TO ALL: I have changed the name of this thread to accurately reflect the fact that this thread constitutes the deep thoughts of ALL of the fine participants here. It is now Deep Thoughts WITH Dexx.

I am looking forward to spending a little more time here as I am disassociating myself from a few other threads (due to the increasing number of distasteful characters).

When I was a little younger, there was nothing like a good fight (verbal and/or physical...either was just fine with me). Due to the fact that I was trained in an offensive-oriented fighting method, being the one to initiate the contact was of paramount importance to winning. Unfortunately, these same skills managed to get me into trouble more than once.

The last few years I have diligently tried to distance myself from the aggressive personality traits I once was proud of. I am finding that peace of mind, pure happiness and the ability to remain calm during adversity are much more worthy pursuits.

Unfortunately, I occasionally return to my old self (as anyone who has followed me on the GLOW or FAMH threads can attest to). What is most frustrating to me about SI is that anyone can post anything (right of wrong) without virtually any accountability. This fact I absolutely loathe.

There are people on these threads (names withheld) that I would take apart if I saw them on the street. Perhaps, with that in mind, I should appreciate that I can't easily find them.

Well, I will sign off for now and look in my refrigerator for a nice calm glass of cool water (would prefer some Aqua Vie from AVBC, but water will have to do).

Anyway, here's to future great thoughts from all of you. Thanks for posting here.
