Haha! Yes, I laugh so you can laugh too! I have a bad reputation here for saying, "I'm outa here!"

Well, I'm outa here. My member ship runs out in exactly two weeks and I've opted out of renewal.

I'm only posting this embarrassingly self-centered appearing post so as to give any of you a chance to keep in touch a heads up. If you would like to keep in touch by FB or email or, better yet, by cards and letter, send me a PM and I'll give you my mailing info.

Thanks for all this lively discussion.

Much as this may seem impossible at this point, please try to stop hating each other.

Oh, and please keep the lounge well stocked and the great music there going strong. Thanks!

    Love you Brian, I will miss you around here, but I like FB because we can see into each other's lives in a different way.

    After 18,619 posts you are just gonna leave? I don't see it. You would need rehab to kick this habit!

    You will be missed.
    Your insight and opinion was always worth reading.
    You sure you want to opt out?
    Do you have a low member number?
    Might be worth the $20 to keep it active.

    Good luck, shalom, and namaste'

    I'm not going anywhere, but my name is Levi Gambs if anybody wants to look me up on the book.
    I am friends with B Lux and Scott Lacey, and it is good to see people's lives and know how many good people are out there keeping their chins up and trucking along. B shares awesome posts and petitions and Scott has a hell of a beautiful family.

    That's too bad Brian. How come you're not renewing? Not using your membership benefits enough for it to be worth it?
    See you on FB. :)

    You'll be missed, Brian! The Train's Lounge Car will remain your legacy. Hope you decide to come back after a brief hiatus.

    No matter differing views, always wishing you well, B (and...mind at peace within yourself).

    I'm not renewing because a) I don't follow the band or listen to them much these days and b) (especially b) I can't read any more of this hate talk between the two sides. I'm becoming part of the problem, not part of the solution. And I think we will end up in civil war. I can't deal with that. I'm too old to fight.

    Yes, keep in touch on FB!

    Good riddance. Your thread that's now been closed was full of hate and started with you. Get over yourself, you're not that important.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    I'm not on fb (I'm not a 10 year old girl) but don't you read the hate there? Are you quiting fb too?

    Regardless I've read your posts on here for years and overall you seem like a very solid person. Good luck to you.

    I only read FB because some people I know only keep in touch that way. That kind of sucks but, oh well.

    Thanks for calling my stuff bs. Cute.

    Perhaps you would have been better off waiting until the day your membership actually expires before posting this Brian. :lol:;)
