Hi C2,

Your observations about Maine are nice, but unnecessary in a bloated thread. Why not use the PM function for them?


I don't agree with your approach. It's my belief that brief forays into personal experiences humanize this thread and promote good will among the participants. I think we get into trouble when we start regarding one another as post-bots (or worse)...

Best regards,

What have you done Carranza

While we were all religiously waiting
For the High Priest
To strike us with the Sentence
That comet tearing through our Universe

What have you done Carranza

For you stole the perfect Virgin
On her very first Birthday
And for this sin you'll have to pay
As on the sacred Altar
Now you'll forever lay

John, though some of us don't say so, we agree. Unlike you, we don't say it.

Either you've had a bad day or I've done something to you that I'm quite unaware of. Let me repeat the thought I had in mind. Many of us, and I definitely include myself in this observation, post much the same thing to one another. I've come to the conclusion some of us can complete one another's sentences.

It's not a particularly bad observation; just an observation. And I find it difficult to see what bothers you.

Though I gather from the remainder of this post, you are encouraging me not to ask.
