Oh dear...was your post a rant?

I forgot...rants are very useful!

But, for them to be very useful, no one must give ANY advice...just cheer when you do a good one.

AND, rants must be time-limited.

You, anyone, are limited to fifteen minutes a go...lest anyone gets carried away.

So, if you are ranting, and, if you are within the fifteen minute limit, ignore all of what I said...except the part about 'Frank the Conqueror', okay?

And, tell us when you are in rant mode, okay?

Then we'll cheer until we all fall on our sofas in laughter...okay?

There is more than one way to skin a cat. (Isn't that the MOST awful old saw you ever heard???)

Now, be sure NOT to smile while you rant. It spoils the effect, dreadfully. I mean, how the heck can we giggle when you are grinning widely, as you say the AWFULNESS of it all?
