And that is the beauty of our country we have the right to say that.
I too still give first post an F but second brought it up to a B - I wouldn't want that job. (I probably wouldn't be good at it because I am like you, I say what I think, my mother always tells me tact is NOT my middle name)
It's about the journey and being in the moment, not about the destination
