"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Unless P-C and Hec actually do plan to go sleuthing in WI

Not until he puts on the Robin suit.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

City Hall! Public records!

I've been watching too many movies.

Not until he puts on the Robin suit.

I'm not satisfying your costume fetish, bub.

What is even happening?

Is that the same thing as the Scrappy-Is-Wise/Hawt T-shirt?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

There are ways to lookup who owns certain properties.

There are, but the one I tried, which should include WI, came up empty.

Mostly lurking...

Can I raise a new concern?

I'm really scared this is gonna divide us.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I'm with you, vw. I have been trying to think of a soothing, logical middle of the road post this morning, and I have come up with nothing. The long and short of it is that I am afraid there is no way to satisfy the desire of some to have closure with the desire of others to think the best of people. And as those aren't really opposing desires, I think it is hard to talk people who are of one way of thinking into the other way.

Whatever it is, just say it, vw.

Oh, no. That *was* my concern, Cindy.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

vw honey, I don't think so. We've been through those wars before, and I think we know where the land mines are this time. We've also been exceptionally polite to each other, backed off and let the other person say their piece, and agreed to disagree. I think it's going to be fine, as long as we remember to play nice.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I agree with Beverly. Disagreement is not the end of a relationship. In this case, I see people stating their case while really listening to each other and giving each other room. It's an admirable thing.
