I vote for going on, by the time December rolls around, we should have well over 10,000 posts. Thanks for the pics of Arwen, I have been soft on her ever since I learned, for sure, that she was not going to be a member of the Fellowship.

I have been dealing with a most unpleasant group of trolls on this thread: 'Officer killed, 2 shot in rural standoff, DPS says (Warrantless Search Gets Cop Killed, Near WACO)' Basically they are either anarch-libertarians or actual criminals, and they have been posting such thoughts as advising people not to support policemen, and killing the police officer wasn't as serious as possibly not having a proper warrant. (Actually they had gotten permission from an occupant of the house, but had not actually entered it, and were shot from ambush by the career criminal perpetrator.) The opposition is actually in the majority on the thread, and, having been up waaay too long, I am going to have to leave the field, bloody but unbowed, my head and axe held high.

Samwise lurked on the thread, and freepmailed support, for which I give thanks.
