My "humor" is sometimes clumsy, sometimes misguided, as in this > instance. I'll let others try to lighten the discussions for a while now. And I want to apologize for my over-reaction. As I explained to Bill through private email, nothing seems to send a topic off-track and bring out the flames faster than the subjects of guns and politics, especially gun politics and I didn't want to see the original topic get kicked aside in the fall-out. We just left the gun battlefield not too long ago (though I saw more battle behind the scenes than what took place on the list and it was grim 8-} I really didn't want to go there again. Anyhow, to those that celebrate it, have a happy and safe Memorial Holiday. To all others, have a great weekend :-) Cheers, Jackie *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Fri May 26 2000 - 20:02:24 PDT
