Hmmm ... Interesting. Your reference to "the unpleasantness of the
personal attacks" somehow sounds more grievous than anything you
experienced in MFW. I won't be so crass as to ask the identity of the
offender[s], but would you disclose the forums in which those attacks
occurred? A morbid curiousity on my part, of course.

I'm not sure you can call it "cutting" under those circumstances.
Anyway, the experiment went rather oddly. I gave up on that stupid diet
after my power went out for 15 hours and I had to throw away most of my
food. Then I started losing weight without trying. After I lost a few
pounds I realized that what I really needed to do was gain back some
muscle. I'm not doing that right now though. Bulking in summer is...
eww. I just can't eat that much when it's hot out. Not consistently,
anyway. >> Stay informed about: newbie group question |

No. I must have been removed from the circulation loop. I feel so
alone.
So, was your departure due to personal conflicts or boredom?

I see you clutch at straws as usual Williams, in your desperation to
get one over on me. Remember that .jpeg is only on my web site because
I want it there; and because I have the capacity to enjoy a joke -
even if it is at my own expense.
By way of retaliation for your silliness John Williams, and given that
you are indicating a predilection for all things anal, I raise a cheek
and fart raucously in your general direction, as a token of my regard
for you! >> Stay informed about: newbie group question |
