Good a time as any to say that I hope I'm not doing too much damage to the WAB-house. I like this place a whole lot. Don't want to do anything to crater it.

BUT...

DON'T FEEL MUCH LIKE APOLOGIZING, EITHER.

I'm in a HELLUVA mood, man.

Thank you - I will keep this in mind.

All is good. I could toss you a good many heartfelt compliments if I were
sure you wouldn't break down and start blubbering.

And, hey, be thankful for bad moods; they make good ones possible. We're not ready for Soma just yet.

Seriously, I think we all wonder at times whether we've gone too far in our posts. But apologize? Never. Apologies should be reserved for insults and then only selectively.

I like this place too. I've seen a lot of boards, but few come close to this one in quality of discussion and people--especially people.

Enjoy your evening...
