Lex:

"P" may just get the dampening effect of email volume for you, as it appears to be the visual of a member hanging at ease.

If the volume dips to an unacceptably low level, you can always turn the situation around a hundred and eighty degrees by turning the P 180 degrees (into a "d").

If you ever need a vacation from unwanted mindless popularity on the site, I can always lend you a couple of my photos from my immense collection of self-portraits. Those should stop the influx of email dead in their trax.


I don't know, I've tried doing the "other picture" thing and it hasn't made any difference.

I've used pictures of my tape dispenser, a llama, Bob Saget, a cutaway view of Neptune's atmosphere, none of it makes any difference.

I don't think anyone has actually looked at my pictures or read my profile since 2008.

Got an idea or two for you: Pilgrimage to the Grave of Leo Tolstoy; Holy Lourdischer Wasser for cologne/aftershave every morning; blood sacrifice on the altar of sadness.

That's a little too much like an LDR.

Maybe a pilgrimage to a gravesite somewhat nearer, like the neighbor's hamster.

Either that, or mail me five bucks every five minutes. That's okay, too. I don't think I'll have any objetctions to that. No mountain climing involved. You can do it from the comfort of your own easy chair. If a R is required, you can look at my plethora of self portrait photos, which I could send you if you give me an outside email address.


No, I am not a scammer!!! I resent the suggestion I may have given or insinuated with regards to my motivation.

Obviously, you are no scammer! Not once have you said "I am to be liking your structure."

I think the scammers that always have some pitiful child in a boarding school are the real corkers.

Or the ones that live in a rented room and swear you are the one who is the gold digger when you won't let them come over and hang out for the first date.

I especially think the ones that tell you how desperate they are to be able to call and know you are alright but they just can't afford anothter phone card until pay day. So sorry Charlie.

Best way to run of scammmers is to tell them you are so sick and poor and have no credit. lol

I think that's smart what you say. It's good advice. but try to do it without discrediting yourself.

If they call me 'dear' or 'pretty' and use phrases like 'how are you over there' and 'I'm new to this site', etc. I'm a retired English teacher, so I can spot the scammer rhetoric and poor grammar right away.


As a retired English teacher you should know that grammar rules don't apply in informal settings? That's what I thought? You know what I'm talking about so you tell me? I could be wrong.


Germanicus, I am not an English teacher, but I have to agree with you, very unfortunately.

Furthermore I assert that grammer rules (get the spelling proper, please!!) nowhere apply any more.

Ten national research scientists at Oxford jumped on the throne speech of the Queen of England made in 2007, and found the following in it:

- two dangling particples, and four unidentifiable field servants not on the payroll of that palace yet who keep eating her food;
- five awkward constrcuts and an ember comb of a dead daughter-in-law in the turtle soup;
- two and a half misplaced antecedents, and one "their" for "him", and two "himselfs" instead of the proper "themself";
- seventeen backformations, and an orthopeadic backrest;
- two run-in sentences and some bloody noses.


This was, however, none near as appalling as the state of Union address by ex president George W. Bush, who has the excuse of belonging to a very violent species of azz-pick monkeys of North Golgota Mountains of the Gorilla Heights in the Himalayas.
