Happy 2000th Birthday to Me
I hardly noticed that my pic count just exceeded the 2000 mark. A quiet and happy 2000th birthday to me. I only just made the 1000 mark after about a year, so my pace of pic posting must be way up. I don't pay particular attention to that. It's not like I can regulate the degree to which I do so. It is what it is.
I don't want a party or cake or candles or ice cream. In fact, I got quite the opposite for my "birthday. " I woke up one morning and the Admin had me under "house arrest" for not playing nice with the rock-throwers. So, others are allowed to do that all they please; some have even posted serious threats to me, and even solicited conspiracies to single me out and do me harm. But that's OK. They are still here, and likely will be accorded full privileges when they become a "senior member, " for whatever that is worth. I, apparently, am not permitted to respond. C'est la vies. Nobody ever said life was fair.
So now I can't post ANYwhere except in this thread. You rock-throwers who SAY you want to ignore me, and prefer I stay in my own thread?: you have your wish. You can stay in your playpen and I will stay in mine. If you don't want to read my reports, see my comments, look at my pics, just don't. It's that simple. I am in solitary confinement. If you don't bother me I won't bother you.
Cooky, Freak and others who post good pics and write some good stuff?: sorry, but I can't reply to it to give you props or commentary or anything for that matter. I can't even immediately post here in my own thread. I am on a moderated status, just like a new member. Worse than that, I can't even edit my own posts. My posts are long and I often look them over carefully for grammar, spelling, afterthoughts and additions. But now, not only can't I even see them for who knows how long (because the time from posting to seeing the post is not something set in stone), but I can't even correct any typos or errors. I am not the greatest typist, so you will be seeing a lot more mistakes of all types in my reports. Please don't give me any gas about such matters. They are no longer under my control.
I can't create new threads either but that is no big deal. I have created a few that I thought were beneficial, but it is just one less thing to have to think about.
Since I can't post anywhere else, my thread has the potential to get very jammed with stuff I would normally post "on topic." But giving this whole thing some sober thought makes me less inclined to post much information of any sort anyway.
It is a sad birthday indeed, But as Betty Davis once said, "Getting old ain't for sissies."
