I've returned...
« on: May 18, 2007, 05:41:35 AM »
I've finished sulking and returned....afterall my favorite arcade game is linked here. I do want to say again that this is a great forum and Sean and Jerry have done a fantastic job with the place. We are not all going to get along, not going to agree on somethings, some words may be taken the wrong way or out of context and feelings will be hurt. That comes with any forum. In any forum a member must expect those things and be prepared to deal with the good and bad including myself. Some will welcome me back some will not. I probably will read more than post and be in the arcade but did want to say "hello."

Hey Jen, welcome back.  We all have our moments.  Life on earth is too short and too prescious to worry about petty squabbles.  I've never played any arcade games here.  I already play too much solitaire on the computer......

Glad you're back Jen, I've always enjoyed your posts.  I think there was something in the cyberwaves this last month, another forum I'm on kind of disintegrated with a lot of hard feelings.  It's tough because these communities are very real even though we may never meet face to face, the potential for hurt and misunderstandings is high and the tools we use in the real world to deal with it aren't always useful.  In other words, you can't just hug someone and go on without discussing it.  But, here's a cyberhug and a nod of understanding.

la la la la la la la la la la... that's me with my fingers in my virtual ears whenever anyone mentions the arcade games here. I spend waaaay too much time playing spider solitaire on this computer.  It's gotten so bad that I think I can't go to sleep without at least one game every night, too often it is way more than one.

Thanks you all your kind words mean a lot. I've missed you all and this place to. We were like a web family to an extent. Greg still have the web site with additions and my game is Collapse in the Arcade. Since I left I have bought some Koi, added new lily's and we are enlarging the pond. Lots of good stuff planned.

LOL!  I won't go to bed until I get a win.....  I only play the "medium" level of spider solitaire.  I was winning at 27% and now I've slipped to 25%.....  As usual, the odds favor the house.... :P

I'm such an addict that my win rate is up to 52% now, I also play the medium version.  It seems that, like poker hands, the games come in streaks.  If I lose more than 2 I quit and restart the game.  My longest winning streak was 10 games, I was exhausted but couldn't quit.

I'm easily addicted to games...I think I'd better stay away from the arcade!   {:-P;;

Funny, when Sean put in the arcade I thought he was nuts.   I never commented.   Just shows you what I know!
Now if he can just find a way to install a coin slot!   Bada Boom! lol

Don't know how much I'll be able to remember ....... but he is getting to meet his grandson .......they are coming down for the weekend. Hope you had a great time.
