MJ is not in a very good mood today. I know, because I'm the one that put him in a not so great mood. He doesn't get mad often, but I wish I had not seen it today. Point is, if you're playing with him today, you might want to stay on his good side today.

And MJ, check your email again, after you have a few hours to cool off. I goofed. It's all in the email.

You know John,

I'm not MJ, and I can't speak for Mark (though I have been lucky enough to meet him once)

However, I do know that that if someone annoyed me, and then they posted a message warn gin people to be careful because I was mad - well, that would make me angry. Italian - Irish-Scottish-English angry if you catch my drift.

Just a thought, but perhaps your above post is another case of open mouth and insert lower body

Point taken. The intent though was in hopes of calming Mr. Young down a bit. The humor angle I guess. Nothing I can about it now. I hadn't thought of that.

John also overlooks the possibility that I might be very annoyed at him, and even very frustrated with everything else I have to do, and not take it out on anyone else.

I won't embarrass John by telling you how he annoyed me. I will suggest to everyone that if you send me an e-mail, you probably shouldn't send me another one on the same subject until you've gotten an answer to the first one--unless it's been at least a week, in which case I either did not get it or did not think it needed a reply. Don't follow up with seven more reasons why you're right about what you said in the first letter, because if you were right in the first letter it's an unnecessary annoyance, and if you were wrong in the first letter you should at least wait to know why you were wrong before you try to argue the point.

Oh--and "pliers" is spelled with an "i".

MJ. I made a few HUGE mistakes over the past few days. If I believed in Karma, I'd say I'm having some very bad Karma. I'm glad that you have a high tolerance for stupidity. You would need it to put up with everything you put up with. All I can do is say I'm sorry. Please pray for me.

PS: In wine lies the truth.

I think that the vino veritas saying is only partly true. In wine lies foolishness, as well, as several of my friends have more than once demonstrated.
