Mannerisms are things like how you walk, how you engage people, the hand shake you have, your persona. They tell almost everything you need to know about a person. Great book is by Micheal Korda its called "Success" tells you all about Mannerism and how to use your own to be successful, traditional business slant but you can apply it to all walks of life.
Neither is definite in who are as a person but does tell a lot. However that all being said this is a message board and nobody is 100% who they are all the time, thats why we post here to begin with.
COMING SOON...
You have patiently waited to use that one, havent you?
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Well aside from my regular job of dealing with congressional staffers and state level departments on a day to day basis. Im also working on a 7 Round mock for the BZ, and compiling the Draft Guide. So if it wasn't for your staff I wouldnt have anything to do to entertain myself while Im between calls and meetings. This week has just been exceptionally light. Granted thats the joy of being a contract employee.
Golden Retrievers are my favorite dogs too!
That looks like my dog....who also chases her tail!
There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
The only answer I found for all this hurt
Is there ain't not answer here on earth
I had one when I was younger that did the same thing. It may be something about the breed. We had to put her down after only 5 years though. When I buy my first house Ill be getting one.That looks like my dog....who also chases her tail!
Does your dog know about the Zone?That looks like my dog....who also chases her tail!
i can't believe how riled up y'all are getting. i never realized that men could be even more *****y and whiny then women. Unless they're sick, then it's a given. But wow. Thisis getting ugly.
Let me break some stuff down for you.
1. This is a game; however, it is serious in that the person elected will have a say in any changes that are made to the way the Zone is managed and how it operates.
2. This is not a popularity contest. Zoners should vote for the person they feel will best represent their wants and needs in the staff forum.
3. There are some very good posters working on different campaigns here, and i'd hate to see any long lasting hostility or animosity develop from this election.
i'm out of Midol right now, but i'd be happy to give y'all some when i get some more. Lighten up and try to enjoy this process. It's supposed to be fun.....i think that got lost somewhere.
Sorry about your loss.What was wrong with her? My dog has already had 2 surgeries on her back legs and she's only 3 1/2 years old. She's costing us a fortune! That being said, I can't imagine my life without a dog. :dozer:
RockStar, yeah, Katie knows about BFZ, but she's not old enough to vote yet. lol
She jumped over a bench and landed weird and back spasmed to the point to where it put so much pressure on her spinal cord she was paralyzed in her back legs. We could of opted for surgery but it was like 7000 and not guaranteed to work. For the time being she would of had to have been in a doggie wheel chair, and she would of needed help to eat, drink, and go potty. That's not the kind of life a dog wants to live imo, so we put her down.Sorry about your loss.

What fun would this whole election process be if we didn't get into it?
Is the message you're sending that if the Zone goes through some hardships, you'd pull the plug on it?
I don't hate you. I actually happen to like you. I made one comment about how you looked down on a noob zoner trying to fit in. But I prefer you over jf, BMN AND Bedard. Thank you.
I'm voting for Playa, because Bedard has had his time to shine. He won Zoner of the Year, and numerous other awards. Just like Devin did the year before, and BAM years ago. I don't need Bedard shoved down my throat, like his campaign is making it out to be. "Vote for Bedard, or you're a loser noob on the zone." If you like him, fine. But my candidate for change got canned. Now I'm voting for the guy that hasn't got his ego stroked at the zone. Let's face it, both of the candidates want their egos stroked. So do their staff. They want to feel special on the zone. They both don't have radical ideas for change, and they both say around the same stuff. Neither is going to attract more zoners. The zone doesn't need more moderators. Neither will care about the position anymore after a month. It's all a big popularity contest.
I can't speak for the rest of the MBB staff, but I don't need help stroking myself, thank you very much.
Very sad! I'm so sorry!
It was an inside crack because RingOfFire is an alias of someone else. He just won't tell the public.

And thank you for proving my point. You're voting for Playa because Bedard is too popular and it's time for someone else to be popular.
