Hey Eddie,
Hope you will reconsider, have learned a lot from your input the last year or two.
We always need someone to stir the pot, get people thinking, keeps the blood flowing, usually in a good way.
The full moon always gets our opinions up.

While driving through NJ in the late 60's after midnight,I happened to hear a college radio DJ sign off with the phrase
"Don't let the Bas****s Wear Ya Down!"

While I knew he was probably referring to "The Establishment", it continued to resonate with me throughout my life whenever I became frustrated with anything stressful going on.

Also, I always try to remember and live by the words of singer song writer John Prine when he sang:

That's the way that the world goes round.
You're up one day, the next you're down
It's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown.
That's the way that the world goes round.

On one live album he recounted how a fan had come up to him at a club in San Francisco and asked him to sing the song about the happy enchilada.
He said he'd never written any song about an enchilada, let alone a happy enchilada.

He asked her how it went and she said
"It's a happy enchilada and you think your gonna drown"
He said "I'm glad you like the words."

Hang in there and hope to have you back.
