Tom. Are you just PO'd because that happened at Hy Vee and not at Walmart? Do YOU have waist length hair and a nice butt? Tom, don't blame me for my weirdness. Blame my doctor. When I was born, instead of holding me up and slapping my butt, doc just threw me against the wall. Then, the nurse put me in a nursery full of democrat babies instead of the one with pretty, intelligent Republican babies. That's why I'm this way. My doc is dead now. When my folks saw how I was turning out, they had doc killed. True story. I can show you the hospital it happened in.

My point Nedl is, that It just seems that when someone attempts to have an intelligent conversation, someone has to change the subject and go off in an entirely different direction. 

Yes nedl, sometimes getting old does suk - but it beats the alternative! When we read the obits and there are LOTS of younger folks listed - well it tends to make one either thankful or scared.

As to our tending to get off topic here - I seldom have conversations with ANYONE when someone doesn't inject a comment or story that isn't exactly on topic. Imagine how boring this thread - or life - would be if we rambled on for hours on the very same topic. Variety IS the spice of life. Thanks for that little sprinkling of hot pepper!

How long should we keep posting about one subject without straying? If I'm disrupting things that much, I'll retreat to my other "board homes". Sorry.
