Have you posted a thread that sucked?
Judging from the lack of responses that I usually get, I'm guessing that I do that every damn time.

3. Yes, a couple that sank like a rock, and still a couple that got great response

I think it all depends on who is on at the time. I wouldn't take it personally.

I was surprised, though, that a thread I started on the movie "Bobbie" several weeks ago went to shit, on a liberal website. Go figure?

I do appreciate your posts and sense of humor, even if I don't always respond.

31. Thank goodness !
I figure its kind of like when I talk to myself and answer my own questions; besides, if I had actually killed this thread I would have been forced to get up and look seriously at the lengthy "honey-do" list my wife left me today... :D

I have particularly bad luck in the lounge. My bread and butter is the R/T forum, where I can usually count on at least 20 responses.
