I say yes, you say no, OR People are Strange

Well, I'm showered and off to get supplies - can I bring you back anything - like scones, jam and cream? Our supermarkets in this state don't sell alcohol - but there's a shop that does right outside the supermarket.

Three pages already....not being in the active topics doesn't seem to slow us down. But it eventually might.

Mods, could you please tell us what is going on? I mean, there are plenty of threads that annoy me no end and that I would LOVE to not even see, and yet I have to. I don't think this is a very productive solution to someone's vendetta. If that's what it is.

Did Greta scare you? (If so, which one? Oops....) 

I am so embarrassed - I had to PM Blue to find out where her thread went - never crossed my mind to check my own records to find it.  Oh well, I guess they took us off to save us some trouble or to save themselves some trouble - whatever.  Don't worry "they'll" find us - they always do.

Going to find some scotch - later.

I wouldn't worry Athena.

We can still be found if you go to the "Growing Our Friendships" forum, and if you go to the Forum Index page, if we are the last thread in that forum with activity, we will show up there, too. I don't think our lurkers will have trouble finding us. Sometimes I would go to the index to find us if our topic had dropped off the front page of active topics. We'll be OK.

It's not just us ... a lot of others are not showing up either.   I think it might be a good idea ... at least for a while.  It could be said that we are so active that we dominate the active topics too much? 

Edited out rant -lol! Let's see what happens then. 

Cindy - looks like we both have a busy week.  I cancelled my appt with the PS set for Wed as I don't think I will even feel like going to see him after my procedure on Wed.  So the following Wed I see the oncologist and PS in the same day.  Our lives seem to revolve around doctor appts

I had to think about where this thread would be since it wasn't in the active topics.  Like Susie - I didn't think to look at my own profile to find it.  But......now I have it as a favorite.

Dh has been out of town all day and is expected within the hour.  It is already 7:30 pm so not sure I am going to cook because I MUST go grocery shopping.  We are out of about everything and I need my zoloft! 

Ok, I wil try to settle down to this. I suppose I wouldn't mind if it were not for the suspicious timing. I would prefer it if the mods had this planned all along and did not make a hasty decision under pressure. Am I being paranoid?

Asiago baked whitefish with salad and baked potato when we went out sfter cleaning up the flooded basement.

Change of topic. Anyone else get in trouble when they were a kid when a sibling did something wrong?

Oh and the great nonprofit reviews are a hoot. Thank goodness our moderators would stop stuff like that here.

Oh and there is a baby shower here Sunday and none of the stuff I was going to do tonight got done. Small panic attack. I will be fine.

IMHO, not appearing in "Active Topics" may be a good thing.  I must be extra-dense, because I hardly ever use the "Active Topics" list unless I see a thread there that I've participated in.  When I open BCO (I logout and login each time), I scroll down through the Topic Index (master list) and find the forums I'm interested in.  I'll check those forums to see if anything is going on (new posts, new threads, desperate pleas for help).

That's almost always how I find this thread.  I just scroll down the list, looking for it. 

The reason I think it might be a good thing to keep this, and other, threads (or whole forums?) out of Active Topics is to counter the argument that certain threads are ... um, ... well, heck, y'all know what the arguments have been.  Having this thread not appear in Active Topics takes away one of those arguments.  Anybody who wants to hang around can still find us.  It just takes a few extra clicks.

Heck... this change could bring about world peace.

What did you say about whirled peas?

Rosemary, whirled peas are always served with gin bubbles.  It's a rule.
