Once upon a time, there was a board called "Scared Monkeys - A Civil Place to Chat."  That was in June 2005. I only recently noticed that Red took that banner down. I don't know why he did that but I can only conclude it was because he no longer wants this board to be a civil place to chat ... as evidenced by your post referring to rude posters.         

LV - if you have a problem with what Red does or doesn't have as a board topic you really should take it up with RED. But to ASSUME what you think is what Red wants or doesn't want is RUDE and uncalled for and antagonistic!! ...I am NOT going to get into an argument with you..you have a right to your opinion but please don't come on and try to start trouble...it will not be tolerated especially by us long time SM'ers

Anybody out there, with limited closet space, who has to change out summer clothing for fall/winter stuff?   I have been doing it for more years than I want to admit.  It's the pits.

The group we vacation with is thinking of Cancun end of Feb, beginning of March '09.  I am having the same thoughts and have not packed everything away, as yet.  I had had piles on the bed, and now they are in laundry baskets in another room.  I put some sweaters in drawers, and will tackle the project again, tomorrow, hopefully finding some things to donate, as well.  A few years ago, we visited friends in NH and she showed off a closet her DH made for her that held everything......sections for each season....I can dream about one here.

According to Destiny I am the problem.  It has to do with something that happened in Destiny's thread in the lounge.  That's all I'll say.

It is unfortunate to see a gifted monkey go.  I do not know all the circumstances surrounding the loss, nor is it my place to.  I have faith in our mods to keep each one of us safe on this blog especially in todays high tech world of fraud and theft. 
I hope that all monkeys remember that regardless of like or dislike of a fellow monkey or mod we are all here for a much greater purpose, today it is Natalee and Caylee for most of us, but tomorrow it will be someone elses child. 
For the most part we are all adults and I fully respect each and every monkey, and will continue to treat each one of you with the same respect that I wish to be treated.  I hope that everyone continues to post in search of justice for Natalee, Caylee, and every missing child.  Lord willing with enough people out there, including a blog of monkeys, we may one day be enough of a threat to cause a preditor to think twice before committing the act.

Oh that has to be maddening.  I wear the same style and cut of clothing year round, just throw on a sweater or light coat.  Then again it never gets below 67 here.

[Dolce]

Ok, I am sorry, Mods please feel free to delete this if it is too over the top...but I have to get this off my chest as its been bugging the heck out of me for the past week.

The Caylee forum is not a place to bash fellow posters, make underlined comments towards other posters, or call someone out in such a rude fashion that they feel like never posting again.  Over the past week that has been all that I have seen scattered about each single page, to the point that I hate reading back now, not because of the O/T discussion but rather due to the negativity that sprouts in the words of some posters.  There are ways to kindly disagree and argue, and there are some posters on here who do not seem to know tact..and they just keep on and keep on pushing it. 

Caylee's thread is for Justice for Caylee.  I understand that O/T does occur, and that is tollerated to a point by the mods, heck I do it myself quite often because if I didnt laugh a little I might as well lock myself in my clothset and cry all day.  Emotions are strong on this case, and a lot of people read and watch this forum...what a bunch of idiots we look like turning and biting our own kind for having another perspective.

That is all..I am done.  Had to get that out other wise I might go off on someone out of rage and get the button.

I posted in the Musing Thread, doubtfull many will read, but still sorry Klaas delete if nessessary. 

Why delete? You posted the truth Dolce. Some here do not like opinions that differ from their own. NO ONE...likes to be called a liar. Or have your statements in your  posts embellished to the point that they are making statements that weren't made. And even making comments about a poster identity (multipliable ones at that) even though they know nothing about that person.

Dolce...I think many posters here should read your post more than once to get the full meaning. Then maybe...just maybe, they'll think twice before making some rude and condescending remark about another monkey here.

Thank you Mr. Cult.  Everyone has the right to his or her opinon, and being a forum of opinions/theories/speculation everyone has the oportunity to share.  We are all adults here and I would hope that everyone would treat each other with the same respect that they too would want to have shown to them. 
If someone infuriates you...its easy to just walk away from a computer or count to 10 prior to posting.  Its a drop in the bucket, and like everything else in life opinions/theories/speculation can change.

Nuff said. For any and all posters, I have a word or two to say. 

Ask yourself the last time you spent a little time on SM and Klaas wasn't here. In my considerable time over years here, I can tell you that I have witnessed Klaas create a virtual encyclopedia of facts and data bases on gut wrenching cases, archives of poster e-mail addys, avatars, whimsical buses, airplanes, and buses and all for one purpose. Those efforts are made so that the casual poster can jump in and have all of that available. Those efforts are made to make the SM experience easier and more accessable to those who come here. Those efforts are made to make this a place that is a good place to be. Those efforts are made on OUR behalf.

As far as any poster having a problem with Klaas, I would suggest looking closely in the mirror so that you can attempt to remove the log in your own eye. You'll see better to remove the splinter in other's.

Klaas is not the problem. Thank you Klaas for incredible sacrifice on our behalf and for your impeccable judgement.

We, DH and I and son and DIL are going to Jamaica...we lucked out and got a great deal at a new luxury resort....and we are so excited not only about the resort but about going to Jamaica....I lived and worked there for 10 years and we go back at least every other year...oh I would kill for a closet like that....although I must admit I don't have a lot of winter clothing....having only been back in MO for one year...last year was a bear for us...I lived in jeans and sweats....so I will have to get a couple sweaters this year...We have vacationed in Cancun several times....great snorkeling!! and yummy food!!
