best posting behaviour this week, I'll bake everyone a cake and ship it parcel post. The person who can post a picture of their cake, intact, will receive $1000 from me. It'll be a marshmallow lemon cake with a blueberry glaze. Ok, I guess some of you about now are beginning to suspect that even if the cake made it through the mail, something I'd make would probably be of dubious origin. Well lets focus on the positive posting behaviour then. We can all make that happen as it's a simple decision to not be bugged by what other's post. Yes I know, I have trouble keeping my balance too. It would serve us well to remember that others are equally intense in how they feel and respond to issues so let's try a little forgiveness, "even if, even if, you don't love me anymore" (Thank you Don Henley). As for the bashers, suspected or otherwise, calm reinforcement of the facts is always the best way to go. It makes you and the board look better and really does show best the difference between the bashers and the NOT experts. Ask who you would most readily be able to identify as the person you would take information from, a whining bast^%d, oops I meant basher, who makes no sense, or a calm and factual individual. Remember it is also very easy to misinterpret others intentions through the printed word, but you can still refute what someone says without name calling though you maintain your suspicions. I have a feeling though, that this week is going to make most, full of human forgiveness and magnanimous spirit as good news tends to have that affect. The best to all this coming week.
