Yes, you are right about the private replies, part.

Funny, you’ve made my point for me. When I spoke to your friend, and I’d like to think mine in a virtual sort of way, that was my reaction.

If you want to criticize my opinions, fine.

Telling me about how “women are” isn’t exactly aimed at my opinions, and didn’t exactly make me feel warm and fuzzy either, and only served to throw gasoline on the fire.

BTW, “nunya” was said and meant in a light hearted fashion, a fond memory of a marvelous friend. I obviously missed the mark and apologize.

Gee this has been a week full of lessons, many of which I could easily have done without.

OK, HC, I can see we both got off into a place we did not intend.

I now see what I thought was a funny remark was not funny to you. And what you meant as a funny remark for me was "misunderinterpreted" at this end. [A failing I have grown more prone to with the passage of time.]

The lesson could be neither one of us is as funny as we thought! 8)

TS is our friend and is fond of all the SnowFlakes. [Well, maybe not the one who keeps calling him a traitor!] 8) As you wrote earlier, if we weren’t friends, we wouldn’t waste time fussin’ at each other. With gasoline threatening to go to $4 a gallon, I do not want to waste it by throwing it on a fire.

To steal a line from Tony, who stole it from Obama, who stole it from....: “Words count.” But, then so does context and syntax. Dog bites man vs Man bites dog. Same words. Was that FReeper smiling when they wrote that sarcastic post or gritting their teeth. Hard to know sometimes.

But, today is Sunday. A day of repentance and reflection. So, with that in mind I offer my apologies to you for those words of mine which aggravated rather than edified. Now it is time to put this behind us and return to our “warm and fuzzy” friendship. Well, “warm”, at least. Not sure what “fuzzy” means?!
