Can I write an OPUS for you? And what happened to all of your raging friends who were going to quit and write OPUS's?
You must have me confused with someone else.
Amen brother, alot of crazy uncles.
No need to be sorry.
Thank you for your expressed condolences.
I am touchy about pro-death types.
They do not understand the concept of a person.
Where a person was in my life, will always be a hole.
But I will cherish those years no matter how long or short my life will be.
Those who would steal years and memories from others should feel condemnation and be outcasts.
And rightfully so.
Again, thank you.
Why you are a very erudite a'hole.
Semper Fi
You're welcome. And after I read your comment, I understood why you've taken the position that you have. And I agree. Every child is precious and I know that people that have more than one child feel that they are all equally valuable. But for people like us, the parent-child relationship is especially intense because our children are our only ones.
(I'm getting ready to cry here and I'm not typically a weepy woman.)
Today especially has been bad.
No need to apologise for getting weepy.
I have my daughter's choker necklace, and keep it with me all the time.
I get a touch of sniffles when I think of her.
She's been in the forefront of my mind more often lately.
The memories are warm and fond, but bittersweet.
I'm starting to ramble.
Forgive me my rambling this evening, please.
Ramble all you want to. There's no need to apologize. I'm sure that all of this talk about Terri has been painful for you. I wish that people could have been more thoughtful and sensitive in their posts.
Yeah, I'd do anything to have my daughter back for just five minutes.
And there are people willing to throw other people's lives away over 'parameters' and 'definitions.'
Completely incomprehensible to me.
I know. I don't understand it either. I'd do anything, and I mean anything, to save my daughter's life. The Schindlers exercised tremendous restraint as far as I'm concerned. (And I'm not advocating violence against Michael. I just don't know if I could have handled things as well as the Schindlers did.)
Regarding your daughter...I believe that she's still with you.
I did not know..I am so very sorry, (((((((((Darksheare))))))))))
Hmmm.
Anyway of getting that darn churn rate reduced?
While at the same time accelerating the troll turnover?
(I'm ambivalent about the one-liners.)
Neppers.
No more delusional than a non-opus vanity or, for that matter, a comment.
Just trees falling in a forest, at different angles.
Who cares?
Anyone who wants to.
Like you. And me.
How do you distinguish between "honest" disagreement and gratuitous division-mongering?
You've discounted sign-up papers . . .
So how about dweller spelling?
I am speaking DUers that brag about what they do over here..Did you see the post I answered?
It was a link to a DU thread..I have watched a stealth troll for months before..and suddenly they reveal themselves to all..It isn't enough at first to pin them on it..and I usually catch on at their first attempts to sound "conservative,but" It's tough to catch most of the good stealth trolls.
Dweller spelling is for the real losers...too obvious and outrageous..They hit and run. Some re sign up and ask why they were banned..and one such thread turned into a 60,000 post Zot thread..the Undead Thread.
Who are the nutters?
Those who said that Jeb Bush is guilty of murder.
Those who accuse the President of desiring illegal immigrants.
Those who are convinced that the President is in collusion with Bill Clinton.
I could give more examples, but I don't want to waste the time on such a sad day.
I've only been here for about six months and I see a lot of 'tow the line lock step mentality' displayed by a number of FReepers - Many of them long time members who somehow feel that they have the right to tell others just what a good conservative should think and how they should post.
I suppose you would disapprove of me, calling me a 'Nutter' because I disagree with the Presidents stance on Immigration. Likewise, you and many long term FReepers would undoubtedly dislike my stance on the Schiavo matter as well. I could go on and on but I can tell you, from my perspective, a conservative but not Partisan Zealot who places principle over partisanship would appear likely to be flamed by many here, especially those who have staked out some kind of ownership over the thought and posting processes at FR. I've both seen it and experienced it first hand.
Talk about eating each other. At times this place puts DU to shame on that score.
A 'nutter' is signing off for awhile here. Hope you all enjoy your exclusive party.
Long see and no time, or something like that. After all, no one ever called me the craftiest troll under the bridge.:)
I'm not thinking about going to another party, just not being affiliated with the GOP :\
See how dumb I am. I can't figure out your sentence. You're not giving up partying, but it can't be with Republicans?:D
Damn, some days I miss the old days - but fortunately those days are very few.
Best regards, and don't be such a stranger!
Well as a Christian prophecy nut, I often say things that are considered extreem, but figure even though I am in a minority, the fact I am right makes it worth it. -grin-
Seriously, the voice of reason stands out best in a sea of chaos. It does not take much light to dispel the darkness, yet a room full of dark never put out a candle.
Your voice and opinion is needed most when it gets wilder, please re-consider. Jim and the gang have not changed their stripes, the country over all is. Here is where the anchor is set, stay and help hold the anchor.
Blessings!
