So figuring the person this is about reads this forum and kind of started it I figured I'd just put it here and if it needs to be moved I have no hang up's with that.
Lucille,
I wanted to finally come out and make amends with you. I already did with Rich a while back (and no you did NOT kiss or exchange bodily fluids
!!) and have been trying to come up with the proper wording to express an worthy apology to you for my past actions and words against you. Not really easy to do considering the hateful things I said and did you know. Plus I never really was any good at this sort of thing as in the past I just went on and never gave second thought to any harm something I said or did had on anyone. Kind of a crappy way to go through life and I don't recommend it to anyone. Honestly I just let the venom in me out freely and I really had no right to do that. You are a great lady. A mother, a care giver, and you took it upon yourself to go back to school to expand your knowledge. Not bad attributes in today's society at all. And to think this all started over a difference in views is quite sad. Granted I am hard headed and set in my ways, but doing what I did was way wrong.
So I offer you my most sincere apology for my past words and actions directed at you. Also anyone else I offended in the past (except JimO) I offer the same apology. It's time to put the past to rest and move on along to the future folks and I am going to do the best that I can to do just that.
Brian
