Readers don't always bother to check the background or profile links. I do mention that I'm a dad.<br />"...nearly all of the blogs that I read are written by women..." Boy that's the truth because a high percentage of all blogs are written by women. I attribute it to communication skills. Many of us men are just getting past the grunting stage while same aged girls are reciting from 'Wuthering Heights'.<br /><br />Now that you know my gender I sure hope it doesn't hinder your visits.lislemanhttp://afcsoac.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-76223321487766622052010-07-18T17:47:03.182-05:002010-07-18T17:47:03.182-05:00If I read something that reminds me of a story I t...If I read something that reminds me of a story I tend to put it in the comment box. on and on I ramble LOL Sometimes I type it all out and delete it and put in a much shorter version. I feel like I'm really only telling myself the story anyway. <br /><br />I love what you said about the analog and digital. I may have to use that in my blog :) with credit and a link to you, of course! It made me think of a story, too long for a comment today.<br /><br />So, I just assume (and you know what they say about assuming) that you were a woman because nearly all of the blogs that I read are written by women, but when you got to the Looks like George Clooney comment I was surprised to find out that you thought that was a compliment, being a woman. Once I laughed and realized you were probably a man, it made a lot more sense!Kristin_The_Goathttp://www.ttelroc.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-78015873068318707942010-07-18T11:31:23.834-05:002010-07-18T11:31:23.834-05:00what's your best crossing time?what's your best crossing time?lislemanhttp://afcsoac.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-6442125337872205412010-07-18T06:21:07.839-05:002010-07-18T06:21:07.839-05:00I like those count down walk signs because they gi...I like those count down walk signs because they give me an idea of how long I have before the light changes.

I think it's really funny, when I read the lyrics to a song and realize how wrong I've been about what they are. Too funny. For example, you know that song that starts, "I believe in miracles. Where ya from, you sexy thing?!" For many, many years, I thought it was, "Wear your bra! You sexy thing!" hahaha<br /><br />Yeah, so to make you feel even worse about the ambulance reference (just kidding), my cousin told me yesterday that his MIL (ambulance person) was killed a few years back, when the ambulance she was working in was hit at an intersection and she was ejected. (Sorry--Hey, you're the one who brought it up!)<br /><br />So, yeah, I'm working on that long comment you mentioned, though I think FF call for them.

I am forever learning new things and adjusting my opinions and I feel like I am in that way recycling ideas. I can make a change to an idea and it seems like something new. Regarding long comments, the length of a comment isn't something that draws me or distracts me. The content is what is important to me. If I am going to comment on a post, I want the freedom to add my thoughts to what was brought up in the post and in general participate in the discussion that way. I really like the comments left on my blog. It is particularly pleasing to me when people take time to add to the discussion and speak openly and share in any way they are able. Sometimes your comments are fairly long and sometimes they are short. As in everything in life, it all depends on what you have to say at the time and how much you are willing to share. I know you like comments too and you are really good about leaving great comments elsewhere so it is only fair that people leave good comments for you. So we could all say like Mami does "We give good comment".TechnoBabenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-71799666401211256382010-07-16T07:39:33.575-05:002010-07-16T07:39:33.575-05:00Hi...I was here (snicker..hehe)Hi...I was here (snicker..hehe)Bearmancartoonshttp://beartoons.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376160.post-60610697516257227772010-07-16T06:27:43.631-05:002010-07-16T06:27:43.631-05:00Now you have me thinking...
