Is it the heat? or a full moon?

Is it me, or has anyone else noticed threads being closed and talk of people being banned floated freely about. I count three threads closed and one or two deleted totally in the last few days. Archie Bunker and the Meathead would be proud. IMHO.

Just random thoughts.

I've been banned myself, and more than one or two times. If we met each other in person we would probably be surprised, the internet offers such a one sided view of people.

I banned myself for being a nut and not having a life. After spending 11 years studying the Bhagavad Gita in the Himalayas and working with the starving cripple untouchable orphans of Bombay, I came back as a different person and am no longer nutty and I have a life. I am now working on a cure for cancer and a new hydrogeothermalsolaraeolian energy source and I'm a double-nought spy.

Yeah, that's true. I think we all have a lot more in common but we harp on the differences.

If we all got together somewhere I bet we'd be surprised at who turned out to be best friends with who.

Maybe we'd all end up holding hands around a campfire singing 'Kumbiyah.'

Your Kharma from driving around with a dead pussy in the back of your Datsun has done this oh wise master of the "Ena Ghada Navida Baby" . I think the band "Spirit" did that song.

Ralph- More like the campfire scene from Mel Brooks "Blazing saddles."

We should have a engine blow contest, like they do at VW meets.

Can any of us afford to do that?

I'm guessing that "hydrogeothermalsolaraeolian" is a new catchword for d'Lysergic acid diethylamide.

Well, not a Mercedes engine. Even a old lawnmower can be used.
