The Mudcat is one of these, and I truly hate to see it sullied as it has been in recent weeks. I made myself a promise that I would not make any more posts to any opinion/inflammatory/attack/juvenile threads. So here I am, starting one...........maybe this makes me one of the "Old Gaurd"?....so be it. If I don't speak out, just how can I change anything?

Max, thank you for this forum where all of us can express an opinion; even those whose opinions are not really worth expressing.

And you know, while I am at it, Praise/Susan never did offend me at all, even though she knows I am not a Christian/ Jesus Freak. I have never seen in her what so many of you seem to see--the Prostelyzing Jim/TammyFaye idiocy. Praise is not a prostelyzer, just an advocate, and none of you can say you are not an "advocate".....

so, advocate and be damned. I will probably be back in a week or so, hopefully more grown up/adult than I am now.......after all, I am only 49......doesn't that mean I have a few more years until my dotage, when I will be indulged?

Sorcha/Scorchy/, who is just bloody tired of AnyBashing....Let's do music , friendship and humor, OK? Nite all, and I know all this has been said before.......see ya.
