<p>I chat to Rosie from <a href="http://www.trusera.com/about">&#8220;Trusera.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>Just in time I remember that she is an American and therefore I am chatting &#39;with&#39; her rather than &#39;to&#39; her.</p>
<p>&#8220;Maybe you&#39;d like to join us at <a href="http://www.trusera.com/corp">&#8220;Trusera?&#8221;</a><br />
&#8220;That&#39;s very kind of you but no thanks.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Why not?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;All that registering and logging in and passwords.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;It&#39;s easy.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Maybe but I&#39;ve banned myself from joining anything else as I don&#39;t have enough room.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Don&#39;t you mean &#39;time&#39;?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;No, I mean room.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Room for what?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Room for the passwords.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Passwords?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Yes, I write the passwords to different sites on my left arm in permanent ink so I can&#39;t lose them.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh&#8230;.how&#8230;..unusual.  So you&#39;ve no more room on your arm?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;That&#39;s right, we&#39;re just about to move from Winter to Spring.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;What&#39;s that go to do with anything?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;No long sleeves, I&#39;m about to lose 12 inches.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Anyway, I don&#39;t think I&#39;m qualified.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Why?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;I&#39;m not particularly truthful.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;I tell lots of lies.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;It&#39;s got nothing to do with the truthfulness.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh that&#8217;s handy, I&#8217;ll be in good company then.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;No, no, no!  I mean it&#39;s all about health.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh dear me no, I don&#39;t know anything about health either, I&#39;m British.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Then come on over and <a href="http://www.trusera.com/corp">&#8220;join,&#8221;</a> you might just learn something.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Good point.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Maybe you&#39;d like to write for us too?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Who me?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Yes.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh dear me no, not on your nelly.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Nelly?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Um&#8230;&#8230; I wouldn&#39;t be able to write anything about health either.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;You can write about autism.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;What&#39;s autism got to do with health?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;It&#39;s in the DSM IV, so it&#39;s a health issue.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Good gracious, I was forgetting that for a moment, what a nit wit. It&#8217;s just that my children aren&#8217;t sick, they&#8217;re perfectly healthy, bar the odd wart.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Wart?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Plural actually, but the dermatologist is taking care of them.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;So?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Well I don&#39;t know very much about autism, I only know a little bit about two individual versions of autism.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;That&#39;s more than I know already.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;So what do you say?  One of your <a href="http://www.trusera.com/users/mom26children">&#8220;pals&#8221;</a> is already here, but that&#39;s probably because she&#39;s a lot braver than you.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;So true, so true.  Actually, I&#8217;ve seen quite a few familiar faces there.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;How about it then?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Well, I&#39;m not sure if we&#39;re on the same page.  Have you read anything I&#39;ve written?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh yeah, we checked you out.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Golly.  I don&#39;t suppose you were the one that read my whole blog the other day?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Nope.  Sorry.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;I wonder who that was? Lurkers can be so&#8230;. what&#39;s the word&#8230;&#8230;.unknown, scary, disconcerting, unsettling&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;it&#39;s like someone spying on you through the cracks in the stall or peeking through the key hole of the loo door.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Maybe you should nip along and check out the site, starting at the mental health section.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;So, do you think you could be a good sharer?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;I&#39;ll try.&#8221;</p>
<p>So now I eagerly await service of Rosie&#8217;s lawsuit against me to include charges of defamation of character and libel, together with a claim for punitive damages for pain, suffering and extreme emotional distress.</p>
<p>Anyone know a [cheap] lawyer?</p>
<p>Come along now, you be brave too <a href="http://www.trusera.com/corp">&#8220;Trusera&#8221;<br />
