Indeed.

And their frustration becomes so obvious sometimes.
It would almost be amusing... if it weren't so sad.

They're still waiting...

... and still waiting....
Personally I am hoping it will be a unifying process for those who stay and the UPCI will quit trying to be the Bismark and join the fleet.

IMHO that would be like a battleship being concerned about a guy in a row boat with a megaphone. Its only potential harm would be to make crew members who were too immature to use earplugs lose a little sleep.

The UPCI needs to learn to network to multiply its effectiveness, but as far as sinking? That can only happen if it breaks down from within, and I cannot see that happening.

And with the exodus of those who want to abandon ship so they can fight in total isolation? Who knows perhaps we'll see a little less friendly fire.

Re: The Ever-Increasing Power of the District Boar

Just as a point of record, who exactly are "they", and if you don't know for sure, (since there were no names mentioned, I am wondering how you would?) how do you know "they" aren't having revival?

Re: The Ever-Increasing Power of the District Boar

I know several General Board members, and they are fine, godly men for the most part.

But when you accept a political office, you find yourself in the position of having to make decisions based not so much on pure princciple as on the necessity of preserving the body you serve.

That sometimes causes good men to feel forced to do things and enact policies that their consciences might not allow if it were simply them as an individual making the call.

The assumption of group identity creates a buffer zone if you will.

Sort of like the Dr. who violates his Hippocratic oath to administer a lethal injection--he can rationalize that because he is acting as a representative of the state.

Sad.

You know, and I'll have to really think back over the years, but I don't think I've ever been in a Blockbusters.

That being said, Scotty, how do you know so much about the 2fers at Blockbuster?
