I want to apologize for my behavior in the thread entitled "the way it was..."

My behavior was unacceptable and unwarranted. When streetsoldier said, "I am quit with you", that's when I knew I had gone too far. He shouldn't have had to say that, at all. And I shouldn't have said most of the things I said, and especially in the way I said them.

I came into that thread practically with a chip on my shoulder and instead of saying something like, "that's interesting and it's true times were good then, but I think things are actually still progressing and are as good or better now despite the problems we have," I said (paraphrased) "this is just fallocious logic. You people obviously don't understand that it's just an artifact of human perception of time. etc." Of course, I could have always just kept my figurative mouth shut and saved myself and others a lot of trouble and heated debate.

So, once again, I offer my apologies for my behavior to anyone who was insulted or otherwise inflamed by what I said. There was no excuse for it and I will try to utmost ability to remain civil in the future (despite my history of going over the edge).

Apology happily accepted, WidreMann!

One passage of wisdom I wish to pass to you...at your age, I was much the same; high degree of intellect, little sensitivity as to how I employed it affected others.

I learned through trial-and-error that great intelligence is a good servant, but an unwieldy and damaging master. With a little fine-tuning, some time and a "soupcon" of self-policing, you'll be just fine. OK?

Apology accepted too. No one is perfect, and we all make mistakes.

ditto!! It takes alot of guts to admit you are wrong!!

Thanks WildreMann....we all make mistakes. It takes a big man to admit it when he makes one. I'm proud of you!

Take care,
Perry

*shakes hands* Hey....ya know, we've all said things we wish we could take back but.....that's what friends do, forgive and forget, life's too darn short to squabble over petty things, there's enough problems in this world without adding insult to injury!

Same here Widremann - appreciate the apology! All is forgiven.....

No harm done my friend!!!!!

We are all friends here. Apology much accepted!

I wish there was a "thumbs up" icon I could use! Good for you Widreman! There's alot of good advice that was just dispensed here for you - take advantage of the "years" of wisdom.

Widreman, one of the great things about being here is the
fact that everyone enjoys the fellowship and conversation
with one another. Sometimes I come in here, just like any
place else, grumpy and tired, and, I know that it shows in
my posts in a sarcastic kind of way. But, there is always
someone who makes me smile or laugh and feel better, or,
someone shows me the err of my ways. There's too many
good people around to hold a grudge, and, you're still just as
much a part of us as you always were!

Yeah, Widre, I saw that, but was not personally offended. I did some apologizing too over the weekend. So you miss the mark. Just reload and fire again. In time your aim improves.

That's ok.

Nice double post Ed!
Widre, apology accepted.

Apology accepted Widremann. Sometimes things just get out of hand but all is forgiven.

Thanks for the apology Widremann! We all get a little carried away sometimes Apology accepted
