1. I edit but I don't always feel the need to explain why.

5. One small question.
As freedom loving folk, will we be allowed to rise up in bloody revolution and kill the dictator?

This does have some bearing on how I will answer.

6. I'm the Queen of editing
Usually it's for spelling (just can't stand to see a mispelled word), but it's also because I tend to build my messages by adding things (thoughts, additional articles, pictures, etc.) after my initial post.

I think of of my posts as a work in progress...like a painter applying color to a canvass. So I don't concern myself with how others may interpret my edits...it's ART! But if you see one of my posts go up, better wait the full length of the editing period to read it (or go back to the intitial post often for updated info).

Just a personality quirk I guess.

7. LOL! First rule of thumb....know thyself. And recognise that others

may not quite know what to make of you.

Suspicious?

Now jpgray, you have missed my point entirely. I don't change the original intention of my post, or change the message entirely. I ADD additional meanings.....like this.

A 'tire iron'.....lol! I'm SUPEREDITOR!

A final Edit: I did enjoy this little exercise jpgray. Very clever!
Until next time..........:hi:
