This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Yes, thank you , Irish Gypsy. You are appreciated. by ndrooter
I love the idea of a butterfly garden near the children's playground on campus. Our grandchildren have played there when on campus for games , Easter or weddings. It is a very nice spot and one that will be used for a long time to come by children, justing having fun , as Kimi played so many ways when she was well enough. It would keep her memory in a happy place. Let us know when contributions are needed for whatever is decided. Thanks for sending the flowers, too, I saw your post about the services too late .
