GMountain, just to clarify a previous comment o mine:  "Bitterness is a breath of morning air anymore, GM”

You said something about bitterness a couple weeks ago. I replied with something to the extent of "bitterness is a commoners state nowadays."  I, myself, get a little bitter about things that I witness everyday; e.g., once decent-natured bosses now axing employees or executing wage cuts across-the-board when the cost of everything is shooting through the roof rafters, baby!  High crimes by some of the utmost hey-diddle-diddle offices; political scheming gone awry, all those thin red lines that are being daily stirred further...& further towards (‘ightist or ‘eftist) autocracy in the WE States while ill pomp & despotism in places like theatre east & middle east & far east are moving further towards anarchy (but boll weevil, twisted n malicious anarchy); ...geez!  All very good reasons for a romantic (a sap-happy  hopeful, a regular everyday well-meant) ol' cat like MB to feel more and more bitter about what's been wicked-woefully erased from our home, Mother Earth, for sake of “what?”.  What?  What?  ..So referencing "GM" was either a nod, a plod or a dodge from your previous thread; nothing much of consequence but correspondence, earthman.  peaceQuake, MBear
