I had an unfortunately bad day due to some local politics yesterday and was quite the angry person last night, which you might have noticed due tot he fact that I was still awake at 2:30 in the morning and hurling insults at fellow members. That DOES NOT give me the right to be insensitive or arrogant. I, especially me, being a moderator, should have held myself to a higher standard of behavior, but I failed last night. I failed miserably[V][B)]
Nothing justifies my unwarranted personal attack on you in light of our spirited discussion yesterday. I am completely in the wrong in that vein and take full responsibility for my actions. What I said was hurtful and no doubt very upsetting to you and your family. I will remove my comments from the post and am placing this here as my formal apology for being an azzhole of the highest order.
You have no doubt been through some very hard times and I will not attempt to say that I understand your hardships. Please accept my sincerest apologies for my poor behavior, I woke up this morning and felt quite like the jerk that I was. I knew damn good and well I was wrong, and have been trying to figure out just what to say to right my wrongs. This isn't coming out in superfluous form as I would have hoped, but it is heart felt and 100% the truth.
Once again, I sincerely apologize for being a *. You did not deserve my unwarranted attack. I am very sorry for my actions, I could not have been more wrong.
If you are ever coming through here, I would like the chance to buy you a cup of coffee or a beer. I would like to think that would be possible, but I completely understand if you wish to write me off, as it would be well deserved.
Humbly Yours,
JustC

And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
You are a Man! That is one heck of a nice apology. It takes a real man to do what you did.
I wish BSR would buy a dash cam!! stir, stir...........[:D]
Happy weekend to all of you,
Ed
I missed the entire ordeal(thankfully) but,I also know that you are a good person.
What U have posted here,is about all a man can do to try to right an obvious wrong.
I would imagine that you are, at this time, feeling worse about yourself than BSR is.I hope so anyway...
Their is a reason all newbies here are warned,right away,to thicken their skin,don hip boots and get ready to be hammered.
BSR has been around this forum for a good while.I believe he's man enough to accept your apologies and let bygones be bygones...
NOW: Put yourself in a 7-DAY time out and I will REALLY respect you!![8D]
I'm insensitive and arrogant all the time so don't feel to bad. [;)]
Nice enough apology, & probably heart-felt, but to me, a man doesn't need to start it out with (hey, look at me) "here I am being a man..." not looking to start an argument, just sayin'
Valid point that I totally overlooked..Still.BSR and JC both are good folks in my book,as far as I know them..

statement has been removed, as per your suggestion.
Hard to beat that score...
[Otto dangling Archie out of a window]
Archie: All right, all right, I apologize.
Otto: You're really sorry?
Archie: I'm really really sorry. I apologize unreservedly.
Otto: You take it back?
Archie: I do. I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.
Otto: [thinks a moment] Okay.
Now, gearheaddad I do have a dashcam but it sucks and erases video even if I hit protect, worst $39 at Walmart I ever spent!
Oakie, I don't stay mad, I just look for ya in traffic and make your day misserable [:D]
I have you saved as a contact in my phone, and you have my number now. Call me anytime you want, even if you just need to vent. I am here for you[8]
Find a reason to smoke through here, and you have a bed to sleep in and a dinner on the table.
I know I have gone off half cocked a time or two. I think we all need to just remember that as much as we are a family, we are also on the InterWeb and so don't necessarily know all that is going on in someone's life outside the GB Forum. Some care taken to keep that in mind will probably help us avoid stepping in it too often.
Thanks for getting things ironed out, Gentlemen.
Well what ever happened you manned up and thats good but I never realized you were a moderator.
Why Not[?] Do I need to lock some stuff[?] banninate some folks[?] Which by the way I don't have the authority to do[;)] I'm just funnin with ya[:D]
I gots me some different colored stars, that's the only way you can tell. I will whack a pee pee in the reloading forum when somebody gives dangerous advice, but other than that, I am just another member here.
BSR is much nicer on the phone than he is on here [;)] It's been about 6 or 7 years since our last conversation that lasted a few hours about the sand box and I am patiently waiting for the day he has a load to minnesota and we get the chance to grab a beer at Hooters.
Right you are.[8] The man had every right to cuss me into oblivion, but he didn't. We had a nice talk, and I am honored to call Lonnie my friend.

Right now, I can't think of anything that can piss me off more than local politics.
I was chided by many for being against our cities school district separating from the county and forming an independent school district {ISD}. I opposed vehemently and was vocal about it saying property taxes would have to be raised significantly to support an ISD.
Mayor and Aldermen etc said taxes would remain the same and promised they could go independent without raising taxes.
Despite my opposition, We have an ISD. It has now been one year and the Mayor an Aldermen are now saying we must raise property taxes significantly to support the new ISD.
We ALL have our moments... You're human not a machine.
The fact that you recognized your err'd ways, speaks volumes.
KUDOS to you JustC... !
Have a GREAT Day! [;)]
