Its the holidays, can we just lighten up. . .

Twitter and Tweet
I love Twitter. I hate Twitter. I love Twitter. I hate Twi….I know. I sound a bit confused in my base emotions surrounding this global social sparring arena, and I am. My relationship with the Twitter platform, reminds me of a couple bad relationships I’ve had in my life. I hate you, I love you, I apparently, “love to hate you”. There is something to be said about high adrenaline. However it is usually like placing a pile of papers on a table and turning on a fan. I forgot who said that, but I think it is applicable.
Commitment
To all of the clear thinking, intelligent, brilliant folks that hope for a more tolerant and inclusive world, I love tossing tweets back and forth, and I love you all. So many caring and committed individuals wanting to do everything they can do, to advance society and humanity.
Conversely
The ‘I hate’ side of me, comes out when somebody in the audience decides to suddenly join in, by launching a vile attack. Why would someone choose to do that? Hmmm. Good question. Not all vicious attacks come from Nigerian trolls, I have decided. Is it because the offender didn’t get any nookie last night, or did Mom yell at him, did he get a bad grade, was he passed over for a promotion, did he have a fender bender?
