RE: Judge not Lest You be Judged.

Leo, she didn't say you were a game player, she referred to a game you play, a part, a role you display often here. She wants to see people be strong; she's a healer, remember. You can take anything she says, no matter how harsh it may seem, in that light.

And you do play it up, Leo, don't you?

RE: Withdrawing From People

Some folks withdraw so much that they remove their profiles!

What's up, Leo? Other guys get too jealoous of you and threaten you? (just kidding). But how can I send you this French wine that's accumulating here? Are you just being 'Cautious'?

RE: Someone called me a "player"...??

Sounds as if this 'individual' could be playing YOU with this kind of tactic. Otherwise, by 'his'definition, who here ISN'T a 'player'? We all contact one another, sometimes more playfully than others, but not 'seriously'. Threads and emails of exchange aren't grave commitments. Anyone I'm 'serious' about knows it, and even that can be 'serious' in different ways. There's 'buddies' and pure respect, too.

I don't consider Anita a player.

RE: Want Hugs From .......

Hope you're not hung over now, Leo. Have a good day.

Greetings from sunlit Paris!

RE: Has Anyone Being To Oregan on the Coast

I have always thought this character is someone's idea of a joke, and now I know it. Certainly, if your interested in Oregon, you can spell it. And the idea of being in such a dramatically beautiful place and renting a dune buggy to speed through it is absurd.

It is a lovely state with great people. Visit it if you get the chance.

Forget the dune buggy!

RE: It's Friday! Wishing everyone a good weekend.

I propose that we turn things around and have five day weekends and two day workweeks.

Whadyathink?

RE: Ever turn down

Only been overtly proposed to once. Perhaps I should have said no. Life leads us where it will.

RE: Have you ever experienced near death, and seen

Funny what scares some people when other things go unmentioned.

Never seen any tunnels, but I have laughed as I slid over a cliff or hung from one crampon on a sheer ice face. Such a silly way to die!

But I agree that 'death' is just an expression for something we know nothing of. Do we know what 'life' is? I don't mean living, but what the 'thing', 'force' is that we call 'life'?

RE: ~ S L O W ~~~ D O W N ! ~

Must have missed this, Abra. It is nicely stated and appropriate in a non-specific way to all. I'll personally take it to heart.

RE: WHO IS YOUR HERO?

For those of you who would like to know, there is a true hero in this very group. I will not embarass that person, but if you look up the word in the dictionary, that person's picture is there.

RE: WHO IS YOUR HERO?

A wise person said that recognizing a hero, or anyone you admire, is recognizing part of yourself.

RE: Go with the flow

THAT was funny!

RE: Go with the flow

Then YOU must be schiz, too, talking to two people about people they don't know.

You may be a candidate for therapy, but I don't know if it's Wave or Alex, or neither.

RE: Go with the flow

Not possible; I don't know Jack.

RE: IF A WOMAN WAS PRESIDENT WHAT WOULD MISSLES BE SHAPED LIKE?

I would hope they would be shaped like ploughshares and pruning hooks.

RE: HOPE IS A TORCH, THE MORE YOU HAVE THE BRIGHTER YOUR WORLD WILL BE

Well, gotta hold on tight to avoid getting bucked off!

Besides, Rome was REAL bright after Nero carried his torch through.


For a little while!

RE: Go with the flow

You use the plural! How did you know I was schizophrenic?

RE: Ever turn down

The guy at the bar is a special case. That's a proposition, not a proposal (I think, but what do I know?).

RE: HOPE IS A TORCH, THE MORE YOU HAVE THE BRIGHTER YOUR WORLD WILL BE

Yeah, good thing to have both hands free.

RE: Go with the flow

For some reason, today the image I get of 'going with the flow' is a toilet being flushed.

RE: HOPE IS A TORCH, THE MORE YOU HAVE THE BRIGHTER YOUR WORLD WILL BE

Be careful with torches.

One can set unexpected fires.

RE: If You Ruled the World, What's the 1 Thing You'd Change?

I'd try to put an end to ruling.

RE: Go with the flow

What, me think?

RE: Can you really love someone here??

Anything can happen, I suppose, and it's all unique for each person, or couple.

Good luck (if that's the right word).

RE: What Intimidates You?

Being in the presence of towering intelligence (thus, feeling stupid).

RE: Huge problem

Well, looks as if you've gotten very good advice here. Consider yourself lucky to be out of such an environment. It can't have been so sudden that it was not already uncomfortable. Better to be ill at ease and searching than ill at ease and aimless.

RE: Can you really love someone here??

WAH! I want coffee with Alex, too! (lower lip sticking out like a Ubangi (sp?)).

But I think what Alex is sharing with you is sage advice. Could it happen (love) like this? Perhaps. Probability is low, though. Be careful, not just for you but for the other. Hollywood has done us many dis-services!

RE: Huge problem

Whose house?

RE: The Not So Bad

I'm not going to pinch myself. If you want to know if I'm real, ask Alex!

RE: The Not So Bad

Sane?

You mean you didn't notice I'd posted?
