Well, since it was pointed out that I’ve been cluttering up these boards for a year, I thought I’d jot a few thoughts down.
Even though I did find this site because of an interest in what was going on in NYC theatre, I actually decided to start posting more out of an interest in the social aspect. I felt, and still feel, that this is an opportunity to experience the beginning stages of where human interaction is headed.
Along those lines, I discovered how difficult it is to get your point across when you have most of the usual ‘tools’ removed – little things like inflection and eye contact. I certainly have not taken to it like a duck to water, and have made a few blunders – some, unfortunately, that turned out to be alienating and damaging.
But, as in all the other areas of my life, I have simply tried to learn what I could and carry on with at least the best of intentions.
I truly enjoy the opportunity to chat with people literally from all over the globe, and have really treasured having this introduction lead to some real-world friendships along the way.
Overall, despite whatever goes on in our little neighborhood, I think most people here are wonderfully fun and invigorating – bravo to us!
And just because, a very special thank you to the beautiful posters whom I feel lucky enough to call friends, and also for the vast awareness and knowledge made available here for me to learn and grow from (especially from Margo, Magruder and Namo.)
Rob, Craig and JOSE’ (
