MY OPINION.....for what it's worth......

I've kept several thoughts to myself during the "T.H." & this past week, but now I'm speaking up. I think it's such a shame that there are those that have turned a contest into a battle field. The contest was meant to be fun...even though at times it was very frustrating & really not very much fun, but it was not intended to create such ugliness. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, true, but no one has the right to destroy (or try to any way) everyone else's fun. There really is no need for all the complainers to keep complaining ..... The "T.H." is over! There's no need to post "ugliness" in discussions that doesn't have anything to do with them. (Such as the one about slickster's sick son) Or make actual threats. It just takes one negative, ugly comment in a post to ruin it. This has really brought the worst out in some people & showing their true colors...at least I know who's auctions not to ever bid on. People need to concentrate on their sense of humor rather than their bitterness. - Just in case the complainers are wondering, no I did not win during the "T.H.". Well, that's about it in a nut shell. Let's keep the friendliness & humor going strong. Thank You.

I just had to speak up. The uncalled for ugliness that was posted in Slickster's sick son discussion was, as they say, "the straw that broke the camel's back". I was actually starting to "see red" as I was reading it. People are showing their concern about a sick child & someone that must be so miserable with life just had to add their negativeness to it. That's sooo wrong.

I absolutely agree cricket. I was thinking the same exact thing as I was reading it. I am so glad that you spoke up. I wanted to, but as we all know, my words only seem to upset the apple cart. So THANK YOU!

I believe that there is a serious problem with people who are so hateful about everyone and everything. No names mentioned now, just an overall opinion.

For those who think they have it bad...how about this poor guy:


A police officer pulls over a speeding car. The
officer says, I clocked you at 80 miles per hour,
sir." The driver says, "Gee, officer I had it on
cruise control at 60, perhaps your radar gun
needs calibrating."



Not looking up from her knitting the wife
says: "Now don't be silly dear, you know that
this car doesn't have cruise control."



As the officer writes out the ticket, the
driver looks over at his wife and growls,
"Can't you please keep your mouth shut
for once?" The wife smiles demurely and
says, "You should be thankful your radar
detector went off when it did."



As the officer makes out the second ticket for
the illegal radar detector unit, the man glowers
at his wife and says through clenched teeth,
"Darn it, woman, can't you keep your mouth shut?"



The officer frowns and says, "And I notice that
you're not wearing your seat belt, sir. That's an
automatic $75 fine." The driver says, "Yeah, well,
you see officer, I had it on, but took it off when
you pulled me over so that I could get my license
out of my back pocket." The wife says, "Now,
dear, you know very well that you didn't have your
seat belt on. You never wear your seat belt when
you're driving."



And as the police officer is writing out the third
ticket the driver turns to his wife and barks, "WHY
DON'T YOU PLEASE SHUT UP??" The officer
looks over at the woman and asks, "Does your
husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am?"



( I love this part.... )



"Only when he's been drinking."
