there were times when gbnc used to be nk, ashu, ashu's friends-turned-foes, and a couple of others. sure, sally and biswa, one name i have come to revere over the last one year or so (just look at his postings to witness this man's versatility. cricket is just about the only subject i think he can't talk about with some depth, and thank goodness. he makes me feel so inadequate).
i am digressing, san, much like nk :) is there a way out where i could keep track of some posters and my own handful of postings? no offense meant to so many new and intelligent posters who have joined the fold (welcome aboard !!). but i m frankly losing track. can't help feeling nostalgic about the good ole days. say could inidividual posters create my kurakani for eg, etc?gbnc has been a great forum to exchange views and news and i would like to thank you once again there. but given its phenomenal growth since the royal massacre last year, it's time you helped posters regulate the ever growing traffic better. just my thoughts.

VillageVoice, I am overwhelmed as you are with the postings even though I am rookie myself here and almost thought in same direction as you are thinking.
But, after reading your posting and thinking a bit, I think I don't want to support this idea because it is 'segregation' in itself and then again it won't be as much of 'fun' because the en mass did not read it. Then only handful will read handful of the postings. But, posting to bigger mass will give great satisfaction to the posters and serves the purpose knowing that your postings are read by many and thanks to San for putting the counter in the threads.
Also did you notice when an interesting posting shows up (may be after long time), all of the older timers like you jump in, showing all of you still 'care' about Sajha. And I am glad you do. E.g. 'Gaijatra' posting is an example 200 postings in 6 days!
What is Sajha without Ashu, NK, villagevoide, Nepe, Sparsha, Biswo, Paschim, HG, and newcomers like Paramendra, Sitara, anepalikt, BitchPatrol and many many others?
May be we need to think some other way to avoid many postings (star posters not a good idea either and categorizing is not fun either, they are for equal minded people), what is that I still don't know.... May be not doing anything is best medicine (sometimes) because Sajha will take it's own shapeslowly.....

As far as I know, ANepaliKT was long time before I joined GBNC.org, now Sajha.com
common forum. ANepaliKT, Suna, JDV, NK were here probably from the very first
week of this forum emerged as a public forum. I am a FAN of these "GANG OF Four
Ladies". When One speak, there is very high possibility that another speak,
especially, in issues related feminism. I am just dumb keep on reading their
enlightening articles. So, please, don'T discredit her longtime contributions to
bring this forum to this level.

Villagevoiceji,
Thanks for compliments.
I think , there used to be a time when we used to have very few postings here,
and more time at hand, so could read almost everything. Now, number of postings
have gone up, and it is difficult to read all of the postings, which is good for sajha.
Is it irreversible trend? I don't know. But let's have fun with the new gangs.

Hi VillageVoice,
I hear your concern. I guess this means sajha is getting more and more sajha.
Since you've brought it up, maybe it will be a good idea to let registered users have a customizable page where they can specify who their favorites posters are and show only the threads with the involvement of thier favorite posters.
What do you think?
Regards,
San

San, Sounds like a really good idea.
Do you also want to share the codes :).
Hahooguru: I think at different points we have tried to contribute to some pretty good discussions but have been either ridiculed or lashed out at or totally avoided :).
Anepalikt: verbally molested
NK: personally attacked
The gist of my posting is that there are still some people here who have a hard time incorporating ideas/thoughts or even considering different views because we are WOMEN! So-called educated men have this problem aru ko ta kurai chodu. Ki kaso??

I stumbled into this thread....villagevoice and logical sense...thank you for welcoming newcomers like us! :)
Suna, I agree with you, educated and yet not open minded. As a new comer, I was mortified in the begining but now I guess I have adapted...but trying not to get into the nastiness.....yeah right!! ;)
Anytime, you, NK, Anepalikt start a throught provoking thread...I will try to put my two cents worth. I think the more openminded sajhaites will support the discussion...hoina ra???
Now, that my work has started, I don't have much time to go through the loooooong postings...but I would like to read your ideas and thoughts.

