Just wanted to say that I'm happy that, by and large, political discussions haven't ruined this forum.

I read another forum where the off-topic discussion was ruined by them. A few posters made multiple topics that completely dominated all the discussions (I like to read it for restaurant and bourbon recommendations). All of them invariably turned into p**sing contests.

The solution there was for the admins to create a separate political board, which worked just fine. That solution won't work here, though. (Although I do like the idea of keeping everything in one thread).

So I want to thank you all for keeping the discussions relatively civil. There have been a few problems and hard feelings, but very few, all things considered. I try to stay out of these discussions myself, but I confess I'm not immune to making the occasional snarky comment.

Anyway, there is a good sense of family here. We can disagree here and still stay friends, which is rare these days. Thought the board deserved to give itself a little pat on the back for that.

Thanks.  I told you why I'd let you hold my wallet. 
I don't understand why nobody replied to this thread except me.  Then, I figured it was because I pointed out a typo for fun... and it was corrected.  Then still nobody responded.  Frankly, I thought it was a nice thing Rev wrote to all of us.  Typo!  I was a smart ass; couldn't resist.  And then...

This place isn't really dead, but it is slower than it was in the glory years.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
