What do you want for me? Would you like my Social Security number so
you can do a full background check on me? Like I said - I was venting
about the group to a co-worker of mine. We work for a university, and
through our VPN network, we all share the same IP address. Most of my
posts occurred while I was at home - that's the IP address that starts
with the 71. The other one is from our office in Philadelphia. She,
on her own accord, decided to post a comment on the message board. I
found the Prawn recipe while I was at work. Your tax dollars have
nothing to do with it since it's a private institution. Yeah, maybe
her comment was a bit cheesy but it was all her own and I'm pretty
sure her intent was simply to stick up for me. All of you who insist
on harrassing me need to get a life and find something better to do
with your time. If you don't have anything positive to say to me,
then leave me alone. I'm not going to let you push me out of this
group. You're acting like some high school click that decided to pick
on the new girl. Back off!
