of these have led to me having far different requirements than I did even five years ago, or three years ago. I know who I've become, and now I need someone who matches with that and can walk beside me for the rest of this journey...someone capable of growing and changing, and surviving pain with a positive attitude. Someone who lives a very healthy lifestyle, a holistic and green lifestyle, and shares very similar spiritual beliefs to mine. And I won't settle for less because I know I wouldn't be happy then.

RE: When is it ok to break a promise?

Very true, Anna. I don't make promises if I don't know for sure that I can keep them, thereby I make few of them. I will commit as far as "weather permitting" or "if I can then", or even "I truly hope we can do that."

If I don't make an absolute promise, then I don't have to break it if something happens to make me have to cancel on it.
