If you wrestle with the pig, the pig will be having fun. Just choose mud wrestling with a woman instead? ;-) You wrestle with the pig and will be covered with manure!!! I believe in full body condoms. ;-) And a bit more seriously, I do vacillate over the years about internet flame wars and similar. Occasionally most forum denizens do get a kick out of seeing an a'hole get whacked a bit. Once or twice I've been on the receiving end too... in spite of being related to Mary Poppins. ;-) And thanks to TJ for the light touch.

I had and have it easy, for I 'gave up' from the get-go when first taking on the task of moderator, starting w/ the 'original' post. It used to be that whenever anyone tries to yank my chain I just look at a gold chart starting w/ year 2000 on the time scale as one would sip some water. Today, I just remember the hug from my daughter and the yelp of delight by my son. Tomorrow I may do something different in response if I feel like it, like yank the chain back. Chain? What chain? Who cares what chain? Are we not lucky we firstly have no chronic and systemically debilitating health issues; That we are able to care for our seniors where they are close to us in all ways including geography; That we get hugs from those unconditionally w/ us; That we have friends we can count on and work with, share in accordance to combined abilities and contribute in line with particular strengths; That we enjoy our work, are able to exercise passion through our work, and mentor those younger than us to try to give them a headsup on what may happen; That our P&L are not in deficit, and balance sheet holds hope while the kids hold promise - especially the promise that the kids may one day find themselves where they shall be as we are, happy, and That we look forward to each and every day. Is there something else important to life that does not fall under the general category headings of health, family, friends, passions, p&l and balance sheet, and above them all, hope? Well, right now that would be the release of "resident evil retribution" tomorrow :0)
