I was talking to Mrs. Daytona about this last night...
I seriously have lost my forum mojo especially in the last month.
The problem is that I went the better part of ten years being able to post, for the most part, whatever I wanted.....just being GRADS. I hadn't really met anybody on the forums so it was very easy to call someone out or talk trash to them.
Slowly but surely I'm getting to know more and more people from the boards and I have a tough time posting anything that might rub them the wrong way. I find myself thinking "that's probably not a very nice thing to say" and I delete it or don't post it................. A more politically correct GRADS.
My wife says that is a good thing.
It's called old age and the maturity that goes with it. It's been happening to me too even though (like you) I have a ways to go.

Don't worry about it too much GRADS, You'll fall off the wagon one of these days.......it's one of the things that keeps us all coming back
Hey Vic.....when you think about this it's not really a bad idea....just think about it for a minute.
In the service they will often force the biggest FU take charge and be responsible for someone other than themselves......9 times out of 10 they rise to the occasion when responsible for others.......the one out of ten that don't rise to the responsibility are usually shot (accidentally of course) by his men.....when you think about it like this......what have you got to lose???
