  I have endorsed nothing but a primary element in self empowerment and a
first step in eliminating perceptions of victimhood within ones personal
reality construct. There is no need for anyone to be victimized by their
own feelings. Attempting to control what 'cannot be controlled' [ie what
people say] is a total self defeating waste of emotional and physical
energy when the power is always at hand to do otherwise and do it effectively.
 Everyone chooses what they take seriously and everyone chooses differently.
I have not dismissed anyones feelings, only pointed out whos they were,
where they came from [inside] and what can be done with them.

 People need to learn to see themselves in their own light rather than
going around trying to change everyone elses. [something that 'can't' be done]
 People will say what they want to, but I always choose how I hear it. I
can only control my own ears...not your mouth.
 If people knew this simple fact, mob rule and emotional manipulation would
be a thing of the past, but alas, mnay folks don't even own themselves and
believe every lie that comes down the pike.
 No offense taken, no defense needed...leaves time and energy to do what
'can' be done to improve ones own lot and self image.  If it's a lie, and
you know the truth, the lie is irrelevant. See?
 People who know you, also know the truth.

Re: CS>Fw: crash landing

Hi  Gladys,

I can accept  your irritation with THAT poster, but I do not accept your
declaration regarding the proper place for "levity" being somewhere
other than the Silver List. Humor, properly used, can do wonders for
those exposed to it - it has even  been credited with a cancer cure.

If you will go tohttp://www.silverlist.org/  and check the List Rules,
you will find,in part, the following:

A modest amount of humor, chit-chat, friendly banter and
encouragement is condoned, and is indeed important for the
well-being of the list.

Here is another airline joke.

I joined the Silver List because I enjoy being part of
a group of enlightened individuals exchanging discourse
with the ultimate goal of improving our health and
well being.  If I wish to partake in levity I watch the
comedy channel.   I therefore feel this is not the proper
   venue for jokes.

RE: CS>Fw: crash landing

[John Reeder]

Dear Gladys,

Of course, you are right, although I wouldn't even describe the
original post as a joke. I treat such correspondence with the
same method that I use for the porn that occasionally appears in
my email, an immediate DELETE.

The purpose of this list is the discussion of colloidal silver, not
the dissemination of so-called jokes, that aren't jokes, that place
on public display the prejudices and ignorance of the poster.

Maybe, no harm was meant, but as my wife (a blonde that hates
blond jokes) points out to me, many attempts at humor fall short.
True humor never hurts or harms any other human being.

  In addition I find this particular joke offensive, as it
  suggests that Black women are ignorant.  I am a Black
  woman and as you can see I am quite articulate and
  can put at least three or four words together that make
  sense.

  That joke was blatantly racist and not at all funny.  If
  you thought it was funny and harmless, be careful, your
  hood is showing.   Take your vicious little views masked
  as jokes to one of the hate sites where they belong.

  This site is about health and well-being, if you can't

  enough to participate.

  P.S.  I have lived with ignorant racism all of my life, first
  as a Black person, then as a Black woman.  I do not
  apologize for this scathing discourse as I am extremely
  insulted.  I did not join the Silver List to hear "Darkie

She replied "I heard that when the come to recover the passengers that

She kept walking and came to a black lady taking all of her clothes off.

I cannot ignore your casual dismissal, Ken, of the feelings of a person who
was
offended by the original posting. Now I'm offended as well.

There's nowhere in my manual for adulthood that says I have to accept the

Maybe you want to go out and tell that joke to the neighborhood kids - after

it's only a joke, right?

In S. Dakota where blondes predominate the population, blonde jokes are all the rage and I [a blonde] enjoy them too. Since when is humor true and accurate?
Taking offense to what is obviously not true indicates a high level of insecurity.
Expecting the entire world to cater to that insecurity is a certain recipe for frustration.
OK, Have fun with that. You certainly will succeed. [in finding frustration]
