Blame the avatar for the first impression of "sweetness"...You've become a tad less tonight, thank you very much... I actually try to picture you as a 300 black woman with a perpetually half finished Colt 45 brewski on a TV tray and Marlboro burning away next to ya... Just keeping my stereotyping in check... the rest I just call as I think I see...

Oh, yeah, the avatar!

Man, you better hope we never meet in 3D if that's the image you want to have of me. . .ok ok I'll try really hard not to mention that the avatar looks frighteningly similar to me in real life.

Then again, next time one of my friends chuckles and tells me how "cute" I am, I'll give 'em your description of me. I enjoyed it. Should have them rolling on the floor instantaneously.

I picture you looking like your avatar, fwiw.

But the mental picture I like to have of myself is of a 6.5 foot tall, 300 pound hairy muscle man with tatoos all over my arms and back. And nothing could be further from the actuality.

I was just thinking about the Tony Horton thread... so I looked it up and skimmed it.

If anyone else feels like they wanted to do the same feel free. It was a good reminder- Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

When dealing with people who are homophobic keep in mind that there is more to the story. Tony seemed like he was just homophobic and ignorant, but after hours of talking we began to realize that he was deepily troubled and struggling greatly with what was going on in his life.

I wonder how Awediot is doing??

Wise words Jen.

Awe comes by and reads forums from time to time - I presume, since I see his screen name logged in some times.
I liked his presence and appreciated his posts. Would enjoy hearing from him now and then. We're a bit tame for him, I suspect.

For a long time he was definately one of my favorite forum members, he added a lot to these forums!

Right up there with Emproph, who we don't see enough of in my opinion. The man who single-handedly got me to Colorado for the 1000 Watt March! Then showed up to join me!!

There is always a lot of power to their posts!

I miss him too. I'd rather he were around, scolding me for not being loving enough than to not see him at all.

His posts always blew me away too.

BTW, I’m starting to recover from the stress of this past election cycle, so hopefully I’ll be chiming in more often.

In person, we only got to spend a couple hours together... but getting me to that protest is enough to make you one of my heroes! There was a lot going on and a lot of good memories that came from that day(for me at least).

I'm definately ready to see more of you around here!
