We do need to smile. There's so much sadness lately and it can be overwhelming.

Yes, you do good!!!

There is so much I'd like to say this morning, but I dare not, as I'm sure it would not be allowed. Suffice it to say that I am appalled.

Start a thread. If it gets poofed, it gets poofed.

Good idea. I have to take my shower first, then I will get on it.

Enjoy your shower!

(((Ford))) Sorry about this tough anniversary. I also think of you every time I'm here. That's why I peeked at this thread. Plus Brii is one of my favorite peeps around here. Hope you return squeaky clean and ready to start a thread.

I started it and was surprised to see it went 30+ responses before it got poofed. It never got nasty, it was a civil discussion . . . not really even at the level of a debate.

It's the one thing I dislike about this BB. We should be able to discuss, in a civil manner (which we were), such an important societal event. We should not be treated as children.

I'm a brii fan too. Smile

I was pleased to see a post on the elephant in the room, Ford.

I knew it would be poofed, but there was enough discussion to at least ascertain that we are grownups and can discuss a controversial issue like adults.

Today, of course, the plot thickens.
