Geeks, it might be I am not getting any new friends with this but I will most definitely take Carl's side here.
This thread is called Today. The thread was originally started by our resident shemale Cindy back in July 2009. The idea was to tell other members what have you been doing today. This is the very first post in Today:
If someone's life is a bit boring according to my standards and likes, repeating same stuff all the time, does not mean this someone should only post when he / she does something he / she has not mentioned before. For some of our members the life is like that. Walking the dog, waiting news from parents or kids or spouses doctor visits, going to church, taking courses to learn how to cope with job interviews and so on.Today i worked out at my local ***nasium and later i made a new Sig for myself ... what did you do today, please share ?
Edit - Why is G Y M stared out ?
I also dislike when someone's personal beliefs are mocked and / or criticized. Carl has openly admitted he belongs to Jehovah's Witnesses. I give him some extra points for admitting he believes on something and is trying to live according to the demands of his religion. Carl is the only member here getting negative feedback because of his personal beliefs but he does not care. He also does not try to "push" his beliefs, convert us. He just tells us he believes in God and belongs to a church most of us (including me) sees as a cult.
Physical or mental disability? Why is that important to know? I've seen some real idiots here on the Seven Forums, posts that show a member has IQ smaller than a sparrow. It is and should be OK for us, we are different which makes this forum so interesting. Some of us come from countries where even a basic education is almost impossible to get, some of us come from rich countries with all opportunities to civilize and educate us yet being uneducated and without a job. For me that is worse than a disability. But it does not belong here.
Carl has told us he is taking courses to learn how to write job applications and do interviews. He does charity work, loves his family, is interested in vintage cars and buses. Carl is my virtual friend here, I feel lucky I have learned to know a bit of him.
Keep posting, Carl. And for heaven's sake, get finally a job! No more excuses!

Kari,
I can understand your point of view and of course everyone feels differently about things and is entitled to their own opinions.
I certainly don't dislike Carl, and I have no interest in peoples religions, it matters not one bit to me.
I just find the posting repetitive it seems like this thread is going round in circles every day.
Just my opinion and I mean no disrespect to anyone. Have a good day/evening all.

Today I picked up, carried and stacked over 9000 lb.'s in the first 2 hours of work. Not bad for an old geezer like me! Most of it in the rain too btw.
Tilt-o-whirls?
Today i went shopping to tesco, whilst there i watched the staff ,well 7 of them do a conga dressed as the 7 dwarfs led by snowhite to the tune of Hi Ho played over the stores speakers.
hopefully this is more interesting than watching paint dry
