    Just keeping up with THIS forum is getting to be a full-time job .
    How do those of you who read and post on BJ and TE have time to do anything else (like ride your bikes) ?? I try to be selective, but even still...

    I guess time management is not one of my strong suits.

    I go to BJ about 20 minutes per week. not that much; usually because DH wants me to read something...

    Mine is kind of slack right now. I work at a community college and we're between semesters. I *should* be doing things I normally don't have time to do, but here I am...

    Our weather is beautiful right now, too, but we need rain badly. I hope it stays nice through the weekend though. Actually, I want to live in Camelot!

    I left the bicycling mag forum cuz there were just some really obnoxious folks there. They actually deleted me against my wishes from their 'club' on bike journal, cuz I wouldn't give them my mileage, and one fellow in particular, who often posted about how good his wife was in bed was obnoxious to me, so I came here. A lot of that 'bikeporn' crap was posted there too. It doesn't bug me that it exists, but I have no interest in viewing it. I log my miles on BJ, but don't hang out too much since their policies are too politically correct for my liking. There was a recent discussion if a link to the Onion should be deleted as offensive. PLLLLLEASE, we are all adults with a range of political views. TE strikes a happy medium, we all agree for the most part as to what is offensive and inappropriate.

    I try to be as offensive and inappropriate as possible.

    Confession time: My sentiments precisely. Early in life, I developed an obsession with porn. I was exposed at a young age to the Playboy's that a friend's dad had. I struggled with this well into adulthood.

    But, I see it as a non-productive obsession. This is one thing that draws me to this forum...it is safe and does not even remotely trigger flashbacks to past addictions...and it is an addiction the same as alcoholism.

    Scripture says: "All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body."

    I personally don't want to be exposed to this either.

    For the record, I checked out some of the other forums...and they're not the same. I hope that you are knowing that I'm not trying to change the chemistry, but I enjoy my occassional visits...

    I consider myself fortunate not to have experienced anything like some of you have - but then, TE is only the second forum I have ever visited. The first was Terry - no problems there either. I met jeannierides over there and she told me about this one. I've been here ever since.

    Thanks, jeannierides!

    If you're like me, I can access these sites through my workplace at break time. I also work graveyard, so most of my riding is done in the morning. I usually look through interesting stuff on the computer just before I go to bed.

    And I'm a fast reader!

    hmm.. can't see link. odd.. i have a bf login. not that i **really** need to see it. more curious why i can't.

    says I don't have the right permissions:

    $bbuserinfo[username], you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

    1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
    2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

    I went back there, it's finally been removed. It only took what, 18 hours?

    I guess the colour of our money is not as good as someone else's. We know where to vote.

    Did I mention that this is another reason to support TE?

    Now if we could only become donating members here. Or can we?
