Do You Delete Bottles?


Do you delete bottles? If so which types and why? If not, why not?
---
When I first started playing this I got a bottle in a different language and just thought it was a bottle where someone was typing jibberish.   It was until a few bottles later I realised that it was a different language.  Now I never delete bottles because I feel like someone else in the world might like it.
---
Never gotten my own bottle or one I responded to back, must be one heck of a big ocean!
---
I've deleted a couple of bottles that were completely negative toward people or obscene before the censoring.  Otherwise, I just send on even if I disagree with the message.
---
I haven't deleted any yet. I have sent several on without adding a message because I just don't know what to say!
---
I DELETE NASTY ONES.
---
I've only deleted a few.  One becaues it was nothing but jibberish (not a foreign language) and a couple others because they were just hateful.  The hatefull ones are pretty rare though.
---
I'm pretty sure the first ammendment is freedome of speach... I say we keep it that way...even if "they are wrong and we know it all"
---
Toss out the bible quoters. Can find my own preacher.
---
I toss out the ones that spread hate about other people's religions.  The jews the muslims and the christians aren't perfect, but we don't need to discuss that here.
---
I rarely delete a bottle, sometimes just toss it back. First Amendment of not, I don't feel that destructive, vilifying speech needs to be forwarded. Why would I want to encourage someone else to hate?
---
The hateful ones should not be passed on, this is supposed to be FUN. Lets keep it that way!
---
i do not delete bottles.  i don't feel like it's my place to do so.
---
Ocassionally, depends on what's being said, but I don't do it to be spiteful
---
I just found this site, so I don't know. I can't see deleting bottles though, I mean even if the original message is gibberish or crap, you could always add something good to it. And I don't believe in censorship.
---
If I don't find it interesting, most of the time I delete it.
---
I don't delete bottles. This is a place where you can send your deepest thoughts and feelings out to the unknown.
If I don't agree, find offensive, or otherwise have nothing to add to a message I just toss it back. Somebody out there may enjoy reading it
---
I just start playing so I havent had the chance to delete anything...although I would probably delete negative ones.
---
I delete really obscene nasty ones, and ones where drongos think it's funny to write a message using wingdings. They just clog up the ocean.

Almost 2 months later - so I'm guessing you've still got a couple of months left yet?  Hope everything's going well with the pregnancy.
On another note, does the person above really think Belgium's at the middle of the earth?  huh?!

Greetings from Rotterdam.
---
I'm sure your baby is out by now! I had a little one myself last November. All the best to you and your little one!
---
Your baby I'm sure has been delivered.  Just think, during your whole pregnancy I was undergoing infertility treatments, my life stands still as yours is blossoming.  Congratulations.  I hope it happens to me soon.
---
Life NEVER stands still.  Life IS change.

Congratulations to those that have their little miracles by now. And to the lady undergoing fertility tx I've said a prayer that you will soon have your miracle as well.

Talking to Strangers

Bottle from March 25

what is your opinion about oceangram?
which is more interesting-chatting or oceangram?
---
I like both  both can be very entertaining!  but the interaction of chatting is nice when you really want to talk to someone! then when you just want to be alone oceangram can bring a smile to your face!
---
they are both cool because with oceangram you dont know who the person is
---
Chatting is nice because it's instant results but oceangram is nice because it gives it more mystery and makes me more interested anyway
---
oceangram because it makes me smile, chatting can get boring
---
Oceangram is for the hopeless romantic like myself! Jesus is the answer for the world today! 1-6-07
---
You never know what you will get in your bottle, sometimes a joke, a story to add on to, a list of fabulous places traveled, words of wisdom and sometimes ignorant comments, but all in all I enjoy it
---
I find the anonymity of Oceangram interesting but I also find it frustrating that I can't see any responses to my posts :-S
---
Why can't you see responses to your post?  Try reading the instructions (How to use Oceangram).  You can see your message anytime you want to see it.  I hate chat rooms, because of the same stupid people that post here, but to the person who finds "chatting" to be boring, I'd have to say that is caused by the boring people who don't know how to keep a conversation running, have poor communication skills, etc.  And as far as not "knowing" who people are on Oceangram, but "knowing" who they are in a chat room - - - you've got to be kidding.  You don't "know" anyone in a chat room.  My name is Fred, I'm 18-years-old, and I love archery and golf, and I live in El Paso, Texas.  Now, do you know me?

Lemon Grove was a great place when they still grew lemons there.  But that was decades ago.

