She is so reasonable and a super-duper Bash Facilitator. BTW to me, tocks in this situation means graceful.

Originally Posted By peeaanuut <<they cut off the t as it didn't fit>> if you hadnt put the L in there, the T would have fit..... =) Spelling errors have a way of sticking around here. So dont feel bad if everyone says that thier topic is more implortan than others.
Originally Posted By trailsend Well, joe. I must tell you I have thoroughly enjoyed your posts. I have enjoyed the conversation you have brought out in others. I admire your tenacity and not being intimidated. I, too, came on LP with blazing fire. And regardless of what veteran LP'ers say, if a 'newbie' differs in opinion, life can be rough. You are accused of unflattering positions and there is a "gang-like" (sorry, really, I'm just trying to be honest) assault. It can be very hurtful. That might also be the difference between the reaction of a male and female. (I'm female) You find yourself out on a limb and suddenly you have a bright red "A", or in this case "C" or "R" on your chest. Everytime your screenname shows up, you wonder if this is really a Disney site. LP has been a learning experience for me. I'll answer your question like this: Should we try so hard to persuade others to our points of view?? Well, for me, I am not going to change my point of view. So how can I really expect to change someone else's? However, I do enjoy hearing both sides. So I think there is a fine line to how you present a point of view. And it depends on personality. Some LP'ers can post once every blue moon and their words are like Scripture. No one questions them, makes any odd or deragatory comments at them; they live the good life of LP. For what it's worth, Joe, I hope you don't change. I hope you keep right on pluggin'. It's worth the read. ºOº

LSS long story short, she took no prisoners and I'm the only person she met who was more of a female rights person than she was. Hence my talking about my shift in the abortion issue as being a big step for me. I also confess that I'm desperately trying to remember if I didn't treat you like a lady. Me the feminist, and I have this old fashioned treat a woman like a lady thing. Sorry for driveling but thanks for the comments and I will try to dial it down as Pass put it
Originally Posted By trailsend You have always been a gentleman with me, joe. And I know gentlemen; I'm southern. Do you recognize Trailsend? Being you are a WDW fan, it's one of the best restaurants in Ft Wilderness or all of WDW, for that matter. And Ft Wilderness is next to my heart. I love it.

I've been feverishly checking through hundreds of posts for the last half hour seeing how I posted with you. I'm so embarrassed and it goes to show you, Mr Sensitive me has to be more vigilant. I can't believe you mentioned the woman thing and I freaked right out as I have been doing the anonymous road rage thing myself as much as I hate to admit it. I've never given the finger,etc on the road so for now on I'll take the abuse and not give finger i.e. abuse back. Thanks for inadvertently making me more of a gentleman even though you did not mean to. Not to be too personal but what state do you live in FL?

Of course a few posters have come on here and never posted a disney thing and seem to hang out in one section. Me personally I dont post any Disney stuff anymore. I was drawn here for Disney, but since I dont have a pass anymore its pretty much left my mind. Of course I still feel welcome here (I hope) and am very comfortable posting here. So mainly I hang out in Community, General Entertainment and WE. Of course I venture out. Just a few more thoughts. Ill tell ya though, I am in a rare good mood today. Ill have to figure out what brought me to this and keep doing it. =)
