What Happened to the Joy of C'es Thread?
 
Am I having a middle-aged moment or did it disappear?

Dean Romig 10-15-2009 02:21 PM

Apparantly Bruce pulled it down because of some disagreements on another thread. I don't know if there is a way to reinstate the "Joy of C's" thread but if there is a way I would encourage Bruce to put it back up.

Ya I just don,t get it one had nothing to do with the other. I thought the C thread was pretty interesting. Oh Well our loss...:banghead:

Eric Eis 10-15-2009 02:52 PM

I found it very interesting to. Sorry guys but I think Bruce got upset with what I said on the other thread and that was not my intention. Eric

Destry L. Hoffard 10-15-2009 03:09 PM

I'd say my statements were a little more inflammitory than yours Eric but I only spoke the truth and so did you. Anybody that would give that kind of advice isn't quite right in the head.

When ego outstrips experience and attitude outpaces acumen, bad things happen. You have to wonder about an accomplished, educated man who "tosses his rattle out of the pram" ,as our British friends say. Being outspoken is fine but you have to have something important and original to say. Frankly, "prairie pheasant patriotism" is just as boring to hear about (constantly) as hearing how tromping the North Woods for non-existant grouse is the acme of "The Sporting Life"...as we all know, wildfowling and pigeon shooting are...:bowdown:

I think he was more right about, when he said....

"...but you have to have something important and original to say..."

To that end - I'll leave this thread open for a bit, then close it down, as I think most of all that was important - has been said...

Best to you DLH and all...!

Ya,I'll drink to that...

Don Kaas 10-15-2009 07:23 PM

Having spent more than my fair share of decades chasing wild pheasants, grouse and woodcock, I feel justified in my sentiment...apparently, irony is not a dish best savoured by the proles (even with the crutch of an emoticon appended)...actually it is quail hunting that is the zenith of the shotgun sports...except for wildfowling and pigeon shooting that is...

Bill Murphy 10-15-2009 07:24 PM

Maybe I'll slip this one in before John closes us up. Beware of who starts a thread, because only he and the moderator can delete the entire thread. Only a wimp would erase all that is said on a thread after his readers take the time to reply and comment on his initial posts. Not all replies and comments are going to be in favor of the original posters comments. This "take my marbles and go home" mentality is very disruptive in a forum of intelligent men. As intelligent men, we can sort out what we think is good material and what we want to ignore. We don't need assistance.

Perhaps better said would be that many people favor various dishes, dependent upon their own tastes, rather than the purveyor of the meal and when we are asked to partake and accept as being the epitome of "gourmet".

Force feeding only is enjoyable when we enjoy the same.

Various flavors are the constructs of a memorable meal for all.
