No no no, don't move it. I'm waaaay behind on my Red and Harv&Vera reading. Right now, I can find them. If you move them, well, I'll lose them again.
Listen, each and all of y'all is welcome to be silly or not silly, depending on your personality. Remember the introvert vs extrovert poll? I think Rickey and me were the only extroverts in the crowd. So I can't really empathasize with not feeling welcome, etc. But I can sympathasize with you that you feel like you walked into an in-crowd riot in progress in the llounge.
Somehow, all of those introverts managed to find a niche in our happy little llounge community. So will anyone else who wants to play. If you want to know about the squirrels or llamas or pandorg or anything else, just ask and you will get a ton of meaningless replies, each with a kernel of info.
If the silliness bothers you, well, just ignore us llounge llizards. I personally stay on mostly llounge or welcome threads, because I'm not a computer person and have little to offer in a technical manner. If you are an expert in one of the devices but don't want to spend your time goofing off, then
PLEASE understand that what you contribute to the tech side of things is very much appreciated. I'm in awe of you and can only dream of having your talent to understand such things. Certain ones of the experts have proven so trustworthy and helpful that I lurk on their threads trying to pick up any pointers that may be casually tossed out and easily understood by others but are difficult for me. (PilotBob, Nick, JSWolf, just to name 3, also pdurrant, guarnin, =X=, oh gosh, my list keeps getting longer! I love you all!) And our news crew only occasionally comes out to play, but they are always on top of anything important that we need to know.
I want to apologize if my silliness has offended anyone. And I hope you will forgive me if my next silly post is offensive or insensitive. Because I want you all on my "friend" list and want to be on yours, and would never want to push away a potential friend.
I've said my say, so I'm going back to the llounge now, but will check back from time to time to see how this discussion is going. I have confidence that you all will continue to discuss this in the mature and open manner that it has been done already. One thing is certain about this community is that we are unique in that we embrace each other, no matter if we agree with one another. Oh, and another thing:
