http://www.wral.com/golo/profile/5712439/

Happy Birthday Angela!!

Happy Birthday Angela :)

Happy Birthday wishes to you Angela! (that sure is alot of candles!)

" Guess what I saw this weekend? Escape to Witch Mountain with your BF, The Rock! Lawdy! "

LOL!!! I am tellin ya, I really was going to send him over your way to wish you a Happy Birthday BUT when I seen what he was going to wear for you, I decided to keep him here with me today ** BIG SMILE **

And your welcome! Enjoy YOUR day :)

Happy Birthday Angela !!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! You really shouldnt work on your Birthday. I hope someone brought cake.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39A2J-yo2Nc

Happy Birthday sweet thang!!! Today is my daughters birthday too, Here's to many more!!!!!!!!!!

Angela...oh fellow Leo...:) Sorry I was late in wishing you the most wonderful of birthdays....Hope you day was extra special and that many many catered to your every need....:)

That IS what is supposed to happen on our birthday's isn't it...:)

Regardless, hope yours was a treat....

(((((hugs)))))))

Sorry....couldn't resist that suggestion.

You've got to admit though...it would be highly entertaining.

:D

Happy Birthday, hope it was/is great!

I missed your birthday? wow! I have been busy. Happy Birthday!

I hope you had a great birthday Angela! Did you get some of your hubby's lasagna

BTW - the dog fighting story was perfect for the main page. Not saying I agree or disagree but it generated a lot of debate without people getting nasty. I think the warm fuzzy stories, and informative ones, are great on the front page, but I like the controversial ones as well that are kind of edgy as long as everyone can keep it civil. That to me is what makes a great blog

Glad to have you as a friend! Have you seen my latest blog, "Getting the word out"?

you changed the title of my post ! but thanks for putting it up there

Angela -

How did the teeter totter on the Golo ID information come down? Are you going to give us a breakdown of some sort?

Okay, I'm not the brightest crayon in the box, but I'm confused. I placed someone on "ignore" but I am still able to see this person's blog. I thought if someone was on "ignore" I couldn't see anything they blogged/commented on?

Angela...

Just checked again and even have a witness that I'm not losing it, lol. I can still see the person's blog. What the heck?

Hey Angela, I put up a blog today about an upcoming event that my band is playing at - it's a fundraiser for the Raleigh Youth Hockey Association. It's our first gig and a great cause - can you post it on the main page? The Carolina Hurricanes are one of the Sponsors and will be some of the players there

www.ryha.org

check it out

Angela, I noticed this imflamatory post got removed both from the blog it ws on and from your profile and I figure you did not get a chane to see it so I am reposting it for you in hopes that you can answer my inquiry as to whether this violates GOLOs TOS policy. We all should strive to make GOLO a better place.

Cajunboy.

I'm actually gonna leave your ignorant comment up here for all to see. And I would encourage everyone to go look at his comment history while you are at it. Cajunboy is destined to turn out to be one of the most vile sub-humans to even haunt GOLO. It is clear that he has been around for awhile, though I can not pin down the style of writing to any former moron.

Anyway, enjoy his bizarre thought processes for now since he is destined to be either on so many ignore lists that he becomes the insignificant mite that he is, or he will be booted shortly. Steve Crisp GOLO member since July 3, 2007 August 19, 20

golo sure has turned into a sad place these days

Angela and Cajunboy, I also would be very interested to know this. That comment is just one of many equally offensive things that this person spews. I find it curious that whilst others get removed from the site for such odious behavior this person just gets a free pass over and over and over.

I would like to know if this behavior is the benchmark that GOLO is looking for? Is it appropriate to call people names that we disagree with and be downright hateful?

I agree 110% with Crocus.

Have a wonderful weekend Angela!

Lord have mercy people! There are so many violations on here that you will never keep up. It's the same ones...all of the time! Totally out of control! Not only vile, but just evil.

Notice that VILE and EVIL use the same 4 letters?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Get a life for crying out loud!

Wanted to stop by and thank you for the job you do. I know it has to be difficult somedays. Makes me wonder if I really want to go into management. What in the world was I thinking? Have a great day.

thanks for posting my blog Angela, have a great weekend

BTW, I agree with Donna - if you booted everyone that was gulty of name calling golo would be a ghost town

the evil is winning around here (sigh)

Hi Angela - I just wanted to stop by and say hello and leave some fresh pull-ups for your Romper Room kiddies and some cheese to go with their whine. Did you know salt gets rid of night crawlers? LOL- I have sprinkled salt and holy water around the perimeter of my profile....just did the same for yours. Here's to an awesome, night crawler-free weekend - cheers! Dawn

Cajun was simply asking Angela a question. Stick around at night sometime Angela, you will see whats been going on.

Again, have a great weekend !

