from bindyree :
okay these seem to be working properly again
from bindyree :
Also, apologies all over the place if you are experiencing any Mysterious Advertising site kidnapping. I have nothing to do with it.
from melodymetuka :
I just wanted to say that I'm sorry that things are so hard, and I wish you all the best. May you have a full and complete recovery.
from minstrelite :
Brin - Long time. I was just thinking about you yesterday, and wondering if you were well. I am beginning to do better. I don't have clinical depression, but I definitely have bipolar disorder - which includes, as you know, many ups, downs, and in betweens. I don't remember what was going on last time we talked. A few months ago I found a transcript of a chat we had. It was thought-provoking enough that I took the liberty of posting it on a blog (url above), along with a correspondence between me and my brother Steve on the same subject. These conversations occurred around 2008. I had meant to confer with you prior, or at least shortly thereafter. I hope I wasn't too presumptuous. Definitely it paints you in a highly positive light. Otherwise, I am back in Burlingame, where I lived and worked for many years. My daughter is not doing too well. I lived with her for a while in Guerneville. Write to me when you can. I think of you from time, always with warmth. Andy
from bindyree :
Oh, wow, he still targets Pagans, does he? Interesting! I wonder what he's found in that group that appeals to him instead of something more mainstream. Hm! Anyway, I appreciate the heads up. Thanks!!!
from missmaggie03 :
Oddly it was a pagan group too, I just happened to be looking at the member list to see if there were any folks near me and there he was. Let's just say after the name, location, age and 'cat sanctuary' clicked in my head, my poor monitor got a spit bath.
from bindyree :
I just wrote you a big long thing that was supposed to post to *my* notes wall and there it is on yours instead. Ack! Anyway, watch out for that miserable little training wheel of a human being; I haven't thought about that waste of protoplasm in many months. As long as he's at large and still looking for victims, there will be folks like you and folks like me who won't give him a chance to succeed. Thanks for the heads up!
from missmaggie03 :
You're not gonna believe this, but I think I just found the imposter in one of the groups I belong to on FB...eek!
from musikoid :
Hey I'm glad you're all right, old friend! I've missed you and have been wondering. Feel free to read me (or not to read me) as you so choose. Password is rational / recovery -- subject to change. I'm Andy.
from thepeachtree :
Your the only one online, i think i could use a read right now. Thanks.
from minstrelite :
Sure thing. :)
from minstrelite :
I saw the banner with the verbs removed or replaced and somehow knew it would be you. :)
from bornearly :
Regarding podcasts -- I highly recommend Radio Lab, from NPR, if you don't get it already. A fascinating diversity of topics, scientific, marvellous, human. :)
from kittenlil :
Hey stranger :) Was going through some bookmarks the other day and found the link to my old diaryland page. I had forgotten I even had it. I think I sort of hid from it for a while because I used it during my separation and subsequent attempt at finding happiness, which didn't work out so well. But I found it again today and downloaded all of my entries. I may remove them from the site soon and maybe start over, or maybe just remember the time fondly and move on. Not sure yet. Either way, I wanted to say hi :) I see you are still updating. That is awesome. Merry Christmas
from acornotravez :
Hi Brin! Yeah, it's a pretty nasty laceration. Ugh! I do hope the scar is cool. The ER people said it's cooler than having a tatoo because there's a story behind it. We'll see! (PS sorry about band practice, that sucks!) -Aims
from minstrelite :
Thanks for the note, Brin! It's only on Fridays at least so far. But I'm not going to knock an extra $200/mo. plus tips, doing what I love. Have a wonderful Easter, or corresponding event, if it applies.
from minstrelite :
Wow, I just saw your penultimate note (from me) prior to this one. Not one of my fondest memories, but a lot of people have it a lot worse. Anyhoo, I'm just writing to say hello, and that I'm in good spirits these days, relatively tranquil, and relatively non-impoverished. We ought to meet at the Wellbucks sometime soon. Hope all is well with you and the bass. - Andy
from urbancadence :
Thank you SO much for your very comforting words. You're right - no matter what anybody tells me, it's gonna hurt for as long as it takes. And I now accept that I did the right thing, but am still haunted by the fact that my best wasn't good enough for her. Nevertheless, grieving is a normal process, and I will eventually get back up on my feet. In the meantime, my spirits are lifted by words from kind souls like yourself. Thank you SO much - I really REALLY appreciate your concern and comfort. Give Repaired Cat an extra big hug the very next chance you get :)
from minstrelite :
I can't believe I wasn't backing it up as I was writing it - 250 meaasures of music, GONE! I am completely out of my head!!!
from mel-is-dvash :
I checked my receipts and it looks like the donation didn't go through the first time - so I did it again. Hopefully you will have it now. Sorry 'bout that. Oy, and my email doesn't seem to be working at the moment, hence the note.
from whystinger :
St Obama takes a page out of Joe Biden's book and tickles his tonsils with his toes...
from urbancadence :
Ha! I've been holding my breath ever since last night, not wanting to expel the celebrity air molecules... but I'm turning purple, and purple just isn't my color, so I think I'm gonna have to breathe again! :-P
from urbancadence :
I sure hope your optimism reflects the truth of the situation regarding Prop 8! :-) But yes, a president who can speak in complete COHERENT sentences. Who won't choke on a pretzel. And most importantly... one who can friggin' pronounce the word "nuclear" correctly! GOOOO OBAMA! :-D
from bindyree :
I know, hon, me too. But as with Prop 22, it will be overturned by a judicial panel because it's unconstitutional. It just takes time.
from urbancadence :
I'm so bummed out about Prop 8's passage :'-(
from bebegracie :
You're an absolute star. Thank you so much! xxx
from bindyree :
Egads, my dear, I can't find it either; I haven't done it in about three years! I wonder if it even exists anymore!?? I will keep looking! xoxo Brin
from bebegracie :
Question as I thought you might know the answer being a diaryland old timer. I remember you used to be able to download your diary as a document so you could save it. Do you know how to? Hope you're well :) xx
from bindyree :
Thank you for your note! :)
from curiouoso :
That should have said, " I can hear the ocean too,...." Curiouoso*
from curiouoso :
Hey I;m going to leave you a note/.... it's a b flat can you here it? can the ocean too, if only in my mind. Thanks for reading me. Curiouoso8
from minstrelite :
I agree with you and your husband regarding the "family of choice," however I don't think that our biological families come into being by chance. If that were the case, my daughter and I wouldn't be so similar (for example) in mannerism, sensibility, etc. There are too many commonalities, genetic and otherwise, among birth family members for these things to be considered coincidence. (In my opinion, of course).
from plopphizz :
Hi :)
from urbancadence :
Oh trust me, I am *this* close to throwing him the ultimate surprise party - with the surprise being THERE IS NO PARTY! Man! It's a good thing that the restaurant we'll be at has the best (and strongest) cocktails. I'm gonna need it!
from whystinger :
I used to read your diary a while ago. Your new banner did draw me in... as far as the CD project, I assume you were doing nudes for your hubby/significant other. My experience is thus: most men enjoy seeing their naked women, even if they are overweight. We are comfortable with you and love your bodies more than you think. Some of use realize we are starting to bald, growing out own paunch and generally are not the hot thing we used to bo (or thought we were). We do still look upon our women with the same lust and zeal. Afterall, you were hot to us back then and now you are still hot to us. While a hot, young shapely thing is nice to look at, we still want and crave our partners. When the relationship is a wonderful one, why look elsewhere...
from minstrelite :
I got your note, and thanks, Brin. I'll look forward to hearing whatever you have to say, at any time.
from anthronut :
I just wanted to tell you that one time I went on an Alaskan cruise and we stopped in a one street (but there were a couple REALLY small streets to the side...mostly one street) with the boat docks at one end and trees at the other end...and I got lost. I came out of a store and for some reason, did see straight down the street where ALL the huge cruise ships were docked and I had to ask for help and the guy thought I was being a punk ass kid...Totally about had a panic attack. Anyway. :) So there are at least two of us!
from minstrelite :
You sure know how to get someone to click on a banner. Think I'll go off and find myself too. Hold the fort while I'm gone, OK?
from bantenhut :
no no no no, it's not just you. :)
from curiouoso :
"Holy moley, another person who "groks" Keith Jarret!" And Robert Heinlien to boot! Good night Bindy! Curiouoso*
from curiouoso :
Came bye due to your banner. FF is the ugliest and stupidist person on TV. (My opinion only, though if any one doesn't agree, I suggest a shrink!) He looks like a lost Berkely Street person from the 60's, still trying to get in little white hippie girls pants. Come bye and visit my pages now and then, We run in the same crowd (diaries) a lot. Curiouoso*
from minstrelite :
Thanks for the amnesty -- I was worried there for a while (although I, too, suspected I wouldn't quite make the fit.) ;)
from samson111 :
enjoyed reading your diary..........
from bindyree :
Test to see if note notifications are working
from hissings :
username: wannabe password: sedated
from ash-ph0enix :
Your banner's eyes looked so much like my mom's eyes that I had to click.
from minstrelite :
I can no longer rationalize. I need to figure out a way to get out of my living situation as soon as possible. It's taking all my energy to retain a semblance of sanity in this environment. I also locked my diary, so write me for the username/password if you want to read it.
from minstrelite :
The day wasn't half bad. I didn't see my stepdaughter, but I chilled out for a while, and also found a nice sweater at the train station in Mountain View -- it was clean too, and fit me perfectly. Someone had abandoned it there. Met a nice lady there too and got her number. And saw my best friend. Trying to slow down and keep it simple.
from bindyree :
That's a good idea. If your s.daughter has a calming influence on you, yes, give her a shout. Also, good for you for spending time in a library; I'll bet it's nice and quiet. :)
from minstrelite :
I'm not at home anyway. I'm hanging out at one of the mid-Peninsula libraries, contemplating whether or not to head up to the City. I've still got a bunch of money on my BART ticket. It might help to see my stepdaughter if she's not too busy, as she tends to have a calming influence on me. Otherwise, I feel like I keep doing stupid things that wind up making me paranoid, and what you said about a support group is really key. I don't feel like I have one, or if I do, I don't know who they are.
from bindyree :
I went ahead and added you; my Yahoo is finicky, so don't worry if I re-add you every so often.
from minstrelite :
Brin, I tried to add you on Yahoo chat -- not to be a permanent thing, but it just might make it easier to talk for a morning or two. I don't use the chat server with regularity except to talk with my daughter.
from diary--user :
I have to say I love your banner. That was genius.
from mordorr :
like saying yoko ono was a beatle.. haha, love it.
from pyroguysr :
Saw the eclipse but had a difficult time enjoying it due to the horrid amount of "global warming" that kept freezing my butt off. It was lovely. *shakes head over your delivery dilemma* I don't know that I would have worded it so tersely, but I hope it gets them to change their policy.
from janetplnetoc :
I'm glad d'land is finally doing something real to protect us from grounduplunchmeat comments, but it doesn't seem to let REAL people leave them either.... WTF. Trying again here. And coming from the claims specialization of the insurance industry myself, I would also like to note that their "delivery location" has violatged HIIPA laws regarding Protected Health Information (PHI). Violation of privacy laws come with hefty fines. Slap that on them, I guarantee you won't have this problem again.
from minstrelite :
Well, the original note you left did strike me (to my perception, which of course was subjective, and based on limited information) as mean-spirited. But if you say it wasn't, I'll believe you. I do admit I got a little agitated over it, and it is quite possible that the agitation increased between the time I left the note on my site, and on yours. However, I'm no longer agitated, and I'm content with your admission that the error was not of my own making. Peace.
from bindyree :
Yeah, that struck me as odd. Although I have to come to his's defense here and say that people are allowed to portray themselves however they wish in a diary, especially a passworded one. I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he calmed down between the note he left here and the note he left on his own site. :-D
from foundertruth :
Hey, did anybody else notice that this guy was ruder to you over here than he was over on his own site?
from bindyree :
(And here is the original note that caused Minstrelite's response:)"I can't imagine what's in the head of somebody who submits banners from a passworded site. Why are you doing that?"
from bindyree :
(copied from response left at Min's site): I wasn't rude, as you stated in your note to me. I was curious. Believe me, good sir, you'll know when I'm rude, I heartily assure you. And it also sounds like a mistake not of your making, so that answers my question! Thank you. :-)
from minstrelite :
Pardon me, but if I'm not mistaken, you left me a rather rude note that I am not clear on whether to take seriously. Isn't it obvious that when I submitted those banners, the diary was unlocked? Why the heck would anyone submit banners from a passworded site? For the record, I must have submitted the banners over a month ago, and I have no idea why they're still running. I think Andrew must have given me an extra number of views. So may I ask you why you left that note?
from bornearly :
Ohhhh, about the html thing. Why didn't I just go to you first? Silly me. Thanks for the tip.
from katbox :
Hi. I am 4 days into Diaryland. I added you to my favorite diarys. The fact that I can e-mail the pope clinched it! Thanks for the laugh.:)
from pyroguysr :
Thanks for the note. I figured the same and she denies it vociferously. *shrugs* I will try to convince my son that he can do better. *reads the previous comment* What's so unusual about a Pagan Republican? I'm one... but I put it in small letters: "pagan *libertarian* republican/conservative" *grins*
from sunstargirl :
Are you really a republican Pagan? What an unusual combination of beliefs! Cheers.
from bornearly :
Brin, I am touched and humbled and don't know what to say. Thank you. I was having a pissy morning until just now when I read your note. Thanks for healing this moment, kind one.
from bindyree :
Yes, not a problem at all!
from hadassah :
Hi brin, I have a huge favor to ask. If I send you a rough copy can you help me with another banner?Pretty please
from acornotravez :
Ever since we got a new computer, I'm unable to leave you comments. They just never load... it's a mac. I'll probably figure this new computer out soon enough, it's just different than a pc, as you well know. So far, I really like it. Anyway, just wanted to say hello. I loved your entry on the weekend you spent with you mom's friend, sounds like you had a perfect moment together, that's really, really cool.
from pyroguysr :
Hmmmm... I don't recall anyone being physically hurt or killed because of Don Imus' words. But Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton's words have caused riots and caused people to be killed. Where are the apologies from them? Why are THEY still on the radio? *rolls eyes* The "double-standards" they talk about has done a 180 and it's not pretty.
from bindyree :
yes, you're right, which means no group is safe and taht African American basketball playing females were NOT singled out as you alleged in your comments. It also proves once and for all that Al Sharpton is a racist since he decided that only ONE segment of the human race was worth standing up for. Yeah SURE you're done. :-)
from smedindy :
Oh, and Imus has called Arabs "ragheads", called respected sports columnist Bill Rhoden "A quote hire" and called Gwen Ifill "a cleaning lady". Funny? Dunno. A pattern? Could be. There. I'm done.
from ehays :
Here's hoping you're having a wonderful day. Bright Blessings on you and all your loved ones. Luff~Erin
from studio-66 :
Hiya, just wanted to wish you & your family a wonderful Christmas & a Healthy & Happy New Year!! Luv; Julia
from banefulvenus :
stop by and check out my newest project. : ) http://www.chickenscratchonacocktailnapkin.com
from spazs :
I can�t comment! You know you had me trying as long as I found out what the color of your underwear is, and, could it really be it....
from flanderman :
Brin; sorry I forgot your anniversary after all the fuss about geting those dates from you & John. Hope it was a happy one. Fred
from clipchick :
You have an excellent point, but I'm working on staying current! Thanks for your understanding, and a very happy anniversary, sans e-card, of course! ;)
from clipchick :
Thanks for the update on the Project from the Runway. It was nice of you to keep me updated, and I appreciate it. By the way, I noticed that I was no longer a favorite of yours. It's because of my bad breath and B.O., right? If it's any other reason, please let me know-I'd hate to have bummed you out for any reason. I know I dropped off of updating for a while, but I've got an awful entry right now concerning early marriage blues and maggots. Nice mix, eh?
from annanotbob :
I came across you while browsing and feeling very sorry for myself. Your kindness, which shines through your writing, has lifted my spirits, for which I thank you. I don't have any credit cards so can't send cash to your friend, but I'm sending my prayers, such as they are. And I'm adding you to my favourites. I wish you peace xx
from fishowiz :
Brin, its Kat, I'm back from the dead. I left mike Nov 2005 and moved near where Rosie Ravy used to live... Write me back!
from banefulvenus :
Holy crap! You totally have a point there! You totally get this! You are sooooo right! Holy crap, you are so right!

Keane review: http://www.chartattack.com/DAMN/2006/06/2001.cfm
from studio-66 :
Hi, just wanted to let you know that the new Keane album is sooo good!! I'm not sure if its been released yet over here? i got it in the mail courtesy of my friend in the UK. Song #2 on the album is reminiscent of the songs on their first album. Anyways, later; Julia
from yibba :
thanks for the happy birthday wish! :-D
from minstrelite :
I just love San Francisco! Wish I were still there. (Sigh.)
from orgami :
Hello Bindyree authors bend and invent untruths like the racket men of the old west selling salves and bitters they were called snake oil salesmen and people dazzled that they are by any speil were caught like deer in the headlights of an approaching vehicle Was on the Olympic Pennisula in 1986 or 1987 and it was beatiful sitting on the beach against the old saltwashed logs and making a fire with the mountians of Rainier in the back ground Sitka spruce the cold water of the Pacific I close my eyes and I can still feel that space that time Anyway I am here in Ontario Canada in a small city called North Bay we have a lake and its called Nippissing and we have pagans here too but I myself dont know any personally I am ojibway with some scotch from my grandmother so I figure I have the native spiritual side and the ancient scots side (whatever that may be) I am writing because I saw your banner and you mentioned seeing the ocean and it just reminded me of that time I was out west with my sister and brother in law and neices So its a nice association you have given me a break from my day to day here so enough said Just thought I would leave you a note ...O....
from realsnoopy :
I completly agree with your entry.
from bebegracie :
Thats the one! One day I WILL go there!
from whystinger :
Actually, I thought this was Rush's second bust and figured his goose was cooked, but it turns out that it is from his first ordeal and they have stretched it out for the past three years... Bizarre, no???
from realsnoopy :
Hi- just started reading you! Added you to my favorites!
from sohvakettu :
thanks much! i'm glad someone is getting something out of it apart from the finnish-speaking community. who knows, maybe i'll keep the english up since finnish seems to be as much out of my system as a working gut flora...and this comes late, but anyway: reasonably huge birthday wishes.
from alwaysmuted :
I LUVS YA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! *HUGS*
from nakedlife05 :
hey pretty lady, I was just making sure you were aware I'd used your "42 things you never knew about me" idea. I listed my own of course, and I gave you credit for the idea in the entry before. I jsut thought it was neat but I saw what you had on your profile and just wanted to make sure your aware I gave you credit for the idea. :) You're an amazing writer :)
from divacowgirl :
Sounds like a great idea.
from lehzincal :
Well Brin, darling... You've inspired me to start my own diaryland page... I'm LehzInCal ;)
from dinosaurorgy :
You're welcome - it was an interesting thing to read, honestly. (The 42-things-about-Brin page.)
from yoyotech :
The worst think about having bad hearing is if you're talking to foreighn people and you dont hear what they say, they think you're being racist, or ignorant, rather than suffering the punishment of too many Raves. Jeez!!
from icbtwwliog :
how did you find that survey i posted, I don't think anyone has ever answered it and it's like 2 years old. Crazy. Anyway, thanks for your time. boat drinks.
from yoyotech :
Heh that guy looks like a security guard I used to know at some biker club. Hefty bastard! Whoever started on him must've been pretty stupid..
from acornotravez :
Hola! Happy New Year to you, too. -Acorn
from banefulvenus :
yes, that answer will work too. : )
from banefulvenus :
Thank you so much for your kind note! I always enjoy your site! : )
from boogityx2 :
Now I really want to steal your stuff just so that I could be spent on a whore. You mean "spent" as in "tired" and "on" as in "atop," right? Anyway, you might care about this if you haven't seen it already: http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2006/01/0308.cfm
from requiel :
Awww, you are so sweet! Thanks to you too! I hope this year brings you everything you could ever want!
from sohvakettu :
I guess that hatred for Crazy frog speaks an universal language...They really, really should make the torture stop already. Anyway, happy new year, blessed be, I'm flattered to be on your buddy list*
from slywy :
Happy New Year to you, too! (Yours seems to have gotten off to a flying start! ;))
from studio-66 :
I wish you all the best in 2006!! luv n hugs from Julia *great to know you too :)*
from bebegracie :
Why thank you! Heres to another Year! x x x
from pyroguysr :
If we always agreed, bindy, we'd become boring! Here is to a successful, profitable, and healthful 2006. Blessed be as well! AND two of my "boys" are home from Iraq!!! Only two more to go (though technically, one is a girl)
from ladyvaduva :
awwww *blushes!* I'm glad ur on my buddy list too!! have a wonderful new year.. piles of best wishes.. and all the best! thanks again for stoppin in!! :-)
from yibba :
And a wonderful 2006 to you as well! Happiness and joy and all kindsa food stuff to you and yours... :-)
from nilliem :
What a marvelous thing to find first thing New Year's Day! You give good note, lol. I love reading you, but especially the Denny's stories...lots of time spent there in the before kids era. Happy New Year to you and yours!
from onewetleg :
I had a feeling the blogger wasn't compatible with mac. they say it is. I researched it and was assured that it would be but I had a feeling it wouldn't. well, dammit.
from bindyree :
Yes, it's all completely evil. But WOW is it GOOD! When I fall over dead of that heart attack, they're going to find an intact bacon and mayo sandwich lodged in my innards somewhere.
from yoyotech :
Bacon and mayonaise!? Doesent that kinda..make the bacon feel..healthy? That sounds like a bad thing. A very. bad.thing.
from bornearly :
Thank you for that info and suggestion. Just the impetus I needed to make the choice I really wanted in the first place. :)
from bindyree :
When people get killed for political reasons, that's an assassination. We had federal marshals on those planes because terrorists struck in the USA. Those terrorists disagreed with our international politics, because we dare to try and introduce concepts like democracy to countries that haven't had such priveleges in many years. Had those marshals not been on the plane, that man would likely still be alive. By extrapolation, the mentally ill man was assassinated. It's convoluted, but I don't think it's an incorrect use of the word.
from pyroguysr :
I'd say using the word "assassinated" to be a somewhat biased word. He was "NOT" assasinated, he was shot dead AS A TERRORIST for threatening the lives of dozens of people by a person that had to make a split-second decision. If it had been a REAL terrorist (vs being a fatally stupid terrorist wannabe) and he had "only wounded" the assassin, still allowing him to detonate the device, the media would be bitching "Why didn't the Marshal shoot to kill like he's trained!??" It's far too easy to be an armchair quarterback, examining things at your leisure after the fact and say "oh, he could have done this or he could have done that. I repeat, Mr Looney was a candidate for the Darwin Awards. The man said there was a bomb in his bag, he refused to obey orders (what ever happened to respecting authority?) and he reached into the bag. I'd say that constitutes a deadly threat (or a death wish). And yes, the Marshal IS the victim here. He has to live with the fact that he shot what he THOUGHT was a terrorist and it ended up being just a nutcase instead. I'm all for comforting the Marshal and his family. In my book, the lunatic's wife was the one at fault for not force-feeding him the meds he was supposed to take and she should be slapped with a felony negligence suit. But I even find THAT whole concept of "he forgot to take his meds" to be highly suspect. Bipolar people do not become raving gooneybirds with the missing of one dose of meds. Not only do >>> I <<< suffer from the disorder, I've been around people with extreme cases of it. They get edgy, but not fatally stupid.
from willowfox :
I could be wrong about this, but I believe that your tattoo is some kind of Norweigan peace symbol. My cousin has a very similar one, and its beautiful, and this is the first time I've seen anything else like it. I *think* she said it was a Norweigan peace symbol. So if I'm right, then there's some more positive info. Congrats on your 1000th!
from randh :
You live in san fran eh? I'm in san jose. Not too far from you. Pretty awesome. Your diary rules, and your story about the stalker was awesome, very inspiring. I'll be adding you to my new reads. Thanks for being here!
from elgan :
Interstate 60 has arrived. Thankee so much! I'm looking forward to watching it.
from fan4 :
If Andrew accepted my payment method, maybe I would upgrade to gold. I would create a bunch of surveys and rings.
from elgan :
Aw. You know you didn't have to do that, but thanks muchly all the same. I'm looking forward to its arrival. Anytime I can do you a turn, just ask.
from pyroguysr :
I would point San Franciscans to the John Stuart Mill quote I put in my last diary entry. Seems they want all the privileges of membership without putting in any of the effort, to me. But, I bet, if it were proposed that SF unions submit to a "right to work" law that the city council would be up in arms!
from pyroguysr :
As a practitioner of the arcane that is extremely tolerant and will defend the right of ANY religion to practice, I find the fact that the person mentions that "in 1 AD, they (the followers of Pythagoreus) were a cult..." Well DUH, so were the CHRISTIANS! HELLO!! I dislike intolerance... anywhere. And I've run into my share of pundies as well!
from pyroguysr :
Prom Pix... oh, you were one of *THOSE* students... *grins*
from pyroguysr :
Take you off my list? Not on your life, sweetie! You're in the top 10 of "People I Still Want To Meet From The Net"! No, not until we are face-to-face, have a long, drawn out political arguement where you throw the expensive $16 foo foo drink in my face after I insult you, you then try to claw my eyes out and your hubby pulls you from me while kicking me in the groin, I pull out my NRA life membership badge, thinking it was my Visa card that I always keep next to my VFW Life membership badge, just wanting to pay for the damn drinks, but instead, spilling my Bacardi 151 rum onto my sleeve just as the guy next to me lights a cigarette and catches me on fire, causing the SF police to rush in, put out the fire and then arrest me for "illegal possession of a *fire arm*" *ducks at the bad joke*
from plopphizz :
Congrats, one of your older Halloween entries has been quoted: http://quoted.diaryland.com/HW_quotes.html. Thanks for the great writing. -- Ploppy.

Just started reading your diary but that is quite a tale. You can't choose your family I suppose (believe me, I know) but don't ever let them feel guilty for any of your actions, you've done more than enough for all of them. Good luck resolving it!
from myhappiness :
wooo..you gotta lot of info here. cool.

Fanks for adding me as a fave! -Acorn

Hi Bindy. I saw your banner. Don't go anywhere (my diary is permitted), and I'll be back.

Not only is Hostess putting caramel into Ho-Ho's, but Kellogs is making a "chocolate-caramel" Pop Tart. Both should be banned for orgasmic goodness.
from sohvakettu :
thanks for the feedback. i must be doing something right, if even non-finnish speakers give comments. i read your entries on a regular basis. they've often, if not saved my day, at least made it a great deal better. so thanks for that.
from patw-21 :
thanks for the note, we love the baby
from trezzy :
best banner ad ever.
from bindyree :
Yes, of course that's the penultimate excuse for missing work. No, he can't come in today. He's dead. If any of them lost family or homes, you bet they shouldn't be expected in. But what seems to have happened is that fewer and fewer able bodied NO police have been showing up. It's sad all around.
from divacowgirl :
There is talk that several members of the PD are actually deceased and unaccounted for.
from caffeinegeek :
NYPD looted after 9/11 too. Lots of stuff went missing from that mall. It barely even made the local papers though. I only know because I and my SO worked for the city at the time.
from bindyree :
"http://www.freewisdom.org/en/all/entries/2004/01/05/first_they_came_for" notes that the quote seems to be attributed to somebody names Peter Ellis. Future runs of this banner will include the attribution. :-)
from dannyboyk2 :
Regarding your banner: verbing indeed weirds language, but plagiarism is just silly. Or unfortunate.
from secret-sacy :
Tried to leave a comment but it didn't show up. I hope it's not on some sort of time delay, otheriwse this note is pointless. Just wanted to say "no worries" about my note, and I thought it was funny that you thought it was sweet. Your diary rocks as usual - you crack me up. Thank you!
from divacowgirl :
I'm glad you guys are having fun together.
from pyroguysr :
I misspoke. It wasn't Sakura (though it's on my list of "must get" anime), it was Steel Angel Kurumi... the last of the three DVD's. Now I have to buy the others... have to.... must! MUST!!! AAARRRGGGH! WHERE'D MY PAYCHECK GO!!!!!!!!
from trezzy :
Regarding your banner: tell you're friend they're a pescotarian.
from sexychica260 :
Hey there sweet Diary! Check mine out sometime too, and drop a note in my CBox!
from secret-sacy :
I can't believe you put a picture of Cojo in your banner! As for why Australians still go to Bali (without gladwrapping every piece of baggage they bring with them) is beyond me. I am Australian myself, but I refuse to be held accountable for my fellow national's stupidity. p.s. Nice diary, btw. Most diaries suck.
from studio-66 :
oh wow! glad you both are ok!!

from elgan :
My dear Brin, I've done it again. (sob!) I taped episode 12, and then set it up to tape #13, the season finale, not realizing it was going to be a two-hour show! So I have a tape with 12 and half of 13 on it! I feel just awful! I will send it to you anyway, but I will try to get the ones I missed for you, and the last episode as well. Just remind me which ones are missing. *looking sheepish here*

Sorry about all the typos. It's hot here!
from elgan :
Thanks for the note. I've reinstalled the whole system software package (5 floppies, how archaic) and it appear to be running fine. I just don't understand how these things happen, especially when I'm the only one using that computer, it's not connected to the internet, and there's now way it could have been corrupted by anything coming into it. Oh well. It sure beats doing it the old way.
from boogityx2 :
Guero is a fantastic CD. I like Girl and E-Pro and Black Tambourine and Qu� Onda Guero and Hell Yes and Farewell Ride but really it's all good.

from zockendland :
I came because of your cat-banner. Also, I talk to stuffed animals,too! Lion always on my case obout not killing that and why Can't I get off my butt and do something.

glad i could help. sorry it took so long to reply, i havent been here in a while.
from bluemeany :
Totally lovin the squirrel rant. I'm sure if any of them were reading it, they are now scared shitless. By the way, in order to get my husband to respond to my e-mails, I usually have to title them "Titties and Beer." You are not alone.
from lilraverboi :
hehe thanks :)

I love that poem! One of my old roommates and I had it hanging on our door for a year, and it was our golden standard for friendship. Thanks for bringing back the good old days!

from elgan :
You are not the only one who has had problems submitting a mini-saga. It is twocoffees who runs that page. I would suggest you leave her a note, or go check out zuzus-petals' notes page (you'll have to go down several notes) and find mine where I have left her a particular email address. I have not got twocoffees' permission to pass it out, so I am loathe to leave it all over diaryland.
from elgan :
You�re welcome!!!!!!
from ilmomof3 :
"if more Christians were actually Christians, the world would be a more peaceful place" Amen (heh) to that!
from london-times :
Hey thanks for welcoming me to your ring. I love Keane (I discovered them a little while back when I moved to London for Uni)! I'm from San Francisco too, I grew up in North Beach. Which part are you from? Also I see that you love Harry Potter (huge fan of the books myself). Did you happen to read my Index entry? Hehehe. . .
from charminggirl :
Gosh, I'm so sorry, I just looked about my entry about "someone" and it's went crazy here. My comments section on that one entry is insane. I hope it didn't cause you much chaos. Good thinking for taking my comment off. ;)
from pansycline :
you truly have the best banners ever. I've probably clicked on all of them!
from angeleyescia :
hey! u added me to ur fave diaries..just sayin hi!!
from iambucket :
Caught the banner too....and then clicked yer profile and read the threat you gave of putting me in your wallet and spending me on a whore which really got ahold of me, and then to see you are a STYX fan AND have the appreciation of "To Kill a Mockingbird" and the "Little Huse on the Prarie" books- I'm hooked! you've got me. I'm anticiapating reading more of you later this evening :-)
from candoor :

it was the britney spears banner that brought me.
from euphoria21 :
"Ah, the irony of ball players with no balls..." Priceless. Just dropped by after seeing your Keane banner; then I saw all of your other banners, good stuff. My coffee had a weird Monica Lewinsky aftertaste - not good.

I like the Martha Stewart banner, even though I'm a big fan of hers. She's a good thing.
from bindyree :
Thanks for the heads up. Operation Bugsmash was a success.
from hissandtell :
Have you bothered to read the review of your banners at badbanners' diary? (Gosh, I can tell from your notes below how unfunny people thought your Britney banner was - and I rather suspect your bunny-blackmail banner has been working very well for ages, too.) Snort. Love, R xxx
from ilmomof3 :
Hey! You mentioned me in your survey and I am WAY flattered! Thanks! And I didn't even know until after I filled out the survey and read the fun answers. :-)
from hissandtell :
Ha - needless to say, I had never heard of the "dogs in elk" story or I would have mentioned it. In fact, I'd never heard of another story like mine, or I wouldn't have bothered telling it! Love, R xxx

The banner you've made, the one with the tree guys, is it Keane? It looked like them but I wasn't sure. I love Keane and their music. Do you? :-)
from blacklist-05 :
the diary isn't supergold. you just have to go to "older entries" and look at the one on top. But to save you a trip: "A problem like..." was the title. As in, how do you solve *a problem like*.... <insert name here>. I Love You! Have a safe trip! Bring me back a bear disguised as a mouse!
from treedancer :
Greetings Bindyree, thankyou for finding my diary. Have read a few pages of yours - very interesting! It's always a pleasure to read such a diary. And, although you don't know me, please allow me to offer good thoughts to you with regards to your dad, as we have a date in common, the 29th also being my birthday. I will bookmark you. :)
from elgan :
I absolutely loved your mini-saga. Excellently done!
from charminggirl :
Bindyree - Hi I keep getting hits from your diary about a comment I made back in '03. It was http://bindyree.diaryland.com/030320_30.html Anyway, sorry about where it lead, I guess lots of people commented to it. I've gotten a lot of emails about it too. That one comment put James Hopkins in google and now he's going to be back at the site making it ugly. Sorry about that.

Thank you so much for your kind note. Buddy Boy is much better. I wanted to drop you a line as well congratulating you on your scale victory. I am totally rooting for your continued diminution!
from bornearly :
What a wonderful dream about seeing your younger self. I used to play a game when I hiked often in the woods: I'd imagine coming upon myself as a child or a young teenager, walking the towards me. Then I'd try to imagine what wise things I would say to her, to let her know everything would be all right. Later I amended the game to include encountering an older me, who would give ME advice to get through the present.

CANADA CANADA CANADA CANADA CANADA also I had to watch that goddamn Dallas reunion and I didn't goddamn watch the show the first time around so why I had to watch the goddamn reunion show is beyond me (but secretly JR was pretty awesome and bad ass)

Well, I'll be jiggered. How did you even figure that out? Did you count them? Thanks for being on the ball, and thanks also for your mention the other day (after Black Tuesday). I love your diary as well, the landscape of your life.

from dark-doll :
That's a funny banner :P
from ocg :
and because I'm a TOTAL dork, I wrote the wrong title of the album... HOPES AND FEARS. (I must have been thinking about my hopes and dreams of having their babies.) Are all of their records this good?
from ocg :
Ok, because I had read of them on your website, I finallly went out an bought Keane's Hopes and Dreams. And now? I would have their babies, if they wanted. Wow! Haven't had a record I absolutely adored this much in YEARS! Thanks!
from requiel :
The camera loves you too sweetie, you look great! I have the Looney Tunes collection, I didn't know there were more than one set. There is also a new dvd called Looney Tunes Stranger than Fiction. Luv ya!

from hamiltonian :
I have many sunset pics and love yours. I love the ones I took in MALTA the most. How did you get that pic in your link at the bottom? The link that provides to diaryland, your profile, getting a new journal, and new entries by diarylanders. I have to do that too!
from hamiltonian :
how did you get the sunset in there? I am drooling over it, and must find out how to have that!

thanks for the keane update! you're awesome!
from studio-66 :
first off..thanx for the tip on Keane being on Dave Letterman!! when i saw them on Jimmy Kimmel..they played Somewhere Only We Know & then when they started playing Everybody Changes, the show cut them off right when Tom began to sing. You should go for that funky hairstyle!! Love the amazing landscape pictures where you live!! see ya.

Cheers for the heads up about Keane tomorrow night. My roommate and I are total fans, so thankfully I'll get to watch it!!! Thanks!

from leslieirene :
Hi there! Sorry for having taken so long to reply to your note. I have not been well lately. Anywho, back in 1984, I was not anywhere near the skating afficianado that I am now! I have no clue as to where to find T & D's "Bolero" performance; however, I'm sure that Google can offer you some insights. For my part, I am really wanting a copy of the 1994 Games. Now that I am knowledgeable, I want to compare Kerrigan and Baiul in the free skate! I have never been a Kerrigan fan, but still, I would like to know if she really deserved the gold! Sorry I was not of more help to you. Good luck! Love, Leslie :)

from danglemyfeet :
Oy. luv, where have you been all the OTHER days I went to SF? Actually, I may or may not have seen you at the Tea Gardens on my tourist day, but I wasn't sure, and I didn't want to run up to a total strager and cry out "Brin??? It's me, danglemyfeet! How crazy to see you?" Because then, they would tote me off to the loony bin: no fun at all.
from studio-66 :
thank you so much for adding me back :)
from studio-66 :
A friend of mine from the UK taped me Keane's album & since then i've been hooked! Did you catch their live performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live? Me & my friend both find Tom Chaplin sexy! Anyways, i read your diary & i feel the same way as you do about Paul Hamm. He should not be forced to give back his gold medal..he earned it & it was not his fault if the judges mucked up the whole thing! i'm just so pissed off at the judging when it comes to gymnastics & for that matter, figure-skating! Why should he have to give it up..its just not fair to him or to the other competitors. Also, i was equally disappointed at the judging at the men's vaults! i think when they say that Paul Hamm should be fair, i think they should mean the judges..i think they're the ones who should play fair! anyways, i like your diary a lot & i will add you. :)
from hissandtell :
Hello, darling - I was so thrilled to get your note this morning! Amazingly, I was thinking about you yesterday. How weird is that? I'm looking forward to catching up on your older entries and keeping up with your new ones. Love, R xxx

Cotton candy DOES fix things! Plus I had food on a stick (a hot dog, not a deep fried Twinkie , but I swear they had them) and kettle corn. Also there were car races where one car flipped over and on set on fire in the demolition derby; no injuries! But anyways.. It's quite true that cotton candy will make one forget about financial hardships such as fraud!

from go-thing :
I read your diary a lot (not in a creepy stalker way) so I figured I'd leave a message and say hi, just so you can read it and hopefully feel special because some stranger said hello to you. I had a few other names at d-land but I managed to lock myself out of them if the name Nelle sounds familiar. Feel special! Nelle
from betchy :
hello, saw you listed as a fave by onewetleg, and because i love her, and she loves you, i figured i'd love you too. does that make sense? anyway, read your last 5, think you're hilarious, and am going to add you to my faves. hope thats o.k. check me out sometime if you get a chance, i'm going to raid your faves now, and see who else i can meet. take care, beckz x

Which Mac do you still hang on to? Apart from the Quadra 650, we also have a vintage MacSE: �the last computer you�ll ever need�!

Oops! I meant Ilia Kulik's triple axel, not lutz! I miss G&G. I have the tribute tape after he died. I cry everytime I watch it. Michelle will always be my #1. Wow! You must say at least "hi" to Brian Boi. You know, he adores Michelle!
from leslieirene :
I owe you some favorite skates. I have so many tapes of events on file; it's so difficult to pick one. I did get to see Ilia do his suspended triple lutz right in front of me during "Rhapsody in Blue"- COI in Fresno. It was magical. I need to think more. No one tops MK in my book, but she needs to watch out for Sasha, and Japan's Shisuka Arakawa's ground-breaking *triple-lutz triple-toe double- loop combination*. Evegeny Pleshekno is the only other skater I know who does combo's like that!
from banefulvenus :
still love your site. I found paradise on a beach in koki point. http://banefulvenus.diaryland.com/040503_38.html

from requiel :
Grrr... I hate the old people at the end of my street that yell at my kids to stay off the lawn, what do they want them to do during the 10 min. they are waiting for the bus? Do they think that walking on it is going to kill the grass? If that were so then everyone who has kids wouldn't have any grass! Duh. I hate people's intolerence for children. I'm totally going to rant in my diary about this. Then maybe when I'm old I won't be the mean old lady that yells at all the nighborhood kids.
from wench77 :
Hey! thanks for doing my gettinolder survey! (damn it takes so much time to read all these! why do I write them!!)... Yup, I think that not understanding any hip hop speakers is a sign of aging! hehe. Quizilla makes me feel old cuz I never know any of the celebrities, songs, tv shows or movies. eep! LOL! "looking forward to making children stay off my lawn"!! ROFL! "too old to do anything that involves my asshole higher than my head" hehe! Why? cuz you'd get your second chin back?!!

Oh boy, you've been reviewed by a 14-year-old! How many can say that? Maybe I should send her my albums. (Mmm... maybe MONKEYS WILL FLY OUT OF MY BUTT.) Ignore the wastrel and keep up your good work.

Hi sweetie. I loved talking to you last night.I was devirginized...you tart you..LOL.Hope we can talk again soon:)
from bornearly :
Oh no, oh no, it's not possible! I'm still reeling. What is this poor man thinking? I didn't want to look at the "sexy" pictures. But I looked anyway and I'm so beset with giggles now that my coffee is coming out my nose. Just think, generations of siring...
from cutielatina :
You made me look, and you are a goofbutt! And the nicest one! LOL
from rishi :
Hmm... that's a good idea. Actually, Angel Face doesn't condemn me at all. She's totally awesome about using her life as a her "witness" to christianity, i.e. she's never proselytized to me once. I think it's just a testament to her awesomeness that as a witch I'd volunteer to take her to the bibles store. *sigh* Odd, though, isn't it?
from kacklefight :
that was a great banner martha freaking nazi stewart. nice layout, simple and clean :)
from loopyboi :
Your comments were too s-l-o-w... Shame about Bob Keeshan. :( He will be sorely missed. I'm sure Jim Henson, Fred Rogers, and he are all having a ball wherever they are. :( Jamie
from beautyx3 :
I love, love, love, your banner of the bunny with a pancake on it's head, clever. Good Diary, just wanted to say hi!
from wench77 :

from bindyree :
Ain't performance anxiety grand? :)
from thedevlyn :
Thanks for your comment on my diary. Very kind words. Hope I can take the pressure. Oh, the stress of an adoring public.
from bebegracie :
hi there. Your diary is very interesting. Mainly because most of the diaries on here are very abstract and dont make good reading. Check me if you want, although its not very interesting, password and username are both grace. But yeah, just to let you know i like your style. Grace

from techdragon :
Happy Halloween and Blessed Be! May the new year bring you much happiness!! See you around!http://techdragon.diaryland.com
from waterstain :
i clicked on your banner because i recognized the eyes as belonging to someone i'd read about six months earlier. and, yeah, it was you. i have an extremely selective memory. and this story has very little point, but i figured i'd tell it to you anyway. :o)
from cielamara :
I clicked on your bunny banner, because I have a soft spot for all small animals...and I found a rather fascinating person. You really made me think--and you made me almost cry, too (in a good sort of way). I'm so very sorry about your baby...may he or she continue to watch over you. Thank you, I hope you have a wonderful Samhain, and bright blessings to you! ~*Cielamara
from preciousgift :

from onewetleg :

from cutielatina :
I just wanted to say, you are an awesome person. I thank you for letting me be a part of your life, even if just a reader, because your attitude and love for other people really gives me hope that there are still good people that exist out there....You care so much about your friends, and just love your family so much.YOU ROCK! And sorry if I sound so gushy..:) Take care.....
from megan0905 :
Cute banner.. the one with Nemo as sushi. A little disturbing, but creative nonetheless. :-)
from velvet-heart :
I want gold stats *sniff* damn economy.. lol
from cactustree :
reading this diary just made me suddenly, inexplicably, happy. bless you for adding a small amount of joy to a Monday.
from writerchick4 :
Thanks for the kind note bindyree! I loved checking out your diary too--especially the reviews of the Erasure concert last Spring. I went to the one in L.A. and was totally in agreement with your review! Nice to find a kindred Erasure/Pride & Prejudice/Laura Ingalls Wilder spirit. I'm definitely going to keep reading. :)
from en-trance :
hehehe... i love the bunny with the pancake on his head, hes cute :) teehee
from bindyree :
Well, I usually only look like an escaped lunatic for a few days after they're cut. Let's all hope they lay down by Sunday, shall we?
from hissandtell :
Fabulous banner, fabulous driving haiku. Sorry about your bangs!
from wifemotherme :
I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know I love your banner bunnies! I am not a big fan of banners but yours always leaves me with a smile!
from just-a-girl9 :
Loved the banner, although I'm sure you get that all the time. Saw the banner, had to check out the diary of course. Anyway, just thought I'd let you know I liked the diary! Bye!
from dont-stop :

from blaiyze :
Actually.....I just wanted to make the bunny cry. B.

from onewetleg :

from notasock :
There are few things in life I value more highly than bunnies with pancakes on their heads. Good banner.
from minstrelite :
I thought your banner was witty and hilarious (as well as informative) and found your Friday Five entry to be delightful. I'm a San Franciscan as well, though I recently moved down the Peninsula to San Mateo. Also, I recently came back from a vacation visiting an old friend in Utah. You'll like it there. Thanks for your entry, and easy on the peanut butter. :)
from quiddle :
ohh deearrr...why did I not know this BEFORE I almost drowned me, my cat, my little sister and several million fleas? (well, i think drowining the fleas would have been the objective, but whatever) Bree, you need to write a book on little things that make life go easier...Oh my goodness, I just realized...I was at the library yesterday and I actually took out a book called the Guide to Life or something. How sad am I? I bet they didn't mention anything about cats and clothespins. I need like, somebody to walk around holding my hand and keeping me from doing all these DUMB things! I think maybe my parents should pay more attention to me. lol...thanks for the advice, it might come in handy because he still appears to be flea ridden...apparently 2 seconds in a flea bath before schreeching out, clawing up several people, and rolling around in kitty litter while wet wasn't enough to get rid of the pests. ergh.
from almost-sane :
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll keep an eye out for it next time I go shopping!
from rosedesigns :

from fangable :
stapling jello to a brick? how creative of you!
from throcky :
Thanks so much for the link to miserable melodies. Right now I am revelling in Jessica Mitford's rendition of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer!" Too fantastic.
from bindyree :
Quiddle, my darling dear -- How do you NOT love a SNOT? We would die of horrible respiratory diseases if it weren't for SNOT! It's about time SNOT got recognized for what it is! People think it's SNOT important, but it IS.
from quiddle :
you liked the snot entry?????!!!!!!!!! i love you!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( i was a bit worried about the going-over-ness of it... hmm) oh and thank you for having me as a favorite, that makes me so happy!!!
from bindyree :
Thank you, Professor.:)
from lovemonkey13 :

from bindyree :
Andy Bell is gay. Vince Clarke is not.

Hmmm. I always thought the guys from Erasure were gay. They're not?
from abacinate :
Yes I have no concept of grammar whatsoever. Y-O-U-R! *smacks forehead*
from abacinate :
hahahahaha I love that crying bunny banner. Now I want a bunny though :o/ You're diary's great too of course! :)
from wonka1106 :
I absolutely love your banner of the bunny with the pancake on its head.
from chaoticflame :
We're having a parade, so whydont you and the cucumber stop by? We already sent the yak home because the lime jello was taking forever to chill; but the leprechaun is all taped and ready for dipping. Why not come down? Oh, and bring a bottle of soy sauce so we can baste the lemmings properly. Heaven knows we've got to stash the cucumbers somewhere.
from brucegirl :
I cliked on your catchy banner and here I am. Just thought that I should leave you a note to say that you had a cool banner. ;-)
from meowth2007 :
Your banner on d-land was hilarious!
from bindyree :
Thanks! I hope everybody here and above the parallel has enjoyed their respective patriotic holidays. :)

