Mad? I've been mad all my life! Rabidly mad! Truly insane!

Oh, you mean the other kind of mad. When I get mad at what I've read on this forum, or elsewhere on the 'net, it means the subject touches me deeply. There are very few of these. Bigotry is one of them.

At such times I try to keep in touch with my sense of humor. There's nothing like a good laugh to cut through anger and depression.
