Oh, Happy New Year!

Nothing about the Oregon rebels?

No.

I actually came here to find out if anyone has recommendations for restaurants in Santa Fe.

Optic neuritis. You have MS.

Actually it's Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION)

Being completely blind would really interfere with my life. Since it's not Viagra, you think I ought to give up sex altogether?

As for the Viagra connection, I was thinking about the old tales of masturbation leading to blindness. Except I don't do that either.

In Cleveland, courts have punished people by making them stand outside holding a sign saying 'I am an idiot.' Some behavior that got thus punished: a woman who drove on the sidewalk to pass a school bus, a man who drunk dialed 911.

Some did but it wasn't a good fit for most. IB stayed with you & I drop by every so often.

Yes -- it was a World Crossing forum.

I recall Helen being somewhat of a feminist. Hard to square that with IB "enjoying" her... She was a hard-core, quite nasty, conservative lesbian. Her nastiness against liberals endeared her to conservatives who were willing to overlook her sexual preferences. But she got nasty with conse...

I don't know any of these people -- they weren't at RI. From what I recall, the person who said it didn't really interact with you. Her opinion was based on occasional reading of your posts. I never posted at Random International. The only people that frequented RI that I enjoyed were Helen-W, Jene...

What a world!

Alison Parker's bf posted this on FB We didn't share this publicly, but Alison Parker and I were very much in love. We just moved in together. I am numb. We were together almost nine months. It was the best nine months of our lives. We wanted to get married. We just celebrated her 24th birthday. She...
