new but easily lost member

whom ever was the person who was kind enough to ask me to belong to your group i say "thank you".

i fear i will not be long here on this site if i speak freely on the general public forum.

if am able to stay here in spite of my speech then i no longer need to express myself on the general forum.

what are the limits at this place ?  i am a very conservative person in language but not conservative in agenda. i feel very mormon though i am not a baptized mormon.  i dislike war but i dislike chaos even more.  i believe in order for the undisciplined peoples of the world and freedom for the discilplined ( to many one may see a "racist comment" but i only see it as a post-colonial truth ).

drop me now if you think i do not belong.  no hard feelings for...

i do not know the general room on this site for speech.  perhaps i will not  last long here either.

a dim candle am i, but in my small place it lights the books of my room.

if i disappear for my views then i pass with the wind of men better than i and who have suffered more than i or thought better thoughts than i for the same purpose.

i remember the burning woman in fahrenheit 451 who died in her books more than i try to remember the end of that movie.]

let ukraine be free.

You are free to express yourself in the forums or notes, as long as it isn't annoying, trolling, offensive, etc. By the way, I saw your comments in the "I am Zod" thread and burst out laughing. You have a good sense of humor. I would have responded, but the Zod guy blocked me for making a lighthearted joke about his arrogant posts.

dry or acerbic humor is hard to see as humor in print.

i fall back on oscar wilde's statement when he was asked at the point of entry at new york when queried by the customs officer if "he had anything dangerous to declare" ( this is the era of bombing by anarchists in new york city ) and oscar wilde answered, " only myself ".

You seem educated in the field of literature. That is good, as I think that you would make a good "intellectual chess player".

Hi there rabbit. Go ahead and speak as you see fit. I know how to tell you I disagree! 

...i have shot and powder enough ( but as a coward look quickly for a bit of brush to run into to escape if i perceive that i face an equal or better ).
