Dimeman's New Years Resolution...
DIMEMAN

After corresponding with Drunner and reading his post and the PM I got from him, which was the same as the post, I decided to post this New Years Resolution.
As of today I will no longer make any negative reply's to ANY post. I may not agree or not understand, but never negative!
So, everyone keep on collecting whatever you like weather it is coins or slabs or coin boards or whatever. I'm sure that while I don't understand the slab thing.........that most of you don't understand my dime thing. And that's what it is all about. If we all went after the same thing it would be boring and expensive wouldn't it.
I really do enjoy these boards and have met some good friends. And probably made some enemy's, which I hope can be fixed.
So Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you and if you make it to the FUN show look me up.

There have been plenty of times in the past I "didn't understand" somebody's collecting thing ... but I always looked at it as an opportunity to learn about a new thing. On more than one occasion, I had become a convert! The "weirder" our collecting interests, the more we collectively learn.

Realone - I will still give an opinion when you ask for it.

It is a hallmark of a disciplined mind, as well.

Well, that's a damn stupid resolution.
Sorry, pal. Just kidding.
I think negative has its place so long as you aren't negative about individuals who believe they are doing the right thing. Negative
is fine for ideas and practices. It's OK for politicians.
It's a fine line and even when it comes to insulting people I believe in live and let live.
Merry Christmas.
And happy new year...
I've been tempted a couple of times to resort to the negative- and I'm sure if my posts were screened looking for any hints or signs of such an example may be located, but overall
it's refreshing and I tip my cap to you Dimeman for your resolute determination.
Even RickO couldn't get me to lash out!
Mine is to post more pictures, what do you think? Good huh? Want me to image some of your coins for free, PM me for my addy so you can send them, your buddy TN.
Happy Holidays........

Whew...you had me worried there for a minute : ) Thought you'd been in at the xmas spirit a litte early Merry Christmas Dimeman
Unless his new years resolution is to see the blatantly obvious, I see no reply coming!

Thats like saying all the Avg NBA team needs to become a contender is a couple of 7 footers that have a jump shot
No lead is safe enough for the Romo factor........ie the Detroit game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

C'mon, at least give Eli some credit. That guy is the real deal.
If Romo hits the wide open Austin Eli never gets the ball back....game over!
Yes, Eli is very good, but Romo blew that game.

I've found your posts to be negative and called you out on it. I applaud you for this thread and I, for one, will give you some slack if you occasionally fall back. Good for you.
We are all happier when we are positive. I too will focus on being more positive.
Merry Christmas,

You do not always have to be positive!
Nothing wrong with admitting that something doesn't work for you or that you do not agree with something.
On the other hand, you can offer gentle constructive commentary as needed.
Otherwise we will think you agree with everyone and everything. LOL.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL.
HEALTH, HAPPINESS AND LOVE TO ALL.

Just kidding, I applaud you for this, I've never seen this happen on a public forum. Way to go Dimeman and everyone else who foster a good environment like this.
