Al, your post would be more reader-friendly if you only capitalise the first word of every sentence. The way you have your post currently set up makes it hard for the rest of us to read it. :)

I was elaborating on my thoughts for others who might be reading this thread. And I might have been working out my ideas for my ownself, too. You know,...thinking out loud

Yes, totally, me too :)

I ran across a posting on a blog community that I thought really illustrates my point. Here it is (from http://community.livejournal.com/customers_suck/):

Laurend...

Thanks for the link to the live journal community. Although it has absolutely nothing to do with this thread, I loved this post...

Dear Potential Mother-In-Law,

I hope to be introduced to you really soon now, so that if you ever show up unscheduled like that again, I won't have to spend two hours hiding in your son's closet.

Affectionately,

the pagan chick you won't approve of

Wow-- lets just kill all the babies! Oh wait a minute we already are doing that!

I guess if I had children like yours, I would stop having them too!

Whose children? To whom is this addressed?

I've hardly ever posted there, but I love reading the entries. It really makes you a lot more appreciative of customer service workers.

Say whut???

That is to say that some elaboration is required before we are able to understand the above-cited post. Whose kiddies?

I love it here in ND. We can afford to live in the country here and have horses and pets and enjoy some peace and quiet, yet drive 10 miles in to town and shop at nearly every major store you can imagine. We have it all. OK so I will admit, winter was a little long and crazy this year.... but... I really like it here in ND.

Hi Fluffy!

What I meant by my post that you quoted was the particular town I live in, not North Dakota as a whole. I like North Dakota, born and raised here, but the town I live in sucks. I wouldn't mind living in Grand Forks, but I would LOVE to move to Fargo, maybe some day....right now I am over an hour away from really good shopping, and I love to shop!!

My Mom lives by Hazen, it is really pretty country over there, here it is flat flat flat....

Anyway, just wanted you to know that! It's always nice to see other North Dakotans here!!

I lived over by Lisbon for a short time. I hated it. Absolutely HATED IT. I lived in Dickinson for most of my life, actually lived in Hazen too and have a lot of family there. Anyway, now in Bismarck and love it. I went to college in Fargo and it was a hard time in my life...... dirt poor, starving college student, ya know, didn't help my impression of the town much. But At least there are a lot of things going on there.

I loved the Coen brothers' movie set in North Dakota, you know, Fargo....

I must make one thing clear....WE DO NOT TALK LIKE THAT!!!! It is soo frustrating because people might really think that is how we talk!

It was a great movie, aside from that! They shot some scenes here, I remember driving by the upside down car on the way to work for quite a few days, that was from the part where the car rolled over into the ditch and the guy shot the two people. Oh, and the statue of Paul Bunyan was set up over by a little town about 10 miles from me. It was really cool!

Missy is RIGHT ON THE MONEY! We absolutely DO NOT talk like that. The only time I ever say "Yeah, You Betcha!" Is when I am making fun of that movie. It's really very poorly represented "us" in that way, even though it was a work of fiction (somehow folks seem to think that part of it is true, we all talk like that and listen to accordion music). The other thing is, the only part of the whole movie that was even IN north dakota was the shot in the bar in Fargo. Why they named the whole movie Fargo is beyond me.

On a really funny side note, my dad is an accordion player and king of polka music. SERIOUSLY. LOLLLLLLLLLL!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
