It's ok fuzzybutt, it happens every year about this time. I think they call it "cabinfever" or fullmoonitis whatever but this too shall pass once the bikes turn out of the driveway!

         Yeah, things get a little testy here at times. I've been around here for a bit over 2 years and there have been some alot worse! :-\    Fortunately, they have been pretty tame, compared to what they used to be!

I think the general mood in the USA might be a bit grim at the moment. The war in Iraq is costing trillions of dollars, one percent of homeowners are being sold up by the banks, something like another 10 percent are having difficulty making mortgage repayments. The housing market is in a huge slump, don't even think of trying to sell right now, and on and on it goes.....

 I've heard it being called "Techno-balls". The same thing as "beer-balls" at the bar, just on the computer. Some people get "brave/stupid/ignorant/rude" when they can hide behind a computer screen.

What an ignorant thread.
You must be Republican.


No wait- that was kind of touchy-feelie...
You must be a Liberal Democrat- and that's worse!


And you don't like Harleys because you've never even ridden one.


Not even getting into your stinky oil...




well, that's it.  Everybody go home and let the paramedics work.

Yep, and have you noticed it's usually the same couple of people doing 90% of the #$%*-stirring?

Fisher, you have taken part in it too. It is something that just happens. I am sure most of us remember last year with tom.
the whole glass house thing.

Anyways, we are all pretty much guilty at one time or another. Especially those of us in the northern climes.

It will go away and then be boring around here, then fall will come and we all come back. Just a normal circle.

This year appears to be my time for some of it. Like I said, it happens to everyone.

Ok, I'm up for it.
Come on over, and we'll see if I can improve your attitude after climbing the hills around here searching for firewood to keep warm.
