One thing I want to tell you all - when someone wants to leave for good - they live without "stop me" sign.

However, I dig what you saying, I am not going to be here for much longer as I am not traveling anytime soon, so, dear jsmith,
if your departure was on my account, please stay and continue to deliver valuable to others. I apologize if my posts drove you away. I meant well and no harm to anyone. So, I am not going away, but I will learn to keep my keybord locked.

Good enough Fodorites?
With love and respect,
Ziana immature

My how your English has improved.....

There it is with your Dad again. You must havesome kind of fixation or something.

Richard Nixon would have been proud of you. "You won't have jsmith to kick around anymore."

platzer, you have a sad and pitiful way of turning beautiful things into NEGATIVES. You are a blight on this forum. It's attitudes like yours that illustrate how ugly, nasty and destructive people can be. You clearly demonstrate that not every traveler is worth getting to know. No matter where I've been in life or where I will go, there will always be someone like you to remind me how good life is because I'm not you. Ugly people are no fun and they're easy to spot. All one has to do, in your case, is read some of your replies (at least the one or two fodors hasn't removed).

SiobhanP:

That is exactly what struck me as I read the Ziana reply.

I'm not so sure what jsmith has experienced leaves him only one way out ... out. He could opt to strengthen his "ignore" muscle. But perhaps he is simply tired and needs a break to freshen up ... 600 is an awful lot.

Ziana, dear, please reign in that ego of yours. You may have been the straw, but who knows, who cares. You are delightful, and worth a smile ... but believe me, I'm not using your Paris perspectives for my upcoming trip.

Now NYCFS, if you're reading, would you please advise me on a good apartment rental company in Italy who handles Venice and Tuscany? Many thanks for your time and assistance.
