It all boils down to this very simple premise, you cannot legislate the random and sick thoughts of some of the twisted human beings walking this earth.

We can debate it all day long, but it just cannot be done.

With that said, we will continue to try.

I have lost all enjoyment participating in discussions on this website thanks to people like you Jeremy, Paul, Wade and Troy. I used to look forward to coming to this site, share thoughts, opinions, but after this ganging up against me ... fuck you guys and thanks for making a difficult time of year ... even worse by ruining my hobby.

I don't know where Paul, Wade and Troy play in this, but certainly none of them ever intended on ruining your hobby. Nor have I. I know you do far more for the site than I ever will, but this is what I enjoy as well (loggin in, reading some Packer garbage, bantering with DakotaT, 93z, you, etc). I mean what I said, but that doesn't mean I won't back off if that's what you want. You are the 'bossman', the owner and Moderator. Just say it and I'll back off. I'll hate doing it, but I will out of respect for you and the work you've done here.

Anyone ever notice that the only threads that reach 15 to 20 pages are the ones where bickering, bantering, and abuse are prevelent? Personally, it does not bother me in the least to be called names or have my intelligence denigrated - that's when I know I've got my advesary right where I want him. The mistake I make is assuming other peoples feelings don't get hurt either. So that would be what I would apologize for.

Does anyone belong NRA anymore?

I don't know that I know one under the age of mid 50's or older.

All I'll say is I missed Kevin in GameDay Chat this week. Hope everything's OK, and hope he's back soon.

I greatly appreciate this place he's provided us to hang out, and would hope he enjoyed running PackersHome as much as I do hanging out here.

Even in the best of times Christmas is stressful - And with all the violence over the last few weeks and the uncertainty of the fiscal cliff and what it means for our finances and retirements, it's that much harder to keep a positive attitude. Personally, I've crammed buying a house (in 20 days, frantic), closing on the 19th, work, 2 1/2 days with my parents with a 5 1/2 hour drive there in a mini-blizzard and 3 1/2 hour drive back, and packing for the move all in so far this month. I work today but we're leaving either tonight or tomorrow morning for my in-laws (2 1/2 hour drive in ideal conditions), driving up to her uncles on friday which is another 3 1/2 hours away, then all the way back either sunday morning (with a stopover for the game at the in-laws) or all at once saturday night. Then I get to come back and move the next day (31st) and host my brother for 2 days.

Christmas is hard, and draining, and stressful. I'm blessed to have parents that have not divorced and in-laws that have not divorced, I can't imagine cramming another two Christmases in and keeping my sanity. But many people need to deal with that. I don't know that much about Kevin's personal life but I can think of a handful of reasons to be stressed out this time of year - we can give halfhearted non-apologies about offending him but the fact of the matter is, we can be dicks to eachother quite often and we're all just one or two crises away from not being able to take it in stride. Lord knows I'm guilty, at the very least I hope we can leave our more heated rage and language for the sorry souls to the homeland's east and west.

Merry Christmas and stuff.

Kevin is going to be just fine, sometimes a guy just needs some away time, unfortunately when my time comes it's mandatory. I may be a tad guilty of going overboard [grin1], but I also think if Kevin is going to banter - then his executive privilege should also be waived.

Porforis, you're one of my favorite bitches. My politics use to be pretty close to what you currently believe, I just have had an awakening. Merry Christmas buddy, and congratulations on the house - I hope you bought a fixer upper so you learn about wiring, plumbing, sheet rock, window and door framing, shingling etc.

It was a recently restored house that was a complete disaster when it forclosed several years back, 90% of it is new but there's enough things that need patching here or there that I'll still have the opportunity to learn. It's got aluminum siding and there's corners I'll need to repair in the spring, some of the siding on the garage is bent back and I'll need to fix that (preferably yet this year) and I'll need to tear up a little bit of carpet on the basement stairs to replace a somewhat broken step (Supporting it with 2x4s in the meantime, there's already a 2x2 nailed underneath it for some support). Move-in ready so I'm not completely overwhelmed when I walk in the door but still enough stuff to force me to learn how to be handy.

Merry Christmas to you too.
