This is one of those blogs where I will spread my fairy dusts of thank you's and gush all over the page!  If you don't like gushing......

And one more thing before I begin to gush, I'm really tired of pre-facing anything I wrote with all these types of "if you don't like" or "just because I said blah doesn't mean blah blah..." comments. Aren't you?!

Now on to the gushing!

1.  Take an interest in other people.  I know you have the MOST fascinating life, and you tell a story SO well, but seriously, drop a comment or some karma on some motivators*. 

2.  If you don't know anything about something, stop pretending like you do.  Remember the saying (attributed to many, but rooted in the Bible), "Better to be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt". 

On the topic of abortion, I am notoriously hostile to men. ...

I'm planning imaginary vacations.  I need something to look forward to.  I may not be able to take my imaginary trips for a few years but sometimes it's fun just to dream.  So my theme for this Friday Five will be vacations.

1.  If you could take a one-month trip anywhere in the world and money were not a consideration, where would you go?  Name your top three destinations.

    Everyone seems to think that I should change. I ain't gonna change. I write how I write. If you people think I'm narrow minded, it's because I am. I know only one way of life, if you wanna expound, start discussing it in the comments. Don't gimme any crap about "Oh, you write 80 articles a day and none of them are good". I'm trying to start an honest, on-topic discussion of serious real-life issues, and you complain because one of your articles gets pushed out of the recent ar...

But man oh man, I HATE it when done with blatant, arrogant disregard for other users.  Almost as if TRYING to annoy, living to do it actually.

It's one thing to write several articles about different things in one day...but to take what is essentially a "what I believe" article and ...

Cool.

Lets test it.  Whenever you see a comment by me, hit that thumbs up button...and lets see if my Karma gets any better....hahahahaha.

Loving the upgrade to the forums....
