WHO IS STILL HERE?

[CWO3ROBBIE]

It's Friday.

Chucks is gone and so is his Q&A Group. As JayLee feared so are the Vibes. Since there is no Question and answer group there appears to be no check in.

 

So Let's do it over here. It's the start of the weekend! Time to have fun.

 

There is all kinds of bad news.

1. Looks like tbd is splintering.

2. After two days the TBD Stalwarts has only 7 members.

3. The Stock Market tanked yesterday.

4. The end of the world is near.

5. The Zombies are still here

 

Everybody check in and give me some good news.

You had a broken foot, too? I didn't know that. Sheesh, what is this, land of the broken feet?? :-P

[Ubu]

Me...but not as much as I used to.  

 

Good news?  I'm not naked.  

[TeeBubbaDee]

Good news here too Ubu. I'm still here, and I'm not naked either. Of course that may be subject to change without notification.

[d's girl]

I'm here, and partially not naked.

 

[Quinn]

Not naked, but channelling Stir...

[Ruby Red Crystal]

Hoping for naked soon....I am ready to crash.

[Bob Stepp]

Naked.........a sense of vulnerability and fear.

Nude............a quiet confidence, self assured.

 

 

[Jaylee53]

Done both.

Most excellent definition.

[d's girl]

what are your sources, Mr. Stepp?

[Bob Stepp]

I learned that at a seminar back when I was operating my photography studio. During a session on glamour and nude photography we were cautioned not to use the word "naked" in referrring to an unclothed female.

[d's girl]

hmmm... well, I'll go with the context of photography being different.

I like the word naked. I think it connotes vulnerability in a lovely way, and not fear at all.

"nude" sounds a bit sterile to me.

When I had surgery one of my docs said rather succinctly "Just think, tomorrow you will be laying naked in front of 12 people".   I would much rather have the thought of laying "nude" at that moment. It's all a frame of mind.
