The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I’v banished you and Jedi for short periods of time, but never for long.. Eventually, I’ve pulled you back out again.

Anyhow that was a good April Fools joke. I felled for it hook, line and sinker.

I did not ban anyone at the Fool, insults and nasty was so frequent, half the posters would have been grayed out. It’s where I grew a thick skin. The only thing that would upset me there is when one would think it okay to include insulting DH and Sons.

For a while I banned a women on this Board, forgot her user name, I called her the ‘screeching banshee’, she just wouldn’t leave me alone but couldn’t wear me down though and she finally disappeared from this Board.
The other one was Umm, we all know him, lol. All his insults ring the same to whoever he is directing his nasty-nasty to and now I read his posts for the laugher it brings me.

I never banned you Bill, there were times maybe I should have ;) but I reached a point a long time ago when someone goes the insult route, it just doesn’t matter, it’s water off a duck’s back
and I go on my merry way.
