"Hey SlowPro48, give MrCrowley a break. You can tell the guy's been through a lot"


And my first grade teacher used to say:

"OK boys and girls - no poking and gouging - it's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt!"

And I say:

Crowley I hope you know I don't really mean anything by these smartass remarks - I'm just trying to stir things up and maybe I shouldn't be doing that since you seem pretty stirred up already. I feel for ya man. I used to get like that too when I was younger but after watching 8 presidents come an go it has finally dawned on me that the founding fathers of this country built some pretty good checks and balances into the system. We may zig a little to the left and zag a little to the right as we move through the ocean of time - this ain't no cruise ship making a beeline to Nirvana - we're tacking along in a square-rigger - "Old Ironsides" - aka the USS Constitution! But please take heart - we'll get there all the same. We'll all reach that distant shore in due time no matter who's president. Well there might be a mutiny along the way and a few scalawags will walk the plank - but most of us will get there anyway...

Anyway - sorry if you were offended by any of my comments. And I am sincere about that.