Hahoo Guru: Thank you. I think when Logial Sense came to Sajha I was still on my self-imposed hiatus, so when I came back, I was new to him. Don't think he meant anything:)
I agree that the number of posters here are growing and that seems to mean that the nature and tone of the posts are also changing. Especially recently there seems to be an influx of folks from another site. Which is interesting in itself becaue they too seem to have a community of sorts. What I found curious was that they seem to speak a totally "different language"... culturally. I am still waiting to understand and appreciate better the changing nature of Sajha.
I also agree with Villagecoice, it is hard to sift through and find issues you care about and sometimes to find and read the opinons of people you know and whose opinions you respect. But when I do come across those posts, it makes them even cooler. I am personaly quite fine with that. Even if San makes personalized pages available for users, I probably would just come to the main board to check it out because otherwise I would miss out on the intelligent and fun new people who seem to be joining Sajha everyday.
After all thats been said and done, I have made peace with Sajha... it is sajha. Which does not seem to mean that we agree to a common "code of conduct" and operate within those parameters. If that were the case, the site would lose appeal for those opportunitists who are like those sajha bus riders who like to pinch, grope and grab. :)
Yet, I am not sure how I feel about creating a different layer of "insider"users. I guess it already exists by virtue of use seeking each other out.
But whatever it is one of the appeal of Sajha is its very Sajha nature. From coming here I have come to meet and learn about fellow Nepalis from all sorts of backgrounds, people who I would have probably never met or had I met them I might never have assciated with just because of my own baggage. I have come to appreciate the range of cultural experiences Nepalis are having both in Nepal as well as aborad. Anyway, whatever. As long as we are not saying anyone of "us" are better than "them!"
:)
love ya guys!!

I think the primary thrust ought to be on increasing traffic. All Sajhaites ought to start an e-mail campaign to spread the word. So that there 7,000 visitors per day, as opposed to 700.
For those who wish to read postings by only certain writers, I think that option is already there. You click on the person's username, and then click on the option to look at her/his Sajha postings. Right?

Village voice ji...
I'm going to hitch a ride on "your" thread and put my 2 cents worth in as a new comer into Sajha.
Someone told me about sajha 1 month ago and on a lazy summer day decided to visit. The first posting I read was "Buddha was born in Orissa"..... I was laughing so hard at scholarly discussions sprinkled with postent doses of humor. That was it for me...started reading other threads; very diverse. The amazing thing for me was the the highly reactive nature of people. I also noticed Sajhaites themselves are the judge and jury of any post; no post is one sided! Sajha is communal in that the censorship is maintained by the posters...this in itself is incredible (now, why would we want policing; an external authority...right??? :). As far as finding the right posting, I guess you will just have to look at it like a dictionary/encyclopaedia....find the word/s you want an info on!!! Don't star- mark it!!!
Here is something I have to say about some people.....bear with me...:)
Logical sense and Nepe ji always playing fair, oys_chill and Deep ji grounding us to our memories, the gang of four ladies, JDV...outspoken (nidar and admirable), Foxy, euta thita, bitch patrol KT@DC....others with "colorful" nature remind us of our teenage years; CZAR, oys_chill and Dirk, James Bond...incredible sense of wit and humour; Bisunji, ?, taha cha, Biswo, Paschim, Ashu,...have erudite observations on many fields/discipline, Nepali thito and Mad Max...funny but you really need a good sense of humour I think......Arnico, a gentle man...sweet. I do feel bad about LJ tho... :(
There are others I don't know...but I just wanted to express that you do have a diverse community going on here...very nice and entertaining.
Thanks Village Voice....

hi sitara, tks for the gbnc "dictionary". indeed, my "vocab" has plateaued over time - nk, biswo, ashu, paschim, sally. your feedback will definitely help me navigate the traffic better.
when i suggested something like My Kurakani, Us v. Them Club was the last thing in my mind. I remain a religious follower of sajha, and have found the experience of posting, and getting feedbacks from a diverse crowd, very rewarding.
Don't worry, Parmendra, my own SAJHA community is growing, and i am a vocal member in that little community. And let me add, you are the most widely talked sajha-er now :) I am most impressed by your political ambition, and very interesting experiences. Good luck.
To most new sajha posters, and also the oldies who have managed to adapt to the growing load, my concern may even sound snobbish, but frankly I am just overwhelmed by the size of the traffic.
Before anyone miscontrues my intention, however, let me hasten to add... As someone who has made some pretty good friends on the site, and learned quite a bit from people whose takes are very different from mine, I remain steadfastly against cartels. I am not about to bore you with my life history, but I am anything but clannish :) Hey, that's one quality that's attracted me to a number of sajha-ers in the first place.

Hi logical sense and suna, I am listening. And I hope I have made myself clear. As for you, San, tks first of all for your response.
I don't know whether I am very comfortable with the idea of seeing ONLY the Selected Posters. That would severely limit the gbnc experience. But how about an option, whereby I could better monitor my own threads and some posters? Say provision for My Kurakani alongside Our Kurakani.

