As far as I am concerned, there is just about nothing prohibited here. If there is an inner circle, they have my e-mail address if they want me.
It is one thing to single out a dumb statement - Rettata and Google searches come to mind. So do 'tennis balls in the plughole' and 'I peed with Dorenbos' - both mine. I like a laugh as much as anyone.
We have known each other a long time Rich. Why so sensitive? It is one thing to tease about a dumb statement or rant; it is another to take a personal shot at someone, especially since they left here.
I avoid a lot of stuff, so I do not always know (or care) what everyone else is doing, but this caught my eye as I surfed through. I was not trying to single you out. I ask you a simple question and you respond with basically "everyone is doing it and why are you picking on me"? You can do better than that!
If I see ya at the tail gate, I will buy you an ale. Don't take it so seriously.
