Taking a break

Post by _Trevor »

Well, folks it has been fun participating in the Manichean struggle between a centrist Independent (that would be me) and whatever Kevin Graham calls himself, but I need to get my article revised and resubmitted before my son goes in for an operation next week (routine operation, no Biden moments).

This means that I will not be engaging in the sort of shameless fawning on liberal candidates and unbridled hatred for Palin that we centrist Independents have been rightly called out for. I will also not have time to stick my fingers in the dam of evil as the righteous floods of Kevin's truth-speaking and fact-finding pour forth and ruin my one-man Marxist Onanism party.

I will leave you to interpret that as your heart leads you, firmly believing, as I do, that we all judge ourselves in the end. ;-)

Peace, Kevin. Fight the good fight for cowboy-era Hollywood politics. The mavericks need your help busting that Railroad company before it steals the ranch from little Joe Sixpack.

Trevor,

This all seems like an elaborate escape hatch for getting out of taking the exam.

Trevor,

You are without a doubt, one of my favorite posters and I probably read almost every post that you make. Posting on a board like this can be a nice diversion from other things in life, like professional committments, until you find yourself putting those tasks on the back burner to engage in something on the board.

I hope things go well for your son and for your work. Just remember, that none of us are real ;-) but we'll likely be here generating nonsense when you return.

Take good care,
Jersey

Best wishes for a speedy recovery for your son. Kevin will just have to continue his laborious partisanship without you.

Trevor,

You continued on with Kevin in a largely patient manner for much longer than most of us could have. Every now and then you "lost" it, but that is understandable, and had you not lost it occasionally, I would suspect you were some sort of programmed robot like Deep Blue.

I wish your son good luck in his operation, and hope you'll be back soon.

Hope to see you back soon, Trev. Been enjoying your posts on election topics. Wish your son well on his operation.
