Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Holding back
My wife's birthday is about three weeks away, and her cousin's is on Christmas EVE - total rip-off on the presents. I should probably hit the sales, soon. Glad to hear you bought some art, too. Always a worthwhile purchase. Happy New Year!

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Holding back
The reality of my skiing is that I'm not as good as I once was, but I'm as good once, as I ever was, and because of that I have more time to spend doing other things. That translates into two days out of five skiing. So, the wife and I decided to spend a day walking around Aspen and visiting some of the art galleries as we've always wanted to do, sans kids. And really, some of the stuff is priced so high, that you don't really want to go in, unless it looks really interesting, or you feel they might have something you could afford to buy. It so happens that the first gallery we went into had some nice pieces. Of course the pricing was still a little too high, although we had a budget of around $2,000.00, so we weren't just only browsing. The asking price on the three pieces we wanted was around $3,500.00. We eventually settled on $2,450.00, and feel we really enhanced our little place out there.

Where any little point, or disagreement becomes the grounds for an argument, if she feels like arguing, which usually seems to be the case. And since you and Judy have asked for examples of her missing irony, it happened (particularly) in a post I made about Robin some time ago. My post was so outlandish that I was shocked anyone could have taken it seriously. But take it seriously she did, and I was then too embarrassed (for her) to point it out. Fortunately most everyone else got, and when it came up later in a discussion, I was quite relieved that the misconception could be finally cleared up. Since then there have been several other instances. But if you think I'm making it up, just disregard the comment as some kind of fabrication on my part. And sorry again for my misspellings. I was anxious to get out the door. The wife's birthday is on the fourth. Naturally she's felt cheated all her life by having her birthday so close to Christmas. But it sure made it easy finding something nice today at 50% off. Hi Steve, Thanks for responding although your first sentence might be a bit too haiku for my talents. I enjoy our exchanges, but it's back to the coal mines for me; forgive me if my responses are slow, its not for lack of interest in your views. What I see on FFL are a bunch of fried old boomer misogynists (Barry, Richard, Xeno), starting arguments with Judy that they can't finish; Judy then puts them out of their misery by making them stand in the corner for an afternoon, where they obsessively contemplate their blunders - telling themselves that: next time it will be different, only to find themselves back in the corner cooling there heels the next time they start an argument with her; its like watching Bjorn Borg dispatch Bobby Riggs in the movie Ground Hog Day. Why wouldn't Judy parse to win an argument someone else started with her, we all do that; have you not *analyzed and responded minutely* in this exchange? I believe it's standard practice for communicating on new media, and, IMO, a hell of a lot more suitable for chat rooms than Richard's incontinent polemics (at least some of Barry's and Shares mindless dribble would work on Twitter). It's interesting you pick something as dangerous and cute as a kitten as an analogy for Judy's aggression, I wonder if that doesn't point to a grudging respect that you'd be more open about if you're weren't *all in* in your defence of Share. Happy birthday to your wife - I would go with Ann's advice and stick to the small stores. All the best for your business in 2014 - hope you ride the year of the horse to the fulfillment of all your dreams.

Like Barry's lifestyle, Richard compulsively beats a drum most of us put away in our youth. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 1 Corinthians 13:11 (Does that sound like Lex Luthor to you?)

Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Holding back
Thanks Bob, I enjoyed your comments. And yes, I can't seem to make a post without some major typographical or spelling error. Sounds like a possible New Year's Resolution. (-: I like that image of the old boomers, standing in the corner etc., although I don't think I agree with it. Grudging respect for Judy? Sure. I like Judy and her smugness to some extent. Ok, I'm not sure how well it work in a long term relationship, but hell, only a few of us seemed paired up anyway. (-: Back to the coal mines? I'm feeling a little giddy right now. Almost got through my first day back. No major problems. Some decent business, and the hockey game tonight. Not bad. Even found a day's work for my 20 yr. old son who's going back to Colo tonight with a College group of friends. Yes, Colorado that is, after the first of the year. Oh God!

I've never even really cared what they said about you much because of the way you carry your enlightenment. While this place could certainly be so much more spiritually, the place is really not what it set out to be now and I appreciate your decision to vacate it. I notice you are very present over on Batgap.com and I will eventually follow you there. I will miss you here in the meantime. Have you found any other spiritual planets like the original FairfieldLife had set out to be on the internet? It is a shame Rick and the FFL moderators let it slide so bad the way it has. It does not seem that even the Yahoo-guidelines against unkindness as a form of absentee landlord can not even salvage the place. I do feel it was just bad upbringing on the part of some few entering the saloon who wrecked the place so bad. Bon Voyage. Send postcards when you can.
