Good morning!

Hope everyone had a good labor day weekend.

Mrs p6 and I are saddened. A&E canceled Longmire. Just finished it’s third season. Many fans believe it was canned in part because it was not PC. The bad actors were often leftists, indians, environmentalists, hippies etcetera.

Maybe Mr S and I should give it another look-see. I noticed that it is on Netflix.

Longmire was a show watched by a lot of people and A&E cancels it. Don’t make much sense.
I guess they would rather make crappy shows like “Storage Wars” than good shows. Would love to see AMC pick Longmire up.

Longmire wasn’t for everybody. There were a couple of times I thought it was more graphic than need be. But overall it was our favorite show. The plotline was complicated, you had to pay attention.

Acting and writing were excellent. If you watch you should start at the first episode. It might be hard to figure out the overall plotline otherwise.

The owner was on FB saying Quinn and Rose lied they could stream and wanted to charge people money to stream. Just came off 7 days of work..1,500 miles..one day off..

Yes, I’m really confused about all of this and who is telling the truth.

So Quinn and Rose wanted to charge people for a Stream?
I don’t think they have that large of a fan base to pull that off now. Maybe if they did right after they got canned. But too much time has passed.

Yeah, well, the owner also lied when he said he intended to run a radio station.

He is basically just a pass-through to allow Clear Channel to shift their crappy programming to Tony Renda’s stick allowing both parties to keep their hands clean.

How much could it possibly cost to do a podcast?

OK, I've hesitated saying anything for a looonnnnggg time because I didn't want to offend anyone. I DO love Q&R and wish they'd do SOMETHING rather than nothing, but...

My friends and I go WAAAYYY back with Q&R, all the way to the very first think tanks in '94. We were regulars at those, and then when they folded, we formed a quasi-formal think tank in the North Hills (Thomas Jefferson Think Tank) which ran for 13 years.

Now to the controversial part...over the years, Q&R developed a reputation with my friends of being "payday patriots". I personally witnessed that issue again over the winter with Rose.

Quinn admitted on twitter that he doesn't need to work anymore, so I can't argue with him wanting it to be worth his while. That's their choice. I'm very disappointed and hope they return somewhere, somehow. We do need their insights on a mass market forum.

See, if Quinn doesn’t need to work...(saw that on Twitter as well), then the hold up is Rose (if we logically connect the dots).

*sigh*

No one begrudges anyone the chance to make a decent living, but this silence as to what is happening, the lack of proper usage of their website, the lack of social media (FB, etc) and cryptic comments from Quinn is maddening.

Well, just found this on Breibart - so, can’t trust Glenn Beck (not that I did, but a lot of people refer to the Blaze as a possible home for Q&R)
