But I finally got a post locked. yeah yeah yeah I do find humor in this but I am having a day. It was not my wish for a political post but rather to state how the new laws as interpreted by corporate America are having a direct effect on my health care. Sorry to those who are offended

Aww. Well, when you speak your mind sometimes people are offended. Happens. This forum has its rules and guidelines established by its owner to operate in a way he or she intends. It may sometimes seem to be overly constraining, but it's their arena.

As a wise person said, it's impossible to please everyone. It is however surprisingly easy to upset everyone!

Rock on, brother Todd.

I have frequently felt the Moderators are too heavy handed here, but this time I think they got it right.

Congrats on your lock out,( he said sarcastically)but I disagree with those who interpreted that way. Mods have a hard job and we all appreciate them, but there should be room for grace in the rules. Said "rant" was not actually posted here but on you Blog,with the link , the link being along time accepted addition. So if they did not want to read or were offended by it, one thought would be to just move on without comment.(as i hope everyone will do about my comment.)

Thanks for demonstrating that in all aspects of this disease we can support each other. We may not always agree but we should all have the grace to accept each other's differences. I re-read what I wrote many times trying to understand what was so offensive. I am still at a loss but I trust the monitors to do what is right by the forum.

It was kind of political Todd, but I think it is a reasonable complaint had by many. We don't want to get into a pissing match here...we get away with it sometimes as it is. :)

Only took me (3) months, reference a religious status during a discussion of death, go figure.

What I find ironic is that there a people (here and everywhere else in the world) who will not give you the time of day until you say something that offends them or is misaligned with their point of view. Just saying. :-)

I am sorry I missed the thread and now can't find it. Did it get locked or vaporized?
Posted 2/29/2016 4:40 PM (GMT 0)
Both. Lol

Wow......you are strong brother Todd!!

Maybe just stupid Jack

I speak my mind. It's a curse/blessing. Most people know where I stand. At times I am shunned for it. Mostly I am embraced.
Posted 2/29/2016 8:09 PM (GMT 0)
Todd, if more of us spoke our minds not worrying about offending anyone the world would be a better place.
Sometimes things have to be said, dam the consequences.
Keep it up!!!

When I read that thread- I think I may have also posted, I'll need to check- I immediately wondered "hmmmm, wonder if this might end up shut down"! Congratulations, but I got one shut down at well under 2 years. And was surprised when it happened!

Oh I don't know about that. I can't say much enthusiastic about RP, but I sure have been able to pee like a race horse from the first try after the catheter came out. So f you really enjoy taking a fire hose style whiz and don't mind a long list of possible or likely complications, get an RP. Bit if you do, just be careful not to crack the porcelain.

Well what the heck, was the thread not just locked, but deleted? I wanted to read what went on since I posted last but I can not find it anywhere. Dang, it must have turned nasty. If it was deleted, my hats off to you Bro. I said it took me only 2 years to your 8 1/2, but I only got one closed. You got deleted. You are in a different league! LOL!

Ha ha. That's funny. Those who know me know I love to laugh so keep it coming.

I kind of wonder if those who got all butt hurt read what I wrote or were just offended by the title. It doesn't matter.
Posted 2/29/2016 10:25 PM (GMT 0)
It really didn't get nasty at all. It was just a couple of people that felt it was a rules violation.
