I'm crying for attention and 5000th post celebrations, but nuthin'

[Melodybe]

no one is responding to my long and confusing post dedicated to my 5000th post. Have I been such a hanous bitch lately that no one likes me anymore?

Well, if that is the way of it then feel free to get it all out and totally ripp my post to shreads.

Post something, I put a lot of thought into it.

1. Hun, you posted at 2:30 in the morning

Most folks are in bed. Just us screwballs still around this late.

Hopefully someone will give it a kick for the morning folk.

2. Hey I know, I'm a screwball night owl myself

Although, I long for attention and accolades, I do understand that 2:30 in the morning isn't really the best time to ask for them.

I can't help that some of my best thinking comes in the early am hours.

3. Little Clarkie, you took the words right out of my mouth....

It's 12:30 even out here in the far, far west (or far, far east, depending on your perspective), and I'm going to bed now. I've learned not to expect too much in the way of responses in the middle of the night.

5. That's an awful lot to read at 3:30am Darlin' here's a tip I got a few...

...weeks ago. Post that take real Brain-power (or take a while to read) are better posted in the morning (9:00am-12:00 Noon). It works great, lots of bored people at work.

Anyway, Cheers :toast:

Also: What's Oxford, Mississippi like these days? That town has quite a reputation.

Oh, and I have a short, but true story for you to tell in Mississippi. (It's sort of a Joke, but like I said, it is true.

I grew up in Northern Indiana, and my little sister had a male Friend who's name was Brent Sippi.

Now, guess what his mothers name was? (remember, in the 1970's, things were a bit more formal than they are today)

I'll check back in the morning to see if you got the answer.:evilgrin:

6. External validation...

...is a dead-end street. Find your contentment within yourself.

7. I know, it is one of the goals I hope to attain in this life.

As you can see, I'm not there yet.

however, congrats on your 5000th post.

13. WoW....When I grow up want to be just like you!

Congratulations!!!:toast:

[unhappycamper]

14. Morning crowd checking in.

Your post was right on the money. I'm not articulate enough yet (only one cuppa coffee) to post a reply. FYI, I nominated your post.

Hang in there; this nightmare will end. I just hope we have a country and Constitution when it does.

15. Congrats!

I've got a long way to go. BTW your posts are always educational and insightful. Thanks, you do an incredible job! :applause:

17. Here's the answer and another tip on getting attention

This is in reference to the True question I posted above

What was Brent Sippi's Mother's name?

A: Mrs. Sippi (Come on, Say it out loud or it will not make since!)

Oh, and Tip #2, If you want to get a LOT of replies like some DO get, you have to say some thing REALLY stupid, otherwise, you only get a few responses that say stuff like: Yes, Your Right, I agree...:boring:

Smart posts don't make for high reply counts.:evilgrin:
