One can always find offense. How about one extending the benefit of the doubt?

Sometimes, I think I am still in high school with all the gossiping, pm'ing, "did you see what so and so said/did..", and the people jumping on the bandwagon type garbage.
I agree with you. Nothing amazes & often irks me more than the few
who always read controversial opinions in the dog house & feign shock
and horror that someone expresses that opinion.Nobody said anything rude
or uncalled for to or about Popcorn bird. She has the ability to speak for
herself & does that very well. I, for one, always welcome her comments on
any subject.I most times think of PCB as older & more worldly wise than her
she is. My fault entirely.I love a good exchange of ideas & shared opinions.
