@suzianne saidNo. There's been no whoosh for me. It's Ghost of a Duke who works in mental health and he recently helped fill 70+ thread pages on the Spirituality saying it over and over again. He apparently takes a very dim view of people throwing around words that psychiatrists use. You didn't seem to pick up on that so the whoosh is yours, I'd say.
Whoosh.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidChecked my note and it doesn’t say clerk it says berk.
No, no, I'm a clerk. Dive has all the details.
Could be a typo I suppose.

@suzianne saidHow’s it all going?
It is with regret that I announce to you all, that after 6965 days, I am leaving Red Hot Pawn.
I'm leaving to pursue my other interests in life, including finishing my masters degree, and my ongoing efforts to improve the lives of the homeless in downtown Phoenix, Arizona.
@suzianne saidWell, yes. Fishing. Surely you know, when it comes to helping the homeless in cities like Phoenix [or Denver, for that matter], it's OK, I suppose, if you give a man a fish ~ as Lao Tzu so wisely said ~ as you will have fed him for that day. But, it is much better to teach a man to fish because then you will have fed him for a lifetime.
Going fishing?
