for Graeme (apology on my part)

Graeme, My sincere apologies (public no less) for, 1) potentially taking a private note and making it public. 2) intimating that I was in anyway p****d at you. I used to be able to write cogent sentences that people could understand and not mis-interpret - but I left grade school a long time ago. Let me try this very clearly (for me that means monosyllables). I was not sobbing into my beer because you sent/posted (I don't know which) a note telling me to try thinking occasionally. I was sobbing into my beer because you were absolutely correct. I have a tendency to go off half-cocked, which Alan informs me can be disastrous for one's love-life. I took the liberty (I assume) of making this public only to show that someone I respect thinks I should put my head on in the morning before attacking the keyboard. Two things - I should stop sobbing into my beer - it makes it flat, and I should stop going off half-cocked. Ok, third thing - I should commit myself to a sanatorium in the Bahamas - but the release must go on. No fourth thing. cheers j. _____________________________________________________________________________ Jack Parker - Contractor | "I think we should take off and Hewlett Packard, BSMC Boise, Idaho, USA| nuke the entire site from orbit, jparker@hpbs2561.boi.hp.com | it's the only way to be sure."
