MY SOAP BOX

Rudeness: the disrespect and failure to behave within the context of a 
society or a group of people's social laws or etiquette.

Just because something is in "black & white" doesn't mean it is 100%
true.
Even if it is in a news paper or on your favorite talk show.
 
Just because one person says something is wrong doesn't mean it is.
 
Opinions ... Everyone has one ... Live with it ... 
 
God gave us a brain for a reason, (Genesis or Evolution, either way even
 
The "Big Bang" had to start somewhere) don't believe everything you
read,
and even less of what you hear.
 
Sometimes people (even me) need to remember, email stories may not be 
true, but some times they are just a nice story that still should be
shared
in the belief that they should be ... 
 
And for the record, the part about the dancing dogs showing up on your 
screen if you forward an email to 10 people in 2 minutes doesn't happen 
- if it did it would be considered a virus.
 
Email Etiquette ... Yes there is such a thing ... Google it. 
 
Take Another Look Before Hit that "SEND" button and if it is a
particularly 
"hot" topic, give it at least a few minutes of rest (or even over night)
after you have finished it and before you press the "Send" button. 
 
They say "words said in anger can not be unsaid" ... But emails sent in 
anger can be quoted word for word ... (Sorry I didn't post this sooner
Dale) 
 
Spell check is not always your friend ... Or is that fiend ...
 
Thank you to all who make this an outlet for information and
specifically
to the Lisbon Reporter for giving us an outlet to post the various news,
 
information, facts and opinions for the Lisbon Community.
 
I'll step off my soap box and offer it up to whom ever cares to use it.
 
On a side note, has anyone ever put a tomato in a fruit salad?
