If you read things elsewhere either in posts, or pms that have circulated, either about me or moderators on this site such as you, you'd conclude that we were pretty unpleasant people. The vitriol isn't difficult to find. Of course when it comes from people who you thought were 'friends', it is initially difficult to understand or deal with. At the end of the day you can't change what is said behind your back but you know yourself what is true. Being comfortable in your own skin is what it is about and sometimes you have to accept that people don't reach the same levels of integrity that you set for yourself. |

wow. that was probably the funniest thing I heard all day.
seriously, David. I think that while The Ledge is only a Message Board, so far the people here have been nothing but pleasant to me, and I really can't say anything bad about any of you posters.... While I have had the fortune to befriend someone somewhat off the board, [I still want my email back by the way!!! ]; I don't come here to look for friends. I come to the message board to talk with people who have the same interest as me. Fleetwood Mac, and related members. Sure I'll post in this 'chit chat' fourm at times, but only if I have something REALLY important to share, just to talk, or if I see an interesting thread. But unless you knew the person pre-ledge or have a great relationship with them after meeting them [chances are at a concert], then I would say the Ledge isn't about comeraderie, its more about expressing your interests, opinions, and ideas. |

Actually, many of us met during the SYW your after chatting for years online. The concert experiences were like tribal rituals that many of us bonded during. So, I think love for many of us springs from that. And, interestingly, La Nicks and/or FM seem to be connected to that somehow. An example is the trandomn steakhouse a bunch of us chose in Chicago, where La Nicks unbeknownst to us had eaten the night before. Or, some awful steakhouse in Detroit where Thrown Down randomly came on the radio as we were eating. Then, Paula and shoe hurl incident. So, I think people look back to those times. I think many do not have that experience.

My favorite restaurant: http://www.clearmansrestaurants.com/northwoods.html I pray for peace & understanding for everyone (even my seven enemies on The Chain), & I recommend the Canadian film "Paddle to the Sea," with its extraordinarily simple & sweet tale of hopes dashed & reaffirmed as well as its lustrous visual & moral qualities. It was produced by the National Film Board of Canada in 1966 & directed by the explorer-filmmaker Bill Mason. http://www.nfb.ca/collection/films/f...v=h&lg=en&exp=

I post because of I'm a "hard-core" fan of FM and Stevie Nicks and this is an acceptable format for my OCD tendencies...I've posted for many years, sometimes more, sometimes less...I've met some Ledgies at concerts which is lots of fun...and even attended a NOTS...but I've not yet made any lasting friendships and have not fallen "in love" on the Ledge...
overall, the Ledge feeds my internal fantasy life not my real one... oooh...and...I secretly love the feuds and have sided against or with many a person kicked off the Ledge...

Maybe what Musicman is trying to say, is that he is grateful for the Ledge and its members. He's still a kid and doesn't have the life experiences, nor the vocabulary, to express himself and likes having the outlet here to talk about his struggles and perhaps his fears, among people he calls friends.
No matter how much dissing goes on with the Ledge, (and believe me, I have gotten my share of PM's which hurt my feelings), when people are kind, there is something that goes along with the feelings of gratitude. And in that moment of gratitude, and of feeling accepted and less alone, feelings of love surface, because you like to be treated that way. Maybe that's what he's getting at. (But with me, being a nosey and rude person, and being so wrapped up in myself, not to realize that I am this way, what do I know?) Last edited by Betsy; 06-21-2008 at 10:14 AM.. |
