      Neither do I - if it's a play on words, I thought it clever.

        I would have chosen 'official contrarian', but then I am a contrarian too.

          Me too. Well all know that status quo is messed up - the only difference is our opinions of what the new status quo should be.

            gunnut is a master jacker!
            There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "My ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."- Isaac Asimov

              Let's not forget, he's also a master debater...

                As long as he's jacking his own thread, and doesn't try to jack mine.

                If you guys want to get your threads jacked by gunnut, that's mutual consent between adults.

                I abhor the notion, but whatever floats your boat. Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks.

                I think he should be sticking his thread through the eye of a needle, but we all have priorities, and threading needles isn't necessarily on the top of our to-do lists.

                A fair warning about needles: nothing wrong with threading the eye of a needle, but a needle can really mess you up if you aren't careful with it. Like poke an eye out or something. Some needles look relatively harmless, but looks can kill.

                      I plead guilty... I realize it's bad etiquette, but sometimes the natural flow of a thread makes it less of a jack, more of a temporary sidetrack. I'll try to watch it in the future.

                      FOX news today was showing horrific scenes in Cairo and outlying cities. Does anyone know, has the violence spread to the more rural villages? Rural inhabitants tend to favor those in power, for whatever reason. Anyone know?

                        I know my effort at humor wasn't that obtuse, was it? Or, maybe my recognition of your own subtlety is lacking.

                        I'll stop trying to be funny now...

                            I think I missed it if you were trying to inject humor... your facial expressions and body language don't carry over into the text you type. ;)
