Another one bites the dust.

In past threads I have compared this place to a small town. Despite the fact that the cyber boundries of our community extend across continents, we all seem to know what's going on with each other. Birthdays and accomplishment are celebrated. Sadness and losses are consoled. Advice is shared. Friendships are created and dissolved. And amongst all this wonderful comraderie, a lie or two is told and feelings are hurt.

The recent developments relating to Jason and Ms. X bring to mind how easy it is to decieve someone on the web and how easy it is to get caught. The pain is never easy for the person decieved. Neither is the anger restrained against the perpetrator. However, here in cyberspace, the perpetrator can recreate him/herself and play the same con over again on a new victim.

So, Jason is a pariah. Take that, you cad, until the next time. We caught you once and we'll do it again. And to Ms. X, and others who allow themselves to be seduced by folks like Jason, be careful. There's a lot of jerks in cyberspace. Fortunately, too, there's also a lot of wonderful people out there.

I don't know how, but I seem to have missed something, again. How is it I am here almost everyday, sometimes most of the day and these things still slip by me.

No, I am not asking you to dredge up whatever happened, since I don't know, it doesn't concern me. What does concern me is my inability to figure out which threads I should be following and which ones to ignore. Dang it.
I need a memo service to help me.
This is probably the third thing just this week I missed. Shaking head, maybe I should stay over at the srp board.

Just as Never. She has professed to have the ability to read and memorize every thread on the board. She'll give you directions to the interesting threads.

I find lots of interesting ones. Just seem to miss the ones where the life shaking events take place. Darn it. Safer that way though....
