cosmo: You can use my page for anything you want!...Those are good suggestions, and I think the one about responding would indeed cut back on the "bored so let's fight" syndrome...

I think the mods are on vacation, either that or they're leaving us on our own to see how we'll react when teacher is absent!...So far I think they'd be pretty disappointed..."Mod Granny"...LOL sounds like a tv show in the '60's! πŸ˜† πŸ˜† ❀

Granny, I have to give you props on putting out that fire on the Terror at night post. I think you can do this job mama. Mod granny in the making. πŸ˜‰

I think that the rules presented on this site are there for a reason, and should really start being enforced. Perhaps they also need to be tweaked. For example; when someone posts a story and chooses to allow comments and participate they must respond to any questions within 3-5 days. If no response is given by the poster then the mods should close that option on the story. Too many times an argument breaks out on someones post and the author never even bothers to answer any questions, or comment on advice. In my opionin that is a pointless argument.

I also think there should be a strike system. Posters who are rude, have keyboard rage, feel the need to push the religion issue, or just love to start trouble will be warned. 1, 2, 3 strikes You're Out!

I'm sorry, and I'm not usually vocal or confrontational. I just really love this site and I would hate to see it be brought down when we can do something to save it.

Sorry to use your page as my soap box granny. LOL! 😊 ❀

It's pretty unlike me to get involved in internet conflicts, but seriously, enough is enough. Every single day, the same people are picking a fight with someone. It's absurd. It's immature. It's pointless. It's the INTERNET for god's sake! If you want to fight, go to a bar and smash a beer bottle over someone's head. That's how it's done. Not silly online snarking.
Granny, I raise my margarita in a toast. Texas Hick Chick out. ❀

EVERY-ONE: At the risk of starting an all out war, I am going to post about something that has really been bugging me lately:

The new posters who are fueling fires all over this site have got to get your sh*t together and stop being such idiots... YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!...If I have to name people, I will... You have done nothing but ruin this site for those of us who've been here much longer, and actually caused one of the moderators to quit!...If you want controversy, go somewhere else and start your own site so we do not have to tolerate the insidious lack of ediquette demonstrated by you...

I, personally, refuse to allow you to take something away from me that I enjoy... Ignoring you hasn't worked... You just pick a new fight with someone who's screen name you don't recognise...

Get with the YGS program, or better yet: GO AWAY! 😠 😠 😠

Aaaw!
That was a sweet story!
In my opinion granny, it was your dad visiting you (since you think about him too much) and your grandbabies (to meet them since he wasn't able to see them) and he is saying "I LOVE YOU" to you guys through those feathers you saw. 😭

Really nice story granny,... "not always"... Can our departed loved ones show themselves to us,❀and in your experience your father did it in a way that was unique... No 3 and three signs is something he knew would register... And I can testify through our own liaisons the significants of that number!... 😊 good story and a refreshing change of rhythm that we need more of here a ygs,

We have a robot now, too. And I think a partridge in a pear tree. Gotta thank Kardegan for those!

Oops - sorry, Granny. I was just thinking about Dan, wondering when he's going to pop up over there and here he is. No wonder he's not over there! πŸ˜†

Scoops: I believe finding feathers in unusual places means that you've been visited by an angel... I don't think the color matters, but I really don't know... The reason I think this is my Dad is because of the timing...

I'm glad you're becoming better at recognizing the signs!...Good for you... Guess us loonies can do somethin' right, huh? 😊

Thanks for reading, you too Jennifer!

Do the feathers have any meaning other than just being feathers? Did your dad have a bird or something or does it have meaning to you?

Great story... Uplifting and bitter sweet.

I too am beginning to believe that there are signs all around, you just have to look.

Thanks for making me smile.

Granny when things happen in three's there is a meaning behind it. The way it was explained to me was it is The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I believe your father is watching over you. Thanks for sharing this experience with us. 😊 ❀
