Oh goody! Another red herring.
But, that reminds me of another thing I love about this board. And that is the wide ranging subject matter that Jim has come to allow to be discussed here. And, I recall, as that began to happen, some folks complained that we were getting away from the Prime Directive.
At that time, he would have been totally justified to squelch discussions of history (such as the War of Northern Aggression), food, sports, entertainment, etc. But, he figured out a way to allow for that and make this pretty much a one stop shop for a lot of us.
Couple of examples: When Johnny Hart died a couple of weeks back, within minutes, there was a thread complete with old B.C. comics and tributes from Freepers who enjoyed his work over the years. Then there are the little cyber communities that form around shared interests. I have gotten invaluable advice on my computer many times.
I enjoy NASCAR, the Mark Levin show, weather events and others. We are allowed that pleasure.
And I, for one, appreciate it very much.
Good mornin’, don-o. :) I appreciate that as well. Not sure what you meant about another “red herring”, but perhaps you hadn’t read the rest of the posts yet.
