hmm...

I wonder how many people use lj as a personal journal, and how many more write for folks linked to them.... I'm pretty much the former, with a tinge of the latter, when I want attention. :)

Something I'd like to see... those of you that actually read this, and aren't part of a weird dead link, could you post a hello in my journal? I'm going to trim the fat off of my friends list, and I don't want to snip anyone who actually reads this stuff. A few more things are going to be going to private soon, and I'd like to give people the opportunity to jump on, or off now, before I break out the link knife.

thanks!

I'm not on your friends list to be trimmed but i read you religiously. well, as religiously as I do anything.
I look for the juicy tidbits about your new flame, and love your hippy ways.
And you will be on my friend's list till the day I get a life and stop Ljing. :) because you were one of the first people I ever put on it, and I have NO regrets.
you're a sweetheart.

posting a hello.

Hello and velcome to Schprockets...I am your host, Laura. You may touch my monkey now. TOUCH IT!

I'm here! And I love reading your journal. Heck, if you can pick up on a Sprockets reference, you must be a good guy. :-)

eee! scotto! don't cut me! i like you, boy-eee. i read every day.

[moonmama.livejournal.com]

I read. And if I have something to say, I'll say it. Usually, I'm quiet and kinda shy.

hi! I read what you say. :)

[ex-sanssouci422.livejournal.com]

Hey Scotto. I read ya, but if you need to cut, no problemo! :)

Re:

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

nope, just cutting the deadwood. I've seen a lot of journals that have just stoppped moving, lately. :) I'm going to keep the folks that read me ,and snip the others, to make the list more manageable.

Re: hi scott

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

hey there, I actually read you via my alter-ego, jackhammer. but my dual list has gotten unmanageable. you'll certainly be linked to once all the dustclears, as will any toher repliers. I'm giving them all a week to reply.

[sweetalyssm.livejournal.com]

ahhh, don't cut me off!

Re: hi scott

[lianna.livejournal.com]

hey- that wasn't a hint to be added. Really. I just wanted to comment that I do read you and like your calm (and often funny), socially and environmentally aware
philosophies.
I also LOVE that pic of you.
Have a good time sifting through the deadwood and housecleaning scotto :) It's good for the soul every now and then.

I really write my journal for myself. I just let others read it. Mwahahahahaha! My mind is a scary place.

And, hey, the Tarpo-ster (Heheh, I just said that outloud and I sounded silly) and I are baking you cookies. Gosh darnit, I like you. ;-)

I already asked you to marry me today...

Yo!

[chicky.livejournal.com]

(I just like saying "Yo!". No one ever says it anymore)

I'm here, and I read you all the time :)

[daizee.livejournal.com]

if you cut me * i will get on a plane * fly to florida * hunt you down * and hurt you severly.

gulp. i mean: i wub you scotto. don't give me the ol heave-ho :)

Hi and stuff.

[danigolden.livejournal.com]

One time when I was a little girl, we had Jack Dempseys, they were so ugly. Who would want such ugly fish?

Then my daddy got drunk and dumped the fish tank in the street.

They were meanie fish anyway.


And the moral of the story is: Don't cut Dani from your LJ list.

[petfish.livejournal.com]

Moo.

Re: Hi and stuff.

[daizee.livejournal.com]

hehe.
that was the silliest thing i've read all day!

Re: Hi and stuff.

[danigolden.livejournal.com]

It's true! We came home and there were fish parts and little rocks and glass in the street and my dad was sitting in the front yard watching cars drive by. It was very weird.

Re: Hi and stuff.

[daizee.livejournal.com]

do we have the same dad by chance?
mine didn't throw the fishie into the street, but he was always drunk on the front porch.

Re: Yo!

[isis.livejournal.com]

I say "yo" all the time. I do it a lot more via type, but I speak it all the time, too.

But this is also from the girl who still, quite regularly, listens to Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby, which I once (a couple months ago) posted the lyrics to in my journal.

He had a little chair that he would sit in, or when it was hot he would fill up the plastic kiddie pool and sit in there. All the neighborhood kids were afraid of him but laughed at him at the same time.

Re: Hi and stuff.

[daizee.livejournal.com]

mine has this crazy grizzly bear looking beard and hairdo that is enough to scare children and adults alike.

i remember one summer morning i awoke with him pointing a toy gun at me through my bedroom window... whispering: "kellie. wake up. there's a gun in the window."
i still have nightmares of that.

Oh my god. Our dads must be cousins or something.

I still get it! Recently I took my fiancee to meet my dad and he shakes his hand and goes:

"Are you fuckin my daughter?!?! ARE YA?!?"

John just stood there with his mouth and eyes wide open. He must have nearly peed his pants. My dad just started giggling and walked away.