Regarding the original question of the thread, I would welcome San’s proposal of an option of a customized page for the interested users. I am a semi-oldie of Sajha and I, like Villagevoiceji, find the total volume of the postings in Kukani too large for me to keep the track of the stuff of my interest. (I shouldn’t be saying this in view of a recent title of ‘Sajha Abhilekh Anusandhan Pramukh’ I received from Gokulji :-) ).
It would not hurt anybody. It would just make lives of some of us easier. More reasons to stick with Sajha ! Thanks Suna for your support to this idea. I assume other friends who pleasantly digressed from the original question do not oppose the idea. Am I right ?

I did not misunderstand you village voice, I was just expressing my own appreciation for the new voices here while making sure we are not being "elitist":) I do have to say I do agree with you. Managing traffic and navigating the posts could be made easier without being elitist or exclusive.
It is interesting that noone seems to have filled out their profiles at all. I personally never did because I was not particularly comfortable with sharing information about my real self to the world, but as I have read others' posts and come to appreciate their styles and respect their opinions, I get curious about the "real" people behind the posts. If "my kurakani" comes to fruition, it would be nice if people could uodate their profiles and allow posters of their choice to view their profiles. What do you think? I am personally just curious about the personalities behind the voices. If people choose to remain incognito and maintain a strict cyber persona, thats cool too.

I am well aware that many people here know each other, i.e., on a personal basis. I know a couple of regular posters myself.
This does make communication easier in that you need not worry too much about being misunderstood, esp when you are making potentially controversial remarks. But cyberia would be far less fun if it were not for anonymous posters, their diverse views, and occasional pats and darts :)
No problem, anepalikt, I understand what you are trying to say. I think we both more or less agree on the need for some personal space without being exclusivist.
BTW, I still haven't finished the book - about the American girl-turned-Maoist. As a matter of fact, I found some stuffs there plain boring as a long interview of Maoist leader Prachanda. And happily decided to move on to something more inspiring.

HI all,
I am really concerned about all those who want to segregate themselves from the pack. But then again I respect you all for that coz u all had the rights to do so. (Thank god we are not in once Taliban ruled Afghanistan.) I mean the Augusta national golf club is not letting women to be the member of the their club.
What the hell right, they, {Hottie Johnson, president or chairman of Augusta National, (lol, what a name, Hootie) severed all ties with the sponsors of Masters, coz he thought that the women group will pressure all those company that are sponsors of The Masters to boycott The Masters in 2003 and so on, If not then the women group will urge the most imp. group that make decision in shopping in the great old USA, damn women (I love this country) not to use their product. But then again all the sponsors that advertise in Masters are like Cadillac I mean give me a break and so on I have not seen any chick that drives a Cadillac since my grand mother died 5 years ago but I could be wrong and my apologies to all women who drive Cadillac. I still prefer Hyundai’s they are cheap and good on gas mileage and I still watch Masters and golf as a whole as long as they are majors but not all four days.
Ok, so where do we go from here, segregation? Not.
I personally don’t believe in segregation but then again what do I know about that, right? I was born in the good old feudal Nepal. I should be writing columns in Sajha or WSJ about it, but it’s hard to write any thing between Corona and Guinness stout.
I mean we have people here in Sajha that are kool and old school and then we have the new kids on the block. Of course we are not gonna have the best of conversation since some of us want to change the world in 80 days and some of us want to party for 80 days in a row and all I want is beer refill for free.
Finally,
To all my Sajha peers,
I understand you, feel you, share with you, frustrated with you, angry with you and don’t give a rat a$$ about it. So help me god.
P.S. Hey will you contribute to my fund to help Nepal I am just $ 5 billion short and if you are interested u can email me deshbkt@yahoo.com
Thanks
God bless you all.

To Village Voice other Sajhaitis,
I agree with villageVoice about Sajha.com changing from a mere website to a grand Nepalese dotcom gaint! I remember those days when "sajha.com" used to be called "gbnc.org". However, San has been very successful in bringing Sajha.com to the front stage. It has now been one of the most visited web sites of the Nepalese community. It has had many great improvements and quality posters are born every day. Sometimes, when there is a great political issue or a great event, such as ANA convention, Sajha.com has more than usual visitors. But sometimes, when there is no issue at all, less than usual visitors appear. Quality postings have been increasing but the low quality postings are increasing at the same time, speed, relativity and mass! The contents are not filtered and the poster's name isn't filtered too. Therefore, some of the postings are obsessive, racist, sexist and abusive. However, many intellectual posters post intellectual subjects and threads. Thats good.
From this, we can take a conclusion that sajha.com is excellent, but needs a lot of improvements (in technology and in filter).
Regards:
~Desh Bhakta Bhattarai
P.S. The Desh Bhakta who posted earlier wasn't me!
P.S. Technological improvement should includethe ability to upload more than 1 picture
@ a time in one thread.
P.S. Filtering of content and username is reccomended by most of us.

But, coming back to the main topic of this Thread!
As I said before it will be unfortunate if there will be a star system or anything less than 'for all' Sajha.
I do understand about the volume and I myself work so hard to read all the posts but, can't keep up hence my lapse of not replying promptly. But, I still don't want star system just because:
1) It will not give opportunities to new comers like me, or new generations like KT@DC to mature enough.
At this moment I see the 'automatic' checks and balances and the Sajha is flowing naturally.
2) Who would be 'chosen' one? Again, we will introduce politics here and many of us will be unhappy not being in the 'chosen' list.
3) I as a poster will not be happy if I know I am not reachin 'en mass' of Sajha.com
So, what can we do? Is there other ways to improve?
Yes,
1) Synopsis: I had proposed that people who tend to posts many and long articles should put a 'synopsis' at the front of the posting for 'executive' reading - interested party will go on reading the full article and not interested will get the essence... contrary to HGji who even refuses to put a paragraph change :-)
2) Many times same thread takes different turns and you would like to appreciate previous readers, I would like to adapt Paramendra's trick of posting multiple times.
3) Please, please do not posts the articles from other threads or published somewhere else, please put the synopsis and the link. It is against the 'fair copyright act' and also too much hard disk space for San.
4)anepalikt's lLittle 'Who's Who' is not a bad proposition. Once I had started a thread asking 'Introduce yourself', it was not paid attention, but that will connect people.
Having said that I would agree if the traffic keeps on growing to thousands on line at a time then we may have to segregate by different 'category of interests' so that we can keep up with our interest.
But, that time has not reached yet.......

I have been visiting this site for long time since its birth. I don't post anything here, but I have seen many faces in this long span of time.
To New comers:
It’s like changing foliage according to season. Old leaf falls, new grows up. It’s so natural. Let’s welcome all these new comers. Past stars like NK and Ashu will become legendary and go into sajha hall of fame:)
These days, I read Oys_Chill postings and I really enjoy his postings. I think he’s dazzling storyteller. I also like reading Sitara’s comments and sometimes her retaliations. So, my sajha rookie of the year award will go to “Oys_Chill”.
If you have to award new comers, who would you award?

This is kind of off topic, but here it is anyhow.
Mapai - what a Nepali word!
I have been seeing people accusing others of this syndrome left and right... most of the time, it simply seems to be that some people don't like others' style and or how prolific they are. Why don't people ignore the users they don't care too much for and stop going on about others habits and traits - unless of course something gets really bad. I think there are matters of nettiquet to be considered, but otherwise, this mapai thing seems to be yet another Nepali kutta tanne prabirdhi in action.
Self-respect is a good thing folks. You don't have to be a grovel all your life and wait to get noticed. It's okay that some try and grab the limelight. Afterall, in the long run, unless someone really has the star quality, they will just disappear into the woodwork. So please, enough already!

Before I get completely confused, I want to clear my position.
I am not for the segregation. I am not for the star system (although I do not know what it is). I am not for a jury. I am not for a change.
I am only for an option where I can create my personal archive where I can archive the threads (or better the postings I select) of my interest. I do not know if this is what San meant by 'a customizable page'. If yes. I am for it. If not, or if it is not possible, forget about it.
I am not for the segregation of the registered from the unregistered or the oldies from the newbies or the Haikus from the politics or the seven dayers from the rare visitors or the one liners from the epic-writers. I want to be with all of them. But I also want to have an option of a personal archive.
San, could you please explain what kind of options you can think of providing ?

Yeah this is a "cyber forum." But does not necessitate a total lack of responsibility on the part of individual posterss? And how far does this "cyber persona" go? paramendra is not putting himself out there as merely a "cyber character," like you and I are doing. He puts his name and his face out there. Bitchpatroll is a coward and also definitely a big time racist bigot!
ANEPALIKT,
Your own admission saying that you did not fill out the profile because you do not want to expose yourself to the real world. Isn't it hypocritical of you to call others coward(for not revealing themselves?). Think before you speak otherwise it will come back to you.

