There's always a reason.

I'm more liberal than I used to be. I used to be more pro-Alberta secession but now I'm more balanced.

Not sure if it's people's arguments on this site in particular or just more knowledge in general, but the opinion has changed.

[Asher]

Also, Lori has admitted I was right when I said a long time ago it was a mistake to buy a used Ford.

[SlowwHand]

Not buying a used Ford is some profound revelation? Come on.

[Asher]

What's obvious to sterling gentlemen such as ourselves, Sloww, is not obvious to everyone.

[SlowwHand]

Well-said. I totally agree.

With opportunities I have been forced to face in past few years, I do take many comments here seriously

Heck, I know I can be a real richard-head, its nothing personal, just my makeup


And yes, I do take exception when people come at me, yes, I have been told most of my life, not many people know anyone who argues or debates like me.

Same when I fought, no such thing as a fair fight in Gramps life

But, I am trying to be a better person.

I am 49 years old.

I have offended too many people and want to do this no more

I do cherish many relationship established here


I never set out to hurt people, rather, on meds, never really pulled back


I know I took it over the line when in a Rascism thread chose to throw improper examples to get a prescribed response. I never mweant it to be taken as literal, still dont.

But thanks to Imran,Dauphin,Che and many more, I realize my comments did not come across the way I mreant them to


So, I was wrong, for posting crap that was inflamatory andalso for the times I unsulted Staff/Admin here

What did I conceive would be achieved positevly?

Ill tell ya, Ming and rah amongst others have a thankless job.

How did Brother Bruce help or assist Apolyton in being the greatest Civin site?

I showed my @r$e and caused them problems.


So where does this put me?

"I am a freaking grown up!

I manage people and a pretty large business


This isnt my personal dart board or heavy bag to beat on

I will say that by choosing to admit it and yes, several occassions caused my word, which I took for granted, to count for wasted space, I try yet again to be a contributor

So yes, one who was hard to change his mind is thanking those who stand up and say I can and must be better

Thanks for all those who stay here and thanks for all who continue to contribute

[Ben Kenobi]

Make sure you stay here Gramps.

[SlowwHand]

This isnt my personal dart board or heavy bag to beat on

Why not? Read around you. You think you're the only ranter? I don't think so.

[Grandpa Troll]

Thanks Ben, thats why I am back sir

Slowwhand, I believe we have more than enough rasnters, I allways feel better when assisting as oppossed to detracting from here

I have a personal pride when I am not offending people. I dont mind debating, jhust dont feel good when my intentional spite is aimed out of meanness.

It has to do with how my life has been travelled, after having been intentionally abused, this is tha last thing I should do


I have the utmost respect for many people here, and likewise have much entertainment out of others!

Some make me smile, others, well, I try to avoid because I know I will be upset with their mouth, hiding behuind a computer screen

[SlowwHand]

Not offend people? I'd see no reason for living.

Well, I never claimed it wasn't a mistake, so there!
