48. I'm the same person everywhere I go..

Everywhere I post. Even on fb I've always been a proud liberal and have no repub friends and very, very few religious friends. (Atheist here.) I'm simply not tolerant, so I fail at one aspect of liberalism.

Don't beat yourself up. In my book ya did the right thing.

I had to stop posting on FB years ago because I had to censor myself. Had to stop myself from attacking a wonderful guy, former DUer. I'd rather he just think I'm a minor shit for ignoring him or know I can be a major shit by attacking him.

Anyway, you live over Chilhowee Mountain and west of where I'll be moving to in Blount Co. (Walland). We live in a gloriously scenic county, don't we! Nature rocks!

Neighbor!
