I had been commenting for a year and this may be the first time I had made a comment that was not “on the path.” I did it out of concern for Jeff. You may think my effort was misguided but people disagree about things. Why are you investing so much in this—to guard the path?
What I have learned today is this is a tea party where non-stop schmoozing is required. That's what I learned. I really miss Germany where I spent 5 months and encountered a culture where the forthright statement of opinion never raised no one's hackles. Schmoozing is not my thing. When I have repeatedly said is this is a one off for me. I probably won't drive outside the lane for many a month to come.
Sarcasm can be misidentified by humour , but being healthy , loving and respectful is real and if we cross that line it's just a line ...you go on ... I learned not to question ones humour because that's what it is .. I've learned in my old age to always try and respect others decisions ...if I don't like it , and it's not aimed at my kids or grandkids to just consider the source . Jeff's daily laugh is what's pretty much kept all of us from sleeping at night . The big tangerine terrorists is what's are threat . Without humour right now we have very little hope .
It’s not that. You veered way off the path of the venue, Kathleen.

Listen Kathleen if you take nothing to heart about the comments here today you will have missed a spectacular opportunity for growth.
