The only thing which might do what you want is the 'More' button on the top leftish. It gives you the option of sharing on Facebook or email or stuff. Does the more button show on anything other than the homepage accessible to me...? If that question makes sense.<br />Mike Keytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15116528233058221536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644036152805047632.post-22868707654048261832015-01-16T08:55:39.844-08:002015-01-16T08:55:39.844-08:00Nice post Michael.

Dead right, ...People work too hard to find offense<br /><br />Dead right, we live in a culture of selfies and self-importance.

One of the reactive phenomenon related to the event that has impressed me most is the craven hypocrisy of journos (including the so-called political cartoonists). CNN's alleged policy is laughable. One can still find images of the dung Virgin and piss Christ on their website. Cartoonists at WaPo depict conservatives in the most disparaging (and usually pathologically untrue) ways imaginable, but don't have the guts of Westergaard, who dealt with obvious truth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644036152805047632.post-84511097649262666672015-01-14T08:34:23.331-08:002015-01-14T08:34:23.331-08:00I agree with most of what you said.

Lately it seems that even simple activities are being curtailed because this person or that group might be offended.
