It was part of my first posting experiences (over a year ago)and I've said the same thing about many other subjects, like, all the new tiki stuff, "purist" tiki decor, and Jimmy Buffett fans. We certainly aren't going to agree on everything. But the funniest thing I find about this thread and the Buffett threads, is all the hits, responses, and attention they get. Come on guys, kids and babies know that even negative attention is some attention and everyone knows that bad publicity keeps your name in the public eye. So sure enough this thread has gotten more attention than most long time member's posts, without even a BUMP! Suckers! If you don't like a post ignore it and let it fall to the bottom! Sure I don't like being a "target" and would like members to follow the rules on posting ebay auctions but I say he really made fools out of you guys and got tons of attention! Good for him! Zen, I say stick around, many of us started with a first post that didn't get the popular response, so what. Don't participate in the childish banter, unless you are just keeping this thread at the top! I still miss Squawker (a run-off member), and wish I would have seen his living room waterfall. No group of people, no matter what the common interest, will agree on everything. What a boring place that would be. PS. I too got home from work, a couple beers ago. I work at a bar, you too?
