How lucky we are to be here because

[ericpasansai]

Because we can re-invent ourselves. Nobody knows. At home you were a shoe salesman or a door greeter in Walmart. Here you can be a PHILOSOPHER dispensing advice and wisdom like a pez machine. I mean really people who have become philosophers who ponder the meaning of life and digest all of the worlds problems and THEN give their opinions.

We can pick the avatar that we want. No longer a fat old man or a runt now you can be taurus the bull or superman even a dancing beetle You can call yourselves anything you want guitar man, benmart (I'll bet he worked for Walmart), friendly stranger (hmmm), How about elektrified cool name with 7,000 contributions. Who else has the time and the insights to have thousands and thousands of posts

We sure are lucky

And we have the satirists.

I've been hiding my identity as a highly-trained special ops assassin under cover of a shambling, safari shorts-wearing retiree, but your revealing post leaves me no choice but to kill you.

Geez; try being yourself and living with it....no matter where you are !

It's cool that "nobody knows' who or what the poster is or was.

A statement can then be evaluated on its own merits, not judged according to who said it.

Funny enough most of the Special Ops guys I have met in Thailand fit this description, Is the OP saying they ain't real..don't tell me so!!

I'm sticking to the same story as I always have, I maned the fryers at McDonald for two very long weeks (you know the 8 day kind) and gained enough knowledge for my 1700 word posts

Lucky to be ''where'' exactly ?

[FolkGuitar]

Some people save for half a lifetime to vacation in a place where they can be treated like royalty, and actually feel like it too... for a week or ten days.

Others simply retire to it in a place where it costs almost nothing.

Everyone has their fantasies. There are enough TV shows, Club Med's, and bar girls to prove it.

Escapism. Some watch it. Some live it.

We ARE lucky... We get to choose which.

These would make excellent lyrics for a song.
