Some are experts only in their own minds.

I can think of a poster on another forum that was forever recommending that people look at a section of my home town where he lived. I think he came from a bad section of somewhere like New York. I wanted to shout NONONO! That's a high crime district!! But he sounded as if he were an expert.

To get the most out of a resource like this, each person needs to know how to read for themselves, decide which posters give consistently good information, learn to read between the lines. So I don't like the idea of "management" scoring what goes on here, no.

Puhleeeezzzz! That's all I've got to say on the matter.

I wanna STAR,

Someone's on the computer with info.
Someone's on the computer, I know.
Someone's on the computer with info
Pounding on the ole keyboard.

I want a star, just like the star with the hangover in the bar.

Faina - Is ****K**** still around?
I haven't seen her post on FFRR for lately. Maybe she's hanging out on a more upscale post?

OneWanderingJew Sep 13th, 2005 04:49 PM

So would it be blue stars, red stars and the ever coveted gold star??

Boo. Hiss!

Not a good idea....

And where has ***k*** been lately? Maybe she's too busy riding her yellow bicycle??

seetheworld Sep 13th, 2005 04:52 PM

Yes, Faina, send me to the corner, <i>please!</i>

LoveItaly Sep 13th, 2005 04:53 PM

Maybe ***K*** got food poisoning from one of her fabulous restaurants? Or had to go to a spa for a week to lose all the weight she must have put on by bopping around from restaurant to restaurant? Bad me!

Scarlett Sep 13th, 2005 05:05 PM

Keep an eye out for someone riding a bicycle with very fat tires...or roaming hotel lobbies and taking notes..

I teach second grade and stars are a way of life for me. I got red stars, blue stars, green stars, stars with rainbows, stars with frowny faces, stars with smiley faces, stars with stars, stars with ying/yang, stars with peace signs, you name it, I've got the star! Let's see, fodorites ...second grade...7 years old, yes, I think it would work!

:-d

Bill :D

Just so you know, my little ditty was to the tune of &quot;I've Been Workin on the Railroad&quot; - just wanted to share :D

kybourbon Sep 13th, 2005 05:36 PM

Scarlett - Would that be fat tires or flat tires?

P_M Sep 13th, 2005 06:18 PM

Bravo to all of the wonderful singers/songwriters!! I am now giving you a sitting ovation.

The only time I ever use stars is to hide a curse word, like one time when I told the trollbitch to kiss my a**.

OK, I must join the group. Here's my song. Try to imagine Jiminy Cricket is singing:

When you're wishing for a star
Makes a difference who you are
If really are so smart
You're dream will come true

When someone requests advice
Always strive to be real nice
Don't make them feel like a fool
And you'll get your jewel

Recommend the ATM
US dollars will not spend
In countries that are far away
Traveler's checks are so passe

Don't let trolls get you down
Think of them as fired clowns
Blow them off, they'll go away
Good Fodies are here to stay

If you're feeling sad and blue
All the Fodies care for you
Join us all on this Friday
For FF Rants and Raves!!

&lt;I am taking my bow.&gt;

Thank you, thank you very much….
