A "REPUTATION" is what you have regardless.

In the early days of the internet - whoa, people were mad about them. I suppose people who are new online are nuts about it too.

But the real secret (after all these many years) to a way cool rep is to not be concerned about it at all.

If you think about it - what do you really think about people you know in daily life who do nothing it seems like, except to chase people to make other folk think they are somebody cool? Turns out to be hollow most of the time, don't it?

SO the best recipe of all seems like "UNCONCERN".

And I'll tell ya my cut on having a whole truckload of people thinking you someone special - Han Solo from STAR WARS had it right the first time when he made a comment about Responsibility:


"IT'S OVER RATED"

THAT is "BLEU MAX" worthy

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...-blue-max.html


You know - when you are doing something that you really didn't have to do - it was someone elses thing.

It puts you at some little amount of risk - maybe.

But you did it because it seemed like it would be sorta fun, and for the experience

And you rilly didn't care about the price or anything...


THAT'S A BLUE MAX thing...

It's something you wanted to do because your heart said YEAH!

Rumor has it that when you get to 20,000 rep points, you can trade them in for a ride on a donkey with a midget stripper (and a cupcake).

Or, more succintly put: 20,000 rep points and a dollar still won't buy you a coffee at Starbucks. They're worth exactly how much you pay for them. Just sayin'
