The Rules
Oct 24, 2007
1. I welcome people of all political factions, religions, and ethnicities.
 
  2. I will not tolerate phrases such as "you're wrong", "you're stupid", or "you're insane" in my blog comments. I do not necessarily say this about blog comments to me alone, but in reply to other posters, when quoting their previous comments, these phrases will not be acceptable.
 
  3. If you have a quarrel or an issue with somebody else who has commented on my blogs, or somebody else on my contacts list, please take it up with them, off of my page.
 
  4. If you have a quarrel or an issue with me personally, please take it up with me, via PM. I would much rather try to work out a solution in private, than have our personal problem in public.
 
  5. I am looking for opinions when I bring up topics or questions in my blog. Though I do respect debates, I am certainly not looking for an altercation. Please be respectful of others' opinions and simply state your side- do not attack their views, or they themselves, personally.
 
  6. If you think you are reading someone's words in a certain tone, and it makes you want to retaliate, please ask first what was intended before unleashing a reply you may regret later. Remember that typed words on a screen can be read in many different ways, and people may leave out punctuation in their thoughts accidentally. In many cases, punctuation helps one to figure out the tone, but it is not the case every time.
 
           
  How You Are In Love 
 
  You take a while to fall in love with someone. Trust takes time.
 
 You give and take equally in relationships.
 
 You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time.
 
 You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change.
 
 You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.
             
  What Your Handwriting Says About You 
 
  You are a laid back person with rather low energy. You aren't lazy... you *are* sensitive and empathetic.
 
 You are very extroverted and outgoing. You are loving, friendly, and supportive. However, you are also manipulative and controlling at times.
 
 You are balanced and grounded. You know how to get along well with others.
 
 You need a bit of space in your life, but you're not a recluse. You expect people to give you a small amount of privacy, and you respect their privacy as well.
 
 You are conservative, old fashioned, and a little stubborn. You are resistant to change.
 
 You are a decent communicator. You eventually get your point across, but sometimes you leave things a bit ambiguous.
             
  You Would Choose Love 
 
  Money may buy a little happiness, but not the happiness of true love.
 You rather have a true soulmate than a private jet.
 And while many people may claim they would choose love too...
 You're one of the few who would really do it.
             
  Your Love is Represented by a Purple Rose 
 
  For you, love is all about chemistry and attraction. You totally believe in love at first sight.
 If a relationship is right, you know it from the start.
 You're often sure of your feelings. And you're not afraid to express them.
