There's been a meme on FB about suicide and sticks. Odd choice... sticks I mean but whatever works. On that not just let me say that if someone in that state does reach out to you, please do not respond with the complete indifference I got when I called a "friend" that day. Thank you to the ones who saw my behavior for what it was and chose to help me when I couldn't help myself. You know who you are and I would not be here if not for you. I am so glad that someone was there for you!

I've been wondering about how much the Forum is actually a marketing tool to attract and retain new listeners. People stumble on to this place, see a very comprehensive website with all kinds of things to get involved with. The song comments are definitely an integral part of keeping a handle on listener tastes.
Without a doubt, RP is a sound business model for this kind of enterprise. But Internet radio as we like it is seriously threatened with the Sound Exchange problem. Just have a sad feeling about the future here now. It's starting to look like a fun while it lasted kinda thing.
Well I guess the Spammers won this battle. dammit. I can't help but feel that this is somehow Obama's fault

Sorry for the attempt at humor. I just realized that RP has stopped the Journals. That's what I get for commenting on something that I had no idea occurred. I think I'll miss the journals. In the past I read quite a few and even posted several.
The problem of course is the trolls. It just gets old having my blood pressure go up when someone is being rude and nasty. I can handle differences of opinion, but the nastiness and pointless vitriol is not needed in my life.
It's a shame when something has to be dumbed down to the lowest common denominator.

Just wear a mask when you are posting to maintain anonymity. If posting in the toxic political forums, you might want to consider this type:
