you know this incognito thing might not be so bad after all...

I WONT DO THIS, so this better not set me up for future false accusations, Ive been down that road before

anywho, I was thinking with so many screen names being very vague, no profile/avatar info. and with this world as crazy as it is, maybe it IS better that people have discreet/vague screen names and dont post their children's names, etc.

With the idea of everyone KNOWING who ABC really is, but him/her not having their screen name/info as public as it is.. (searchable by the whole internet, lurkers, etc.)

Sometimes I think we're too open with eacother with photos, etc. and wonder if it will kick us in the rear down the road..

this said after I was one of the first alumni of LIW

I know, Im bringing up all the thoughts that were discussed a few weeks ago..
it just popped back into my head

You definitely bring up a valid point, but I'm not afraid of the internet and who may be lurking behind it. I've had my share of stalkers (still do) due to this site but you know what? If they want to take the time to research every word I write, then they must have pretty booring existences because in my mind, my own life is pretty lame

But I totally see where you are coming from

It would take someone thats pretty bored to look up where all my kids are!

I live so far from LI that it doesn't really worry me.

Like I usually mention, you advertise everything about yourself every time you drive. With just a license plate, and a lot of free time, someone can find anything and everything about you. The information is out there, it's just a matter of connecting the dots.
