partypup – you aren’t paying attention to my posts in general – I am one of the gloomiest posters on this board

I try not to say things like, “we’re all fucking doomed…”[/quote]

Then we have something in common, 4Plex. I think that’s pretty clear from my earlier post in this chain:

“I don’t believe in an apocalypse, and I don’t believe the people in this country are all doomed to die and fail. I think our priorities are about to be re-adjusted on a massive scale, and some may see that as apocalyptic. I just see it as “change you can believe in”.

Does that really sound like I think we’re all doomed? Trust me, if I thought we were due for an apocalypse the last thing I would be doing is spending my valuable, remaining pre-apocalyptic years pushing paper as a lawyer!

That’s unfortunate, but if people choose to stop thinking that’s their problem – it’s not my concern.
