I hope I can get back into the community spirit, I really do. You never left it Sally babe. You'll always be part of the community spirit, regardless of the phases you go through. You leave an imprint in people's hearts everytime you blog, which is good stuf

I keep thinking about American Beauty, which I saw the other night, and was moved by such an enlightened film. Consider the following words, spoken from beyond the grave by Kevin Spacey’s character, who had just got shot dead by a frustrated neighbour, and had lived a mundane and ordinary life cooped up in a dead marriage for twenty-odd years: “I guess I

Little whip, I've just read your comments in Draginol's post, "You might be anti-American if...", and I was taken by your eloquence and intellect. The same goes for Steven, Sally, Mig and all

Hi Sally and Care, how are you doing? I hope you’ve had a good week. I would have written earlier but I really haven’t had the chance this week. “Care”? What a nice name! What’s is

Hi, I didn’t want to leave without saying bye bye. Thanks for having me on board for a while. It’s been a unique experience for me, and it’s great to find a place where people can share their thoughts and express their views unabashedly. I’ve loved meeting you people, and even though it’s time for me to go, I’ll definitely see you again in a better place. Remember there’s a real world out there, (

Hi, where did you both go? Looks like I really killed the thread this time. Was I being too dogmatic? Anyway, I hope all is well. I'll catch you soon, Andy

Sally sweetheart, are you still around? I hope to hear from you again. I’ve still got lots of stuff bubbling up inside me regarding this topic, so I can’t help but give vent to it on your thread. I hope you don’t mind, and that it’s not getting too boring. I’m excited

Hi, how are you doing? I hope all is well. It’s nice to see you back Sally. It’s a fascinating discussion this one, not everybody’s cup of tea, but we can carry it on until we’ve either had enough or got bored. Whether that’s tomorrow or next year for some, doesn’t really matter. We should trust ourselves … To be right b

Hi Crusader and Sally, How are things with you? I hope you’ve had a good week. I would’ve replied earlier, but I haven’t had the chance this week. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF39

I have a black-country accent I've just re-read that, and no, I'm not black. "Blackcountry" is a traditional name for the old coal mining and industry areas in the West Midlands, (just in case you wondered.)

Hi Sally and Crusader, I’ve just watched the Passion of the Christ, and was just about to write one more post, when I saw that you’ve kept the conversation going. Hooray!!

Hi Sally and Crusader, Are you waiting for me, or did I just kill the thread? Sorry about that. It’s the reason I usually keep this stuff to myself. It can get too deep and “weird” for normal conversation, and can begin to sound irrelevant. Some things are secret for a reason, I’m sure, and that’s the way it sho

To trust someone though, you give them a piece of you, and if they break that trust, they take it away. That's the way I see things. So I may be leeting them. Sally babe, there’s a deeper part of us that other people can’t take away, in my opinion, and that

I was with everything you was saying, until I read that (referring to my "Hitler is a simply a misguided or lost soul").

Hi, hope you’ve had a good week. Thanks so much for your comments. I have so much to say about all this, I hope I don’t go on too much or get boring. I want to have a go at answering, but
