10 random facts about you.

[sean1331]

Thanks . . .

Thanks for the kind words "slimvintage' and 'jayman01'. I am surprised that you two could reply so quickly to my post, which took several hours to write over the course of 3 days, and that was a relatively quick reply for an intellectual query.

Let us take note of the placement of "anger" in the list of emotions, along with it being one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

I also do not swear, curse, or use profanity.

Sean bless your heart. With me and responses it depends on a few things.

• How long have I been on that day?
• Which computer am I using: my home computer or my lap top?
• Where am I at with my school work?
• Whether or not my brother is driving me crazy at the time or not?

If I have a clear head I can pop things out pretty quick. Many times I am on in here and I am brain fried. Just in here destressing then. Then there are times when there is a really hot topic of discussion or a great new member to meet and get to know. Then it is just a matter of making the time to get to know them.

Sean I am loving you and your personality more and more with every post. Thank you for sharing and just being you.

Dear Sean,

You become more intriguing with every post. You must be an old soul indeed to maintain such serenity and clarity of focus on the earthly plane. This is not your first time on the merry-go-round. LOL There are many of us who would be quite eager to discuss philosophy, spirituality, politics and many other topics on your list of interests.

If you have something that you would like to start out with I encourage you to start a thread on a topic of your choice. You are bound to find a listening audience eager to participate in intelligent discussion. You will find that we are capable of discussing many deep and complex issues of far more relevance than just sex.

Again...Welcome to the forum Sean!

I do think we should move this conversation to another thread anyway to keep this thread clear for its intended purpose.

Wow, thanks for sharing. Founding a detox center must have been a labor of love and what a great way to give back. You truly have learned the balance of giving and receiving... Bless your heart.

Want to thank you for sharing. You are truly an amazing guy. Unfortunately, I tried the Karaoke one day. I can't hold a tune in a bucket if I tried, LOL... I was even sober. I was even offered money after my singing debut. I think all totaled I was offered about $500.00 to never do that again. I can even relate with the snake. Clyde Peeling let me help move a 24 foot python when I was in High school. I think I was 15. We helped move him to a new Cage Kafig So we could clean the old one. That snake was heavy. LOL...

Thanks Jayman,

It was and continues to be a labour of love. It's a non-profit so I work two other part-time jobs, but still love doing it. If I'm still sober today, it's because of the people who have come through, they've help me more than I can ever tell you.

Also, thanks for becoming my first friend on the site, now I truely feel like I belong here, I GOT A FRIEND, and Tampa was very nice in other thread, I've already decided to call him a friend also. Now, i just missing Slim.

Jayman,Tampa, and Slim, is the the trinity, I shall take the oath and look forward to learning the secret handshake.

I am most happy to call you a friend BBoy. And vice versa. You have good taste in wanting to be friends with Jayman and Slim. But there are many other wonderful people here too. You might be surprised at some of the absolute sweethearts in Forumland. They may not post as much or keep such a high profile, but they are nonetheless some very quality people. There are some real gems out there who post next to nothing but will communicate with you in private. And you will find that you can be a much richer person for the experience. I encourage you to try it.

Shhhhhh!!!! There is no secret hand shake. Usually we just hug. Try not to let that secret out to too many people. LOL I think in time you will see that most of the people who post here in the land of Forum are just as sweet and genuine as you feel about Slim, Tampa, and me. I cannot think of anyone that I would dislike. I tend to look for the best in everyone. Again, Welcome to the Forum...
