    No worries dude, thought I'd just explain another of my random acts of stupidity.

    That's like 120,000 pounds. I'd be impressed if a quarter still worked after being run over by one of those, I give that laptop a lot of credit now...BTW, it's spelled Abrams

    I don't doubt for a second that he was there. The Abrams is a US Tank, he served under the British army. He may have only seen these in passing, and unlike commercial and retail automobiles, these things typically lack all manufacture and model insignias. He made an honest spelling mistake, that was all that I wanted to point out. I don’t feel it’s fair to call him a liar like that. Would you care to retract or at least apologize for your statement?

    Agreed Ya_know.
    TripleR please remove the chip on your shoulder. It must be getting pretty heavy by now and eveyone has seen it.

    I apologize, sincerely to confus-ed!!!
    I am inspired by Orangeman's apology to Doc.
    I should not have been so petty and
    ...well, pathetic!!!
    But, as many of you know,
    this one goes back to the instigator of Fight Night.
    And, many of my posts have been edited
    by the one who sees a chip on my shoulder.
    I do apologize for that,
    for that is my burden:
    to give as well as expect respect.
    When I don't see it: I fight back!
    When I am disrespected,
    be it with wit or sarcasm,
    I fight back.
    And, it bites me back.
    Irony, huh?
    Well, I do have a lot of bitterness in me.
    I have been used and abused to the point of
    moving to an island to get away from it all.
    But, as someone once said,
    "No man is an Island",
    although I try to be.
    But now, I am trying not to be,
    Hence, my joining this forum.
    I continuie to have much growing up to do.
    And,
    with your patience,
    I will continue to strive for that.

    Well it wasn't me was it ? ...

    I like many others come here to help, for free, we come here to help with technical 'stuff' because that's what we like to do, we can appreciate that folks might be blinded by techo-mumbo-jumbo-whatsit (I always am !), that they might need some impartial technical advice and now & again they might need some help or at least understanding in 'other areas' of their life ...

    All I (& others here) would ask is that you don't throw it back in our faces

    If you don't like my online personality, then fair do's (there's only so much you can translate of 'personality' to the written word - why I like my little 'emoticon' friends!) ... we can't all like everyone can we ? ... but there's no need or call for it all to develop into an ongoing slanging match, you now seem to wise to me (at least to some extent) so again - fair do's, I hope that's now behind us.

    One thing I have learnt while here (among many ) is that 'flame wars' only cause the senior mod much editing duty ... (if Curt - he's the last 'top' mod - Sowulu {the sun god} - is reading this ... he'll laugh his socks off - I caused him much editing until I got that idea)

    So you ain't alone ... the secret is to learn ... you are aware of that, so hopefully ....

    As for 'fight nite' ... well it worked ! you kiss Ya_Knows behind at every opportunity now ... urrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh - I shudder to think

    Shall I do another for you & Noo now ? (there's only one winner there though, & it ain't you ) or maybe we still need a couple of rounds, first ?

    I sincerely hope not !

    Everyone is a winner when there is peace between the egos

    Well, he started that one:
    Seems it was over between he and teh Doc,
    he said they were old news
    then he said "It's you and me now, babe" (Hey isn't that a song?).
    I went
    He went
    I went
    He went
    Teh Doc got jealous and gave him a starring role.
    So, I guess we are old news now.

    Nah, she's too cute (with those flowing blue locks, seductively moving that long blue leg) to stay mad at for long.
    Besides, the latest featured fight, I think, (after all, I've been sleeping for six hours) is Doc v Orangeman, don't ya think?

    The 'post' to which I think you refer, I zapped, as being 'overly' provacative

    Trying to take my own 'preaching' to heart

    I'm off to see what Doc & Orange are up to now ... nothing like mocking the afflicated ... & yeah, no kissing !, I'm not 'teh gay' either

    I am very disappointed in all of you. To think, all of this bad blood is gone...that really chaps my hide. Does this mean we are all going to get along now? Because, if so, I will have to take my bitterness elsewhere…
