Damn Canadians. Where've you been?

Whoa, you weren't taken in by the big brother, were you, Socratoad?. Welcome back to Clipmarks.

Just what IS the "right" wing?
Anything that isn't currently popular leftism?
Widen your scope.
Be neither.
Condemn neither, but be skeptical of both.
Aren't the real pranksters pulling both strings and laughing at anyone who falls for the game?

G'day Toad ol' buddy! Great to see you again!

I luv's my toad!

Brilliant!

I missed you. Had to go find my own quotes. Just glad you are back. And don't go scaring us anymore.

Hey! Welcome back!

Greedy people die absolutely alone. The right/ left wing description of politics is both obsolete, and for the sake of politicians. The distinction between the ideology of the two wings, disappears when it hits reality. Who suffered more - those in a Gulag, or those in Auschwitz ?
There those that have brothers, and those who have no-one but themselves. Politics doesn't need wings. It needs a rocket up it. 'Big Brother' watching is not the problem. We need to watch Big Brother and nail it.
On a lighter note. socratoad,good to see you back. Every hammer helps

davboz

you eaten mushrooms lately? you used to be so right wing...

*LOL*

Yup, I must appear to ne among the greatest of ingrates of all time .... the heartfelt words welcoming me back to the fold here at Clipmarks .... And all those enchanted little toads, then nothing but silence from this old curmudgeon. I do have a couple of reasonable excuses though:
This past spring and summer were to quote the late Erma Bombeck, "One damn thing after another". First several mini-strokes, followed by a heart attack.

After a couple of rather magical procedures I have been boucing

oops, another screw-up .... creeping back..

So I posted that quotation to test the waters, so to speak. Alas my typing arm and hand quit functioning. A pinched nerve this time.. I'm trying though ....some might say very trying :

!

Glad to see that you are still trying, Socratoad! Very trying, at times.. Welcome back.

As pokkets so eloquently stated:

Every hammer helps

Haha, you've always been *very trying* Soc, just in other ways. *LOL* Well, you *old curmudgeon*, us little toads love you anyway, so just keep hammering away and get better soon buddy.

"When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before." - Jacob Riis

Sorry to hear of your travails, Toad. VERY glad to have you back!

You will build your muscles keeping up with clipmarks nowadays, Welcome back!

Glad to hear you are doing better, Socratoad. Welcome back!

Can I just say that I love your icon.

I knew we had good reason to worry about you. Glad you are back! Hope you are feeling better now.

Thanks Dorine, and thanks to all of you. I'm not ready for the Olympics just yet, but I am feeling better
