Joe is right. We don't need anyone to stir the pot. If you want to stir the pot go to BTC.
Actually if I remember correctly I was not the one doing the stirring but rather being stirred. I was the one being smacked around a little. And all figuratively (your turn to not read more into something than was intended Kerry)......
So you saddle up, consider if someone has a point or not, towel the cold water off and move on.
The people in the eastern part of the country, specifically NY and NJ, have a reputation as being abrasive and obnoxious. I have dealt with them in my business for some 30 years as they gravitate towards what I do. What I have come to admire about them is their bluntness.......you know exactly where you stand. There is no subtlety, no guile. There is a way forward should there be differing perspectives. You know precisely where they are coming from.
And so, from my perspective at least, I prefer the one who may be harsh but honest versus the one who is smiling and saying soothing words while the knife is in the back.
What does this have to do with canoe country? Nothing I guess but neither has the entire last page.
Is it time to change the subject? I suppose it is.
