    It's a full moon Ricardo and I concur with your findings. Hopefully it will get better.

    Ricardo, do what I'm doing right now to get out my aggression........listening to a totally lost and forgotten kick **** live Ted Nugent bootleg at the Louisville State Fair in 1995. That MF can play and really brings a lot of energy.

    I'm starting to feel better for the moment. Pick out some music and let go brotha!!! :)

    Wang Dang Sweet..........well you know the rest of the title!

    H9

    P.s. There's a song dedicated to Janet Reno called Kiss My A**, I'll substitute any name(s) you want for hers in the song.

    H9 - good choice on the Uncle Teddy! I had Spirit of the Wild cranked up earlier this evening. Nothing like a little Spirit of Fred Bear to work off a little steam. It must of worked because several hours later I'm laid back and listening to Loreena McKennitt!

    Good call...........listening to Fred Bear again right now. I think R is just frustrated with all the annoying noobs lately. Seems to be an epidemic again and some in particular can be very annoying and somewhat disrespectful.........enough for one to scream FAAAAAAAAAAAAAK! ;)

    Yep, some of the noobs are a little challenging at the moment :( Makes you wonder what audio forum they were last booted off of.

    I've probably seen Uncle Teddy more times live than any other major act. He and his band just like to play music and are damn good at it. He has a pretty good blog and commentary on his website also. Years ago I volunteered for a week at his camp for kids. It's amazing what he can do for very troubled kids with just a heap of love and redirection of their anger and troubles.

    Very, very, very close. But it's not only the noobs. It's more like the whole forum.
    But as I said, don't mind me. It will pass, I guess.

    I think it's more cumulative as well as the general feel/direction some others (non-noobs) have taken threads in. Things have been a little unbalanced recently. Can't be more specific as it's just a general feeling/state of affairs right now.

    That's my take on it lately. A sort of overall disconnect compared to around PF and before. To me it's just another typical phase that will pass.

    P.s. Only speaking for myself.

    I am new to this forum so I guess I could be adding to it and not know it. There is a lot of change going on in the world right now and most of not for the good.

    I really like the CP forum, I had never seen Karma giveaways before which I think speaks volumes for the people who shaped CP to what it is today.

    As a noob to CP it would be great to know if I am doing something that is not quite right here, can't fix what I don't know is broken. I do try to be helpful and respectful.

    Sometimes things just can't be fixed and as men thats what we try to do.

    Anyway, this too shall pass and hey it's Friday:D and I start hanging acoustic panals tomorrow.

    Speaking for me there is no one person and certainly not every new person to the forum is the issue.

    Again it's just a general overall state and it includes non-noobs as well in my opinion.

    Well, I hope you don't mind me butting in here, and I'm sorry that you are feeling somewhat unhappy with the mood in CP at the moment, but I did enjoy your chosen method of expression. So, while I don't feel better either, I don't feel quite as bad as I did just a few moments ago. Thank you.
