It's not an old thread to us new guys.

(Ok, even retreads got a lot of catchin' up to do. It's really good to be back, btw.)

I never object to old threads being resurrected. I only tease when the person doing the resurrecting responds to a very old post as if it were made two minutes ago, without even mentioning that they're doing it. That's jarring to me, so I say something.

Well, jarring to me is canning preserves. But I agree that the poster flunks the 'attention to detail' portion of Navy bootcamp. Probably left the catch edge up on his bunk and his 'b' drawer unlocked. Maybe marched backwards in formation.
