You may, but I don't. Just yesterday I decided to erase people in my contacts whom I realize only call me when they need something. Or if they are generally rude, though when they call, they are so nice....

People are tiring. I'd rather mow the lawn with the energy.

Then get off it!

I say my peace here, correct people sometimes, and admit when I've been rightly corrected. If someone keeps on after I said (typed) my thoughts/facts, I'm done with that thread.

Along the lines of the first comment: An old nurse friend of mine had a Rice student in the hospital who tried to kill himself over a girl. When he was able to get out of bed, she dragged him down to the cancer ward and told him, "These people have something to worry about. You losing you're little egghead girl friend is not something to worry about"
