Oh and the last quote I put out there was by Heraclitus

JJ

The depth of knowledge displayed here just blows me away. I'm really enjoying every quote your writing.

If I offended anyone or cut off discussion, that was not my intention. I reacted strongly to what someone said because it was a gut, emotional reaction. It was never my intention to cut off discussion, and I'm sorry if anyone thought that.

JJ,you can answer whatever you want. You can answer the things I put out there if you want. You can ignore them if you want. It's all up to you. You're a smart lady. You decide.

Did I miss something here? Who mentioned anything about houses burning, thought we were fixing roofs or at least talking about it? Oh and as the resident animal expert, an Ostrich would never suffocate with its head in the sand. They are quite clever birds. Okay smartie pants JJ see if you or anyone can guess this one:

There are two ways of exerting one's strength,
one is pushing down, the other is pulling up..

Jackie,
I don't think you offended anyone in the least! How could you? No way girlfriend... This is suppose to be an open board and anyone can participate.

And Vi, I was asking if you wanted discussion, or if you were asking these things in response to another post. I didn't want to cut YOURS off. No need to get snippy about it.


Chatty, my answer is Booker T. Washington.

Doggone it JJ you are a smart lady, you got it and that blows me away. There is quite a brain under all that pretty red hair....NHJackie you're a doll and couldn't be anything else.

Aw, you ladies are gonna make me cry. I was accused in another place (not here in Boomerland) of always having to have the last word and cutting off any discussion that didn't go the way I wanted. It was a big blow to my self esteem. I ended up dropping out of the group and nobody came to my defense. So I started to think maybe that person was right.

Sometimes my approval addiction rears its ugly head and I have to beat it back into submission.

I'm no dummy myself, but Vi, I have no idea what you are talking about either. Nor, could I get onto that website LB mentioned without giving them information that I didn't choose to give out. (I don't sign onto stuff like that.)

I'm also asking, are those questions for one person in particular or is it for the group? It appeared to be private, which is fine. Just clarify please. If it is for the group, it has lost something somewhere along the line. What house is burning? Of course, I'd grab my purse, my jewelry, my kids pictures off the wall and run like hell if the house was on fire, but I don't know why an ostrich puts his fool head in the sand and I don't really care about that one. Sorry Chatty, didn't mean to insult ostriches.
