The Mellotron Group

I hold numerous exalted offices, including First Lord of the Treasury, Lord Chief Justice, Archbishop of Cunnilingus, and Grand Poobah of this group.

Here are the rules:

Language - Anything goes.  (If you don't like this rule, fuck off.)

There are two things that we do not tolerate: Intolerance and stupidity.

Any messages that are hostile towards people of differing race, religion, nationality or sexual orientation will be deleted and the author will be kicked out of the group.

I don't want to restrict people from expressing their opinions or making jokes.  Try to keep the political commentary off the list.  If it gets too stupid, I will boot you out. 

With all of the comedy and extreme stupidity in American politics, I find it difficult myself to hold back political comments... but I do hold back.

John, you can't be serious.

This is done not to restrict your freedom of speech, but to keep the list  
focused on its topic. In this case: Mellotrons.  


There are many political and religious forums where these discussions are  
welcomed. Just not a musical instrument forum.

Nope, "Nutters" and "Morons" automatically signals the acceptance of  
Mellotron discussions.

Though I'm technically still married, my wife left me after 21 years of  
marriage and 23 of "being together".  I can guarantee that if my world  had 
not collapsed financially, she'd still be here.  It was only after  she told 
me she was leaving (even though she'd told friends, co-workers, and  even 
strangers on facebook, she wasn't going to tell me till almost the last  
second) that I began to look, and discover evidence of her lying and cheating,  
including the possibility that my youngest son is not mine.  


While hard to deal with (to say the least), what really pisses me off is  
that she abandoned her sons, the youngest at 15 still very attached and  
needing her input and guidance, to go to the other side of the country to set  
up a new life as a painter/hipster with people she'd met on the net.  She  
won't even friend her son on facebook - I think she's afraid he'll find out  
what she's doing in her "life".
 
OK, I'll try to make it so that this is the only time that any of you  hear

The best advice I can give you is do just your own thing and completely forget about her.

Don't talk to her, don't talk about her , don't waste another second thinking even about her.
