well, although you have carefully plastered several caveats throughout, the fact that you went to the trouble to post an apology is appreciated [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]…fact is, netiquette is an arcane and wondrous thing, and all of us have tripped over points of it [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img] (who knew printing in block letters was such a major offense in some quarters?!)…the thing that makes this whole little show stagger along however is pretty much what makes real life liveable; a willingness to learn and modify one’s behavior to the circumstances…and btw, although saddy does not expressly condone or condemn beatings, except perhaps in the case of pesky ex wives and petty bureaucrats, i think it’s fairly clear that one shouldn’t go out and beat people if one has an inkling that this might not be acceptable behavior [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

just out of curiousity, has anyone here got a funny story about a fauxpas, internet or otherwise that they have committed? i was helping two male friends move into a brownstone in ny a few years ago, when the lady who owned it asked me whose friend i was…she was a sweet old icelandic lady and i thought she was simply curious as to which of the boys had conned me into carrying large boxes up and down three flights of stairs…i said i was friends with both of the boys (we were college buddies) and thought no more of it…later, one of the boys, also icelandic, had a conversation with her, and turned to me smiling…and said ‘she thinks you’re sleeping with both of us’… [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
