THE OLD CURMUDGEON RELENTS

LFC and John Rapko have given me the Sally Field moment that we all secretly crave. Forget about my threat to ban comments. Even Marc Susselman aka AA is welcome here, though please Marc, in moderation.

Ha, ha.


Prof. Wolf, I will try, I will sincerely, earnestly try.

Thank you for the reprieve.

And to show my good fait, I will drop the pseudonym.

Very funny. I am glad about your decision Professor. I look forward to more posts and thank you for the patience.

Yes, I was convinced he would do it...at least for a time. If truth be told I think it is our Sally Field moment. Ha!

My apologies if you’re already aware of these. rm

PS. Since you're not dropping the Comments, might I suggest a little bit more intervention on your part to keep things on track.
