I see plenty of posts about superstition...on this forum.

If we are going to start drawing lines...we can start there.


So...let's not draw any lines.

posting when I first came back on here went great. You good people liked them so much to the amazing tune of

You may laugh at my beer being colored water but it works for me. These are for you brother.
Cheers and beers for you too and I hope to this from you again.
And I implore you not to be run off, too many members here are behind you.
Graham, hear me out and all you other Hoggers too. This much more than Graham's problem but a bigger problem we see destroying our world and now effecting our forum. Depending on where you live, here in America it has gotten completely stupid. So since this forums admin appears to be in the states here, ??? well.
Do not let this defeat you.

To be honest I find Graham's posts neither offensive nor funny. So I tend to not reading posts by him but I think threaten to ban him is not the right things to do. I think the admins should let people post what they want.

These jokes are all clean and funny, a very few, esp. illustrated ones you put up, were questionable but not extreme.
And not the reason for your warnings etc. Admin put up his warnings to you and I read them. The problem was the ones that were POLITICAL. Politics is strictly limited to the Attic only.

I like most of the jokes you post, though you seem to be working overtime at it the short time you have been back. Therefore, I am of the assumption I would like you if we met in person. And, yes, I do know what extreme jokes, stories and cussing are. I, too, served 3 years in the military. US Army March 66 to Jan 69, 2 years, 2 months, 2 days assigned to the Vietnam combat zone. When I returned with only 80 days left of my enlistment, it wasn't worth it to assign me to a new unit, so they assigned me to go home and be on "stand-by" for a call if I was needed somewhere. The first of April my final papers releasing me from active duty came in the mail, and I was assigned to the "Inactive Reserves", and never got a phone call or letter, then after a few years I got my final discharge papers in the mail.
But that oath of enlistment didn't have any expiration date on it. I have always considered myself available to serve in some great national emergency. Even if at my age all I can do is answer a phone or work a radio.

This is an open apology from me to the Admin. I'm afraid I got caught up in the hype and "mob" mentality yesterday concerning our friend Graham Thurkill. True, I (a lot of us actually) really enjoyed Graham's posts and felt his pain when he told us that he received "threats" from Admin. While we all assumed (at least I did) that he was being treated unfairly, he had been warned on five occasions by Admin to "cool it" with the political posts. And THAT is the real issue, not his jokes. So, as it turns out, I pursued this without knowing all of the facts. As much as I like and enjoy Graham, I'm afraid he must abide by the rules that have been set up, like everyone else. I guess it's plain to see why I spent 40 years in the USPS and not as a Defense Attorney. I didn't have any of Admins facts when I went off half -cocked yesterday. I've cooled down and seen the error of my ways. I hope my fellow hoggers see that this really isn't Admin's fault as they warned Graham many times to no avail. Sorry to see you go Graham (I truly am), but rules are rules. If you could curb the political banter and stick with your funny "stuff", you'd always be welcomed. "Cheers and Beers"

Well...one squibble...a small one.

ADMIN said folks come to forum to get away from politics.

That's just an assumption.

One might turn it around and say chit chat is especially adept at handling politics...how soft is everyone today?
Butch up...life is hard...it's a blood bath in case no one has noticed.

Politics...wouldn't it be a nice change from todays insanity...and just go to chit chat...and speak our minds...free speech.

Political correctness is a control mechanism.

Citizens should not speak like politicians do...holy smokes...what a concept.

If you let politicians control daily conversations...it's already over.

I would suggest a change in attitude on this forum by ADMIN.

Set up a separate category ... no attic ... just free speech.

Say what you wish to...but you better be able to back it up.

Perhaps that is why there is censorship...one side is woefully unable to prove what they say.

Again...butch up...if you cannot reinforce what you say honestly...time to change your mind.

No one forces anyone to open threads...

Will miss you. Always a bright spot in my day. I served several times with the USA Army on manuevers with the British (and French) as a photograper at Wolfenbutel in the 60's.

Graham mentioned he was in the ‘Territorials’. The Territorials were a British system (which we also had in NZ being part of the Commonwealth I suppose). The Territorials were a branch of the Army that only provided services in the UK, not overseas and were not qualified to go in to a war zone. Mainly helped out in times of local disasters etc.
Sort of a volunteer force I suppose.
I was in the Territorials here in NZ for a few years after leaving school and being in the army cadets at school. Never got to fire a gun and the training was pretty boring, a lot of marching and classroom stuff. We did get to go out on search and rescues when people got lost in the bush, but always accompanied by a police officer. If we discovered anyone deceased we weren’t allowed to approach the ‘body’. That was for the police at that stage and we were only required then to stretcher the deceased out to the road. Regretfully I was in several parties when a body was discovered.

Graham obviously has fond memories of his ‘service’, but it wouldn’t have been such that it compared to the service that US soldiers experienced.
