Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share (MPSIMS)
#1

Okay, you lazy and/or paranoid members! Nothing drives me crazier than taking a peek at a person’s profile after reading something though provoking they may have posted and finding …“Seattle, WA” (Listen up, Frankie! :))
Tell us something about yourselves, people! We won’t stalk you…honest! I like to know something about the folks I chat with everyday here! Now get your collective butts over to your profile and give me some info!
I’m waiting!

And can it be that in a world so full and busy, the loss
of one weak creature makes a void in any heart, so
wide and deep that nothing but the width and depth
of vast eternity can fill it up!
-Charles Dickens “Dombey and Son”

If you are obsessed about some member, go read all their posts.Search under their name, say last 30 days. You’ll get some idea.If people post long enough, you’ll form some mental picture of them. I get confused with a few similar sounding names. Try using unique names. I offered “Global Village Idiot” once for any takers.

#9

Okay, BunnyGirl, I nominate you to grade all 2000 and some members on their profiles and report back to us here. :wink:
