Mark you have to do what you have to do. For me there is no question. Like many others said get the surgery. Only thats important. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Just had to keep at me, yeah? I've walked 2 miles in your shoes dude. I don't have the luxury of affording 6-7 computers, as i get a whole 300 dollars a week for my family and kids. House, car, bike payment. $8000 in solicitors fees in the past 18 or so months. I didn't need to ask the world what the right thing to do was. Common sense dictated that. When something bothers me, i "whine" to my family and friends. Not air it to the world. I should be so lucky? My friends are near where i live, family at home. Compared to you, in that respect, i have an overabundance of luck. |

Just had to keep at me, yeah? You just don't give up, do you? You have NOT walked in my shoes. House, car, bike payment........WTF? Those are things you chose to take on......... I am looking at losing my freaking sight, and you make jest of it???????? You can take the hike I suggested, or take the wrath of my friends here, of which I have many. I suspect you will have little support in your quest to diss me. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

In no way have i made fun of your current affliction. I may have said a few things untoward, and unwarranted. For that i apologize. My proposal was a simple one. You have far too many computers. Sell them. Money for an operation appears. Now that's an easy remedy. Would your world come to an end with less computers? Doubtful. And your problem would be solved. On a side note, what's with the threat? The wrath of your friends? Wtf is that about? Being ignored, banned? Dude, my life would go on unphased, unchanged. I come here to read some interesting posts from time to time. I enjoy doing that. |

From experience a few years ago when there was a similar situation, with several posters getting up the noses of a considerable group. We learnt the hard way the best approach was to post around the tormentors. Leave their posts visible in the thread, for completeness, but post around them as if their post was not there. I am sure after a time repeating-and-repeating their mantra they will get fed up with being ignored and move on. For those who cannot stop reacting, and giving succor for the next disagreeable post, the Forum has provided a means. This is to go to - /Your Account/Community Preferences/Message Filtering/Filter User - Ignore message board posts and private messages from these users/ Now enter their user ID in the oblong box, then click on "Add user to filter". Finally, click on Update, just below the User ID number box. The only bit of any of his posts you will see will be the bits where another poster reacts and quotes him. It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

Well, not been on the site for a few days, but read of your eye problem with sympathy Mark. There is only one decision to make, how quickly to get the operation. Go for the best you can afford. Give up the ciggies, switch off most of your crunchers and turn off the lights. Your sight is very precious. My wife had a retinal detachment 5 years ago and had eye surgery, that put her at high risk of a cataract and she got that done last year. she was phlegmatic about it, although I was like a cat on a hot tin roof. She is one brave lady. Her eyesight is now reasonable and she can get on with life. So .... go for it. Tom |

You would do well to accept other people's sufferings for what they are, my friend. Come together... Over me........ "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Hmmmmmmmmm... I wish to say, if I could have my way, that things would be different than they are. I would try to have everything so fine and life would be simple for me. But, it isn't. It just isn't. So I come here and carp and whine to the rest of you, hoping for some solace. And the true friends I have here understand that, and offer much compassion. Some, on the other hand, seem to think my constant requests for friendship are a bother to them. So, don't respond.......... This is a public forum, and as such, I have every right to post every word that I perceive to be in my best interest. And if I am incorrect, there are mods that have been given the duty to remove my words. I have made many friends here........and the few that don't consider me a friend......well, maybe one day they will come around too. I cry, I wander, I post too much...... But, I am ME........ msattler, the kittyman..usually kind of word, and gentle of touch. You should come to know me better, those who call me down. I can be a paradox at times, I know. I say one thing and then go off in a different direction. The love of my life, Lori, is vexed by me constantly. And it should not be so. I have a dead eye......and dealing with it frightens me. Is it so wrong that I should say so? "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

A song before I go....... Something I must share with those that care. You know, you take such good care of me. Something Fine...acoustic version Jackson Browne......Something Fine. You know.......it's taken it's share of me. Even though, you take such good care of me. You said you loved me, and that just made me smile......... Has not been that easy for a long, long, while. A long, long while. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I share what I can........ I give what I must. My trials are shared with those whom I trust. I give all I have to my friends here and there. My life, and my opinions I openly share. I hold little back......for to do so would be an affront to my wisdom and contradictory. All I offer is all that I have. Nothing held back here........ And of that I am glad. You see, it's all true, whatever you may think. I just offer up my thoughts and then you may toss then in the sink. But, that's ok with me......... Because, mostly, you respond so carefully. Someone said she loved me, And that made me smile. Have not been told that I have been loved for a long, long, while. I have been told a lotta things lately..... but 'I love you' has not been one of them. And I needed to hear that......... For a long, long while. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."

You know, it's taken it's share of me............ Papers outside the door......seems I can't remember what they're for. The world outside it tugging, like a begger at my sleeve. It will not quit, it will not stop Like myself, I do believe. I used to have a taste of Something Fine. I will let Jackson tell you the rest. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."

Good night Mark. G'night Uli.......... The papers lay there helplessly, Piled outside of my front door And I've tried and tried, but can't decide exactly what they're for. The world outside is tugging. Like a beggar at my sleeve. And you know.......it's takken it's share of me. (my own lyrics follow) You know, it's taken it's share of me...... A bit of life it tears from me at will I have not smiled a bit you see, 'cux life has had a chill. I try to smile, but easy it does not come.... Some think is should be so, but I am not the one. I go now because I must. I will sleep the sleep of kitties now...... I must. Still love you.` I asked for love......... The call's unanswered still. I suppose I can dream, but it leaves me little hope and will Some call me names, Call me what they will. You could say you love me 'Cuz that would make me smile. For no one's said they've loved me.. For a long, long, while. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

The last, single shot of her face........OMG She is a killer. ..... I am smitten, and I am WAY too old for her.......... Princess.......Dead stop at 1:02,,,if you can...,,,,,,OMG........ Yes, the kittyman can fall in love with the wrong gurl. And she would be the one. Old enough now....I suspect. This is soooooooo wrong. The sad part is I think she is still way too young to have a clue. Too young and innocent to commit. I hope that success does not corrupt her at an early age. It took some others to an early grave. hope it does not for her. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Next time you see the eye doctors, Kitty Man, ask them what excessive alcohol consumption does to peoples vision. |

Next time you see the eye doctors, Kitty Man, ask them what excessive alcohol consumption does to peoples vision. Funny you should ask....just found this and this. I have an Uncle who is an Eye Surgeon and had breakfast w/ him this morning. I asked him specifically about meow-man's condition and he expressed grave concern about the alcohol use and it's involvement in the situation. |

Awww, Kitty Man! You're making yourself bad :( A change of lifestyle is in order perhaps? Less crunching & less drinking, both of which will help pay towards the operation perhaps? Why not work out which are your best RAC earners and turn off some of the others for the time being? If I were rich I'd be helping you out right now, but I'm not as well off nowadays :( |
