Yes, but she wouldn't hear it.

Some people are too eager to test the thinness of others' skin, imo. And when they offend, they always blame the one they offend for being too thin-skinned.

Here endeth the lesson.

So is that a no? Of course, your post is completely unfair. I want him to stop too, and I know I need to stop as well. I said all of us. Don't twist my words. if you want to keep things negative, then you will. I was asking if we could all--every one of us--stop picking at each other. Can you do tha...

Do you guys ever get tired of this shit? I know I'm one to talk, but I'm talking to myself as much as anyone right now. It would take all of us to stop at once, but what if we set a cease-fire date? How about April 2 (so no one will think it's an April Fool's joke) at 12 noon Greenwich Mean Time?

I always thought Helen Keller had a real pretty mouth.

Extreme Honey, please don't imagine my nocturnal habits anymore. It creeps me out.

Red shoes, that article is BRILLIANT.

I LOVE Bowie. LOVE. I'm such a Bowie geek that (as Otis will attest), I even get all geek about substandard stuff like Let's Dance (trhat wasn't a confession, by the way). I'm so pleased that he's done great work like Reality and Heathen recentlly. I still adore the Thin White Duke.

I think Being John Malkovich was the last decent film he made. It was 1999, though. He's made a lot of shit since then. I love the guy, which is why he disappoints me so much.
