Da Bella da Ball Journal

Why yes, yes I do. And thanks so much for dropping by.

Oh nooss!..not in this post. :slight_smile: Evidently you do your best work elsewhere. :wink:

Aside from genetic insanity and being good with knives…I also have a near photographic memory. :wink:

Oh Daedelus…You don’t mind if I quote you…

Thanks again for dropping by.

Me too! I never forget anything and I hold a grudge forever. But, I am only part Italian.

Thanks, boss :wink: …takes one to know one. :slight_smile:

Agreed. They pretty much look like tin cans. :roll_eyes:

So, Bella, I’m not clear on something… are you saying I’m attracted to Italian women despite half of them just being thoroughly unhinged and bad for me. Which half are you? :wink: Guess I better watch what I say if you are good with a knife… LOL :slight_smile:

Oh, and on a serious note, thanks for all the advice in your message. I’m looking some of it up right now.

I like to play horseshoes with adjectives too. :wink: Of course darts are more dangerous and make deeper impressions.

But darts is way cooler :slight_smile:

hold it rite there… license and registration be for were going anyway :wink: beautiful pair of headlights uv got there i must say :stuck_out_tongue: :smiley:

bond

No kidding - lol. Some days I feel more “classic” than others … :roll_eyes:

Bingo!..er…Bullseye!

Hum…in case nobody told ya, D, half the..ahem…people in the world are unhinged.

:roll_eyes:

:wink:

Oh my officer…what shiny handcuffs you have! :smiley:

The seat’s comfy, too…:stuck_out_tongue:…and I’ve gotta full tank. :wink:

Well, I’m pretty sure you aren’t unhinged. Although I’m pretty sure I’d hate to see your angry side… It would probably get ugly :slight_smile:

Hello there Sunshine. :slight_smile: You haven’t seen it…yet.

And you have a nasty side. Evidently you don’t know when to quit.

Once again…you gotta be quicker on those edits.

I’ve extended an invitation to you to come to my journal, more then once, in the nicest way. The first post you entered here…and then, once again, deleted is the one you should’ve left. Somehow you’ve managed to be polite to the other ladies in their journals, but not to me. You’ve asked for advice which I have freely given. Though you seem, somewhat, appreciative…you’ve continued to insult me.

Here’s the message, Daedelus.

In answer to the question you, also, deleted from your latest post here…“Are you a TAL or TAH girl?”

If you don’t get yourself the fuck together…Ima go all TAL on you…and boot your ass outta here.

:roll_eyes:

Molto dispiace, Signora Bella. Forse sono poco pazzo, personalmente anche. :wink:

Buona sera e arrivaderla, buona signora.

Hi Fives Bella. Very ladylike answer, And like Angelina, you take no prisoners. I love your journal btw :slight_smile:

That’s ok Bella, he’s done the same thing to me. And I got PM’s from 2 of the ladies within minutes. I’d post what they told me, but out of respect for their privacy I’m not going to. I’m gonna PM them to you though, as I know they wouldn’t mind my doing that.

Well, I guess I’ve got a nasty habit of pushing peoples buttons and not being able to tell teasing from unwanted harassment. I already apologized to Bella in Italian in my last post on her journal, but just to let you all know, I’m very sorry. I was just teasing. Maybe it didn’t come across that way :frowning: I feel really bad. I guess I’ll just keep my big mouth shut :frowning:

I should just be more forward and say you are all a great bunch of folks, especially you Mark, Bella, and anybody else I might have offended. When I’ve talked to people that hardly know me before, esp. women, honestly telling them how I felt, they always seemed to treat me like I was lame/insincere. I’ve even had it used against me and had my feelings hurt. I suppose I have alot to learn :frowning:

This is the side of you I’d like to see.

A lot of writers “throw up” on the page when they’re hammering it out. But that’s before it’s “published”. Evidently you think twice after putting pen to paper…hence the multitude of edits. We’re all friends here, Daedelus, and you’re welcome to join us. But even when we disagree or are “critical”, with one another, we try hard not to stand in judgement…and, for the most part, get along very well. That doesn’t mean you can’t express your true opinion. It’s how you chose to do it that’s important. Truth is, I’ve met some unbelievable people on this forum…and I’ve “been around the block one or twice”, myself. Frankly, you’d be hard pressed to come across another group like this.

I think you’re a smart guy with a lot to offer and this is a good opportunity for all of us to learn.

Life’s hard and often unfair. We get beat up and it makes us easily hurt/defensive. We’ve all been there. Everybody’s got a story. Everybody’s had a rough time in one way or another, no one is immune, and no one gets away unscathed. Including me. So a little humour, understanding and empathy go a lot further than put downs, condescension and criticism. So, relax a little and join the party. There’s always room for one more. :slight_smile:

Well, you’re in for a treat. :slight_smile: We’re not like that here…if you behave like a gentleman you’ll be treated as such. Take a look around. If you’re as smart as you seem and as charming as you can be…:wink:

No time like the present.

Le vostre scuse sono accettate, mio amico…prego, non lo ripetono. :wink:

I must admit iv occasionally been guilty in going over the top with a few of my posts (im not flaming for nothing lol ), but i managed to edit them quickly afterwards to reflect a more unbiased view.

…and surely thats my right! I’m relieved my pre-edited posts havnt attracted the responses Daedelus’s has.

Did you insult another member and then edit flaming?

No i wouldn’t say “insult”, just unwarranted ire :roll_eyes:…but i really don’t know exactly the content of Daedelus’s un-edited posts so…cant say

I guess if i were to let slip something offensive in one of my posts id want the freedom to edit it without being held accountable for my un-edited post!

This is not to criticize Mark and Bella"s reaction… if it were me that was offended im sure id react the same.

Also, i hope im not opening up something thats already been resolved…
