Subject: Re: But no loose change
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="UTF-8"; reply-type=original
what is it still Friday ?
what.. ......people's lives are so mundane they can get hours of
entertainment out of some junk from the bottom of somebody's trailer ?
Not down on Mike's post actually......so not actually complaining about
that,
but if this passes for acceptable fodder on this list........
then why not tolerate some 'real' things ............things that some people
might call 'politics' .
But hey,
I've got boxes of oddball whatnot's that I've saved for decades, on the off
chance that late one night, some weird little doodad will break.......
and I'll have just the oddball thing I need to fix it .
Shall I post some pics of such ?
I think not.
I am VERY in favor of freedom of expression.
And I would like to suggest that if people can post pics of whatever weird
junk..........and others will delightfully participate and comment.......
then PLEASE.........if someone wants to discuss 'real' concerns of humans ,
things that directly affect the quality of life for humans on the
planet.......
and how we use our vanagons, ....
then please don't complain about those posts.
thank you,
Scott
