I'm feeling kind of crappy (under the weather) today so I'll just let everything fall out here -

We do not need that kind of unintelligible, ungramattical gibberish being passed around as the prime example of who and what we stand for - unless we are trying to convince everyone besides ourselves that we are ignorant, uneducated, unintelligent bufoons. Every one of those cards is a "first impression" that is not going to be a good one.

Yes, I know how difficult it is to cram everything you want to say into a restricted amount of space. I also know that sometimes it's better to pick the most important thoughts and throw away the rest of the verbiage. I also know that "proper" or "correct" writing helps advance your cause while something thatreads like it spilled out of the mind of a deranged person pushes our cause back.

Yes, I applaud whoever is trying to get the message out. I just wish they had done a better job of it.

stay safe.
