I Have Been Talking to Some of You For Years
#1
This morning I was thinking about this forum and reflecting on how long I have been coming here. Although I have not met some of you, I have met many of you that still come here. I guess what I was thinking is that I "meet" with you guys as often as I do with some good friends and relatives. 

This forum is different then the few other forums I visit. I don't regularly participate on those other forums unless I am looking for information. I come here just to see what the hell you are all saying and I enjoy this place most of the time. 

I like "discussing" events and ideas with you all. I also like debating ideas with those of you I typically disagree with. You see, here, I win most of the debates, but in the real world I hang out with intellectual giants and learn from them.  Razz

It's going to be a warm autumn day, enjoy it.   Big Grin

Pleasant post, and went well with my 2nd cup of coffee. Is Autumn great, or what! A wonderful time of the year. Even the woodpeckers pounding on the aluminum gutters can't ruin it. Soon the leaves from my Oak trees will fill the yards, but this year I'm farming it out to a younger more able guy. My job is just to get to the store and buy the clear 50 gallon bags. (Anyone use the paper ones?) 

Glad you have "intellectual giants" to hang out with. Ask a few to join the RVF and engage in the debates here.

Now...one more cup of coffee wouldn't kill a guy. And I WILL enjoy the warm autumn day.

Not really, I was just having some fun. I wish I hung out with intellectuals. I know a few interesting and smart people that I like talking with, but I do live in GP ya know. Most of the really smart people I know are liberal Democrats so perhaps I should move to Ashland.  Big Grin

So, I can't remember, but I think I joined MTF in 2006.  Does that sound about right?  TM was there back there. And Oldy.

Hello Zhang. I was surprised to see your post. I hope things are going well for you. I still plan on eventually traveling to China, but not this winter. I will be going to Kerala and Goa India in late February. A friend has asked me to go for years and even offered to pay my airfare. I plan to travel around the country so I am arranging my own travel. 

Do you get email notices if you receive a personal message from this site? If you do, I can send you one before I arrange for travel to China and you can advise me on some places to see. I hope to go to both Thailand and China in January 2017. I have not made plans yet, but I am now mostly retired so nothing is stopping me from going. In fact, I'm going to Saint Thomas this January. I always wanted to travel and now I am doing it. 

Take care, nice to see you post.  Smiling

At least that, maybe earlier in fact. Seems I was still livin up in the hills in dial-up heaven on the MMT Forums. I left there in 2003.

You don't want to have him hear with his own ears how he will only take your guns out of your cold dead hands?  Razz

I wouldn't cross the street to see Madonna.  I wouldn't cross the street to see Bruce Jenner, or any Kardachian.  All for the same reasons.

Are you really so dense as to not get the point?  I don't think so.

But the current talking points for the left is to vilify the Sheriff.

Carry on with your marching orders...
