Welcome to the Internet

You know, I visit quite a few message boards, and every single one of them has self-appointed etiquette police. Cross that person or group, and you can expect them to petition the webmaster to ban you. Or rally the troops to ignore you or flame you whenever you post. Like cliques in high school, some of them.

My favorite posts are the "I'm gonna leave" ... "I was going to leave but" ... "Goodbye" ... and especially "I'm never coming back!" Maybe the Internet is not the place for you if you are so easily offended by the words of strangers. See ya.

Random thoughts

People say the nicest things about the dead. You know all those wonderful things written about people in the obituaries, and the kind remembrances given in eulogies?

We should try to say such nice things to people while they are alive.
