Yeah, amazing how sometimes manners have been lost over the years.

Not every younger person is rude. Not every old fart has massive amounts of ear hair! :)

Key word was "sometimes". I have met many younger people with very good manners. In fact I think I have met more good than bad.

Let's see a photo of one, I'll believe it when I see it.

It freaked me out and I didn't understand what the lady barber meant when I first heard the words "do you want me to trim the eye brows"...knew then I was getting old, looked like Jack Elim...I always thought he looked kinda sexy.

reminded me of something:

a few years ago, i was taking some college classes with a woman from new england. she commented that southern women were all the time saying "i'm sorry" in situations where she would not. i had never noticed such a thing, so i started paying attention in the grocery store to other's behavior and my own. like a good southerner, i found myself saying "i'm sorry" ...
when i need to move my buggy to the side to let someone pass
when i need someone else to move their buggy to let me pass
when i want to turn down an aisle just as someone else is exiting the aisle
when i'm exiting an aisle while someone is turning in
when i and someone else reach for something at the same time in the same area

sometimes we say 'excuse me'. "i'm sorry" is a southernism that serves the same purpose.

Here's a question - When was the last time you sent an actual thank you card? Or, other card (birthday, etc) instead of an email? It astounds me when people are shocked that I still send thank you cards (my grandmother instilled that in me at a very young age). I also hold the door open for others (gender doesn't matter) and say "please" and "thank you" all the time. These are some of the things my grandmother taught me to do at a young age and they are just ingrained... She passed away many years ago, but I know if I forget, she will still find a way to grab me by my ear!:eek:

That is awesome and sad at the same time... Awesome because you expressed your thanks. Sad because it was their first thank you card. The art of letter writing should not be lost! I still have cards my mom and my grandparents gave me. I don't keep much, but those cards are nice to look at when I am missing them. :)

Ha ha - Good answer! :D

The tater machine USED TO hold mashed potatoes. People would come in and fill a bowl. It was for eating (I would not recommend that now!). It is so dirty because it got clogged... Then, Taylor Swift climbed up in the machine one night (apparently the guys were drinking with her and things may...or may not have...got out of hand). I have no idea if she is still in there. However, her manager seems to be looking for her and we do not want the trail cops coming in the cafe looking for her. Holy cow! Rasty keeps the kitchen clean, but I am pretty sure the skewered shelter mice on a stick are a health code violation.

The tater machine can only be cleaned by the Local 81 Tater Machine Union. They have not showed up since 2012. Don't worry the taters won't kill you!

No health code violation if a Vet inspects them and they are cooked to 155 degrees.

The thought of this George on the trail makes me laugh. That would make for some great entertainment! Elaine would have a super gucci tent and would probably be chasing some guy up the trail (while Jerry tells her that method will never work).

HM, I don't know (and don't want to know) just what happened between you and Rasty, although I am aware it flared up on my "life after WB" thread, resulting in your exit from the cafe. I DO know, however, that people here missed you. If you and Rasty were face-to-face, I'm pretty sure you'd both be okay with each other. Instead of ignoring each other, maybe just take a few steps back... and don't be in each other's face about it.

Yesterday. Along with a basket with a couple of jars of homemade canned goods (one apple butter and one blackcap jam, if I recalll correctly). Now get off my lawn!

Oops! Sorry about that! It just looked so green and nice... Couldn't help it if me and 30 of my closest friends thought your lawn was a park. :D I thought this would be a nice place to set up my tent (*said while wandering through the flower garden)...

I'm sorry if I told you how to think or feel in the past. I will not do that anymore.. I'm sorry.

I don't think you handled the problem between us very well at all. I would have liked to talked to you about it in PM but that never happened. If you want me to put you on ignore I will and will actually ignore you from now on... I'm fine with that. I you don't want that, then accept my apology and we can move on....either way is fine with me.

Ha Ha!! I just got back from the gym... I'm on a natural high... I'm feeling really good!! :)

I am as whacky as the rest of you in here.:p I don't consider myself all that cute but heck ya... I'll take the compliments!! And THANK YOU!! ;)

I feel the same way about you guys too. I'm not just sayin it. "Cuteness" abounds with the boyzzz in here for sure!! I've met some of you in person and have seen pics... whoa!! :sun

The conflict isn't the problem here. It's all in the resolution of the conflict.:datzI'm not a "sweep in under the rug" kinda person. The first time- I went away- I tried to ignore it. No resolution. I came back. BOOM... I got hit again. I told Gator I wanted off the site. I wrote a PM to Rasty while I was waiting for Gator to ban me. I got nothing back. Gator got back with me... I can't be banned from the site. I did end up coming back.

I wanted to feel comfortable around Rasty again. I wanted to know that he's cool with me. We don't have to agree on any thing at all. Just the fact that he's cool with me, is good enough for me.

He just wants me to ignore him... I will. He's on ignore. That way if he says something snarky to me.. I won't see it. It works for me.

Do I feel bad about the loss of friendship? I sure do. I can't force him to like me again. I don't know what else to do??

Sorry to drag you guys into all of this... I cherished the friendship. I wanted it back. It's not working.

Out in the middle of the forum, for all to see, probably is not the best way to go about resolving whatever it is you want resolved... I mean, if you truly do not want someone to respond with a snarky comment (no snarkiness intended with this statement). This sounds like it is a matter that is best discussed in private.

If you truly want a friendship back, this probably is not the best way to do it. Try PMing him again. At least you will get to say what you need to say. It is up to Rasty if he wants to read it. At the end of the day, that is the best you can do.

Crow is only nasty because it eats carrion. Give crows a nice diet of worms and insects and we could make anything. The crows would be excellent stuffed with a sausage stuffing which would help cut the gamey taste.

It is obvious it is not fine and it is not over. From an outsider's perspective - Whatever this public thing is, it seems entirely one sided. If your PM didn't work...and your earlier post didn't work...then, it sounds to me like you have Rasty's answer.

My Dad's birthday fell on the 26th. We too had a few cakes to go along with dinner. My sister finally wound up being a vegetarian. I knew all along it was gonna happen one day because the only meat she would eat when she was younger was hot dogs. She would put them on to boil and about a half hour later they would be all but frying in the bottom of the pan. I would say, Sharon I think these hot dogs are done and she would look in the pan and say not yet, let them go. I knew right there and then one day she gonna be a vegetarian.

They have the hot air balloon festival in Albuquerque every year. The last time I thought about going hot air ballooning, was the year many of the balloons were pushed into the power lines because of the winds. That was a little off-putting, so I decided to wait on that one!
