    Seeing the people who have like the posts, other than mine, I think it is time for me to go. Please delete my account. I tried but could not figure out how to do so in the settlings.

    No can do, Mike.  As in, I don’t really think it’s possible and I also don’t want to.  If you want to take a break, short, long, or otherwise from this place you are free to do so as an exercise of your free will.  But I won’t be the thing that prevents you from coming back.  That seems like the exact opposite of how I feel about this.  It also feels very much like revisionist history and would likely break/ruin quite a few good threads around here.  Jacob did it once and it was awful.  

    I know this has affected you deeply, Mike.  And just so we’re clear, I liked your earlier post because I agree, you’ve always been a great part of this community and incredibly generous with your support. 

    @skullguise - thanks for taking the time to write your response.

    Wow, not a single like, not a single comment. Why am I not surprised. 

    I'm not sure why you are or are not surprised Mike.  I don't know enough to comment significantly, so I don't.  I can't like something as horrible and tragic as all of what is going on in Israel these days.  My sister in law is Jewish. Our kids' best friends are Jewish.  Does that matter?  Not to me.  They are great people, regardless of religion, that's what I know. 

    As for what you expected from HC I don't know what to think about that comment either.  I think you know that ultimately this is one of the most compassionate and caring corners of the internet.  Did it spring into action to support your post? I guess not. But I'm not sure how it could have either.  What I do know is that this place has rallied unlike any other to support its friends, time and time again.  I think this is a good place, one largely free of hate.  But it remains imperfect, like everything else in life.

    Put me in the minority.  I like the face of it a lot, the form factor is decidedly odd but considering it costs what some here would comfortably pay for a bracelet/strap I say why not?

    Drank almost none of what I made last year, sadly.  So I'll find someway to celebrate Matt this holiday season but unlikely to make 'nog as I'm the only one who will drink it and have not been drinking much lately at all.

    Made some QOL adjustments to the bomb shelter/home office.  It's seen some use these past few days and my wife and daughter were getting tired of sitting on the ground while I luxuriated in a herman miller desk chair.

    Please stay safe.  The pictures are horrific.
