    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. :)

    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!
    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 bs 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.
    Haha sorry I didn't mean it that way i just meant I read your posts..ill revise.

    Wasn't a fan of your post that was closed either, but i understand the anger...i let emotions get the best of myself as well... when Trump won and with the help of a good buzz came on here and posted with glee that HRC lost...then it sunk it that this was one of the worst campaign seasons i have ever seen and did anyone actually win?

    best of luck to you i was more an observer over the years on the AMT and just started to participate the past year or so on here so didn't get to interact much, but i sincerity wish the best to you and anyone on here really regardless of political views
  • Brian, I'm sorry that there is not enough comic relief to balance this forum. For some reason, Jason P decided to join the dark (serious) side of AMT and although people are doubling their efforts (thank you Bentleyspop and smellyman), AMT may never recover. I'm sorry we failed you Brian, you will be missed. Please reconsider. Remember National Tequila Day to kept it holy.

    Thanks so much, OSG. You're awesome. None of you failed me- certainly not you- I failed myself. I've lost hope, become bitter and am tired and must retreat.

    Peace and love.

    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!

    Best of luck ... you're positive input and outlook will be missed around here, especially in some great discussions...

    Thanks McGruff. We've had our disagreements but I respect you're well considered thoughts and sincerity. You're a good man.

    Brian, I always appreciated that your posts frequently represented your ability to try and look at things all the way around....and respect the opinions of others. Laughed like hell at the post that got shut down and although I didn't agree with everything in it, I love your passion and belief and understood that it came from being angry.

    A big thank you the PM sharing in the past and for being the best 'you' that you can be. I'm not on FaceBook but I hope you get more out of that than you currently are getting from here.

    Pass the mic, my friend, hope that there will be others to pick up your message.

    I don't like me when I'm that pissed off but this is one of those times I said what I had to say. Trump fans don't seem to recognize the shit storm this election is leading to and the harm to bully victims and the planet.
