You can hate me or you can mock me.  All the same to me.  I've already seen progress with you, and that makes me happy.

If all y'all already knew how to discuss things with the goal of understanding as opposed to venting, I would have no ulterior motive here at all.  I might become a lurker.  But you keep me coming back for more.

Anybody out there remember when Happy Days was the best show on TV.  Then, after ~ 8 season or so, they ran out of ideas and started bringing on additional characters  culminating when Fonzie attempted a water ski jump over a shark?  The show went downhill from there and the term Jump the Shark was derived for things that hit its peak and was on the downward slide.

Me thinks we've jumped the shark here .....