That hs got to be the world's most unscientific and unintellectual position to take on God.  To deny the existence of a knowable God, simply because YOU don't know Him, is to suggest that there can be no reality beyond the range of your own personal discovery.  The vast majority of known reality has never entered your mind, such as the realm of God which is unknown to you.  If you're looking for scientific proof, the Second Law of Thermodynamics proves there is a God, since it contradicts the First Law of Thermodynamics, but you don't know anything about that, either, do you?  The being who created the material universe would be definition be separate from that universe; thus, it would defy the attempts of man to discover Him by natural scientific methods.  Yet, He he has left sufficient evidence of His genius in the intricately-designed cosmos, which any unprejudiced person can see. Consider the order of the universe, or the eye, or the human brain.  Design in nature proves the existence of a Designer/Creator.  Children can write what they wish.  They can write that they don't believe the sun will rise in the East and set in the West tomorrow, but they only prove another one of the designs in nature.  Oswald - Oregon - USA - April 15, 2010 -

Political Oceangram

An Obama Oceangram - November 7, 2008

OBAMA RULES!!! PRESIDENT OBAMA, BABY!!!
---
NOWAY...........................
---
Obama will lead to the death of the USA.
---
So true....Obama is so wrong for the
U.S.A.
---
Obama is actually a Lizard from the planet Zargon 9, David Icke told me so it must be true...
---
Nobody likes politicians ;)
---
Change is good and he will be apositive role model for many young black American men.
---
This is the second time I've gotten this bottle... how creepy!
---
America having a black president would be cool, but obama aint black, he is the new breed of wolf in sheeps clothing. a black man with white elitist attitudes and ambitions. black white red or green he is one of them and will never represent his creed.
---
Most of the rest of the world longs to see a Democrat in charge for a change. Obama would probably be great for America after the facist, right wing Dubya. And he would definitely be the best choice to make for a safer planet.

Remember Your Mother Today


Blue Sky, originally uploaded by serakatie.


Oceangram found by Sera


Dear Mom.
Now it's almost 8 months since you died. I am still heartbroken and I guess that is the way I am going to be for the rest of my life. I am getting along but everyday I miss you and wish you were near me. I came home from work today thinking about calling you and telling what my day was like..but then remembered again God I wish you were alive. I Love you mom and I feel so empty without you..((HUGs)) xoxo
your daughter lcm
---
((((())))))))
---
mums are the most special ppl in the world .. I love my mum to bits .. she is my best friend .. my kids special friend .. to all who meet her, love her. Treasure your mum while she is with you ..
---
im sorry
---
Hello-
It is 2 years today that my Mom died and I still pick up the phone to call her. Keep her memories and know she is watching over you and loves you very much.
---
SPARTAAAA!!!!!
---
Sorry from Sweden
---
I lost my MOM 29 years ago.. I still miss her ... and you always will. The bond between a Mother and
Daughter is special .. On my web site I have a tribute to my MOM. My best to you...You must remember that your MOM is in a special place...be strong.....make her proud of your accomplishments.
---
прикольно но непонятно
---
Treasure that relationship. Talk to her through prayer and dreams.
---
i wish i could tell my mom that i love her, but everytime i think of doing it, the words won't come out. my family is pretty messed up, but i really hope she knows that i love her... i'm very sorry for your lost.
---
im really sorry-sabrina
---
iiim very sorry for you, adn im sorri taht i carnt wrte abut how i feel for u, just im only starting 2 learn englsih
---
I think the comment above should say, "I love to BS."
Sorry for the pain of the loss of your mom. Share the love you have with a senior or a child that needs it.
---
Aww thats so sad, but i guess everyone has to go through it at some point
---
another (((((((()))))))))
---
{{{{HUG}}}} from me too. I lost my mum and dad in 1997. I do think it gets easier to live with. But 8 months is no time at all. Take as long as you need, but the time comes when you do stop forgetting that they've gone. When it feels normal that they're not there, it does hurt a lot less. Sometimes it still hurts, but mostly I'm ok now. I'm sure you will be too. Warm wishes.

Professor Martin's Predictions: A Cooperative Story

Professor Martin Tarr stood at the front of the auditorium addressing
a crowd of over 1000 people. "The data does not lie," he said, "When
you look at the linear progression on these charts, it becomes
obvious that within 10 years, we will all...
---
be living off of mushrooms. The ice age will return and we will all
be living in the bottom of the ocean eating specially treated
mushrooms!

Mushrooms

---
Our poop will float to the top and will eventually melt the ice and
then we will again....
---
be going North in the winter months to stay warm. Michigan will
become the # 1 state for snowbirds.
---
"Bullshit," said a voice from the audience.
---
"Yeah! What a load of crap" comes another cry from the audience
---
...Mr. Tarr becomes very angry about such statements.
"I'm right, believe me. Good old Europe may be the first country, who
has nothing than ice."
---
"What about global warming?!" comes a shout from the crowd.
---
Mr. Tarr states: "Global warming is bullshit. Al Gore is an idiot.
President Bush is the best president ever."
---
"But didn't Bush kill all the dinosaurs?" asked someone. "Isn't he
also the cause of crotch itchiness and currently growing carbon
dioxide levels?"
---
Commercial break...he,he
---
"Beer and pretzels, anyone/"
On with the show>>>>>



---
Hold on, I gotta pee first.
---
To get back to the story:

Proffesor Tarr decided to get his class back on track. "I'm sorry
about my previous statement, the increasing CO2 levels, acid rain and
dependence on oil and other limited resources has deteriorated my
brain tissue that I tend to say ridiculous things. What I really
wanted this conversation to be about is that Rhode Island, neither
Road nor Island...discuss."
---
In the meantime, I will visit the facilities down the hall.

