    please play the south.

    the art of posting: is it nature or nurture? i think i am a thread killer, i read the posts almost daily, but rarely post myself. it seems that when i post the thread goes to sleep... any ideas? am i missing something as far as posting etiquette?
    maybe i am better skilled at being an audience member than a player in the fan band. :)
    just a random thing man......keep posting if you want interaction, it will happen


    peace

    funny....I seriously considered that and now laugh at myself for being to lazy to correct it, so in my head it was the universal "man" like in the stoner way....which led to the "peace" that followed

    Ha, I think I undertand. Most of my posts are not responded to. Perhaps read, perhaps absorbed, but not a lot of interaction. But that is how I offer it. If I want a response then I have to make the effort and make it obvious. Most times I am just thinking out loud...and an answer is not required.
    But still I post. Like graffitti.



    And lovely thought, JTR, whoever you are: "Sharing experience and mutual realization of what we are collectively witnessing and together feeling and understanding is what live Pearl Jam is all about. A list doesn't help the waiting. "

    Boa Noite.

    LOL, that's cool, i figured, but since i am new here, i wanted to be clear from the beginning, not that it matters if i am male or female, but obviously i am neurotic... ;)

    that's funny, i have been reading so long and your name is definately one in my head when i think of who posts on this thread. just so you know, your graffitti is read and absorbed.

    I love being at a Pearl Jam show....
    aside from my wife and children it is my number one desire (aside from the breathing, eating, drinking I think). I really, really need to see them soon. I love the standing in line for tickets, throwing the football in the parking lot with my buddy and most of all experiencing the music with a whole bunch of other people who love Pearl Jam too.

    I agree it is funny and I am just as neurotic. I have posted at times and then thought, "what the hell, dont everybody run from your computer at once, its not like I am Chris Hansen with Dateline"

  • LOL, very funny. i can't wait to go to another pj concert. last year i flew to LA, but before that hadn't seen them since 2000, and only saw them once before that when they opened for the stones in oakland. i don't think i can take another pj drought. my coworkers are just about through with me talking about the "might happen" concerts this summer...

    Once again I can relate....I have failed to convert all three of my closest coworkers, my office mate who is 64 calls them "trash" but I love her anyways ans still drive her crazy with playing it on my computer. To her dismay she knows all about the possible tour and how they didn't come anywhere near last year.

    We work with MHMR a lot by the way, but up the Brazos from you in Parker County.

    Good night for my Canes. A win and we are back in the playoff picture. The "atmosphere" was back in the arena tonight too. I'm tired! See all you wonderfull individuals tomorrow. Would be nice to hear something then, but I'm starting to think it is going to be a while before we get anything in the way of an official announcement of shows.

    thats awesome, where do you work?
    judge's office, we do mental commitment hearings on individuals sent to Wichita Falls or one of the few other hospitals that accept mental commitments. It is something I think most people are unaware happens and I happen to think our state government is horrible when it comes to its handling of the mentally ill. I think the process sucks. Dont get me wrong I think MHMR is great but not funded near enough. We see the same patients time after time again and the system never seems to help them. I believe you have to help yourself as well, but I just dont think Texas does near enough to help those who are in need. Ok that is my rant sorry. I feel better though.

    i absolutely agree! i read statistics the other day about mental health funding...texas gets about $30 per capita, the u.s. as a whole averages $90 per capita, and waco, tx, is about $10 per capita. definately something wrong with this picture. i no longer work on the MH side, i am now on the MR side, but its not much better as far as funding. now i really have to go, my husband said it is time for bed. have a good day tomorrow, nice to know a fellow pj fan in a similar line of work.

    Flashback time! Think I'll throw that 98 Raleigh boot in the car today. Will definitely have the sun roof open on what should be a beautiful 85 degree day in The Triangle.

    Now matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead
