I know a 40-yr-old man who hit on my wife’s Grandma. None of us could believe it. Why make a play for Grandma? It was strange, and we all bad-mouthed the guy. To make matters worse, he was married to the Grandma’s ex daughter-in-law. It was highly inappropriate, for many reasons. Shortly thereafter the guy wound up in the hospital. He had lung cancer — in his brain. The cancer was the cause of his bizarre behavior. We all felt wrong about the way we had bad-mouthed him. He died a couple of months later.

This Carol’s post was odd, in my opinion. It hardly even made sense. Inappropriate? Yes. However, the woman may be on medication; she could be going through a tough time; lots of things could be going on. I think people need to back off of this woman. Let the what-comes-around-goes-around law do its thing.

“How about those who stab in the back and hire the underground geek mafia to do damage”

Well, in my book it can’t get much lower than that.

If you’re going to attack someone, at least have the …. guts … to say it to their face.

Coward is the perfect word.

Jay – talking about on-line reputation, at least Kris had a bunch of people jump in to defend and make the accusations baseless. How about those who stab in the back and hire the underground geek mafia to do damage.

I’m still trying to recuperate from a backstabbing coward – I would have much rather been hit in the open for everyone to see.

It is truly ashame that such a good deed was turned into a negative post. Anyone associated with any non-profit organization knows how difficult it is to motivate people to take on a project as a food drive within a large neighborhood.

Unfortunately, a bad experience travels 17 times farther than a good experience. So my kudos to Kris and her family for the task that they accomplished.
