I suspect you are right Flo.  I communicated with one of our forum friends yesterday who indicated that they needed to take a break from the forum after this past weekend.   I hope the break doesn't last too long.

Hey, All!! :-)  I noticed how quiet it has become, too...but I am sure that everyone will bounce back to normal soon.  Kansans are made of hardier stock than that! :-)

I noticed what seems to be a flurry of activity in the Poetry forum. After a break I am sure we will see forum members return.  I could show you other forums that I belong to where the past weekends exchange would be one of the more friendly conversations. ;).  I think the uniqueness and overall family feeling of this forum will keep them coming back.

 ;) I've taken my blood pressure pill, how bout the rest of you?  :angel:  Just seemed we had gotten off the beaten path a tad bit.  It had moved from "politics" to "attacking others' mentality and political persuations".  I personally don't like "mud-slinging" -  ;D ;D leave that to the polititions.  I've always figured the political candidates who felt they had to dig up all the skeltons they could find on their opponent, either had too much time on their hands or didn't have enough "good" things to say about themselves, so the only alternative was to smear their opponent to make themselves look good.

Yeah, and your mother wears overshoes!  I never did understand that one. I wonder how many weird insults we could find.

I don't think I ever had that hurled at me.  Probably because if my mother heard it she would use her army shoes to walk all over them.  Things like that weren't allowed at our house.  Neither were fighting or cussing.  Mother didn't enforce it so much as my little brother did.  Since we owned the sports equipment our yard was usually full of friends, usually my brother's friends.  If anyone couldn't get along or couldn't watch their tongue, my brother would pick up the ball, bat, basketball or whatever we were playing with, take them inside and that was it.  Everybody could just go home or go somewhere else to play.  And, yes, he is still like that.

Yes, he used to say that the only fight he ever lost was when he slipped going around a corner.  He could talk his way out of anything.

 ::) you suppose Wilma's brother is where the saying originated "I'll take my bat and ball and go home"
