As I said, I very selectively read posts. One would take your words to be completely in earnest without having read all the postings. Rick used to ban people for a time from this group and I've just recently starting selectively reading it. So a time out seemed an entirely righteous step forward in what appears me to be sudden civility in FFL. Tongue and cheek is when you say something in a deadpan matter while you throw out clues that you're joking or people know you must be joking. Not having read all of the posts perhaps I should not have chimed in. But frankly, I've lost fear, water cannot quench me nor fire burn me and frankly unless called on it, I'll chime in wherever I go unless the spies are about. I do belong to other groups which actually do have timeouts for members. I'm not going to say my bad, cause I ain't bad and right now I'm not certain I do bad things. It's really hard to stomp on yourself or be disrespectful to yourself when all is yourself and that's the way I see things right now.
