Seriously. At least make it so you can edit posts for 1 hour after making them or something.

Jeez, if I had had an EDIT FUNCTION I could have corrected it.

So, is this the time to play the Royal Russian Jewess card? Let's hear what Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn did to you. Would you put him in a class with Bill Wilson? Is your complaint Bolshevik in nature? If you don't want to "throw the words on the wind", put 'em right here on the forum and let's take a look at your gripe, k? K!

EDIT EDIT EDIT!! Happy dance! This is the spelling I'm finding for your nemesis. Care to correct it - and all websites referring to him?

You have no inkling as to what I know, Ironic. What is "obvious" to you now will probably not be so "obvious" when you're 30 or 40 or 50+. You don't know what I've studied, you don't know where I've been. I daresay you don't stand for Solzhenitsin's views any more authentically than I do.

Be offended. Put flowers on his cybergrave. Weep for what you are certain is not known or practiced. When you're finished, begin living with all the traps and fears and insecurities the rest of us live with. Come back to this after a time and see if you don't find you have been presumptuous in your flip opinion.

Looks like you both spelled it the same way, Ironic.
The things people around here choose to find fault with is astounding.

It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones.

She didn't spell Solzhenitsyn wrong, she spelled "Aleksandr" wrong, and yeah for me it's a problem when somebody wants to abuse quotations from such a fine source.

Ironic: You've never misspelled anything on this forum, have you? You've never abused any person, thought, concept or opinion on this forum, have you? You've never allowed for error on this forum, have you?

Bring on your denials, my Russian pretty. You will do a complete disservice to your heritage by exaggerating your tolerance.

Because you have often referred to your age. No one who is 22 or 23 is wretched-looking unless they got the shit beat out of them in childhood. You have also referred to the support your mother gives you. I have deduced that she does not beat you.

Please note that I have corrected *someone else's* spelling error in triplicate. So sorry the misspelling offended your delicate sensibilities. It was an online error which I could not correct at the time because I did not have the edit function.

Sloganeering again, Gunthar -4? What does this slogan refer to, anyway? Is it wide open to interpretation or do you mean something specific by it?

Ironic, I already did reflect on my part in the situation. I discovered that you were correct in the spelling of Solzhenitsin's name and I amended it - PLUS I gave you credit for your super sleuthing. What else would you have me do? Got any boots that need licking? Can I wipe your tender Russian tush for you?

I agree that disabling the edit function is a real pain. It was because of Danny's (Randle O.'s) stunt of posting attacks on people and then deleting them before I saw them to that he wouldn't get banned.

I also make a lot of typo mistakes, and don't see them until I have posted. I do a lot of re-editting of my posts too. Unfortunately, Drupal does not have an "edit for 5 minutes" function.
Well, I'm going to take a chance here, and re-enable the editting.

Have a good day.

Orange, I don't know who you get your info from but RandleO never deleted his posts because he didn't want you to see them. He deleted posts from his blog posts that JR, Conan/Ben, Gunthar flooded with attacks.
Where do you get your information from, because you are being manipulated by some very good con men.
Let me ask you a question? Did Gunthar and Conan (your buddies) tell you how many posts they have deleted so you couldn't see them.
I bet they didn't and would you care anyway.
One last question, why do you share this information? Like you know if Danny is posting here or not. Because ben and JR told you that Danny lives in Oklahoma.....lmao.
Did you read your famous post you wrote on Rick Ross, (I posted it here) I would like to know when you are going to start practicing what you wrote.

Thanks, Orange. It is a matter of principle. We should not let detractors bully us into surrendering our freedoms. Otherwise, they win.

Can we modify the paddle by whittling it down so that it inflicts more suffering?

Ironic says: "I find you quoting Solzhenitsyn to be very offensive. You obviously don't know anything about him or what he stood for. You didn't even spell his name right. That is not the way to properly honor one of the best minds of the 20th century."

How about these apples?
