  • I think I would take home from your 2006 post - "It's all in the wording." Take a boring day and make it sound intriguing... that's what a good writer should be able to do!

  • Seriously, how do you make the links like that?

  • I enjoy your posts the way they are already written, but maybe that is because they are not so much stories as contemplations. I love that stuff.

    When telling stories, it's about adding details -- the things that make YOUR dinner so different from anyone else's; describing with word-pictures the idiosyncrasies of your friends; letting us experience a ride on the bus, with you. What you smell, hear and feel.

    I suck at all of these things, too. I'm working on it.

    Thanks for the reminder. : )

  • @yourkbear - Look on the right-hand side of your editor when you're writing an entry--there's a globe with what looks like two circles on it. Click that. It brings up a box; paste in your web-link or type it in there. You may have to have some text selected for it to work right. BTW, it's easiest to copy-paste using CTRL + C (to copy, hold both keys down while highlighting link) and paste using CTRL + V (to paste).

  • @GreekPhysique - I know how to copy and paste. lol

  • I bet if you marketed yourself on Xanga we'd have a lot of buyers. Hey that's a great idea! Let's have a Xanga bachelors auction! We can sell off an internet movie date complete with coinciding web cam.... with our most popular single guys donate the money to charity...

  • Thanks! Even if you don't post it- it's always good to have a list. 

  • @echois23 - You flatter me...and I thank you for it. But I don't want to be embarrassed when only a dollar is bid, ha. 

  • @GreekPhysique - I think you underestimate youself.... the combination of kindness and wisdom is nice is a man...

  • thanks for the comment. :) it seems like you might also have a bit less confidence than many people seem to. i think that's my problem too. i may not be "ugly", but i'm not confident that i'm attractive. oh well, i'm working on that.

  • You are hilarious. Really did brighten my hour. (To say my entire day would be an exaggeration.)

  • Dear Greek,

    Great idea for a "contest". Fantastic if the money you're awarding for prizes is yours. Too bad I'm an old man. I could be a teenager again rather easily. Really.

    I read the 2006 entry. I should do my wayback posts like this, with a link to the entry instead of just reposting the entry, but then I'd be afraid nobody would read it.

    I'm sure you've learned how to tell a tale much better than what you described a couple of years ago. Well, I'm off to go to work "with the ladies."

  • @baldmike2004 - HAHA! You got it, with the ladies indeed. Yes, it's my money--I figured I wanted to do something charitable, and this was a great way to do it.
