Oh, you know, the usual. If you're lucky enough not suffer from whatever malady drives folks like myself to hang out in the Politics section, then there's nothing going on you'll be sorry to have missed.
I like politics and like to discuss political issues. I enjoy your posts very much. There's no need to feel bad for joining those conversations - we're not responsible for the crazies who occasionally blow things up. I do wish we'd all do better at ignoring them, however.
You know if it weren't for us in Politics, they'd be bored and hang out in the Education section and spend all day telling parents how to bring up their kids.
Oh wait
I happily stay away from the Education section these days!
mjh - thanks, I appreciate that! OTOH, taking a step back I'm not sure "I enjoy getting into arguments with strangers on the internet" is entirely healthy... ;-)
I'm fairly certain it's what actually causes cancer. That's why I block politics and education threads. But then, that could also be because I don't trust myself to stay calm and rational when the fur starts to fly. *sigh*
