Well I do thank you for your kind words but I have always had to balance my attitudes with people being for or against me. Guess my opinions and responses shine through eh far be it for me to say anything that would irritate anyone lol lol lol

But seriously I never try to make anyone afraid of me I am just too vehement in my 'causes'.

But time seems to pull some rather drastic things on us poor human beings that are sometimes so harsh that you have to yell and scream to be heard above the moneylenders. Moneylenders is the term I often use for big business and their offtimes ignorance of what they could do with their money to change the world of so many.

I almost cried today when I read of a very prominant man in Las Vegas who had this over one and a half million dollar painting and he tripped and put his elbow through it after just having been made an offer to buy it for almost three times what he paid for it.

The picture is so ugly to me that I think my great grandaughter could have drawn it and done it better.

Things llike thlis make me wonder where we are going to end up as to our values.This is one subject that I do rant on quite frequently.

You are a lot like me in that you can adjust to the loss of Braintalk and continue on here as if it was the same place and indeed in a way it is. the members are here and they are flocking here in droves.

The forums are getting down to their intended place in offering care and concern to each other. While I don't like the quantity of moderators they do tend to stay in the background and that is good. The one thing I find irritating is the moving of threads to different forums when they 'the mods' deem them to belong there.

They don't seem to take in that the josts are fine just where they are put.

The members have to decide if they want or need them to be where they are. Many members in all of the forums have varied from the mundane to the serious aspects of their lives to talk about and while it may seem about one thing it can be about something entirely different in the next couple of posts.

So Jo lets hear from you more often as I was really pleased to see this this morning and I am sorry it took me so long to respond to it. To day I haven't felt so good and while I know it is going to be this way it still gets to me.

When you need to tak to someone right away just go to any forum and read and let the problems of others take your personal pain away.

Feed off of each other and together we can face all that is thrown at us.

Take care of YOU and YOURS Jo and all else will just fall into it's rightfull place.

Wow you know that was my sig 7 years ago. You are right there as well I have been 'here' and 'there' forever.lol
