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. ---

## Height: 5’5 or 6" Weight: classified Eyes: green, with a hint of gold Hair: red - the color of an Irish setter Age: 42 Heritage: Irish, child of immigrants Lives: San Francisco, California Married: once, but no more. There is a man… Children: no Pets: no - apartments are not a good place for pets Hobbies: reading, writing, research, editing. I love to dance, but it’s hard to find a good place any more. I like watching people and look for places that give me some variety. Strengths: Reasonable, usually logical, generous to a fault. I keep my temper. I give good advice because I usually just ask a lot of questions and let people draw their own conclusions. Weaknesses: worrying about how I appear, my weight, getting older - responding to peer pressure. Procrastination as a way to avoid failure. Not being willing to ask for help. Music: anything but modern jazz My Mantra: There is a way My Motto: If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you always got Words to live by: Most people are idiots = they can’t help it Words that might be on my tombstone: A generous woman. It will probably read: Did not live up to her potential The reason gentlemen prefer blondes is that there are not enough redheads to go around.