If you read carefully what you have quoted from the Gaijatra thread - "Paramendra is not putting himself out there as merely a "cyber character," like you and I are doing."
And what I have written above on this thread - "I personally never did [fill out my profile]because I was not particularly comfortable with sharing information about my real self."
I think you will find that I am being consistent. I usually don't much care to pretend like I am logical and consistent all the time, but in this case I AM being consistent. In both posts I acknowledge that I am not using my real name (unlike Paramendra).
I don't want to rehash the rather tedious discussion from the Gaijatre thread and what I mean when I said someone was being a coward. If you don't see what I was saying, well, thats your deal and I don't feel any compulsion to sit here at educate you.
Also if you look at what I HAVE said above on this thread, you find find that I am simply saying I am curious about some posters and it would be nice to learn more about them, but ONLY is they choose to let ME (or another fellow poster) in on their real person.
I suggest you take your own advice about thinking before you speak. You might also want to learn to read a little better or work on your comprehension before jumping the gun and accusing others of being a hypocrite.

Wow !!
Do I sense a brown nose here or what ? Your "Yeah I can do without you attitude is no better than the ones you are criticizing about." And even went as far to criticize my comprehention ? As if I am going to be graded for posting here ? I DO NO HAVE A PROFILE I DO NOT WANT A PROFILE.. I don't even know who you are and vice versa. YOU ARE BEING A BROWNNOSE BIGGOT. I was just merely making an observation.. PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH OTHERWISE SHUT THE HELL UP
this is exactly what this thread was talking about. All that I am better than you.. and you are not worth my time attitude. That is what fks up our whole neapli society. Just because you went to college and took a few classes does not mean you know everything in life. me me me me me GET OVER IT !!

On the same note Please do not go around calling others Racist Bigots when you don't even know what the other person is talking about. That person probably does not want to sit around and educate you too.. might have to go back to your class and ask you teach what the defination of hypocrite is ..

Sorry that you are so upset that I did not take to being called a "hypocrite" lying down. Remember, when you point a finger at someone, three are pointing right back at ya! You were NOT making an "observation". You were making a JUDGEMENT! Judge not lest you be judged as well!
What the heck is "brown nose"? Who did I brown nose now? No one is trying to Grade your postings, but you do get "graded" on your ideas and your "accusations":)
I will call whoever whatever according to the way I see it. And so will you! I did not tell you to shut up... unlike you who have resorted to SHOUTING and NAME CALLING!
And guess what, no, I do not have to go to the "teacher" to find out the definition of "hypocrite". I can simply click on the bloody word right here on Sajha and the "meaning will be revealed". But why would I even do that when I got you right in front of me on my screen? :)
And tell me, why does it seem to irk you so bad that I called a particular person (Bitchpatroll) what I did (a coward and a racist bigot [did I call him the latter? I can't recall the exact words I used? not that it matters because he is one even though he is making excuses left and right!])?
Why is that? You say I don't know what that person is talking about. Well, if you think I don't know what that person is talking about, how do YOU know? What e-special insight do you have?
I would say "educate me, please" if I was talking to someone who did not have blinders on, but in your case, I think I'll just pass!

What is Brow-Nose ? Duh look it up..as you said that you are capable of.
Duhhh!! I did not know that RACIST BIGOT was not name calling.
Its a free country Lady you can call whoever.. whatever. But like a boomerang it will come cack to you. If you don't want to be labelled then do not go around giving tittles to others. Unlike you I chatted online with him and asked him why before bestowing the tittle on him.

If this statement does not depict BROWN NOSING then I do not what would ! If the double click did not give you a clear defination.. maybe you need to go back to your school and ask your teach to give you a clearer defination.

Koko:
For an obviously erudite and educated person, it does not behoove you to resort to obscenity to make your point.
It is more than your right to attack a person's ideas. But to attack the person ? Does your sense of decency not prevail over your anger ?
Anepalikt may have questioned your thoughts and, at worst, called you a fool. Was that so bad ? Ever watched a telivised debate ? Do so, please.
I don't know anepalikt as a person, but for all you and I know, she may be the Queen of Sheba and Helen of Troy rolled into one. So I'd be cautious about name calling.
Let's see what you are made of Koko. Offer her an apology.

Ko ko ji:
I understand "brown nose" to mean a sycophant. I don't think I am here to kiss any one's rear. :)
Thank you for your apology, albeit it seems directed at Czar. But you are right. You are free to say what you want. I will respond as I see fit. Calling someone who is being a bigot a bigot is not name calling. It is speaking the truth. Your truth and my truth are obviously different. However, I am saying my truth THE truth. But whatever. Peace.

