Agreed Cathy and preferably down the middle of a busy interstate highway.
I imagine that, when you composed and posted your drivel, Reminder that you did not expect me to take your comments lying down; and I have now had time to reflect on your outburst,which I personally found to be deeply offensive and altogether inappropriate
and wish to thank those friends who responded in my defence.
Firstly though I must say that your refusal, despite previous strong urgings to do the decent thing and register here, has three disadvantages for us all
1. I am unable to respond to you in a private message so I am forced to respond to your complaints in public
2. You are unable to edit your postings and unless you enlist the aid af the official moderator you cannot delete them.Nor can we check your profile to see who you are
3. unregistered you are unable to preview your posting and thus miss the chance to reflect and correct what you have blathered.
I am also trying to be very conscious that many items are better posted to the "small talk" forum as indeed in reality was your posting castigating me.
I have nevertheless searched the forums for the anomymouse meaningless screenname you have usually been posting as. And found that you obviously have a penchant/predilection over the word " pretentious" as you once posted
"I don't know what's worse....being pretentious, or judgmental."
I had prepared a strong riposte but think I will given you a chance to reconsider what you wrote; (and if you have a mind to repost with some sort of apology) similar but not limited to how you previously
tried after prompting to apologise after a rebuke to a previous criticism of one of my postings in an earlier topic at:-
http://www.corfid.com/ubb/ultimatebb...=003235#000026
where you deigned to say:-
"You're right Bill W. What was I thinking?"
I use pictures that I consider relevant because I strongly believe that a picture is worth a thousand words and as due to a stroke I am forced to type all my contributions using my right hand's index finger only, anything that speeds up the process is welcome.

There is also a superb Lightfoot video from last year of Gord performing my favo(u)rite song 'Inspiration Lady" from his most recent album "Harmony" at his record company web site:-