Several minutes later...

Taking up where we left off, let us approach the data from a
different perspective. With a gentle whirrr, a large marker board
dropped from the ceiling. It was covered from top to bottom with
complicated and nearly indecipherable equations. Professor Tarr
continued, "If you follow the probability curve, cube it and divide
by 2, you see something disturbing and not a little discombobulating.
I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but
---
in another year the sky will no longer be blue. It will be lime
green".

"No way!", one of the students yelled.

"You're lying!", yelled another.

Professor Tarr stared at his students for a long while. Then he
shouted, "you're right. I'm just kiddin'. The sky isn't going to turn
green. But...

Cooperative Story a'la Oceangram: Is this the Best One Yet?

This story was written, as all Oceangrams are, by many different contributing Oceangrammers. The "bottle" containing the story was found on a virtual beach by Kayla Shay, and posted in theOceangram Stories Group.

See if you think it's the best cooperative story Oceangram you have read.

Oceangram Stories




Once upon a time there was:

---
a little boy standing on the beach...
---








He watched as the dolphins play, away off in the
distance, and wished he could be swimming among them.
---



Then all of a sudden, he saw this bottle come floating
by. He said look, it has a message inside
---
He picked up the bottle, pulled out the cork, took the
paper out and unrolled it. The message read:
















Just then out of the
corner of his eye, the boy saw something mesmerising.
unbelievably it was a...
mermaid. Always thought to be fiction...there she
was, her tail glistening in the water as she jumped up
and dove in the water. Then....
---
The child wished to become a merman and "POOF" the
genie in the bottle made it happen. The child so
happily jumped in the water and swam after the
mermaid. Then...
---
----
He realised that he no longer had his two legs, that
they had been replaced by a single tail. In his panic
he....
---
swam in frantic circles trying to figure out what to
do....
---
eat for lunch as all this swimming was making him
hungry. So he decided........
---
..to go to his favorite burger stand on the beach..
but wait.. he couldn't walk.. Was he never to taste
another juicy burger?? Was this what he wanted??
Would he ever see his family again??
---
Then suddenly he remembered the mermaids and his
hunger changed into something else...
CUF
---
juicy mermaids he thought and swam out to find them.
the mermaids will cook me a feed sure as eggs he
thought. just when he had almost reached the
mermaids....
---
a fishing vessel spread its large net and he was
caught along with other


---
merpeople! No no, they all cried. Except it turns
out that they spoke merspeach, so it came out sounding
a bit like a bunch of seals. The fishermen said - OH
NO, NOT MERMAIDS AGAIN!
---

So that their haul wasn't a complete waste, they took
all the mermaids and merman to the circus in town,
where ...
---
they were sold to the circus to be put on display. But
to their amazement,
---
the circus wasn't doing very well and soon closed.
Luckily the kindly owner....
---
was filthy rich so he built an aquarium for all the
merpeople. they weren't very happy put on display like
that, so they...
---
decided to do something about it. One night when the
circus owner was putting food in the aquarium they
swam up and asked him if they could please go free.
The man saw the error of his ways and decided that
even though they were very beautiful merpeople, and
looked great in an aquarium, they would be much
happier back in the ocean. No sooner as the man had
agreed on this, a...
---
bullet hit him in the back and he died instantly. The
wealthy dead mans servants decided to cash in on the
unusual inhabitants of the pool and put them all in a
hot tub and transported them to another circus where
they were put on show and were very unhappy so they
all killed themselvs.
The end
---
one was the little boy though, and just before he died
he called out his wish for them all to be
reincarnated, and as there was still a wish
remaining...
---
he brought all the other merpersons back and they all
were transfered to regular people. The realized they
had a great sound so became the new group, Water
people. after the 1st 12 # 1 hits....
---
their lives fell into the inevitable downward spiral
of booze, drugs, and fast women. Their spirit.......
---
Their spirits suffered terribly as they forgot who
they were and where they had come from while under the
haze of a drug-induced fog. But the human spirit, in
some, cannot be extinguished that easily. The boy
always lived inside the grown merman, and fought to
remind him of the day he stood on the seashore
watching the dolphins play...
---


and he wondered "what happened to my mother?" After
his stint on stage that night he left the theater and
headed home to the last place he remembered his mother
living. When he arrived he saw.............
---
a ramshackle cottage sitting in a yard of overgrown
grass and weeds. Yet there was a dim light...
