Why don't you tell us

...how you really feel? In this instance I do have to agree with you that the content seems, in TM's oft-used term, malapropos for this forum. Best, Gary ps -- to be absolutely clear, I am (I hope obviously) not aware of, nor am I attempting to express, a...

Sure, inflate him a little more. Maybe he can show us pictures of the professional cheerleading team he dated. That would have been the perfect follow up to the suitcase full of money post. Hey, even better - maybe he can write a rap song about himself! H...
Stay with us, Ralph!

I can assure you that there is a great deal of serious watch discussion here -- not to mention a tone of civility and cordial discourse that, with very few exceptions, has pervaded every discussion that I have participated in here over the past 8 years. A...
