PD.com: The place I thought I could call home

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I don't know, I'm just begining to get the impression I don't belong at PD as anything more than the occasional pop in lurker.    

i consider you one of the cornerstones of this place, FYI.

The post count for this month is at a three year low. I think the main problem is that there were 24 people logged in earlier and no posts for 45 minutes.

Everyone was waiting for everyone else to say something.

And then when someone did, everyone waited for someone else to respond.

OK, more posting from me. Hopefully my signal to noise ratio doesn't get fuggered more than it already it.

Or at least tell the new people when they arrive and ask who the ghosts who haunt the old threads were explain they all got jobs for us.
I remember when I had free time, life was good.

HOLY FUCK! What have i done!? People are posting and talking!

HOLY FUCK! What have i done!? People are posting and talking!

Shit like that happens, sometimes...

HOLY FUCK! What have i done!? People are posting and talking!

Well at least we now know who to blame.

Today, I am making free time.

I will regret it later.

Working + volunteering + applying for training + shit tons of reading = sometimes I am surprised I even have time to log on.

And you still manage to be my favorite thing about PD.

I know everyone loves Roger's work.  I do too of course, and there are plenty of other people doing really worthwhile stuff, but it's your analysis and knowledge of what is going on in the world that makes me eager to find out what may have been posted on the board.

Thank you.

Tonight I'll be making free time too.

To paint walls.

It's true; Cain is my go-to for political and world event analysis, as well as a touchstone for perspective on the person I think my oldest daughter is becoming. I will be very proud if she turns out similar.

Mmmmm, basement!

Mine is a leaky mess. I half-finished it a few years ago, and there's a bar, a couch, a TV, and a puddle of fucking rainwater in it.

99% crap, 1% content.  That is all.

99% crap, 1% content.  That is all. 

You're a good egg, Phoxy. I like your 99% crap, because it's enthusiastic, and it usually makes me smile. And not in that face rictus smile that the real World seems to demand more and more of these days, but a proper smile that makes stuff a little bit brighter, and more bearable when things are weighing a bit heavy, or cutting up rough. Like they have been lately. I seem to be stretching myself too thin to work up much enthusiasm at the moment. But you know how sometimes you feel if you stop and just do nothing for a while, you'll never get up again? Yeah. That one. It usually gets easier once the "F" Month is out the way. But it just seems harder to find any good shit going on anywhere in the World at the moment. I know there is still good stuff going on, even if I can't see it, but the trick is not to do the obvious, and look harder, (Sometimes that just makes the shit stuff stand out more) but to look better.
To look past the shit, instead of sifting through it. That way, the nuggets of gold have less to compete with,  their shiny.
Anyway, like I said, your 99% crap is good medicine. Or it is for me. 

Your 1% content on the other hand, . . . . . .
