Pete, you’ve come to the wrong chatlist. And I fail to see how you could have read the list before this, otherwise you would know that this is NOT a community webbsite[sic] but a discussion list where people who live in Chatham County (and those who just love Chatham County) can discuss whatever Chatham-centric stuff they feel like…
Sometimes that’s news. Other times that includes sales and announcements. Sometimes just memories of times past here in Chatham County. If you think a quaint memoir about a 50 year old bar of Miss Piggy soap was cr*p and drivel, you most assuredly have not read the chatlist during election season.
The only post I’ve read today with no redeeming quality is yours, which is simply mean spirited and full of improper grammar. By the way, in general, mailing list etiquette is to read the list a while before posting the first time. That bit of etiquette is to help the new member make a valuable first post, instead of making the new member look like a fool.
