I appreciate your continued efforts to present the yak-yak shows in some sort of organized fashion. I'm going to sit the shows out this weekend (and possibly for the near future as well).

As I was sitting in the back of the patrol car last night contemplating my "fortunes and futures" I came to the conclusion that politics was just not for me. I've been quiet since Black Tuesday and only wanted to go have a few beers and blow off steam. It figures that I would run into a bunch of big mouthed liberals. It also figures that I would find myself in the middle of their shiite.

After what seemed like hours of talking, conferring, and following a stern lecture I was let go. "Mutual combat" they called it. A good ass-kicking is more like it. To my 50+ year old credit, I gave better than I got (although my split lip hurts like hell this morning).

The little bit of common sense that I have left implores me to give up before I get myself into more trouble than I can ever talk my way out of (or fight my way through).

All last summer I would catch the Sunday thread and then go work on a street rod that I am building. I think I'll devote the winter to finishing it (before the Dhimmicrats outlaw them outright).

Good luck to you and yours..

I sure hate to read about your fight last night...I haven't even been in one...but have seen them. It sounds like you came out of it better than you could have..and I am glad that a split lip...and a lecture from the LEO..was all that happened.

My husband works with ALL libs...and yet my husband is such an easy going guy that though they disagree, he usually just laughs about the verbal "fights"...

BUT, this last 3-4 months even HE had to avoid any discussion of politics. He is a Viet Vet...and the closer it gets to looking like the Congress of this country is determined to pull another "Vietnam"...the madder he has gotten.

He is even pretty apolitical compared to me...but, he is having to avoid any news or websites that talk about the election or the war or anything.

I hope you come back...after you have had your self imposed "time out"...and have fun fixing up your car.

I hope you will forgive me if I take some small pleasure in that.
