malamar Hi purplealabaster, Yeah, I hear what you are saying. It used to hurt my feelings real bad when I got almost no responses to a posting, but it doesn't bother me as much anymore. After all, there are so many posts, and so little time.... You are right...

malamar Sorry for the delay getting back to you zed. I have been busy lately and haven't had time to do any "fun" stuff for awhile. But, yeah, I agree it has sometimes seemed pretty quiet around here on the occasions I have been around. Even the notices in my in-box...

I believe all of us have what some call "gut" instincts. It is that little feeling within us that tells us we are about to make a good choice or a bad choice. Every time I have gone against that "gut" instinct,...

malamar I so agree with you Karen! If we learn to carefully (and honestly) learn to evaluate some of our life lessons, we will find we personally play a huge part in all of them. It is just so easy to lay blame on someone or something else, to avoid looking to...

malamar See, I have lightened up already. Now I don't care if it is one sentence, or none, or goofy.....I would call that going with the flow, wouldn't you? Just seems a shame to waste a good opportunity for some real dialogue between people, that's...

malamar Hey chrystaltears, how are you? Yeah, there was some fun happening there for awhile, wasn't there? Even when I have difficulty following some of the obvious "insider" banter, it is still fun and I like it. Catch you on the flip side, as well.

malamar Hi nijolechu I can live with short answers, I can live with goofy answers, and I can live with no answers at all. What I am questioning are the ones that are so far off topic that they are not on the same page at all.

I dropped by Wal-Mart today to pick a few things before going home from work. I was in a rush, because I had to get the kids from the babysitter's. Anyway, as I was going out, I heard a group of teenagers just outside the store...

malamar Thanks for your response maezee! That is my point exactly. I have tried so many times to reach out, and then....to receive the "friends" who turn out to be spammers or worse, YUK! On the flip side, there are some really cool people here, and I have been...

malamar Merlin, don't get me wrong here. Yes, I do understand we are all different and all trying to participate to the best of our abilities. It is not actually the "uninteresting" posts that I object to, but more the ones that just do not make sense. (Not the...

malamar Torunn, hey, hello there, it has been a long time! Thanks for dropping by, it is always good to see you. Yes you are probably right. In the long run, the boring, off topic, unimaginative answers will probably fade away on their own. Not that I can't be...

malamar Yeah? And I am a total dolt! Still looking for the "mature content" button so I can read all you dirty people posts! I hate that I am excluded from mature content 'cause I am too silly to find the magic button. Hey, I may not want to talk "dirty", but I...

malamar Donsky, I understand and accept diversity. I have absolutely no problem with other cultures, opinions, or fraility/difficuly with the English Language barriers. None, whatsover. In fact, in real life, I teach remedial reading. Lamb, how? How do you report...
