A pat on the back

First, I want to thank all the folks that took the time to post something positive about our veterans yesterday. Without them a forum of this nature might not even exist. When I dropped in next door, I only found one post saluting veterans with no replies. Sad. Not even a kind word for their own admin for his service. Remembering the veterans is important and I’d much rather be among folks that appreciate their sacrifice rather than folks that can’t be bothered.

Just goes to show we have a better bunch of people frequenting this board. I used to go over there to see what they were talking about. But, they are almost dead, and what little they do talk about is not really worth the effort to click and read.

I think I see that too - I think I have done 2 posts on the other but this one seems to be more "happinin" without a bad "aura" around it. Besides my mom always told me to be nice first - ......... I didn't learn mean till later.....when I needed it. I hope this board stays like it is you can actually get some information from it. The other seemed like the Linda Blair house at times. I don't think many are interested in raising the demons that were barfin over there.........just had some real radicals it looks like.

Watch out, Bubba, here comes the Cloud 9 again!!! This board is truly a gift to us all. It shows us that there can be debate without stooping to name-calling and picking apart each others' posts. We learn more from that - about the original topic AND tapping into our more politically correct side - and that will serve us all well at some point in our adult life.

Bickering definitely has it's place when it's called for, and it's place is in a private message or even the IM at the bottom of the DB page. There's just very little need to have dirty laundry aired in public. It demeans the poster.

OK, back on my little cloud!
