Most all have tendencies to gravitate to one column or the other----some abuse the privilege and become mired in their debauchery as fans of the purple.

I usually introduce myself as "long time suffering fan"

Welcome Czar. Since you're a long-time listener, maybe you could tell us your observations about "the crowd" here?

Hello all. As some know, was at one time a pretty active member here (back to purple thoughts n the beginings of the longship). Remember many very fondly. For many reasons, chief of which was a growing mistrust of a in my mind a dangerous online element,  caused my withdrawal from this and other online interactions. But admit regrets and frankly have missed many of you.
 Covid has hit me hard. Indirectly caused a need fot residence change. Lost a job. Recently lost a brother........
Decided to say "hey" to some old friends.

Not sure where that goes but a wise man once opined "A Viking's home is wherever he lands".

Welcome back Czar. Pull up a chair. Sorry for what you’ve been through. Had some rough times on my end too and I kinda pulled back as well. But, hey, here we are! Glad you are here too.
