    My sons are going food shopping tonight while I'm at work.

    I told them to be sure to pick up a block of Swiss cheese.

    I like Swiss cheese.

    A lot.

    I hope they don't forget.

    Maybe I should call them from work to remind them ?

    I think I will.





    Well, that's about all the news from the "Excitement Desk" here at the Ponderosa.

    Anyhow, for my part......I'll apologize for how people have taken my humor. I won't apologize for what I said, but I'll apologize for how it was taken.

    Have we all really become this politically correct? Should we not be allowed to play with others due to worry they may become offended? Isn't a certain amount of people skills (not to mention balls) required to post on a public forum?

    I am offended that you would use the term "balls". I only have one, and it makes me less able to handle things. Matter of fact, I get a little testie.
    Please have it removed!

    Did someone mention moldy cheese and cheap merlot? :D

    Since I don't do politics....never have, never will.....it is not I that has become politically correct.

    Don't believe Troy was either. He was just being a gentleman, which is more than I can say for some.

    "I love you.
    You love me.
    We're best friends like friends should be.
    With a great big hug
    and a kiss from me to you,
    won't you say you love me too?"

    Troy, I appreciate the general apology... I hope that, although you did not mention my name, that I am included in this. I am going to be honest and say that I felt angry too, I think, although I tried to keep it private, and those of you that know what happened in PM is not what this place is all about. It's about, like you said, friendship over this passion of audio, and things did need to be "set right" by this kind of gesture. Silverti did deserve the apology, and I am glad he got it. I have a thick skin, but not all of us have that... jokes become insults very easily for some, and that isn't a fault of theirs, so it should be understood and dealt with in an honorable way. I hope that some of the drama goes away and we can get back to complaining about digital vs. analog, tubes v. SS, and planars vs. enclosed drivers. That drama is way more fun than being accused of stealing or whatever.

    Troy, you and I will probably never agree on some things, and I have said this to someone else, but I want you to know that I understand that, and I want those things to stay differences in opinion, and not lines in the sand. When we begin to take sides, it splits our club here apart, and that is not what we are about. I don't think that is what you are about either.

    I want this to result in us shaking hands, figuratively speaking, for I think you, troy, and I need to let our problems with each other go, and to get back to what we do here best. I stuck around here for a reason... I could have easily said screw it and left, but I stayed because I thought that, in the end, this place brings together people from all kinds of backgrounds, young, old, novice, expert, rich, and poor and gives us a way to discuss our hobby on an equal ground.

    There is no need to hang up our senses of humor to do this, just be aware and have some discretion... that's all. I don't want this place to become bland either, you know... just don't forget how many different people are here and where they come from.

    I'd rather you keep the attitude here in Club Polk anyway... because if a million DPRK troops move down because you had to turn your sense of humor elsewhere, there is a chance I might feel a little guilty... hehe so for the sake of world peace, man, are we cool?

    I feel pretty,
    Oh, so pretty,
    I feel pretty and witty and bright!
    And I pity
    Any girl who isn't me tonight.

    I feel charming,
    Oh, so charming
    It's alarming how charming I feel!
    And so pretty
    That I hardly can believe I'm real.

    See the pretty girl in that mirror there:
    Who can that attractive girl be?
    Such a pretty face,
    Such a pretty dress,
    Such a pretty smile,
    Such a pretty me!

    I feel stunning
    And entrancing,
    Feel like running and dancing for joy,
    For I'm loved
    By a pretty wonderful boy!

    Smootches,
    Russy

    Here's another one from a hero of mine as a child:

    It's such a good feeling to know you're alive.
    It's such a happy feeling: You're growing inside.
    And when you wake up ready to say,
    "I think I'll make a snappy new day."
    It's such a good feeling, a very good feeling,
    The feeling you know that we're friends.

    All this "I'm OK...You're OK" BS is making me sick. If I want this sort of stuff, I'll go watch Oprah or Dr. Phil.

    Dr. Phil, False advertising.

    ----

    This I'm ok we're ok **** is going to keep this drama from happening too often. All things in moderation... if it happened everyday it would get old... aren't some of you guys tired of popcorn?

    Every good drama must come to an end... it's better to leave the audience still wanting. I am willing to bet everything that this won't be the last sparring match here... so don't get your knickers in a bunch, have patience.

    Where are zee new smilies? I am in advanced and they are the same ones.
