No actually you are right and I'll twist nothing. I didn't contribute a lot in those days because I ACTUALLY WORKED a 12 hour day and truthfully, I wasn't all that interested in all the fighting that was also going on with you and the others. I didn't agree with all of your posts then either but after all you are entitled to your opinion. Reading posts all day didn't come into, however I can now if I want. To me being right all the time wasn't important. I agree with you that there were some very harsh posts and you were right in there with the best of them thumping away. My weekends were usually spent at Bright with Jan and maybe some friends at the van. I also ran our drafting office and our building company after hours so no, I had much more pressing things on my mind then. There were not enough hours in my day to get that involved. That was my life, my job, it was reality. No "feartie" as you put it. That never came into it. I'd just keep out of it if I couldn't add anything constructive without abuse. So yes, I now probably do contribute more inane, monotonous, xenophobic posts. Be assured there's a xenophobe in all of us to a degree. No yapping dog syndrome though. As I said before, sometimes a bit of pub type banter is fine. There's plenty arguing and debating going on elsewhere, I've checked it out and it's not for me. The aggro there is shocking , a bit like before. Tell me, why do you feel the need to be like this all the time? This is just an outlet for some of us. We chat, exchange views occasionally and we actually don't get paid to tap away during the day. Our lives don't depend on who we insult or impress today. Get over it. I can see you're still in that zone. Whatever it is that WE (emphasising not screaming) get out of it why don't you just let us enjoy it without telling us all the time you're smarter, brighter and we're no competition for you because we aren't fighting you or debating you on that either. We don't need to. It doesn't seem to be as important to us to prove ourselves as it does to you. I'm sure they see me for exactly who and what I am as they do you.

With regards to a previous post of yours, if Gilly or Dave want to post to me that's their business without that "can't you all see through her stuff". If Jack does too that's cool. The CDs I sent Dave is just because we have the same taste in music. The DVD he sent me is his wedding. I sent Mary a book to read once and she sent it back when she finished. Gilly has Dave's DVD and actually I've never sent Gilly anything. Jack sent through some music files of him singing , not a CD . I put it on a CD. Jack you will never win Idol but keep on singing anyway. What is wrong with that? There is no manipulation or money exchanged so what is there to see through? Dave could have said "LOADIESHITE "and I would have laughed. Some of it probably was. I know I sent you relaxation CD's years ago, 'The Secret Garden ' I think, when you were upset with all the crazy stuff. A journo on a site last week sent me some Wheatgrass Balm out of the blue. I didn't ask her too. I'm sure she's not trying to manipulate me either.
Mia get past this hatred of me, it's eating you up. Scream MANIPULATION till you're blue in the face.

I haven't seen you post anything all that interesting since you 've appeared again either. Just more 'attack the posts' stuff.

Jockney was good Mia and actually he used to give you a run for your money. You had a big trap at times. Still have.

A few posts back you claim that I've caused the demise of this board and now it's Dave. Are you contradicting yourself or is that both, or are you still undecided? It doesn't matter, it's just not a hotbed of abuse. I think Mary would have had a very different opinion a few years ago if she'd read some of your posts. I'm surprised you're still in one piece. Yes I did post an extremely hurtful post to you but you just push people too far Mia. It was rather insensitive of me. I regret that. The trouble is once it's said it's said. You know that saying, "You can't take back a spoken word" sadly that's true. You don't debate, you demand we all think like you and that won't happen either. Whether you agree with the post or not, don't attack the poster. Actually, Mary did contribute recently about the clone post and her post was thought provoking to say the least. It made me delve further but I'm still not sure. That's why I remember her post. Being a twin I'm still wondering about it. Good post Mary thanks
No grasping at straws either, you told me you stopped because of the threatening posts towards you.
Alarm bells are ringing once again. Mean what you say please!

Contrary to what you believe I really don't get any pleasure out of arguing with you or anyone. Anything I post will be not up to your standard. True to form you will come back with barbed comments and we will not move on. It's not my site and it's not yours so I can only ask you to disregard all my posts and read the others. I know from past experience that you can go on like this for ever but I'm fed up already and it's only been a few days. You used to go on like this for WEEKS on end so how can you say things were better? Reality check Mia, it wasn't good, it was mostly horrible. If you enjoy that kind of stuff your life must be full of angst.

I don't have a problem on here with anyone and never have had but feel free to continue trying to humiliate and belittle the posts. I couldn't care less . I may not have agreed with Gilly, Dave, BB or Jack but I never went for their throats either. I'm like Jack I usually just try to keep the peace contrary to your beliefs. From all the past years of posting, Pit Bull is your style not mine.

I still don't agree that Muslims have the right to come into ours schools and tell us not to sing Christmas Carols to their children or for that matter how to worship so as not to offend. We can sing what we like. It's Merry Christmas here not Happy Holidays. Why should we get like America? We let them worship Allah in peace and don't interfere so don't interfere with how we worship. I don't care if they are insulted . It's our culture and when we lose it we will have nothing left. There are mosques springing up all over the place down here . Now that you wouldn't do in their country. I still think that's fine. I'm not intolerant of any faith as long as they are tolerant of mine. The Buddhists around here are great and have open days and barbeques. We are all asked to join in. They teach us about their faith in the gentlest of ways. You don't see that stuck up in Queensland because we have them all. So my God is just as important to me to and after all we are all living in a Christian country, thank God. I don't worship the moon and the stars Mia. So you are wrong on many counts. You just can't always be right and I'll stress again, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

So take my advice and set up a blog then you get to be your own moderator. Then you CAN tell me what to post but until then.......

Anyway, I have to go as I'm busy today. It's Brendan's 36th birthday and there's a knock at the door. Maybe it's Satan coming to collect my soul.
