I came to a decision

Wow. This is surprising. The LoT has always been the one place I know of on the net that is free of the douchiness of other places we've been. That sucks that some Mojo Lacking Mofo drug such bad vibes in here. I hope they're reading these threads and feeling appropriately unhip.

MMM, if it makes you feel any better I can empathize with you. I've been posting with most of these folks for almost seven years now and still haven't been able to meet them. I see the announcements and wish that I could go and I understand what a bummer it is to not be able to, as well as the somewhat outside-looking-in feelings that go along with that, but don't let that bother you. And don't let anyone who wants you to conform to their way of posting bother you either. This is the LoT, and I've always thought of that as meaning that we have a "LoT" of diversity here and a "LoT" of different ways of looking at things and posting about them. I'm glad that you decided to stay and ignore the douche who wanted to pigeonhole you into posting their way. Swanky is as swanky does, and I think your pretty damn hip for taking the high road.

But hey, at least we all now get a bit more FUD in our lives as we speculate on who the un-named assailant is. Perhaps I should start a poll.

GC please get Jon Bon Jovi to give me a phone call. I know you could of all people

Ditto on everything Jazzman said. I live in Wisconsin, mostly so I can wear a swanky fur coat every day for months and months.

It means I never get to see these fabulous people! But it is a really nice fur coat.

In other words; for seven years, Jazzman has snubbed us.

Real or faux? I admire a lady with the courage to wear fur nowadays. My wife looks fabulous in her fur. I laugh often about anti-fur activists who lash out at fur wearers, all the while wearing leather shoes, jackets or handbags. Ah, the irony of hypocrisy.

Oh, I got to meet MMM - We shared a foot-massage and a beer together (amongst other things)

...I'm glad you're staying Rose.

Listen, around where I live, most of the fur people wear? They caught it themselves or picked it up off the road, I kid you not.

A few years ago, I went vegan for six weeks, not for ethics but for health. During that time, I bought the only piece of furniture I have chosen all by myself and bought all by myself: a red leather chair.
