Ever said anything on here you wish you didn't but then you can't take it back or delete it because someone else posted too soon. Well much like printing a retraction in the newspaper it may very well be a small article on the back page that no one will read but heres your chance.

Disclaimer: No this is not a get out of jail free card. C.D. will most likely not take into consideration your sorry as a defense for bad taste or attacks on others. In the event good things follow your post, results are not typical.

Even though I'm generally careful about what I post even late at night (hard to believe, huh ), on second thought I probably shouldn't have revealed some things I have... Oh, well... The info might come back to bite me in the rear some glorious day. All I need to do is speed up with innocent posts. Noticed the archive is not that complete – it starts dropping old posts after a while. Half of my older posts are already gone. Darn, and here I thought I could safely count on CD to keep my precious memoirs until I decide to publish them…

I apologize to DimSum and everybody else I crossed swords with this week.

I get carried away some times too I know. Humor is going to be my downfall, I can already see my death going to trial and the poor person that snapped using the "you had to be there" defense".

If I have ever offended anyone in my quest for a chuckle I am sorry that has never been my intension.

Oh, Lindsey, too. Wasn't proud of a post I wrote two days ago.

I'll have to start paying more attention to my inner voice....If I type something in then hesitate and pull my hand back a few times from the mouse and then go....oh what the hell!....maybe I shouldn't!

We all tend to say more online than we would in real life. The problem is that sometimes what you say online can be traced to your real life or may get connected to your real life in unexpected initially ways and then you get a mess on your hands…

Actually you can ask to have a post removed and the moderators will do that, even after the edit feature button has disappeared. Someone objected to a post of mine and i agreed with what she said about why it offended her, and so I asked the mods to remove it becuase I did not want to offend anyone else. They were very gracious and removed it.

If someone has already quoted from the post, and then the post is removed, the quote block just shows "orphaned post"
