View Full Version : Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam and Easter...

Hi,

Is there any way to filter out the spam? I would say that it is really
pissing me off however I have to accept that it is me that is pissing me
off...

Hope everyone had a safe Easter! I was drinking out of the little kids
punch bowl instead of the big kids bowl and no one noticed or even asked.
The fact the my ex-ex's family doesn't really drink much and knows my
history does make it easier.

This may sound a bit crazy however I believe that my choice to try drinking
again really helped me to see that it isn't a valid option for me. Even
though at times I can be moderate, I don't seem to be able or willing to
moderate when that is. Just like when I chose to start smoking again, I
soon realized that this is simply something that will be an all or nothing
behavior. I choose life over escape...

Back to work, looking for work!

Kirk S.

My newsreader, Agent, is very good at filtering stuff. I have it set
to not download the content of any message exceeding 500 lines, can
set up filters to ignore by individual, thread or key word.

Welcome to the first part of AA's Step 1. If you can't moderate, you
can't moderate. The second part could be describing the thinking that
led you to the little kids' bowl instead of an adult glass of
something else instead.
