I usually trim a quoted post but your comments bear repeating.
The "Look At ME!!!" dynamic is running full blast.
This Forum has become more noise than content since the debacle started.
I'm with patchick, group all the attention grabbing commentators in the press into one butt ugly thread and move on to Patriots FOOTBALL!

Well, this was my attempt to "do something"! Other suggestions most welcome.