Queen of Sheba and Helen of Troy, huh! That's funny! I would do my loud laugh right here, but Sitara might say she can see my epiglottis.
Thank you. :)

Koko,
I am pleased you showed the grace to apologize. Well done. The 'heat of the moment' thing can sometimes do us in.
Anepalikt,
It has been said that a happy person tends to put on weight, and, gauging from your mirth, you may well have to get a new trousseau for winter. Lady, off you go to the fall collection viewings.
Epiglottis displays don't worry me. Its that wretched Harpic laced salad that Sitara dishes at the slightest provocation that ought to concern most.
Koko, just be pleased you haven't been offered that delectable dish yet, you don't know what you been spared.
I take it the hatchet has been buried and now its time to pass around the peace pipe ? Er, can we have flan de caramel for dessert while we're at it ?

Trousseau - I clicked and I clicked, unfortunately the bloody dictionary is not working. But I took it to mean new clothes! New clothes are always good! and so is flan. As for being fat and happy............... I don't know. I am a crochety old woman! :)

ROOKiE of the YEAR????
wowwowow!! ehehe.............mero naak thulo bhaing.......need a ruler to measure rite now!! Pressure mounting, no more memories, killed all my weak and the sad cells last nite ;)
on second thoughts, IT really hasn't been a year...mere two months :( ..so i have to wait for that award i guess ;)
Besides, it would be so so unfair to all the new comers who have perked up the sajha beyond imagination.....i can't give the names of the people.......as the list is too longg.........so les not isolate someone........i think everyone has their bits and bytes to make this a favourite nepali website ;)
Like i said earlier, the greatest satisfaction for me was to get an email from my sister who wrote that THEY LAUGHED SO MUCH READING MY STORIES THAT THEY BEGAN TO CRY? what can beat that????? :) "mero matrai nabhanam, yo site ta sabko sajhaaa ho ;)
NEPE bro would add " oys, its a priceless noble prize( the email reply) ;)
thanx to all..and esp san dai..keep tracking IPS ;)

Your desquisition to my point was embedded in a convexity of impertinence. Your rationale to judge others seem to have a double standard. One in which you pilaster your self-esteem in a pedestal and the other through which you judge others. The first seems peart in approbation but the later seem to lack logic and reasoning(full of passion). And by defination people with this particular descrepency are defined as hypocrites. But then again that might not hold true in ANEPALIKT's court but whatever..
As Slick Willie once said,"It depends upon what your defination of is is."

I clicked and I clicked and the bloody dictionary does not work.
But Koko, give it a rest. If you insist that I am a hypocrite so be it. It does not make it any difference to me. If you think I operate on double standards, well, thats fine too. I have given my opinion on the matter and so have you. All this now is just a race for one-upmanship . And as much as I keep coming to counter your argument with mine, we both know it is lame and unseemly. So lets shut up and let the thread go back to its original idea: "Help san, help us navigate the traffic and keep track of the threads by specific posters."
and avoid others :)

Anepalikt,

A summer of discontent, or, more likely not-quite-fall.
Looks like burying the hatchet in the other's skull is the more likely event. Jes when I thought I'd get a puff o that peace pipe n all.
Those who claim to be crotchety ole wimmen may want to consider golf. Then again, a nine iron in the wrong hands... Hmm..back to drawing board on that one. Scrabble, perhaps ? Non-functional dictionaries not needed. :)

And from my post...I hear oys_chill beating a drum as he hails in the "rookie" of the year. I agree with koko and bitchpatrol....reality checks (people who live in glass houses should not throw stones!!.....koko, is this the proverb, that fits?)!!! I hear anepalikt fiercely, fight a fiery battle while CZAR dons on the cape of Sir Walter Raleigh and rides on the steed of chivalry....
CZAR the wily, hails anepalikt as the "Helen ofTroy" Beware! Beware! The Ides of the Trojen Horse!!!
As OLD VIEWER ji chuckles to himself at the antics of the newcomer; gauging, analyzing, weighing each and every....Sajha thread holders.
I hear my name taken in vain as my disrepute for serving salad preceeds me......... :(
Bitchpatrol.....Pray stay!.... I still find you have a "colorful" personality.....
Sajha without the "colorful" can be bland and colorless; for the Zen of it all is "The Colorful Balances the Colorless....as Ying balances Yang!!! ;)
....so help us God help San, the man!!!
