What the heck is going on

[Der_Iron_Chef]

I haven't been paying attention to them. I know myself, and I might get a little testy, were I to wander over into those threads

Yeah I think I'm going to have to keep a closer eye on them. People can discuss that stuff on a board thats related to it.

I don't know where the heck you come up with these but they always make me smile Marc

Ok so maybe I had only drank half of my first cup of java when I posted this morning and came off a little cranky. I really enjoy this board and have learned a lot and hopefully been able to share just a little bit. I usually read all of the posts as part of my morning "time to wakee wakee Ruth" ritual. I enjoy the knowledge, pictures etc. etc. as well as the interesting - off topic - and often fun and/or silly topics in the lounge.
I respect and enjoy healthy debates on a variety of subjects, particularly those that I am passionate about..........but ........I don't come on this board to discuss or debate cutting horses, my work, my political opinions or just my plain old opinions on a variety of issues (even though I am positive that my opinion is the RIGHT one). I come on here to discuss, learn and even debate about another of my passions and that is keeping reef tanks and personally I find that it is those "other" threads that are going to drive me away. This is just my view of the world and I understand that not everyone agrees.

The point here is some topics are more personal than others. Why are some people outspoken in regards to what a retard Harper is but at the same time won't harp about how they hate homosexuals and their carnal pleasures?

That's why.

Yeah, any thread can turn "political". We can start a thread about doody and turn it into whatever we want, but topics like war and religion ALWAYS - and always WILL - wear out their welcome because everyone likes to give their "humble 2 cents".

PS: What bothers me is that some people try to downplay their opinion even though they feel 110% about it.

Cutting horses, you're into cutting horses... Well let me tell you what I think about cutting horses. Just kidding. I always like reading post from fellow "out in the boonies" reefers. Good stuff
