I'm going to disagree with you on every decision whether to lock or leave so that you'll feel really welcome.

Some time ago I was asked if I would like to be a forum Host.

My response?

Not just no, but youknowwhatkindof no!



I like being on MIRT, but even there it's one term at a time!

Even when I disagree with anybody here, I rarely let anything that happens on DU bother me after I step away from the keyboard. I figured that inserting some humor would make things better and it appears it has, although I haven't checked to see if the animal rights activists are upset because of possible alcohol abuse by cats. Furtunately I haz gud cred bcuz uf miz LOLCat yokes n stuf.
