In reply to the discussion: Video games with guns are a problem, [View all]KY_EnviroGuy
(14,488 posts)37. NC, I really miss those good 'ole days when....
a friend and I could sit for long periods of time and discuss almost any issue in depth as gentlemen (and/or ladies) and without a single word in anger or spite, and ZERO politics mentioned. Just a smooth, back-and-forth flow.
That was the best medicine ever for the heart, mind, and spirit.
By the way, two of my very best friends in my lifetime with whom I used to carry on those sorts of talks with (often over beers back in those days) were from NC - one mineralogist (UNC grad, now deceased) and a lady from Charlotte (feeble but still kicking at 72 and smart as a tack). Very broad base of knowledge between us made for a lot of good chats.
Thanks for your kind thoughts and understanding......
