Is anyone here still in touch with JimmyJazz?

I'd like to get a message to her. I'm more than happy to go via a third party if she's not happy to share her email address. She helped me out with something and I'd like to thank her now it's coming right.

29. Hey, merh? Could you hook me up? I met her & I loved her.

I just want to say "hey" to her because we were marching buds all weekend long in DC. I miss her terribly. She was KIND above all else, and she was funny as hell. I was flattered for making her laugh.

Would you do that?:hi:

I have been buried up to my ears in building my portfolio in my spare time-

Whatever medium, they are beautiful. You are not only fun and loving, you are extremely talented.

You haven't been remiss, you have been living and there isn't a darned thing wrong with that. To life, love & friendships! :toast:

42. Oh, and get this- at the DC march, JJ and meganmonkey & I

were together, and JJ took MY CAMERA and took a great picture of meganmonkey showing some leg to the guards. I'm getting it developed (no time but now I HAVE to). There's the WH behind her, snipers on the roof, her grinning, the guards looking sour, but one cop starting to grin. I can't WAIT to see it & show it to them.

You always think that everything should be fair for everyone, and that people shouldn't take sides or hold grudges (except against the Republicans).

You're a voice of reason, and a peach.

54. It's not a lynch mob

The sheer slanderous crap, the passive-aggressive inside-joke gossip threads, the PM gossip... that is where the real mob mentality kicks in. There is nothing wrong with trying to put a stop to the juvenile and petty behavior.

There IS a clique on DU, of the worst sort. And they made things inhospitable for JJ.

We're reacting to those very same things you listed that have been done/were done to JJ. If someone was doing that to someone you cared about, would you just sit back and take it?

For the record, I don't PM anyone about this. Everything I ever say about anyone is always right here in the open.

you know me from helping another friend of ours in their time of need.

I can assure you, the ones responsible for the hate and the lies are not the ones posting of their love of JJ here or their resentment for the hate and lies that forced her and another to leave.

I have always been honest with you and you and I both have seen some really horrible folks that were responsible for the breaking of a friends heart, the pain that made it difficult for him to fight his disease. I can assure you that I am not spreading the hate and the lies, I am not bullying and threatening, I am defending the folks I love, just as I did Andy.

and that happens to all grownups at one time or another, even after 5 long months. and it should be kept between those two people, unless it's the sniffas and bi-baby, in which case it should be kept between the three of them. :rofl:
this is completely not our business, or remotely worth squabbling about.

77. You made it your business by joining in a thread and accusing

others of the sins that have been committed by those that complain about them the most.

You came in here to accuse friends of a former poster, to ridicule them and to accuse me of pmail hate. I don't do what those you know accuse others of doing. I am out front, I have tried to plead with them all to stop, yet they continue and they made you part of the game.

You know me from our previous fights against hate and hurt, you know that I stand up for people I love and I stand up against lies and smear campaigns.

That is what I am doing - what the hell are you doing?
