I honestly wasn’t trying to hit the bee’s nest with a shovel between commenters here. I was just sharing my observations from last night. Honestly, I don’t expect many to agree with me. I’ve pointed out here that I beat to my own drum and the music in my head is much different than others, which explains why I dance so funny. LOL! What I’m trying to say is I see things from a perspective that many don’t. Quirky? Maybe. Annoying? Yes! LOL</p> I appreciate your response too, Waccamaw.
