my story

That wasn't a very good apology because it was NOT meant as an apology. Trying to

encourage someone to improve themselves

so more than a minority of people take note of what they are saying doesn't need an apology. Like I mentioned, some people may have good information to share but if they can't spell, don't use punctuation, capitalization, etc., and their message looks and sounds like a mess, only a minority of people are going to pay attention to what they say. Would a book that was poorly written with 15-20% of the words mispelled, no capiatalization or punctuation be a big seller? No. People would ignore it. The same goes for letters, messages, etc. If someone helps themselves and learns to write properly, more people will take note of whatever it is that person is writing. The only people who need to apologize is the people who try to hold people back from improving themselves by telling them to just keep going as is, don't try to better yourself.

Anyways, one paragraph is my response to Erikboy has gotten off track here. Like Riverwind, I can offer some information on Androcur if anyone is interested. Just got another 2 months supply in today and am loving the effects of it. Gotta' run right now...

i thought i would explane a few thangs about myself . i grew up in a small town in northern cal . in the fifties a person with dyslexia was considered stupid and we where just pushed aside . i dont want you to be to hard on CHRIS-M he is just trying to get me to think a little harder . i wont stop posting but spelling has always been very hard for me and sometimes i get my feelings hert. but chris did not try to do this . another thing i want you to know i am a christen . i am a christen that loves every body. idont care if you are gay or an atheist or whatever you mey be i care for you all just the same. so if i say i am praying for you it means i am thinking fo you and giving you all the love i can.and last i want to thanke the eunuch archive. for if it was not for this forum i do not know where i would be today . for the first time in my life i feel normel. i love everyone of you and thanks for your support

Sag. I will apologize now because I didn't know that you had dyslexia but you were correct also, I was trying to get you to think harder. I didn't want you to quit writing at all. Again, my apologies because I didn't realize you had dyslexia. I have done a little research on that in the past and I'm sure it's not pleasant.

Keep on writing Sag and good luck.

Sag111,

I know Loomis far too well. If, as a dyslexic, you managed to get through school there at all, you are clearly bright and hard working. Congratulations on your successes to date. I hope that you find most of us on the Archive to be helpful. (Though occasionally the tone may not sound it, most everyone here really is pleasant.) Just keep posting and stay a part of the conversations.

Should you ever decide to write a story for the Archive, there are several of us who would be willing to help you with editing. Brief notes, such as what you have written to date, work just fine with whatever spelling you use. For a story which will stay available forever (or at least as long as the Archive exists), putting it into Standard English spelling does help.

Well, dont' we just feel like an ass now? We certainly LOOK like one from this end .....

See what happens when you say something like that?

You don't know how much I WANT to say things like this on regular basis, but don't! Because such is just what can happen. Now, kids, if you're all ready to play nice again, feel free.

Paolo. You are right and admitted it. You stated, quote, "Well, don't WE look like an ass now? WE

certainly LOOK like one from this end...

"

You are right Paolo. YOU asked if YOU looked like an ass and then admitted that you do look like an ass in the above quote. That may not be how you intended to have the quote interpreted but that's what you said. See how important thinking things out before typing & sending messages can be?

Just to back you up, you look like an ass from this end also. By trying to stir things up AFTER ammends had been made betwen Sag & I, just to try and make yourself feel all 'high and mighty' certainly makes you look & sound like an ass. But, like you mentioned above, you already knew you were one so you might as well play the part...Remember Paolo, YOU asked!

Now, can we forget about anymore self abuse by calling ourselves a name such as Paolo did to himself, forget about any more nasty notes since the two parties involved, Sag & myself have made ammends and are ready to get on with the original intent of this post which was started by erikboy? I think we were ALL ready to start 'playing nice' before Paolo's post.

Chris,

You just didn't get the sarcasm of that post did you, pal?

Just for the record, I had a new window open when I read that post where you told 'sag' to use a spell checker - and you're damn lucky I scrolled down and read the rest of it before I kicked your ass off of the board. It's not YOUR place to tell a member something like that on an open board.

I guess from now on I'll just come right out say what I'm thinking instead of resorting to sarcasm that seems to fly right over people's heads. You do something like that again, and I WILL kick you off of the board. If you've got nothing better to do than rag on other members, you can find somewhere else to do it.

P

lease consider the ramifications of NOT encouraging someone to improve themselves. Holding themselves back by telling them to 'just keep doing it the way your doing it.' Why not encourage someone to improve themselves?

And this would probably be a VERY good time for you to take your own advice.

[chris_M (imported)]

Who's ragging on members? YOU are. I didn't demand Sag use a spell checker, I suggested that he 'please' use one. Notice I said PLEASE. I didn't DEMAND it. It's not my place to demand it but I can make suggestions.

Sarcasm? Maybe that's the only way you can relate. It didn't slide right over my head. If you had interpreted what I said, you would have realized that I understood exactly what you meant. But if someone wants to slam me, I'll take them on. I'm willing to let this die. YOU have to keep throwing in more & more remarks and making more & more threats. Why did you have to say ANYTHING in the first place since Sag & I had already made ammends. Now you are threatening to throw me off the board. Does this make you feel all mighty and powerful? The entire thing ended several days ago but YOU seem to have to keep bringing up remarks. IT WAS OVERWITH! I even appologized to Sag and he understood what it was I was trying to say to him. YOU are the one who just HAD to throw in the remarks after the fact, NOT me or anyone else. Let's let it die once and for all. STOP the threats. It's history. Let's get on with things.

Erikboy,

Haven't heard form you since your post but things have gotten a little out of hand. One thing you can do to find out information about Androcur is to do a search on this website and use Androcur as the search word. There is quite a bit of information from people who have used or are currently using Androcur on this website. Also, try the website www.inhousepharmacy.com and do a search for Androcur. They have information direct from Schering which is the company that makes it. Although they are fairly expensive compared to some other on-line pharmacies, they have very dependable service. You will receive an automatic confirmation of your order, then a confirmation that it is being processed and then a confirmation that it has been shipped. In my case it comes via the U.S. Postal Service and arrives within 7-8 days consistently.

If you have any more question, feel free to ask. You've probably read his posts but Riverwind has a year or better experience with Androcur and if you do a search on this website you will see quite a bit of useful information from him. I've been taking it for about 14 weeks, now and it is VERY effective. I actually started taking it back around the end of May, then was off of it for over a month due to ordering from a different and very unreliable source.

If you wish, you can e-mail me direct at '[email protected]' or writing here is fine also. Your choice. Good luck with your endeavors.

Chris
