Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Fred: Tonya is on the POLP list. She has made some very nice posts for other parents of newborn LPs, and has a great kid named Knoah. Alyce: Ditto to everything you said. Tony: Get a grip! I've been over Tonya's emails several times now, and I don't see where she accused you of racism. I see where she made reference to being bi-racial, as an attempt to show that she understands bigotry. It just so happened on the heels of your Chris Rock analogy, which I don't know if you were specifically referencing in light of her being b-racial, or it was just a coincidence. Either way, you're creating a tempest in a teapot. And you never did apologize to her for an unprovoked attack with was initiated by me. So to the entire list: I apologize. For everything. For W, for Global Warming, for the price of gas, for the War in Iraq, for Joe Biden, for making of Fred's accent <g>, to Chass and all his fetishes, to all those " outsiders " , for making fun of knitting, to Irene and on behalf of the Y chromosome, to Rose...well, because I don't know why, but I usually end up owing her an apology once every 6 months anyway, to (see Rose's apology but add 3 months), to my brothers for sharing my last name, to Tricia who is ready to kill me because I forgot to email her, and to the moderators on this list for the sins of every dwarf under the heavens. Wow, I feel like I just came out of a liturgical service and the Penitential Order of Confession...

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 I never met Tonya. I didn't know anything about her as she knew little about me. She brought up the race thing. I apologized, why must you always, find it your duty provide an " Op-Ed " on everything I post? On Jan 14, 2008, at 12:18 AM, Bill Bradford wrote: > Tony: Get a grip!

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 This is the last time I'm going to get up early and check my email. I'm not awake enough to contemplate penance at this ungodly hour. <yawn> Bill (Insomnia is fun) On Jan 14, 2008 4:22 AM, Whims Ivey <justwhims@...> wrote: > > > since you have now comitted the sin of overconfession, just wait till you > see what your penance is! > Whims > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
