Why Silent?
Because telling someone who did not ask for your forgiveness that they are forgiven is passive-aggressive as shit. –Greg Bulmash
“Not forgiving someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.” Forgiveness is about you, not them. That’s why it’s powerful to forgive your long-dead parents.
Note: You may have a feeling of recognition at the name Greg Bulmash. He’s an early online writer who created the April 1997 McDonald’s Job Application humor piece that someone started forwarding around the Internet as real — and it went viral. Clearly, he’s still an insightful online writer! And, of course, he’s an old friend of mine. (Click photo to see larger.)

Randy Cassingham is best known as the creator of This is True®, the oldest entertainment feature on the Internet: it has been running weekly by email subscription since early 1994. It is social commentary using weird news as its vehicle so it’s fun to read. Click here for the site — basic subscriptions are free.
Comments? Sorry: Facebook retired their commenting system (they didn’t even bother to alert me). Just as well, I suppose, but sadly there is no way to recover the many hundreds of comments made on this site. Lesson learned: never rely on someone else’s site for prime functions, especially “social media”!
Since this site is mostly retired now (maximum of one new post per month), I did decide that since all comments are now gone that I would not attempt to install any new commenting system. -rc
