Years. Any drama over any topic that hooked folks’ egos, grandstanding, pride into fierce ‘last word’ desperate need to be right battles. Quickly begins to feel like a hog-wallow. I’m no saint but I do hate that kind of thing.

I lurked for many months before signing up—kept me sane during the Clinton years. Used to have some really good analysis back when people like Tony Snow posted.
I really don’t like those hog-wallows either. Generally am able to steer clear—get caught now and then though.
I don’t respond to other threads on FR anymore. Telling a joke on one got me shut down and I should have known better. And I still need to send Jim a donation. Will do that Monday.

The older I get, the less I get caught up in futile ego junk. Certainly not “arrived,” though.
