Sorry Delphi, but funerals don’t last two weeks.

You might have said you were off the computer due to emotional distress, family commitments or such, related to a (or several) deaths in the family, but to state it was due to funerals is just plain silly.

By the way I might not respond to any posts you might make due to two separate fatal illnesses, a baby due and a wedding taking place in my immidiate family within the next week. (I am saying this tongue in cheek, because while these events will occur, and I will experience some absences, I won’t use it as an excuse to post a thousands of word response to a single post over two weeks ago, then disparage any poster who might not sympathize with me.) lol

BTW, the dog ate my homework.

U Said: Sorry Delphi, but funerals don’t last two weeks.

I said funerals, as in two and you obviously have not tried to organize family from across the states to attend.

I am sorry that the death of others is silly to you.

I continued to post through many things, however, this was not possible and I really don't intend to get into why. However, anti Mormons often claim victory in some Pyrrhic fashion if not responded to immediately. That is why we Mormons who respond late need to explain why.

I hope your Dog is OK.


Everyone can afford the cost of Good Manners, some just don't want to spend the effort.
