On the Nature of Change
Some of you have noted that there has been a blog highjacker on some of our blogs, who has appropriated our name and likeness to create a name and icon like our own. I have made some necessary changes to this blog in the hopes that this person will disappear. Seeming like someone who is completely invested in making our lives miserable, he has taken it upon himself to untake this task.
As you see, my icon is different. (please do not mention the name of this one if you know it) and I have made other changes as well in the hopes of driving this person away from here. I have alerted blogger.com as well regarding this issue in the hopes that it will not continue. This person appears to be anti-semetic, as when you click on his name it says, yudden, not Woman on the Verge of Thinking. Please see on the post prior to this one as the person keeps making comments, and adjusting his icon to fit mine, but when you click on the name, it says, yudden, or vergeof thinking. When you click on the icon, you can see that it is not my blog.I am not going to delete these comments so you can see how this person is operating.
This person is obviously very crafty with the computer, and probably someone who does not have much love or richness in his life and feels the need to invest it all in the definition of others. I am aware that no matter how many times I change my icon, this person can get it, but at least I can demonstrate to you how invested he is. Actually, I am flattered that someone would go to such trouble and take so much time to want to be just like me. Please click on the icon to make sure it says women on the verge of thinking and has all of my posts listed, so you know it is me. I have also changed my sign in name for now as you can see.
My new image is one I have hanging inside my home: Le Violin by Man Ray. A picture of a nude woman facing backwards with the f holes from the violin sitting on her back. One of my favorites!
Thank you for your patience.

I am testing the changes that I have made to this blog. Please bear with me.
Ick. That stinks, Barbara!
Sorry Barbara, that sucks.
I understand that this person can keep getting the images I use, no matter what, but if he is so invested in trying to become me, I will turn it around and consider it an honor and keep him busy.
Very interesting, I can't even get but a few people to comment on my blog,,, much less hi jack it!! Sorry you are having this kind of trouble Barbara. Seems like some people can not just agree to disgree on some things and leave well enough alone. And if the stinker is still reading you blog.. "Hey dude, get a life"
Ok...I have finally found my true icon..The Man Ray Le Violin...I have it hanging in my home
Good luck getting rid of this creep.
Barbara, I am so sorry to hear this is happening to you. Its absolutely ridiculous that you (or anyone) should have to deal with something like this. Some very immature person has a lot of time on their hands, it seems.
I hope that this will be cleared up and stopped ASAP for you.
Damn Barbara, seems like you really have a freak with an obsession on your hands. I see that "Yudennn" has done it again. Really, dude what is up. Can you come out from under that rock and talk, that would be OK, but leave peoples blogs alone already!!!
What did BLOGGER.COM say about this,,not much they can do I am sure if he is any good with a computer.. sad.
Maybe this is sorta like when Drag Queens do Cher, Maddona and such, and you are his hero,, but damn boy, just knock it off already, I just met Barbara and would like to get to know her better and don't want some freak getting in the way of TRUE communication. Wanna talk, then talk,, use a different method though.
Let us know,,, REAL BARBARA how we can help you with this prick.
and I loved that Man Ray pic,, sorry it happened again.
This is just too weird!
Wow. This is truly weird! Whoever it is, is very, very, very talented indeed. But why is the person doing it? Do you know?
Tan Lucy and Icy,
I have absolutely no idea why this person is doing this. But he has gone to a few of our blogs, belonging to Jews, and done the same thing.
Silence is golden.

Hi Barbara,
He will get tired and move on. They always do. Trolls suck.
This person is a LOSER!!!! Geez. Well, you know the expression: imitation is the highest form of flattery. How pathetic, though. And I love the Man Ray photo, BTW. Great choice.
The problem with someone like this is that they try and sometimes succeed in instilling distrust. I mean Barbara admitted that for the most part she is trusting of what people say on blogs and take it for granted they are truthful, yet when someone undermines that, it is hard to recover sometimes, especially when making new friends almost daily thru blogging. I agree that maybe we should ignore it as much as possible, let Barbara delete the offending remarks and trust that this will pass soon. Hang in there!!
so sad!
Collectively, can we say "LOSER"!
Will read post, but wanted to copy what I left you on my site about our new icons first!(LOL)
BFC- Provocative! (LMAO)Yesterday on BB's site-Daughter & I saw you and I started rolling! You & I changed same day to an icon of shock. Love yours BIG TIME! I told NJ, I was worried cause I may appear not as conservative as I have become, but he said Fuck'em if they don't like it! (LMAO)So I am still in limbo on if I want it or not. I may take a vote! (LOL) Perhaps we should just let it all hang out..what do you think?? (LOL)
Just being out of the loop for a several days I miss everything. I love being CURRENT. This stalker sounds like the quote from Goldie Hawn in Overboard "EVERYONE WANTS TO BE ME"
Accident again w/your site! Hit wrong button and it published instead of like before and me losing my complete long comment.
Oh well. I love your icon and hopefully this jerk will go away for good. Assholes like that are so annoying, but they need their own blog to get their own attention.
BTW, perfect icon.......I absolutely love it!! Take care...hopefully he is gone for good.
Hi Barbara!
Just took time out of work to drop in and see how you`re doing....and it appears you have problems with a wierdo.
Haven`t read through all of your blog to catch up, but managed to get a small idea of what`s happening.
Bit wierd.
Although I have to say, I love your new Man Ray icon! It has always been one of my favourites!
Will be back blogging soon, just need to get work done!!
Will email soon!!
I told you the troll would be gone Friday at sundown. It is really quite a statement that what people believe and the manner in which they act out those values are so different. It constitutes true hyprocrocity, in my opinion.
At least he helped me find my new icon, so something good came out of it all, actually.
Welcome back, Zepellina! Good to see you. Yes, I absolutely adore this Man Ray and have a poster/lithograph (not sure which) framed hanging in my bedroom for years now!
Be well.
