Those who enjoy this board so much are "of an age" so to speak. And I am willing to bet that there is not one among us who has not experienced great sadness somewhere along the way. And unless we are complete idiots, we cannot help but have deep disquiet for the direction of our country and the direction of our world.

But to come in here and take us to task for enjoying a little fun is not the right thing to do. A little lightness can be a lovely thing. Even if it cannot completely deliver us from those things that can seem overwhelming at times, we still need need to find a little fun.

I certainly hope that this board does not take the direction of those who try to make themselves feel better by trying to make others feel worse.

Navy CO, I hope you will rethink us and join us for some fun along this so often difficult way. Sometimes a light little topic can be just what we need for a few minutes.

Peace.
