The new look for the board and old guidelines

I stop in now and then and notice that we now have many more questions and many more answers.  Even w/more questions,, I think the old guideline of one question per poster per day-altho the rules say post much less frequent postings, is still a good one.

Altho there are a dozen q's, only a few posters are posting multiple times about nothing.  the point is to get as many topics and as much knowlege and stories shared, not to have a running monologue for a few.  A few questions no one even tries to answer b/c there are no answers to non questions.  Real concerns get lost.  This comes up every few months and always caused confusion w/the newbies.  No one's pickin' on you, newbies.

Its confusing for us all, b/esp for those just starting treatment.  Me?  I don't really care b/c I tx'd and cl'd 4 yrs ago.  any lingering sx's are gone, my health is better and I don't have to play Russian roulette w/my health.

Just thinkin' about you guys and how ease of navigation and amt of info are so important.

I just got home a little while ago.
My 3rd shift called off again for tonight, so I left work early to come home and get some rest before going back tonight at 10
My daughter GOT INTO an ACCIDENT in my parking lot,...right in front of me while I was standing and waiting for her to pick me up (she had my truck today) so,......I of course had to go through all that stuff that you go through when there has been an accident.
I am struggling not to just melt-down.
My boss showed up before I could get out of there, and of course all he talked about was all the work that still needs to be done before my "big-tour" on tuesday.

Here's a question for ya'll. Do you have a hard time telling co-workers, friends or reletives what is really wrong; that you have HepC? Sometimes I feel like if tell them I'm sick from Hep C tx that they have this preconcieved thing that I'm an ex druggie or have HIV, some people I have told said "oh no big thing, I had that years ago" (what they had was A or B)I also do not want to have to expain over and over again to people what it's all about. Comments please, Thanks...Rich

Forgive me for nterupting your important dialogue, but I think Yellow is the color, where as Yeller describes some one who howls and moans loadly. Thus, a Naked Yeller would of course be a gal who..... oh never mind.....

Gotta say, it sure is nice to see people willing to help us improve. Hall monitors were always under appreciated, in my view.

Thanks Goofy, that puts it in a different and possibly a more flattering light. I guess she could be all yellow and hollering - now that's a sight in my mind's eye. Thanks for your valuable input. Mike

Careful, NYG has a 44.  Wait, she's lost a lot of weight on tx, maybe it's more like a 32 now.

LOL - Ya know she's mentioned flashing the 44 in the car. I always thought it would be better if she had a pair. 'Course it could be hard to steer while waving those things around.
