I am the individual who has no "sensitivity gene". I am blunt and like blunt people. I am the person who blocks emails because they contain poems, music or others stupid stuff (my opinion that that stuff is stupid to send to people - don't take offense ) - I don't just block those people I give them an email address that I NEVER go to. Sensitive people get on my nerves.

I also don't know when people who are "sentitive" are attacking me and have to be told by others who know how I am. THey are simply not very good at attacking people. Nor do I know very often when I have offended them.

Sensitive people and I tend to stay away from one another. Broke people and lazy people also don't come to me often asking for a loan/money or to keep their kids. Being a blunt to the point kinda person has it's perks.

Extremely sensitive people I have come in contact with are more times than not excuse makers. I don't listen to that garbage for one minute. Either get the job done or get out. Either own up to what you did or said or move out of my way. I don't like wasting time on those types of people who don't do what they need to do inorder to live a productive life.

LOL - that was hysterical. Jabberwocky was the first poem I ever memorized. I can still repeat it from memory after 40 years.

Didja read the book, too? I was totally amazed, when I was leaving the old church, to have an extremely profound and memorable Alice in Wonderland dream about leaving. Detailed beyond measure, in color, in the dream, I was Alice, running out of the rabbit-hole church! That did not offend me!

Well, I'm off on a short camping trip. Can't wait to get back and see what Crosswalk Craziness from Crosswalk Crazies has gone on!

I wondered why you never answer all those cute forwards that I send you. I just assumed you don't love Jesus since they CLEARLY state that if you don't send the e-mail to at least 10 people PLUS the person that sent it to you (that'd be me), then you don't love Jesus. I'm glad to know that it's merely insensitivity. I'm not quite so offended now.

Read it when I was young. The poem was all that stuck. Enjoy the trip.
