Thanks Johne. I watched a Bill Burr comedy show on Netflix the other day. When he said the following, my wife started laughing out loud and pointing at me. "People ask me all the time 'why are you shouting?'..... I'm not shouting. I'm just passionate about my opinion and I want to make sure you hear all of it before you get a chance to talk again." I'm thinking about making it my sig line.

I said, 'I know this group. We know each other very well, we can be candid with each other without having to explain all things you'd have to explain if you were having the same discussion with a complete stranger, it's ok,' and I sent the message. Which is to say, I very much appreciate that we can be straight with each other because of our long history, even when that bluntness would be considered rude or counterproductive elsewhere. We may not always agree (in fact, when have we ever all agreed about anything other than our passion for the music of Daniel Amos, and that on the Mother list?), but I do value everyone here and think the list would be less interesting if we lost people or if people weren't the opinionated cusses that we are. You're my brothers, and if brothers spar on occasion, that doesn't mean the blood doesn't count as a powerful link. So, Mike, no lecture from me. At this time. ; ) Johne Cook | http://raygunrevival.com | http://authorculture.blogspot.com |* * On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 10:14 AM, Mike Findlay <[email protected]>wrote: > I apologize to the list for the FU.