I did not know asking a question concerning the GOLO TOS policy would be considered whining. Angela as per your answer on my profile I did report the comment as abuse. You however did not answer my question concerning as to whether the comment I received from Mr. Crisp was a violation of the GOLO TOS policy. Apparently from some of the other comments posted on here I am not the only one who said individual has insulted. When I joined GOLO you sent me an email welcoming me to the site and indicated if I had any questions about GOLO to contact you, which is exactly what I am doing in trying to get a better understanding of the GOLO TOS policy.

I am inclined to agree with Donna. There are some evil and vile people on this board, but it just isn't the ones she would like you to believe. There are ones on here that are just a little smarter about it, if you will. Try to fly under the radar, come on at night, and try to fill the blog with innuendos. But the problem is that everyone that knows the stories know what the word games mean. They think that you do not know all the stories. I think that you are smarter than they give you credit for. I have stopped letting them ruffle my feathers, cause if they get to me it means I care what they say, and I don't, so it doesn't work on me anymore. They can have all the fun they want I could care less. I hope that you have a great weekend and don't even turn your computer on, ok?

"There are some evil and vile people on this board, but it just isn't the ones she would like you to believe."

And who would they be Raggedy? They are everywhere!

Angela...it's broken and will NEVER be fixed! Just a sad situation altogether. Used to be a great place...

Considering all the name calling I received...and all of those people are still on here? I know the abuse button has been hit on many who are still here under their original names and others who are just allowed to re-create themselves at will. Seems that the very ones who complain about others receiving special treatment are the very ones who receive it. Just my opinion. :D

"Seems that the very ones who complain about others receiving special treatment are the very ones who receive it. Just my opinion. :D"

Really Spunky? And when have I ever called you or anyone else a name?

I am confident that folks have no cause to hit abuse on my comments because I am respectful and courteous even if I think (in my mind)that folks are big windbags.

So as I was the one complaining are you saying that I am a problem because that is how your comment reads.

Crocus, did I mention you? No. And I didn't mention you because I wasn't talking about you. Are you paranoid?

Below you see a fine example of how people assume you are talking about them, when in fact you are not. They get upset for no reason.

Alright - enough of this foolishness. There have been wrongs committed by everyone - from name calling, to bait blogs to hate blogs in the wee hours of night then hypocrisy in the light of day. Frankly - EVERYONE needs to grow the hell up. This is NOT kindergarten, NONE OF US OWN this site- Jim Goodmon does and he and his employees will decide how this is run and each of us can suck it up and accept it- or leave. Quite frankly, each of us have done of fair share of stupidity - YES MYSELF INCLUDED. But seriously - this is past ridiculous. Everyone knock it off please - now!! If you don't like how things are at Golo then leave but please, EACH OF US needs to back up and shut up and GROW UP.

Miss Jo Dee Messina speaks for me on this whole stupid, ridiculous, childish load of krap when she sings MY GIVE A DAMS BUSTED http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFG9dwolo3Q

It is a new day - make it what you will.

I agree that everyone's made mistakes, myself included. I've lost my temper and said things I've regretted; such is life. However, as everyone reminds everyone else, I have the right to state an opinion, whether it's right or wrong. I have tried to remain respectful when possible. I am not however allow others to attack me or my friends without response. When you don't fight evil, you have become a doormat.

Enough of this.

Angela, have a great weekend and forget about this place.

wow fiesty......nevermind, I'll keep my opinion to myself

Angele, God bless you, you have your hands full with this place

Mojo...orders given?

Thank you, Angela. I coined it myself a few months ago - and it IS true. Each day we are given a "present", a brand new day - it is up to us what we make it through our choices, responses (or reactions), actions, etc. We have much more control than most care to admit, maybe not in what happens to us but certainly in how we handle whatever comes our way.

I hope you have a wonderful, peaceful weekend!

I was reading through things and about spit my coffee out when I read your profile. You're at the top of the popular list, and now I see why. Here I thought you were missing me, sigh, guess not. ROFL. Sorry, I know it's not funny for you, or is it?

For what it's worth, TGIF!!!

Brilliant! I have some cheese that will go well with all the whine here! Blimey... anyone have a glass?

Angela,

It is wonderful to see the membership growing more and more every day. You and your staff are to be commended again and again for the effort you put in to making GOLO what it is.

I have shared my involvement with many, to include friends, family, and most recently a large corporate entity based in Raleigh.

WRAL should be proud of your accomplishments, and when I do a google search with my own website....my contributions to GOLO also appear.

This brings me great pleasure in being able to say I am a part.

From on Leo to another.....this is indeed going to be a good year...regardless of all the obstacles, hurdles, and setbacks....

To you and yours.....have a great weekend....:):):)

/noah peeking her head in and nicely raising her hand/

Umm,ahhhh,Angela?

I like Golo,can we keep it?

Have a good one.

Angiebaby, just a quickie, Sandra's birthday, #40, is Sept 10...plz try to think of something special to honor this kind woman. I don't ask for much from you, and I am sometimes a bad-boy...do this for her. (btw, I am trying to behave!)

Jack IS behaving Angela...and Sandra is a blessing to us all!
