Don't have time to watch daytime tv..........even if they are in Banff. I was in Banff last October at a conference, had a great time, beautiful place to visit.........Gumby, you should go and see what you are missing out on. Not only could you visit a beautiful area but you could get yourself a touque, a pair of ginch or long johns with a picture of a moose on the bum.

Ya'll act like ya'll might have had a "toke" on a funny smelling plant. Thought I'd add a wee bit of American word play.

Hmm, could add a wee pocket inside the tocque--for a stash.
--Just in case one wants a toke in their tocque.

Either I have double vision (again) or the Live w/Kelly show misspelled the name by inserting an "M" in their show title. Which is why I said

There was no CWD today, so I will take this opportunity to introduce an English word.

introspection
[in-truh-spek-shuhn]  
in·tro·spec·tion
   [in-truh-spek-shuhn] Show IPA
noun
1.
observation or examination of one's own mental and emotional state, mental processes, etc.; the act of looking within oneself.
Origin:
1670–80; < Latin intrōspect ( us ), past participle of intrōspicere to look within (equivalent to intrō- intro- + spec ( ere ) to look + -tus past participle suffix) + -ion

The idea is suggesting that one should use introspection to find out why this topic - or others - bother you. That should bring you to the real reason you feel the way you do, instead of wrestling with it.

Of course that is only necessary if you seek Self-Actualization. But that is two words - Some may count three.
