It's OK I'm just flippin ya crap---- hey I can say "crap" without a "K" or use "karp" I feel so adult now.
Dave M told me you had vehicle issues.
Only saw him Harry V, & Aaron Rosenthal ( I probably spelled that wrong).
Stopped by Jim B's job in Browns Point yesturday---- he recognized me, that was a bit of a surprise.
I stepped out of the DW's truck & offended him by saying I saw his job from my deck cause I could see a "blue tarp".
I guess my terminology sucks----- what's wrong with "blue tarp" anyway?
Is Jim gonna host the fest next year? A lot of the responses I got to my "goodbye letter" said I need to go.
Since I'm working swing shift I think I'll whip a batch of my "judicial miscondonduct" chili & bring down there for him & his crew.

Jeff,
I think on this topic you should lighten up b/c it's OBVIOUSLY a venting thread. Let things take their course.
If I see Dino as kissing Tauntons ass..which I do..then I'm gonna say so..if you wanna ban me then feel free but I'm not gonna get muzzled here or anywhere else for that matter. I already pulled "myself" from BT for a year b/c I was sick of Taunton's games only to come back and tip toed around the place pretty much only to get tossed for being a racist???? LOLOL. How fuged is that??
To me a good forum is a forum that has the people...the community run it "to some degree". Just like a real village...or at least a village I'd like to live in. Thats just my opinion. If we want sterile, there's PLENTY of sterile builders forums out there.
I have yet to see a forum where "builders" can be builders. You want a niche or more of the same? That's up to you. I can as easily go over to JLC and be bored to death. I go over there specifically for building questions so my visits there are minimal being I already know everything...lol.
I said it before...I'd seen in a cpl of different forums like the Forestry Forum or was it The Timber Framers Guild...I forget where...but they had a folder that was an area the advertisers as well as a select few of regular posters could go, to discuss the forum with weekly meetings.
Seems to me everyone can then be represented. Thats up to the people that started the forum. It belongs to them and how far they wanna see it go is up to them. The internet is laced in forums.
This is just a suggestion and it's coming from a caring place. It's a way to have a sort of demmocracy within a vested interest group...wait a minute...I'm a Democratic Socialist.
I dunno...I'd be interested in hearing what others think on this subject....not that it probably matters.

Only way I could have gotten there, would to have been to start at 3 am. Walk the several miles of railroad track and highway, to get to the nearest bus stop. Then ride the bus all day long with transfer after transfer after transfer...
Well, I'm still gonna apologize.
Least I could have done is email you.
Sorry about that.
Yeah, that Blodgett. Always doing second rate work like that. Dood wood have a blue tarp for a roof, if his wife would stand for it. 
I think most of us are hoping real hard that Jim will host the big fest, next August. (Or whenever he decides is the best time for the fest.)
I really like the chili idea !!
Good time for it, too.

Andy,
First let me say that I am glad you have stuck around.
You are one of my favorite people here and at Breaktime. But as you have seen, I am not going to play favorites when it comes to my job, here.
Go ahead, vent.
It isn't just Calvin that has allowed the venting, so far. There are other moderators and administrators here as well. Including myself. We have ALL alowed things to go as far as they have.
But it's time to tone it down now... And start thinking about the future, and letting go of the past.
I take issue not with venting, but with personal attacks and insults.
You can vent without being personally denigrating.
Spin it any way you want, justify it any way you want in your own mind. But calling someone a suck-ass or an ass kisser is simply not acceptable.
And it's not going to be made acceptable by majority concensus.
Think it all you want. But don't say it again, or I'll have to step in again.
I don't need your permission, or anyone else's, to do what I must do, to moderate here. I will do my job.
And if that makes me unpopular, or a nazi, or whatever, in some people's eyes, well I'm sorry. But that will just have to be the way it is.
This place is not sterile. It never will be. Calling it so, doesn't make it so.
In some eyes, apparently either the place has to be a pig stye, or a hospital. There is no in between.
Most of us live in between...
And most of us can disagree without denigration and derision.
Practice namaste.

One
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
It's one love
We get to share it
It leaves you baby
If you don't care for it
Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's too late
Tonight
To drag the past out
Into the light
We're one
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play jesus
To the lepers in your head?
Did I ask too much?
More than a lot?
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
We hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
One.

( Damn - my Firefox keeps re-setting - this is now the fourth time I am trying to type this after logging in here...  )
strange you should mention Matt, since I was just thinking of him friday at work. I prefer counting blessings to focusing on life's curses, and his visit here was one of them.
Sorry I did not get much face time with you at the fest.
Let me buy you a cyber-beer here and now - hangover free - and while you nurse it, let me offer an apology for all my past rudeness. I'm sure there are things we can discuss without that.

"What's that old saying?...Democracy is sometimes brutal and sometimes ugly, but I wouldn't trade it for any other system on this planet? (something like that)"
Beats shedding real blood, doesn't it?

Only way I'm getting back in is to create a new screen name & I found out that someone in the tavern accused some screen names of being mine, which weren't but oh well let them live in their fantasy.
As to getting back under a new name------ well my jury is still out on doing that.
If I do it will be in 2009 & no sooner.
I do have some things to post in cooking, but getting there is a bit tricky as it wants to route through BT & my screen goes blank when I try that, but if I type in an exact cooking address it bypasses BT.

There have been, and still are, sooooo many absolutely clueless accusations going around.
It would be entertaining, if it weren't so sad...

I know I could get a fake name and post, probably even ask for permission to hit the tavern ... but what's the point.
if I can't speak as myself ... it just ain't for me.
might not be a bad alternative to keep an eye on things, but long term ... why walk around neutered.
it's their place .. their rules ... if they don't like me ... then it's obviously not the place for me. I been kicked outta better places.
I can only censor myself so much ... after that ... it's not much fun ... and the whole point is to make myself giggle every now and then.
other wise ... it's like work. And I have more fun at work than what that'd be ....
On a plus sign ... less time on line ... realized I have a wife ... and actually relearned my kids names.
both of then ... I'd forgotten there were two ...
boy they've grown!
