Apologies. After reading your reply, I'm having difficulty calling it
a 'great post'; though I do take this seriously. There is some eating
of words in a couple of assumptions; along with the thought of writing
something like that with few actual facts, and towards a standard in a
news group I do enjoy.

Though Shakespeare is not a favorite, I did enjoy your follow-up.

I live where palm trees grow quite easily, among other things. It's
at a different border than the one near you; its a different region
entirely. The weather's warmer than Puget Sound, but I don't think
you would enjoy it. We get along by political necessity, and that is
not a comfortable feeling. I really don't want those circumstances to
grow. But at least it's temporary, in my case.



Some people hear a person say something that they disagree with, and they
make all kinds of assumptions about him: where he lives, his background,
what he likes and dislikes. People do that with me all the time; sometimes I
think the only exercise they get is jumping to conclusions. I have been
variously called a communist, a fascist, a right wing Christian
fundamentalist, uneducated, someone who has never traveled outside the US, a
racial bigot and a homophobe. I am none of those things. When people make
those kinds of conclusions I think it says a lot more about them than it
does about me.

I have been all over the world. We lived in the Philippines for two years
while I was in the Air Force. Like everything else you may have thought you
knew about me, you have no idea what kind of weather I like or not like.

But I still don't like frost on my wings.
