You'll figure out the terminology as you read the threads. "In The Bubble" and "On Campus" refer to being "on the ground" in TV. Drinking the Koolaid refers to the feeling of helplessness that afflicted most of us when we first visited TV, and somehow ended up buying a home, often unplanned!
Hey..... You left nothing for me to post!!! You KNOW how I get when I'm left out.... Oh wait! I did post anyway!!!!
