4. Here's a suggestion ...

Avoid clicking on threads that advertise themselves as photo threads.

Problem solved.

16. OK, I looked at this OP again and realized that I was wrong.

It's not a bad thread at all, in fact I wish I could recommend it now. I was just in a pissy mood last night and took it out on your thread, sorry about that.

6. Absolutely the most touching: Ruth Ginsberg reaching alllll the way up to pat him on the cheek...
The one where she's seated with her head down: she may be dozing off due to her illness. The cancer's back -- actually it's been back awhile. Dear lady, please hang in there.
