Hi Mark! It's always a pleasure to hear from you. My original post, I think, was deleted because I described myself as a lazy no-good liberal. I like the fact that we can joke about our beliefs - you calling yourself as a cold hearted Conservative - and we still get along famously when we actually get together in person. We need more of that - we are individuals with differing opinions, but in the end, just people who care about each others interests and opinions. I guess, what I'm saying, is that I miss the Political forum on this webpage. How about another get - together with the Minnesota Crossfire group? Lola's? Stillwater?
