This may be the first time that I have to move posts "from" the off-topic thread to their own thread...

They were too on-topic for the off-topic thread??

I hope that's not a real band name.

A couple of weeks ago when we had a gay pride fest here, I saw a guy in this pink T-shirt:

Isn't that the logo for the entire genre, or just the woodwind section?

You'll kill yourself dividing up the death metal, sooted pot metal, Cartoon Studs of the early sixties, and "woodwinds for $200, Bob" into cogent discussion points.

Keep trying, you'll get there!

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.

What happens if I take both?

I'm neutral on rainbows. They're pretty to look at. I'd love to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Am I off-topic again? What do you plan to do with me? Be gentle, please!

Donna I will try to offer some explanation. One of the great things about a message board like this is that you can keep threads grouped together by topic which makes it easier for a new member to search for and find information. Around here conversations stray off topic quite often and sometimes do not steer back to the main topic. I try to let them flow organically and hope that they come back around but sometimes they need a little intervention and I may move the off topic posts to this thread. I try not to direct the conversation but I don't always do a great job of it. Anyway hang loose and see where the discussion goes...hope this helps.

Thanks, TOO! I was just trying to have a little fun. Nothing serious was meant when I asked if I was off-topic. This IS where off-topic conversations are allowed, after all. You have a mammoth task herding all these cats and you do a mighty fine job of it. It's greatly appreciated.

Getting ready for LOCKN' has me drinking a lot more. I try to have no more than 2 adult beverages in a single day. I'm going over my limit to 2 1/2 - 3 drinks in a single day the past few days. At this rate, I'll be hung over for the entire festival 29 days from now. It's possible I'm becoming an alcoholic.

Alcoholic and Alcohol Enthusiast are not the same thing. Also keep in mind that rehab is for quitters.
