Satellite was right...these forum friendships are a facade and empty as a Russian vodka bottle...just anonymous posters taking on some contrived persona until they get bored or annoyed or pushed on to the next forum or internet oasis. Digital Darwinism...the weak move on to safer ground.

At least in my case, Satellite is dead wrong. I'm sure I'm not alone.

I stand corrected. You're timing is perfect. Good luck with the fiancee interview.

Wow, moxxie, good to hear from you! Hope things settle down soon. Really.

I don't think that's at all what Satellite meant.

I've been really busy lately myself and haven't had near the time to post. But I've still made great friendships here (and other places too). Not everybody who hangs around VJ is looking to use 'friendships' to get information that benefits them and when the goal is reached, vanish.

Mox has obviously taken his toys and gone home. So for those waiting for his reappearance...as they say in NYC...forget about it.

Mox is not alone in leaving through the back door. There are others who've taken their toys and gone home recently...although I'm sure there's plenty of PMing going on between some of the special boys. Kazan has shown this through his recent cryptic and "insider" comments.

Now I'm taking my toys and going over the hill. Goodbye and good luck to those of you on true visa journeys.

Who are you, again?

A man with a beard... whatever that means...

I have another name for that user but it's against TOS to post it

i wonder if he understands the subtext of his new name...

[slim 1,525]

Hell, I don't even understand the subtext of his new name.

[eekee 182]

beard=wife/girlfriend of a closeted gay man.

You beat me to it. Also means someone a closeted gay man will use for cover, like if you went to a social event and brought an escort for appearances sake only. Or it can be somebody completely non-existant, like the girlfriend you mention but nobody ever meets.

I knew having a gay college roommate would come in handy one day.

One should never worry when someone disappears from VJ; it just means he or she is "living" for a chance rather than wasting hours upon hours here.

Amen!!! For an aspiring lawyer, you sure seem to be wise. (:

There's a lot of assumptions in that quote, one of which is that someone who spends a lot of time on VJ (or some other activity) is doing nothing but. I've explained before that I have the fortune (or misfortune, depending on how I feel that day) to work at a computer. I'm a very efficient multitasker, a fast reader, and a fast typist. So while it may appear that I spent a lot of time on VJ, I actually spent very little time actively engaged in the site. Lately my new job hasn't allowed me to be as flexible (lot of time spent in a cold data center away from my desk), and some things--like VJ--have had to be back-burnered. But that's not to say that my life has suddenly transformed into something completely different than it was.

Some things never change. Because Satellite cannot possibly conceive of anything outside of his own sphere of understanding, he applies broad all-encompassing assumptions to all his observations. This is probably the formula for a successful lawyer in our closed-minded society, but IMHO does not make for a good lawyer.

[slim 1,525]

Just curious... what does make for a good lawyer?
