    In my first few years as a member of this forum, I sometimes got a little hot about some of the things I read and replied. Of course this just made things worse and occasionally got me into a tiny bit of trouble with the mods.

    Now, as I approach my 7th anniversary as a member, my practice is to pretty much ignore threads which might be in violations of our rules. If I see something that really gets to me,I might go as far as P'ming a mod and asking that they take a look at the thread.

    There are three subjects which I will not argue with anyone, be it on here, or face to face, and all three are covered by our rules

    All this talk about cheese and pickle sandwiches...the fried peanut butter and banana sandwich is far superior...after all it's the the sandwich of kings and more importantly the sandwich of THE King.

    Sorry...all the "sammich" talk made me hungry. Now, if you will excuse me, I have to go meet up with my friend Peter Pan and his Chiquita at the griddle!

    Onion and pepperoni in a grilled cheese is good, too, especially dipped into tomato sauce which has a right smart of Italian seasonng in it.

    I have enough irritations and negativity in my every day life. Why let that get carried over to a forum where I go to read and write about stuff that I *enjoy* with like-minded people? ?

    It became clear and obvious a long time ago that people who get in a huff and make problems for others online, are generally people that are very unhappy with themselves.
    I often feel very sorry for those types knowing that they lack the spine to actually say these things they feel so strongly about, to the faces of their intended recipients.

    I have a simple rule: If you wouldn't say it/do it to someone in person, don't type it online.

    It's most pertinent and relevant to a thread that is currently carrying a rather swift moving topic in another section on this forum.
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    Hear, hear. I've learned to ignore even those here that intend to bait argument.
