  1. Zixar,

    I don't know what you are trying to acheive, but your quote is based on nothing and you should tell me where I said what you claim I said. I know you don't like being misrepresented, why are you doing it to me?

    There is growing unrest among the GreaseSpot posters, and b) Pawtucket currently has no intentions of changing anything to address that.
  2. Zix,

    I must take issue. Your poll is weighted for a negative outcome. The most positive of the 5 choices is "Not quite yet"

    The "No, it's just taken another of its myriad turns" is hardly weighted in favor of GS. And the rest are weighted in favor of the answer you seek.

    What would a "Has Zixar "Jumped the shark" look like

    1. No he's just being contradictory

    2. Not quite yet.

    3. Maybe. I can't tell what he's trying to be anymore.

    4. Yes. He's no longer the Zixar I used to love reading.

    5. Finally!!! He jumped a long time ago.

    What would your answer be?

  3. Yes!

    If you look at percentages, you will never get a clear picture. We can see all the friction and asst fights. We don't all see the lives that are being put back together post-TWI hopefully with some help from the info here.

    "Jumped the shark" is a phrase used in a community that is constantly looking for something new and intriguing -- The young new star. I don't think that it can apply to a community. This community, hopefully, evolves. Different people with diverse stories, yet common elements. There aren't always going to be new episodes and new characters. Sometimes the familiar is good enough.

    Remembering birthdays IS part of a community.

    Arguing is one of the healthiest things we do here.

    Take the "irritating" items and you have the ingredients to a return to the general population after living under a micro-managed cult. It ain't always pretty.

    So YES we "jumped the shark". Hopefully we do it often.

  4. Seriously though, I am seeing it unraveled slowly. It isn't a one word answer. It changes and evolves and becomes clearer as time goes on and as I shed that which bound me up.

  5. A year or two prior to "finding" TWI, I was on a personal quest for "The Truth" I had become disillusioned with the Catholic church and wanted God to lead me to the truth.

    Suddenly TWI comes into my path. I "assumed" that this was God's answer to my prayer. It wasn't. God had yet to answer my prayer.

    I won't try to figure out who put it into my path, but the Church Lady was right!!!

  6. maybe he hasn't answered your prayer yet. And what you thought was an answer was an ad for something you did want had you thought about it.

  7. Has anyone heard of a program that lets you know when someone has you on their list? Or notifies you when they look at your status or profile? This is all concerning AIM.

  8. At the bottom of the page in this forum, I have put a link to the Internet Traffic Page. The button gives you a number from 0-99 on the status of US traffic. Click on it for more detail. Good to check if you are running slow, it might not just be your Internet Provider.

  9. I have to say that they certainly surprised me. I was expecting a big shoot out. I went back to the teaser from two weeks ago and all the cuts were from the finale and no implicit gunfire.

    It was a letdown. Maybe the big shoot out will be the first episode of next season. I see a few getting knocked off.

  10. I think that Pat corrected the "name" issue, a mistake is a mistake.

    We are very quick to turn from debate and discussion to personal attacks. It is unfortunate, that we can't step away from the keyboard, when irked and return with a cup of objectivity.

    Pat and I disagree regularly. I even disagreed with a point on this thread. I chose to email him privately about it, but that's me.

    I don't want to bring out the rule book, but will if it goes into the area of personal attacks again.
