Edg, Darlin' you know I love you. I haven't had time to get into the fray here, though I would have loved to get into a scratching and hair-pulling tussle with Judy about that over-the-top stupid test she posted in which all of Hill's and all of Judy's poison is projected onto Obama, but I just don't have time. I'm preparing to move my household to Minnesota, I'm preparing an art exhibit, and a new teacher from Taiwan is thinking about joining our team--she says she's been looking for me for two years. And I'm finishing a memoir about that famously unbelievable life I've lived so far. I've got a life, you see. I think you're right in your critique of this forum. You may also be right about Judy's more than usual poison-dripping pen as well, but, to me, she's just being normally snarky. That's who she is and that's all she is. If there is another Judy, I haven't met her, though I may have caught a brief glimpse when she was talking to Curtis about music.
