Me either, Jerry. More because of what happened to my ex and how hurt he is over the whole situation. I'm tired of people talking smack about him and accusing him of doing it himself, when in reality, he wasn't the one who put stuff in the fuel. It makes me really upset, and I wish there was something I could do. NASCAR has actually done the impossible this past week... made me want to turn the channel away from the cars.

As for Balleto, is she real or not? I have heard shes a guy imitating a very attractive girl. Is this true?
Gander,

I've never met her, but I've spoken to her on the phone numerous times and can tell you she's a chick. From what I understand, there is ONE member on this board who has met her, and he evidently has chosen to keep his mouth shut concerning her and that's his perogative. I believe that she's who she says she is, though. Just my take.

The NYTimes has an article today on why people respond online in ways they don't in person- it's not only the anonymity (did I spell that right?) of it:

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/20/he...ce&oref=slogin

I'm going to post this on a separate thread, too, because I think it's good reading.

What I found interesting is one of the things the internet usually lacks that many in-person situations have is an authority figure. So, with Steve, et al, monitoring the site, it's not so much censoring as making the board run a little bit more like a face-to-face conversation would.

And aren't I a good girl for not getting in on this thread before now? My mommy always taught me if I don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all.


Seriously though, I do miss Joel's posts. I may not have always agreed with him, but he was intelligent and was always very nice to me.

I don't know what went on with Balletto. But I believe if Cajun talked to her, then she is a SHE. She seemed a little wild but not harmful.

Now some of the others? I will plead the fifth.

I'll tell Joel you miss him, Buffy. He misses posting on here too.

She is a female, that is for certain. Having not met her in person I can't attest to the fact that she is WHO she says she is, but I have no reason to doubt it. She has WAY too many photos of that girl, and has sent ones spur of the moment over her cell to me. It strikes me as odd that she would pretend to be some girl, and that this girl doesn't think it's weird that Al has unfettered access to her and takes hundreds of photos of her and hasn't caught on that she is pretending to be her?

Seems too weird to be true, so my reasoning says that she has got to be who she is. Wild? For certain.

OK. Tell him to come back. He always had intelligent things to say. I liked reading what he wrote.

To be honest with you all, I hadn't even realized these folks weren't posting...
