Food for thought. And surely stirred 'em up some more.

Hi Perry:
I think this IS 'food for thought', and not antagonistic in the least. I,
too, would not dream of judging a show of irises I'm not familiar with (like
arils), nor do I even try to vote those parts of the ballot. Much as I like
to kid, I do take my responsibilities as a judge seriously and would embrace
the same oath that doctors take "First, do no harm".
We need to always remember two things (IMHO), 1) People depend on us and so
we should exercise our responsibilities and 2) THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN
I get paid to take stress, and don't want to extend it into the thing I love
best. We should always remember that this is a flower club, we are flower-
lovers and that we need to do the very best job we can.... for the joy of it.
