Title: Re: POD (cont. 12)

Hi Kypaddler, that hit the spot so I'll extend another rather rare welcome. Your post in this thread was a timely reminder for me how the BW/Q always seems able to ferret out the worst in some and the best in others. (BTW - I believe your thinking panoramma.)

I like this POD thread so far....

Beyond what's already been mentioned, I don't so much. There's a mean, rather rude chunk of it lingering in the cat hole and an offshoot in the mod forum that continues to waste many people's time beyond my own. Unfortunately, the same human has spewed the same crap before. Why the second chance? Perhaps because I mistakenly saw some honest good lurking plus the damage was already done so allowing people to voice, vent and even find some creative humor of their own making seemed necessary.

I know almost everyone would by now would enjoy a repost of either of the two shots we've already seen of Balls_Johnson holding his stringer of eye's in the Q ...yet I think I'll save that path for another time. Hopefully there won't be one. Hmmm, I should probably follow up with a PM and fill in the mods "aina-hey". Nah, where's fun in that?

This has become a good thread to remind folks that I appreciate all the various 'heads up' type PMs I receive on any subject, even though I don't answer all of them and it may look like I've not even read some. (I consider theym FYIs) I do read and appreciate them all and often have a lot more to go on as well so normally my answer is simple action. We all tire of particular tangents and want some to be water under the bridge. Frankly, this one is such a no brainer I was willing to play a bit longer than most would like so I don't need any more PMs on it. I can take it from here - thanks.

Personally, I'm a real softy for differing opinions. It's the not so anonymous, intentional rudeness with all it's repercussions I can live w/o.

Don't mind this addition too much, I'm just trying to find some small enjoyment in adversity while touching some bases - carry on. Just remember we all leave tracks that are easy to follow if need be. That's why a few get hidden after a time and some find their way to the cathole A.S.A.P.  - they are just not good footsteps to follow.

Speaking of tracks :D, I recently returned from a solo. I pack heavy and that requires three portage trips in one direction. Well, on the drier, yet muddy portage into Pickerel from Maria, I must have started my first trip with my left foot and the second with my right or vice versa because on my third trip, I noticed my right and left prints matched up for three paces in a row so well that I hadda laugh. It looked like I had been hopping. I would have taken a picture that wouldn't do it justice but the cameras went over on the second trip.
