Good post Jim. There are way too many left wingers out there. They want to take all common sense and choice out of society and replace it with political correctness. My personal "hot button" is the brain washing of people concerning certain social problems, i.e. smoking is harmful to SOME people, so EVERYBODY must stop smoking. Or course, we don't have the same attitude toward alcohol, one of society's greatest nightmares. Before long we'll have no choices left to make for ourselves. The leftwing organization will make all choices for us. Here's something I forgot about the school systems: Taking away certain types of playground equipment because SOME kids MIGHT get hurt. Monkey bars, swing sets, etc. We can only have the safest equipment at the playgrounds because we wouldn't want any of our precious kids to get hurt, like millions of kids have before.

Jim, You are right. I do have a job and I stay busy at times. I quickly signed up for the education course titled "Communication Skills II: Thinking Before Speaking," I can say it gave me some time to think before I inserted my foot in my mouth! I hear that type of nourishment can be very fattening. I agree that different people have different opinions and that is what makes the world go round. It was not your opinion that bothered me. I also wasn't looking for an apology (Lord knows most men are not good at that). But enough said. I agree with your statement "On with the games"................ Denice
