^This is the reason threads get locked.  Because knowing the rules, some people want to press them as far as they possibly can.

You ever go to someone else's house and then swear at his wife because she didn't get you a drink when you walked in the door?

Clue

I still Think that we should blame Canada.

Because Brexit is dumb. Not just the action of Britain leaving the EU, but the moniker "Brexit" itself. There is no E in Britian!  :bhead

I like the song "Canada" by Van Halen.  The music video even has some air combat in it!

Canada!  Candada a!

I know not a single one of you likes the restrictive forum enforcement ruling , but why not  to ask for a relaxation in this rules?!

Then I am the single one that does like it, please allow me to explain.

Without these rules, and strict enforcement of them, this place goes from "spitballs" to "Global Thermonuclear War", with no steps in between.  We would not need any rules if folks just practiced self control.

My grandfather, who taught me everything I ever needed to know passed away many years ago.  Because of the respect I have for him, every day, in every thing I do, there is always a little bit of him.  I don't want to have him meet me at the pearly gates with the statement, "Rick, you've got a few things you need to explain to me."  I'm far from perfect and never "holier than thou", I just want to be good, and to respect for myself.