Happy fourth of July! ~Jesse
from kbaa :

from techdragon :
I love your diary. Thanks for sharing everything about yourself - if you feel up to it give me a read.
from darkfairy13 :
Good no Bunny cries *whew* heh heh baby picture "oooohhhh yeah!" :-p
from justenough :
you know its not very fair to have that damn bunny ad. see i'm a sucker for bunnies. my parents wont let me get one & i want one sooo bad. and theres that damn bunny on the top of my page who is going to cry if i dont click AND I MUST CLICK BUNNY!! aahh *goes insane*
from creepatron :
I just got to your site from one of your banners and I was really touched by the yellow ribbon on the left side of the page; it brought tears to my eyes. My boyfriend is a USMC Sergeant, fortunetely in a non-deployable unit, and the war was especially painful for those that lost friends and were silently ignored by excessive media coverage of anti-war cowards.
from vegastar :
HEY YOU, some how came across yer page, so I read it, turned to be okay........no need to fear...you didn`t bite........maybe I`ll read again. Who knows.????? Only me!!!!!! ha ha ha ha!1!!!!!! I am a greatful grapefruit...ta ta 4 now..... -Vega*
from rich-monsoon :
Its Rich, just wanted to say hey. :)
from whovillian :
Woohoo....I love your point of view on same sex marriages and sex. What do I care what my neighbours are doing in thier bedrooms....unless I'm jealous that I'm not having as much fun in mine...*giggles* I applaud you my dear. In Canada we just got the okay for same sex marriages. ( for now)*sighs*
from flyinby :
personally i wish that hadn't aboloshed those laws. call me a prude, i guess. that's what i am. (proud of it, too.) toodles! *wink*
from ordinarykat :
....taking it up the ass for pain or pleasure? but, honestly i like your spin on the story- you make it seem all flowerly and dummy it down so the stupid people in society can understand. Kuddos to you for being that good at writing to allow morons to interpret what you say without using four letter words.
from lula-neith :
hi! love the entry about the tx bashing of the sodomy laws. love your take on it. i think that it was a bad thing for the gay community to take the bait and make homosexuality a morality issue. who cares if they're "born that way"??!! what country do we live in, anyway? we have no right to dictate behaviour that is consensual and doesn't involve us. anyway. take care! fellow pagan, -Lula.
from devouredsoul :
i do appreicate the martha can kiss my ass bit! made me smile, I don't do that often anymore. blessed be !!! ♥
from z0tl :
yeah, yo banner rawks, i wanted to cut and paste it on my bumper. hah! :)
from myreason :
Just wanted to say that I'm glad I clicked on your banner. Your diary is great. Also, you can never eat too much peanut butter. ;)
from drewbearsf :
Great South Park Character. Thank YOU for links. I really enjoy the San Franciso CAM page.
from rich-monsoon :
Thats so sweet, dedicating a page to your dad. Thats a wonderful picture.
from mrernie :
enjoyed the whole mail fraud bit , you rock and good luck in your endeavours . healing too . e.
from bindyree :
I know this guy, Ralphie, who went blind from soap poisoning....
from koningsvrou :
Yes Bindy dishes do dry by themselves. You are completely correct BUT if they are not dried with either a dishtowel or a high speed hot air jet then they retain traces of the detergent dishcleaner liquid. Try the trick of not drying your dishes with a dishtowel for three months and then ask your doctor to x-ray your digestive system. It would interest you! Best wishes and keep up your diary work as it is so enjoyable.
from inane-words :
wow wow wow!!! your banner "martha stewart can kiss my ass" is too funny! i like it. haha, just thought id let you know. :) ~hillary~
from rachimal :
hey, clicked your banner. I like your diary, I haven't read much, but i'll check out some of your archives later. Have a good one, and happy gb signing week.
from cheese-cult :
hi. i like your yellow ribbon. i have some suicidal friends and family. they haven't kill them selves yet. but i have fear for them. the yelow ribbon program is a wonerfull idea and i respect it. just thought i would tell you...
from ladyfrodo :
hi
from no-yes-maybe :
Hi there, I got here via your banner, I loved it...I was once a fag hag as well! Love your diary.
from puccapeach :
Your welcome!!!! Thanks for leaving me a note. Hey how did you know that I visited your diary???
from bindyree :
Thank you! I am glad for that as well! And by the way, Paul came through just fine. He'll probably be out of the horse spittle within the week. Yayyy!!!
from missmaggie03 :
I just spent the last 2 hours reading your diary and I must say I love it. I'm glad things are getting better for you :)
from requiel :
I just found you and you are too funny! I think I used to have the same neighbors you do. *laugh* I'm just starting so I only have a few entries, come read me if you have few. :)
from coupdegrace :
hey. i've read you before, but not in a while... so, nice to read again. i'm glad to read that paul's alright (i don't know him, or you, but i had a friend not too long ago that was due for major surgery, and i don't know how it went, or is going.... so, yeah.)
from dzippy :
your diary is tr�s amusant. however, your "cute little bunny" on the banner resembles a small bulldog. lol, keep writing.
from slipnslide17 :
Your diary cracks me up. Thanks. I needed a good laugh! :)
from bindyree :
Thanks for the good wishes!
from asinglegirl :
Hey, good luck on the diet! That sounds about what I'm doing on mine. Except I usually just forget to eat. 50 pounds? That's awesome. I'm still trying for the first 10.
from bindyree :
Well, my 'hag fag' is Jamie -- the bestest one in the wholest world.:) Thanks for stopping in via the banner! xox B
from sprhrgrl :
yaaay fag hags and cute banner. (grin)
from bindyree :
You shouldn't have to do that, and I'm sorry it's come to that. But if you are more comfy with a lock, that's what you should do. Thanks in advance for sending me the password; i enjoy your diary and would miss reading about you.
from faith5by5in :
Hey, I know I'm on your favorites right now, but I had to password protect my diary because some people found out where it was...note me if you wanna know the password.
from bindyree :
I love your diary as well, DrewBear! Thanks for stopping by.

from miscreant444 :
here, have some oxygen. Now breathe with me. You're right, of course. CSS is NOT widely supported. Sad but true. I still slide formatting into my HTML...probably always will. I was just saying....sheesh.
from bindyree :
hi. and thanks.:)
from ursaminor2 :
hey there dropped in to say hi and read a little. hi.
from bindyree :
Yes, I -know- that. Cascading Style Sheets are the belly button ring and the low slung jeans of the world wide web. In other words, they aren't for everybody. I don't use CSS because no two browsers you can name can support all of their tags yet. But a LOT of browsers DO still support plain old HTML. The WC3 has gotten so completely far away from what it was originally intended to accomplish, it's a wonder Tim Berners Lee doesn't weep as he goes to sleep every night. The only thing CSS does is make it easy for the people creating / maintaining the websites -- it *certainly* doesn't make most end users life any easier. What about people stuck in a high school that doesn't have enough money to modernize their computer system? They can't see any sites other than HTML. My brother, who is a substitute teacher is seeing this constantly. If the oldest browser in my possession -- Netscape 3.04 -- can't read the site, then the people who create it have failed to understand what the WWW is really for. "What we have here... is a failure to communicate."
from miscreant444 :
cascading style sheets are the standard now, as decreed by the W3C...just so you know.
from bindyree :
The bunny is a sable-point Holland Lop named Mariposa's Trinity. Which is my opinion is basically my idea of the perfect pet, namely a bunny rabbit that looks like a siamese cat.
from gbg :
Your bunny banner rocked my socks. I just wanted to say that. :)

I had a WONDERFUL Beltane. My best friend, Jamie, who you have read about here, self-dedicated on that day, right after midnight of the 30th -- and he let me listen in. (I'm in SF, and he's in NY.) -- I don't have a particular tradition. I just call myself a Pagan. :)
from x-porcelain :
san fransisco is beautiful. so is your diary.
