I've had enough
 
I've been diligent about staying out of conversations that are inappropriate and childish. Only problem is.... Most of the threads have become so polluted, there just isn't any reasonable conversation to engage in any more.

I'm going to stay logged in and lurk from time to time but won't be posting until things change.

Am really sorry. I really enjoyed this place in the past.

Can't say I blame you Barbara. :(

Me too. The Leftys just want to harass the Rightys.

I'm going to take a break too.

I hold the fort and please, barbara, Pat, other, do the same. This forum will for sure recover but it will lose it's precious quality if the best in our team leave the show.

I agree.

BlueStreak 06-05-2014 07:47 AM

I never surrender. But, that's me, I'm crazy that way.

Sorry to see anyone bow out. Well, not really. But I do hope those who have bowed out this time don't stay out long.

I'm back on a conditional basis, mostly to watch -5's mourning the loss of his his fellow traveler.

That's a step in the right direction, although IMO it was more of a case of "Suicide by Cop" than it was a banning.

I wasn't going to be as active for awhile anyway as I am in the process of moving from Central Florida to South Alabama, and there are a million and ones things involved in that.

Guys, get used to the idea that the AK rule applies here now - no public discussion of moderation decisions. Period.

Zeke 06-05-2014 09:46 AM

I took 4-5 days off.

It was necessary.

donquixote99 06-05-2014 10:23 AM

Welcome back. :)

MrPots 06-05-2014 10:25 AM

I apologize if I've contributed to your decision Barbara. I'll tone it down.

I'm of the opinion that if the good guys give up, the bad guys win.

piece-itpete 06-06-2014 12:36 PM

I'm very busy and don't know exactly what's happened, but I hope folks will hang in there or at least stop back soon.

Extremely stormy weather here recently, but now things calm down a bit and the sun is partly shining again.

piece-itpete 06-06-2014 12:41 PM

Good. Lets have a bonfire and some beer :D

Pete

JJIII 06-06-2014 12:47 PM

I'll watch the fire and drink some beer but I absolutely refuse to eat any S'mores!:p

HarmanKardon 06-06-2014 12:50 PM

Now we just need somebody playing some nice folk songs on his guitar...and some more beer...

JJIII 06-06-2014 12:54 PM

I'm pretty sure Bob plays guitar, maybe he'll come along.:)

Better get your terms straight. You're moving to "LA" - Lower Alabama.
Be sure to tell all your new neighbors your political stance right away, they respect folks who speak their mind.

Dude, I am moving from Polk County Florida.

You may not be aware of it but up there, but Polk County Florida is a white trash redneck hellhole.

I've already met my new neighbors in Mobile on both sides and across the street, and quite frankly, even though they may very well be Republicans, they are a big step up from the ones I have here.

Mobile is not the same as farther north in Alabama.

Mobile is Jimmy Buffet Country.

Mobile, Alabama is a sister city of Havana, Cuba and has a plurality of African Americans in it's demographics. Sounds like a nice city to live in Tom.

Mobile has Mardi Gras too.

It may not be as big as it is in New Orleans, but Mobile was first.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mardi_G...obile,_Alabama

Quote:

Mardi Gras in Mobile is the annual Carnival celebration in Mobile, Alabama. It is the oldest annual Carnival celebration in the United States, having started in 1703. This was fifteen years before New Orleans was founded, although today their celebrations are much more widely known. From Mobile being the first capital of French Louisiana (1702), the festival began as a French Catholic tradition. Mardi Gras in Mobile has now evolved into a mainstream multi-week celebration across the spectrum of cultures in Mobile, becoming school holidays for the final Monday and Tuesday (some include Wednesday),regardless of religious affiliation.

So is Mobile Mardi Gras done in French accented by Spanish filtered thru Cuban dialect?

It sure as hell is, not worth the trouble of logging in anymore.

HarmanKardon 06-20-2014 07:23 AM

I see was you are saying, the ridiculous exasperating border jumper kids thread by the usual suspects exists as just another flimsy stretch to discredit the POTUS and the present admin.
