    I will delete the drama/bickering/flaming if I see it.

    None of us have time for it and another71 isn’t the place for it.

    Perhaps a “No Drama” post is drama itself, but you get my point 🙂

    Surfing? I tried surfing at Del Mar a few months ago – first (and last ) time … I was freaking exhausted after 15 minutes of being knocked on my butt over and over.

    It was worse than 3 rounds of my wannabe MMA workouts.

    Surfing is awesome! I've only done it once, but I'd love to do it again. When I was in Hawaii about ten years ago I got surfing lessons from this old beach bum there. A couple months later, I was watching TV and he came up in an interview and they called him one of the best surfers in the world. I had had no idea!

    I'm pretty sure it's this guy… I know he was called “the rabbit” and it was on Waikiki Beach.

    I actually dont surf. One of my good friends founded surfline.com. He was one of the most influential people in the surfing industry and was elected to the surfing hall of fame a couple of years ago. He passed away yesterday of a massive heart attack while playing tennis at my tennis club. Only 59 years old. So, so sad.

    @Mini, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. It's great of you to keep his memory alive.

    As for the drama, I wish there were a way to denote sarcasm in written text. I think too many people misinterpret sarcasm as direct personal attacks and the defenses shoot up. Being overly sarcastic myself, I pick up on it quickly but I've gotten myself in trouble a time or two when people didn't pick up on it. Dry wit + sarcasm = people think you're a jerk (sometimes)

    Sorry for the misunderstanding Mini. And sorry to hear about your friend.

    I do surf and am familiar with Surfline. Great service.

    Maybe one day you can give surfing a try (if you have not already) in his honor. It can be exhausting like Jeff mentioned, but one good ride makes it all worthwhile.

    @Mini,

    I don't know what is going on lately, but to me you have always been a great resource 🙂

    Thank you, KasiaS, kandis, and sim.

    Haha, thanks, atelery. Now its time for you to pass on all of that knowledge to the new class of CPA candidates. Be careful though because some of them (not all, I was corrected on this earlier) are a little sensitive.

    WHAT! no more drama? I am out of here! ha jk.. while I agree we should not fight, I still think we should be able to respectfully disagree with people and call people out if they're being non-sensical-myself included. We shouldn't expect to always be told what we want to hear…facing reality is always good.
