If it has been a really, really, long, time since you have done something you become a Virgin again. "They" say it grows back...your virgin status...like golf for me...

I just remembered I have a virgin, unopened, 2008 Mah Jongg card.
Must admit I wish I would have used it by now. HB |

I'm going to stick F-16's head in the toilet at Crispers next luncheon. Bearfart indeed.

GG, I don't think it will be on CNN as she won't be reporting on this incident!!
Chels and I will be in the bathroom with F16. Chels will be holding his head in the toilet and I'll be flushing. You'll be able to hear him over the sound of the water saying "Sorry Bearfart".

I just looked at the helping hands thread. I can't believe how it got hijacked. It went from being something good and noble to a free for all. I am finished with it.
It bears no resemblance to the original intent and I think that is a shame. It is now trivialized. Yuck.

I am about to be finished with TOTV. I am so discouraged. I liked it here because people were my age.

Wrong Person Blamed.
awwww, Gracie, I think MOST of us are about the same age. Please don't be discouraged. Hopefully the children will find people their own age to play with.
Sammie, you had good intent, then we followed suit. I don't blame you for being upset. Many of us volunteered because of the basic plan you put forth. I remember the day this all came together. We were all of pm'ing each other back and forth and it was a wonderful feeling. If someone wanted to start another kind of thread, they should have and not bastardized Helping Hands. Just to help someone move is ludicrous. As I stated earlier, we would be swamped with requests and then fall into the moving business. Everyone wants help with that! And as Johnny rightfully pointed out, there could be liabilities attached to the heavy lifting of boxes or breaking someone's items. I think the admins were very heavy-handed in this situation. They deleted threads and they blamed one person, Bright, and THAT IS THE WRONG PERSON! Cassie, hit me with your best shot because I'm really p.o'ed over this. Let's see how long this posts stays up!

Bright is just that. She is bright and a Brightspot in my life. She calls things as she sees them and I love that about her. She doesn't play games.
I hope TOTV does not become like The Sun......

Helping Hands debacle
Tony, Bright, Gracie, Johnny, Chels, Sam, Bare, all helping hands originators, .....I posted my feelings yesterday and thought long and hard about a peaceful end, on both sides. I recieved thank-you's from both sides. I rationalized the debacle and posted with much thought. I was shocked to see my post removed. The basic reason this all fell apart is the forum chosen. Maybe TOTV is changing. Helping Hands is not for moveing people in. Deleting certain peoples opinion posts is disheartening to say the least. I know. My peaceful, rational post was deleted. The folks whose posts were deleted feel betrayed. They are good people making a statement most agreed with. Guess we will stay clear of the forums, what a shame!! You may lose all your top posters.

My uncontroversial post was removed. Yet I have had my heart warmed a couple of times by people who were new to TV who said my straightforward and honest posts helped them choose this place to live.
I am so dismayed. We as seniors wouldn't go to a college blog and try to be a part of things. Nothing wrong with them. Nothing wrong with us. Our age brings issues only our age understands. This will be removed too, I guess. Then I am gone for good. Last edited by graciegirl; 10-08-2008 at 01:13 PM. |

Obviously a lot us are feeling the same .... pretty unsettled, frustrated and unhappy at the way TOTV is trending. Censorship is being directed at the wrong people IMHO. It is just a darn shame.

IMHO...
* cencorship is wrong no matter why. * individuals will have differing opinions... * when it gets contentious that is unfortuate but not grounds for deleting posts. * Let's try to be kind and agree to disagree
