Wound up doing my updates yesterday …
 
It's all Good . Everything went smooth .
 
Thank You Cakewalk

Has anyone noticed that those that seem to have everything working are also particularly bright, nice and thoughtful people?  People that are glum and dispirited tend to have all sorts of problems? Do you think there is a connection?   

Right on...

Haha- that may well be so John. The question remains though, is it the chicken or the egg?

I thought about that too. Its the classic is it half full or half empty. What I mean is its ones approach. If you expect the worst you often get it. 
 
But I was trying to do two things with that. One, those that come here with good cheer even if they do have a problem seem to get members stepping on each other coming up with solutions. And the mood of a post as with Kenny's and yours are consistently positive as are many others. Each brings a bit of sun on a cloudy day. I hope it is always such. It seem to me to be worth the effort to note it in an around about kind of way.

Thanks John - well said. People are so often too keen to notice the problems but ignore all that goes well. The work you and the other mods do here does not go unnoticed - there was another post about it this morning. Whilst your helpfulness is obvious, also appreciated at least by me is your willingness to step up and call out bad attitude when it arises. It is one of the things that keeps this forum such a good place to visit.

Not to mention fiercely good-looking.

There is an alternate wording to that you may not like ...
