 birolDue to the nature of my profession it is unethical for me to state an evaluation about someone without first meeting that person for a face to face session. Therefore, I am unable to submit a vote in this matter. [8D]

 I never said you were an alcoholic. You made that assumption. I just said you were addicted, and at that time we were talking about posting messages in the forum, therefore I thought it went without saying that you were addicted to posting, alcohol was never mentioned until you came up with the subject.

 Ohhh, she is good, and takes life seriously when it comes to her profession.  Well, she is right I was poking fun at her, now I will back down as she thinks it is not funny.
 
 When we meet, I bet she is going to analyze me with a microscope [8D]

 birolOk, you know yourself, stop lying. If you don t read my posts what were you doing here reading this thread and voting ? Unless somebody who knows you told you that this poll has this option, in which case you are not lying and you wanted to vote ...

 I read the thread because you had posted about it in the campfire forum. I read a lot of polls, doesn t mean I vote on them. And I have no idea what you mean by " Unless somebody who knows you told you that this poll has this option" . I never said I don t read your posts.

 ShirleyT,
 
 I guess we have a miscommunication, I did not address this(Right above, the  one you quoted)  post to you at all [;)]
 
 It was meant for the person who voted " don t like him, don t read his posts" . It was also meant to be little bit humorous as well, but came out dry.
 
 My apologies if I offended you. I think highly of you and would never do anything to offend you.

 birolBirol,
      I think you need a job.  You are just fine in my book.  It was sad to think someone voted they didn t like you[: (].  Oh well, they just don t know you[:D].  I seen you with the children, I think you are a good dad,  this alone gets you a gold star in my books.

 birolHow do we conclude the poll ? Does it do it all by itself ?
 
 Obviously I am not well liked and hiding my depression. So Now I am double depressed and wanna end my depression. And the way to do that will be ........

 birolTo those of you who contacted me directly, I appreciate your concerns, but I don t think I am really depressed. I started this as a joke to bring some fun to at least some of us [;)].
 
 What was a surprise was people who don t like me took the time to let me know, which of course made me sad. I try not to step on any toes, but I guess nobody can make everyone happy as we are all so different, and right in out own ways.
 
 We now return to our regular broadcast of fun and laughter. [8D]

 birolAs my BIL always used to say about my dad -- when he starts paying me compliments, I know he s mad at me.
 
 My father was always putting people down, but meant as a joke, so whenever he was nice to my BIL, we knew there was something wrong.
 
 
 Birol, remember that the majority care -- who cares about the rest!

Post by: birol on Jul 21, 2003, 09:46 AM
 birolWoow, the votes are increasing so are the number of people who don t like me.  And there is now at least one person who thinks I am outright depressed.
 
 How do those companies who poll population make sense of all that info ?
 
 I can t wait till the poll completes :) It is so nic to know that 42 people cares enough to vote ! Even when it is to say they hate me :) Did I mention I am also a negative behaviour attention seeker ?  [8D][8D][8D]

 birolI ve met you birol, and can say IMHO that you don t seen depressed.  I think your just bored!  Go out and take a walk, jog, or start a garden!  There won t be a lot of summer left, so I suggest you get OUT and enjoy the sunshine!  [:D]  Although I think you are trying to get to be the #1 poster, so you are most likely spending to much time in front of the computer!!!  [:D] [:)] [:D] Besides, with everything else going on in your life, it s to easy to get caught up in " WHAT IF..."   Don t dwell on anything that ll stress you out.  Push it out of your mind and sit back and try to appreciate all the little things in life!

 birol...i am an rn and i say " GO SEE A DOCTOR!  NOW!!!"   please.
 
I do not exhibit any of the symptoms ....... I am sorry but I do not feel a need to go and see my doctor.
 
 I don t feel tired, I wake up early in the mornings, I am still looking for a job, I don t want to die (Not yet anyways, maybe when I am say like 100+ ?), I still have my sense of humor, I don t whine or make miserable sounds or drive my DW crazy. My only handicap is I post here a lot, and that keeps me out of trouble, and I am in front of the computer anyways because of that ISP thingie , I gotta play DoD a lot :) in between.
 
 I am not arguing with you, you are a profesisonal , and you might be seeing something I don t see with your trained eyes, which I respect of course. E-mail me if you wish , as I do not want to ignore a good advice ....
 
 P.S. I also do not have a drinking problem. I sometimes drink, but that is once a week or less less frequent.
 P.P.S. Jo Ann, in case you didn t know, I post like this because I am trying to catch up to tlhdoc before October, sort of a competition between us [;)]
