Linda, you've finally found your writing subject "niche"! Please, continue writing about family, and quilting-maybe all of those silly notions about social issues and politics will just go away, and be replaced by the potpourri in your desk drawer...
Happy Holidays to the Matriarchs!

"If you don't like her opinion, just don't read it."
No. You don't get to dictate your opinions as rules to other people, thanks anyway.
"At least she puts her real name and picture by her thoughts."
Sure thing Rubidoux Falcon...that IS your real name, right?
"Do you see how I've disagreed with your approach, without saying anything cruel or mean?"
Other than denigrating those who use psuedonyms, yourself included?
Yes, I saw. ;)

Linda, too bad ther isn't a patch that would fit over your mouthy opinions. By the way, where were you able to find your "old fashioned" plastic surgeon? I didn't know they had face lift technology in the old days.

If you don't like her opinion, just don't read it. At least she puts her real name and picture by her thoughts. I think that if you are going to stay anonymous, then you can't be mean. You can have disagreements and intellectual debate, but the attempt to be mean and rude ought to come with sharing your identity.
That way, I know who to avoid at the supermarket.
Do you see how I've disagreed with your approach, without saying anything cruel or mean? It's easy, really.

Samkat, of course she won't...but she'll pray for them instead. ;)

Linda: Would your devine hand reach out to you and suggest you take in one or more of the 14,800 unwanted children in CPS custody and provide the love and nourishment they are craving not only for the holidays but for the long term? Pass along this suggestion to all of your friends and relatives while you are at it.
