Andy,
You know you were sorely missed during the CT-trickle-down-to-shed siege. Did you know that Mark-the-gallant singlehandedly quelled the mess in CT by merely moving threads to the Tavern equivalent, Ipke, and letting us (actually, encouraging us to) talk, instead of deleting threads right and left? Hmmm. You and Li have also always had that same skill. Darlin’ I think y’all were ambushed and it misfired.
WB!!
Thanks Taunton, esp. Sue, for recognizing (albeit way too slowly for my tastes) that free speech can sometimes result in complments for you, e.g., finally recognizing that we fight so hard because of how much we love this place, and appreciate your providing it. But, ya know how much people dislike change. Break it to us gently, next time, babe, OK?
Yeah, I know, we can’t all get along, but it seems a good time of year to try. Please feel free to help me keep along that road, all, not just you, Andy. TIA
Peace/love/health/happiness/whatever

I name thee Kai the Zen-Mother. (No, not Den-Mother, but I think you'd do that well too)
Andy
*I second that, Kai the Zen-Mother!Mark (SYSOP)(Hey Andy I thought we both agreed to stay away from the boards this weekend and spend some time with our families? Well I guess that neither of us can stay away for long!)
*Hey Mark, I just came back from spending quality time with my youngest son cleaning out the Cub Scout bottle bin. Then, we stopped by at my neighbor's house to look over the rusted hulk of the '51 Willys he's restoring. How much better does it get?Andy
*Wow, Andy, thanks for the compliment, but it was Mark's win :-)
*Mark, you are too kind, albeit wrong :-) This was another of your shining moments. Did you notice a ~100% reduction in angry posts when you explained what you were doing? Excellent job!
*Mark your the bomb man...
*Ron, dear, punctuation/slang police here:"You're da bomb, man!"ITA!
*You guys do a great job, and management can't take that away from you. But stay awat from Kai, please. I got first dibs.Just shows what good a smart woman can do in a crowd of rowdy men. Hello, TALIBAN? Are you listening?Tom
*BTW, kai, and the rest of you, you're welcome.Mark's win, no doubt.
*Thanks for the compliment Tom, if awat means away :-) Are you and TWC the same? Please, I had nothing to do w/this except inform y'all, solicit your opinions, and get that and other threads deleted, nothing more, oh, and tick off a lot of folks. Andy has also graciously acknowledged Mark's win. In another thread, in Ipke, Mark says he will respond to a letter--I hope it seemed nice--that I wrote to him. If anyone is interested, I'll find the link or you can wander around--it's probably in one of the "Open Letter to ..." threads.Hey, and since I was thanking Taunton originally, too, another thanks--I have a very potential GC who answered my FREE Help Wanted posting here :-) Actually, I posted TWO FREE Help Wanted ads, and this gentleman appears to fit both! I mean, one for free, or two for free, what a country!
