I didn’t mean to disparage people from California or CPF. I’m sure there are great people residing, so to speak, in each. I only meant that DBSAR’s thread would have been laughed off in the older version of BLF where fun was almost as important as the flashlights. And given what ImA4Wheelr, O-L, Dangerous, and WarHawk posted, I know that spark still lingers a little.
And, Bort, my friend, I’ve seen you be very clever and entertaining while I lurk in the shadows in threads all up and down this forum.
Anyway, I guess I was just feeling nostalgic. At the end of the day, I guess no matter what, we’ll always have Paris.
It does not look very healthy, its cracked, split, weathered and has many knots. In addition its not very straight and all vertical surfaces are curved which does not facilitate secure attachment of boards.
Thats a lot of posts. I dont know if I trust myself with that many. Does anyone know where the mailman is. Apparently hes good with the post though he does lose them to.
I'm not sure it was over-moderation, the idea of BLF is that it should be no problem if watched at by the whole family. There were a few members who got carried away with cheeky posts about blonde girls and such which IMO was not that big a deal at first but it kept going on, on the edge of rude I think, and certainly unpolite towards DBSAR who had an honest and nice flashlight related question in the OP.
No worries whatsoever. I merely wished to point out that people move around and that places everywhere (including Ca) have been affected by outsiders moving in. Lots of places have changed for the worse and Ca gets quite a bit of blame from other states for exporting people when it’s being flooded by émigrés. The small town feel is harder to come by everywhere. Simple courtesy is being squeezed by crowding.
Whenever I post something like “food fight” it’s an effort to introduce levity into situations that seem too serious but I lack the gift of humour to do that well.
