Many people here remind me of those you ride on the elevator with. Nothing shared. Staring.

Others remind me of specialist doctors. You get an opinion, but who is that guy? You'll never really know.

And then others make me wonder why anybody would want to take up proctology.

My main complaints are two. People who are never wrong in their own minds, and people with such a narrow point of view it seems they've been locked in a cabin in the woods. Even in all the years I spent 60 miles from a village, living in lumber camps, I'd go to town and buy 30 magazines and a dozen books.

And I don't mean those magazines, yet in the day, there was always a gun rack in the back window. I was the one responsible to dispatch the problem bears, and some years it was a lot of work. 2.5 million acres at 300 trees to the acre average. 2x4's and bounty paper towels.

I'm not overly fond of those who you never see help anyone, but jump in and post whacko stuff in the OFF-topic forum. You wonder if they just log on to pick fights or light matches in the dark.

Heaven knows I'd like to force feed the complete unbridged Volume 10 of the Norton Scores to a few people.
