Thanksgiving = Medicare and food stamps?

A thought I had either Wednesday or Tuesday afternoon (don't ask, I don't remember which):Granted: the puritan settlers who colonized Massachusetts ("The Pilgrims") were not the first, or the only, Europeans in America, and that our modern nation, while derived from their existence, is not necessarily historically dependent upon their survival.

Hi, I'm X, I found your journal through Y, I thought your post on noun was really adjective. Mind if I friend you?

(Bad attempt at humor. Retrying in 30 sec...)

Hi, I'm JD, I found your journal through LJ support and other communities, and I find your posts and comments interesting (the brief exchange we had about IRC was kinda fun, too). Mind if I friend you?

Well done, and go right ahead! Lol.

I include that because if I'm a hardass on my info page, then I can be lazy everywhere else, but if I'm lazy on my info page, then I sort of have zero grounds to be a hardass elsewhere, and I'm schizo enough that I want to reserve that right. - Though I see you have your own rules about commenting, etc, laid out too. Glad to know that I'm not the only one with a bug up my ass! Thanks for actually playing by my ridiculous rules (meant to be a counter against people who respond to friends only journals with "Hey! Friend me! K, thx, bye!").

Yeah, my 'rules' need some work because they were quickly thrown together and haven't been updated in a while... it's mostly an admonition against anonymous anon comments. :|
