Hi ,just wanted to say sorry for my rant the other day. I did a huge dis-service to this board and it's members and I feel pretty shitty about it today. My lack of restraint was totally unacceptable and I hope I didn't set a bad precedent for the newbies thinking that this is the way we treat each other here. I will keep my cool in the future.
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

No need to apologize , you spoke out of passion after being undeservingly attacked for something completely inconsequential. I think it's a natural reaction when your character is questioned in such a manner. I certainly took no offence.

I agree with everyone above. All is cool and you needn't feel bad. You stood up for yourself--no shame in that.
BTW--I agree that it takes a great deal of guts to post an apology. I also agree that it shows a great deal of class.

I have been at a conference all weekend, otherwise i would have responded to this thread earlier.
Since much of your "rant" was directed at me, I thank you for posting this apology. Unfortunately a misinterpretation led to a bit of a battle, but your decision to apologize publicly shows respect and good character.
On my end, I wish to point out once again that at no point did i intend to centre you out as a stalker. I know that this is not true, and I believe you misinterpreted my post. In fact, the "creepy stalker" phrase is a bit of an inside joke with a friend, and I intended it to be taken half jokingly. I do not feel that you were "undeservingly attacked" as CanuckCourage points out. I simply made a comment that you took offense to. For that, I sincerely apologize. I hope you will accept my apology so that we can put this behind us. We have a big summer coming up and there are more important things for us to focus on.
