Why do you click at the KT?
Comments (37)Question of the Day and other regular items (but I find that I'm not strongly attracted to, "I'll show you mine ...") - possibly partly because I'm on dial-up, too. I, too, am nosey and interested in a variety of subjects. I aso like to check topics of interest, and some where people are looking for ideas, advice, support, empathy, etc. I like to check what a number of my favourite people are talking about. I too find that a number of situations that I might have made a quick decision to reject turn out to be interesting, informative, to give me a good laugh, or some other things that make me click on some that I might be inclined to bypass, as I'm afraid that I may miss something interesting. I've felt that I have a tendency to be a thread killer, for I find that my post often seems to be the final one. I like to go back till I find subjects outlined in pink, indicating that I've looked at them before ... and no new posts since, to change them to blue. I also like to go back quite a few pages, on occasion. I sometimes feel that a topic there deserves a review. I thank many of you for your intelligence, concern for people and animals, plus people in other places, circumstances, etc., for the fun that you bring to the forum, and for sharing of yourselves here. And I appreciate that for many of you, we can have a disagreement at times without being disagreeable ... and often find that there are a number of aspects of a given situation where we do have quite a bit of agreement. Good wishes for one of the greatest New Years that you've ever seen! And some of us have seen quite a few. ole joyful P.S. Sometimes I make smart-ass comments, or play with peoples' names, etc. but it's meant in fun. If I have hurt anyone's feelings or angered them/you, I hope that you'll let me know, for I would like to get the issue straightened out ... I feel that we need to build relationships and understanding, not further alienation than there is in the world already. o j...See MoreKT Get together in Oklahoma
Comments (16)Joann, in Iowa, at Sandy's, we had a husband upset, cause there was no pool at the hotel. Thus, we bought that pool in that picture, and sat around it, with our feet in it. Linda and I were the only ones brave enough to don swim suits, and plop in to the pool nestea plunge style. It was a hoot. Yes, of course, that's me. :) Moni...See MoreKT'ers line of work or career
Comments (61)I spent 12 years at the telephone company. I worked directory assistance,and then long distance, I also helped with keeping the directory up -to-date and with keeping track of the hours everyone worked. I stayed home for a couple of years and when DD started school. I was bored and started working at the University of Georgia part time. Eventually, had part-time hours and full time work so I went to full time. I worked for the Institute of Continuing Legal Education. We provided cont. Ed. seminars for attorneys. I was an Event Planner officially but didn't plan the events. (go figure). I got the programs after they were over. I was the person that everyone went to when they needed something done yesterday. I retired May 1, 2010 but did go back to work in Feb. & March to help out during their busy time. It was nice. I was just part-time again and just had to go do my job and go home. No responsibility! The money was nice too. Linda...See MoreThe Hypothetical KT Country
Comments (143)We still need an Agricultural Commissioner, don't we? And a Land Commissioner? We've got to have fresh fruits and vegetables! Also, fresh meat and poultry, and seafood, so we need farmers and ranchers, fisheries, etc. Our AC and LC would oversee all of that, right? And I can't think of the proper name for it right now, but someone to see that the cereals, grains, canned & frozen foods we import come from reliable sources and are safe and healthy. Oh, and a modern, up to date, state of the art grocery store, which will need someone to manage it. Rusty...See Moreroxanna
