Odds of something nice here.

So...
There have been smoke free days – Where folks that smoke try to go a day without.
There are black out days – Where everyone shuts the lights out for a few hours during the day.
Carpool days.
Plant a tree day.
All sorts of special “lets do a good thing” days throughout the year.

I’m wondering what the odds of this forum having a “Nothing political at all day.”
Or, maybe a “Nothing but nice things to post to one another day.” are.

Any chance?
Or, am I nuts to even think it?

Why bother wishing for something that's impossible?

It's impossible...
Tell the sun to leave the sky,
It’s just impossible...

Now I've got that stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

Gee thanks Sid.

I'm emailing you a ~30 sec. MP3 file of the result of this post.
It’s what happens when our worlds collide inside a helicopter.
Hope you like it.

And yes... It’s still stuck in my head.

I think Randy’s post (#3) probably covered it best.

I understand the “nature of the beast”.
I just thought it would be interesting to see if this forum could make it one day without anybody *****’n about the government in one way or another. I guess not.

I’ll go back to wishful thinking and just being nuts.

So long as the government keeps letting me fly, I’ll be happy nuts.

Carry on with the geez’n.

BTW, I don't disagree with the sentiment.

Which is why I really try like heck to avoid the political threads, although it does seem to find its way into virtually every thread regardless of subject.
