And, as much as I despise that children's song & dance, it is always much better to be the cheese because you get to be the farmer the next time around. So, it's not so bad... I never got any of that stuff, and never played any of those games. Nobody could explain the purpose, so I didn't. :p I suppose no one finds that too surprising! :p Now, "Hide and Seek" made lots of sense. I always used that as an occasion to "wander off"--and consequently, I was never allowed to play. (My mother would scream "You weren't playing HIDE AND SEEK with him, were you???!!!!") I once hid under the porch of a vacant house overnight. Everybody hyperventilated over that, but I thought it was pretty neat! Nobody appreciated my superior hiding abilities. :p I often think: in the modern inner-city, I'd probably die before I was 5 years old. I'm fortunate this was still the early 60s. _________________________ "I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity."--Edgar Allen Poe

I hated all the children's games and Hide & Seek in particular. My sisters and their friends would lure me into that game and then never look for me! After an eternity of hiding, I would come out and discover they had taken the opportunity to go to someone else's house. _________________________ "A lot of things were acceptable--until we stopped accepting it." -- Al Sharpton '12

I think animals have respect for certain other animals. Our wolfy dog was friends with both the weener and the cat. Weener and the cat hate each other. Respect. I believe that to be the basic foundation of a true friendship. True, respect can be extended beyond one's friends

flicka flicka Member Registered: 04/06/00 Posts: 24616 Loc: SLO County, CA - 66.122.77.142	I think respect is an attitude rather than a behavior. To me, "friend" is a word that is loosely thrown around. I use it a lot to describe someone I know, rather than using the term "aquaintance". So, I can say I have lots of friends, but in reality there are only a few people who I consider close to me. _________________________ "A lot of things were acceptable--until we stopped accepting it." -- Al Sharpton '12

Susan, I don't care for your behind scenes tactics but you still don't deserve the harsh insults. You have a good heart and that over rules ALL. I have no doubt that you are a good friend. _________________________
