Not sure that you understood the friendliness and tongue-in-cheek in my remark. That's what the smiley was for. Even though friendly, the mild insult was intended.
I have grown up, have a job, and have educated myself. Still yet I remain such a vulgar fool, knave, charlatan! N'er yet have I voted for dem nor idol, save for time after time a sheep in sheep's clothing.
Alas! George Will - when did'st thou commence at penning tomes sign'd VKLEE?
Perhaps you are due an apology but please see this from my viewpoint. After having to defend myself from so much criticism for believing in DT, seeing your remark caused my eyes to bleed and ‘wherever’. It was late, just having had a conflict with one who can’t see the forest for the trees, I was clearly in protect mode and, failing to see your smiley face at the end of the message, I only struck back. If you feel you are due an apology, please accept this as such. And, it was late, the smile might have been missed as the eyes were half shut. Truly, would it help to say I am sorry for lashing you? I am as it was misdirected. Hand shake?
