    Let me rephrase my statement. It's generally unnecessary to state the already blindingly, almost painfully obvious and to do so makes one doubt the powers of observation of the one making the statement. Here, I was enjoying this thread, but Cali, I've looked at your previous posts, and I'm with Lisa S.H. Call me paranoid (it's my job. Literally.) but you give me a bad "vibe".
    I don't care where you're from or what your IP is. You still smell like a troll. You've trolled this thread from its inception.

    i was a member here a little over a year ago. i have contributed much positive to this forum. you can be "paranoid" all you want but i know who i am. hell i don't blame you with all the weirdos on the net, but for all i know i don't know who you are and you could be anyone. the fact is i speak my mind, some may find it offensive for whatever reason -- but i don't name-call. i on the other hand have been called "troll," accused of being past members who have been on here among other things. it's amazing. one person (who i will not name) sent me PM's telling me they received the same "newbie" treatment when they first got here.

    What ever happened to "live and let live?" How about "judge not lest ye be judged?" or "If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all?"

    I am 1/2 german and its nothing for german girls to go topless at beaches. Not considered indecent. No I don't do it (gravity and all), but I have no problem with those who do. Live and let live.

    I am not a "lesbian" but since when is it a crime? Love who you want to love. Judge not lest ye be judged.

    "If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all?" well I am not known for keeping my mouth shut but lawdy, I am trying so hard to be nice right now.......
    Correct me if I am wrong but isn't this supposed to be the HUMOR thread??? Geez, lighten up peeps.

    And in the words of a very smart lesbian who I'm betting is pretty cool ~~> Peace chicka's

    KnottedYet "There are about 30 or 40 of us here."

    .... and the rest of them lie about it

    JK, really, I am sooooo kidding.

    Cali, this board is a very special diverse group of women, we range all over the map and are diverse including all ethnic goups, religions and countries. Our politics are all over the range and yes even mountain bikers (again. I am soooo kidding).

    What we have in common is cycling and this board has a history and tone of respectful discussion.

    It is a place we all can meet and discover what we have in common not what divides us.

    Furthermore phrases like "well them you must be a lesbian" .... since when is the term lesbian an insult? It's just a fact, some women are, some aren't, sometimes you feel like nut, sometimes you don't.

    You are welcome here yet I hope TE remains a respectfull and diverse place.

    I'm thinking someone turned you down for a date

    well i never said it in an insulting way, if that's how you took it. i don't think the word "lesbian" is an insult, just a factual depiction of one's sexuality. i'm fully hetero, but that's just me. whatever.

    Good Grief, someone needs to alert me to these events!

    I take one wee trip to hospital and I miss out on everything.

    Bluetree-you crack me up!

    Caligurl, we know who you are, never change.

    Snap-good thing you taught me about that magical button.

    I will be fine. I had another TIA (transient ischemic attack). It is a mini stroke/warning stroke. I have had those before, but DH inisted I visit the ER. At least most of the staff were in Halloween costumes.
