But I don't know where to start either. It is more important to speak truth than to be "politically correct." "Speak truth to power" I think it goes. <BR/><BR/>No, one doesn't personally criticize an individual on a blog - it's the wrong medium. That should be done to his face in a dark alley. <BR/><BR/>Now to go up one and talk a little about touching models.<BR/><BR/>-DonD.

I'm still your buddy! I've always loved it that you say what you think. But then, as you know, I look forward to the arguments we have when I come to visit. ;-) You're one of the only people I know who still has the stamina for a verbal jousting session.Grommitnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30786249.post-34147917116177735022007-04-17T14:05:00.000+01:002007-04-17T14:05:00.000+01:00Here here Lin, well said.Saintzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15414834038097721798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30786249.post-52114857390979487552007-04-17T13:09:00.000+01:002007-04-17T13:09:00.000+01:00iksodas.. hmmmm...<BR/><BR/>Except that my being true to myself and saying exactly what I think has historically resulted in my not having any friends to speak of !Richardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04449619427741048486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30786249.post-64188688334962003102007-04-17T12:58:00.000+01:002007-04-17T12:58:00.000+01:00Lin: <BR/><BR/>Ok, I'll agree, with your two rules, with one caveat: Don't judge poople publicly, such as your blog.<BR/><BR/>I definately disagree with your conclusion though. It has been my experience, that if you have to edit who you are to get along with someone, chances are that person was not worth knowing in the first place. <BR/><BR/>If you stay tru to who you are (and please include the dry wit, thank you) The chafe will settle from the wheat, and the circle of people worth knowing, and getting along with will emerge.Iksodashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01140054201777743207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30786249.post-44517816348301123532007-04-17T11:03:00.000+01:002007-04-17T11:03:00.000+01:00Couldn't have said it better myself!
