Displaying 961 To 990 Of 992 Comments That’s so interesting. There was recently a HUGE controversy on HP over the C word. A poster called two women this word, one of them repeatedly, and I remember thinking, that takes an awful lot of rage to call a woman that word over and over and over. A lot of posters supported him, saying he was “provoked.” (I was online when he melted down, and he was NOT provoked.) A lot of posters are understandably disgusted by him and don’t want him allowed on the site anymore. My attitude is deep down inside, this was a poster with a lot of obvious rage playing bizarre mind games on HP, and IMO, shouldn’t be allowed on the site any longer for those two reasons. HP agreed. There got to be a huge rift over this incident and we finally have just kind of given up on HP because we found some of the behaviour by some of the posters supporting this person childish and vindictive. I had a long talk with my boyfriend over this word — I personally find it the equivalent of the N word — and he told me something interesting. He said he had never called a woman that word, not once, but had called other guys that word playing hockey. So he promised me he would never use it again. 🙂 » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 21, 2010 @ 5:29 pm Flog That Lame Duck For All We Are Worth Unfortunately, grabbing defeat from the clutches of victory is what Democrats do best. I’m not being sarcastic. It really is. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 19, 2010 @ 6:40 pm Adventures in Investigative Journalism, Part II Vol. 2 ♥ » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 19, 2010 @ 8:29 pm Well, I have a pair of fancy cowboy boots, too! http://www.6pm.com/ariat-caballera-bucksin-red I don’t have any of that other stuff. I have a lasso but I always seem to end up the one lassoed. 😀 » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 19, 2010 @ 8:08 pm We keep a shotgun by the back door, with shells in a nearby cupboard. But that’s mostly for mountain lions, which are known to frequent these parts. Otherwise, I feel pretty safe. And we have a malamute … and he’s always loaded. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 19, 2010 @ 6:42 pm Friday Music— All the Lovely Versions. Um, my comment showed up twice.

You might not see me there much for much longer. Things have gotten too weird. The stories I could tell… In any case, yeah, Pepe says he has two WILD stories he could write for the POV about being an investigative reporter. This was a long time ago before I knew him. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 10, 2010 @ 11:31 am Hai! His mountain climbing is a sore spot. Ask him sometime about his ice traverse on Hyalite Peak. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 9, 2010 @ 10:52 pm Wow, Sue, that was interesting. You could write a novel about this. Boy, I know someone pretty well who could tell some pretty bizarre stories about when he was a cop reporter. 8) » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On October 9, 2010 @ 10:34 pm Friday Night Music Thread – Music from the World A very famous Kiwi/Maori song: Pokarekare Ana

It’s a WordPress glitch. Normally, posting photos in your WordPress submissions is really easy. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On February 18, 2011 @ 2:31 pm Well, that freaked me out, I had a post publish when I didn’t expect it to. So I made a copy of it and made sure it’s still a “draft.” I’ll be darned if I can get the images to work within the post. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On February 18, 2011 @ 2:10 pm Go to gravatar.com. It’s easy. Bito or Adlib can help you on your second question. » Posted By Haruko Haruhara On February 15, 2011 @ 6:02 pmComments Posted By Haruko Haruhara
