LOST & MISPLACED A2K people.

No, but I'll sure look the name up!
I was a painting fool in the early 2000's, was also remodelling my house, a lot of that by me, some with help; totally redoing my biggish garden including revising grading and drainage, co-owning a design business along with art gallery, including having hundreds of people into the gallery once a month. And, I was blabbering on a2k all that time, well, once a2k started.

So what - I think some of us probably have typing addictions (yes, even you). A need to express ourselves, come what may. Why I like it here.

my wife lets no one into her creative side. but she always seeks out my opinions of half done projects andoften we argue, but I have no hold on what she decides as the final products.

I was piloting a boat through some fairly tight waters last week and a half and I only posted once , where I called the boat a "pig". I was frustrated and in a coffee shop near the dock and sent a message because the entire area of Va had broad band using "white space" technology. It was amazing. I kept off the lines most all that time with only a note to family and one client.

It was great and very mind cleaning.All this kind of tippee typing communication makes one have little boxy thoughts and bumpr stickers of ideas. I started a painting on the boat by a sketch pad, Ive got an idea using ink, air brush and gold leaf an itll be a tryptich on a large board

Point taken.

I wonder if Frank keeps score of how many members he's gotten rid of.

To be fair, we got rid of Frank for a few years.

I'm positive me and Frank would be great pals IRL.
But here he was driving me bat **** so I had to switch his channel.

So I don't get edgar leaving to start not able 2 know on Facebook and sending his football picks through an intermediary.

Weird

I do.

I think it is sorrow.

I love him, unhappy he is gone.

I think youre right pan. The internet seems to expand our opinions and our phrases can be read many ways. Ive noticed several guys (me included) get a lot testy when we read a statement that the author meant to be taken another way.

You can solve the problem by not taking everything personally, which is after all the grown up adult way to do things. That seems to be to difficult for a lot of people around here to handle.

He does so because I sought him out and asked him to. I volunteered to
post the schedules on fb and put his responses up here.

I have to admit that, with a pulse, I have a heart.
Perhaps youve heard of such things.

"getting personal" is wjhere it always seems to go on both sides. Your very admonition to me is cast as a snidely one, dont you agree?

Don't be too hard on him, he's just trying to get noticed. He's had a very hard week where he's been made to look very stupid.

i don't see it as snide, hawk and i agree on a few things and this is one of them, it's all just words on a screen and you can't take them to heart or it can eat you up

the world would be easier for everyone if they treated the internet as water and themselves as a ducks back

Where? I have actually not been posting a lot (for me) lately, I am writing a book, but I dont recall any instances of me looking foolish.

hmmm. 'I'm writing a book'. 'I'm a zen master'. I think Izzy's on to something.

Oh. Edgar left? I knew he started the Facebook group. I must have missed stuff. Well, I guess I'm hardly here.

I really miss folk like you Pan!

I get that George. You're a jewel on this site and a kind and generous poster.

<blush>

I don't get why people are against facebook. It's a tool of communication like everything else. You can go there and only add a2k members and do the same as you do here, with the exception that you don't invite everyone to be part of your group. That's all.

In many ways facebook is better as you don't have the constant bickering and endless fighting.

I think it's because they don't know how to use it.
Same goes for A2K. If you know how to use it it's a blast.

I see plenty of that.
I use both to communicate with my friends
