My apologies

[turnerriver]

I crossed a line yesterday & I apologize. I was guilty of the very thing
I was cautioning against- I was carried away by my emotions.
I apologize to Lee, the moderators & my fellow forum members.
It won't happen again.
Respectfully,
John Witty

I missed your posts, and I see they are gone now.
I assume they had something to do with the recent goings-on.
Emotions tend to run high at times like this, and I posted very few comments regarding the recent atrocities. I found myself deleting quite a few posts before hitting the "submit" button.

It shows your character that you issue a public apology and it seems heartfelt. Atta boy.

John, sent you a pm.

John,
You don't owe us an apology, the thread you're referring to was not deleted because of your post.

Even though it happened over a decade ago, I'm saddened to hear about the loss of you daughter to a drunk driver. I can only imagine what you and your family have gone through.

Thank you for your civility, shared knowledge and contributions to the forum.

One thing I learned a long time ago on the forum, is that John Witty is a true gentleman.
The kind the world needs more of.

John Witty is a friend of mine and is the finest gentleman you will ever have the pleasure to meet. He needs not apologize.

I would like to be the third to Tony and Dick reporting that John Witty is a true gentleman of the highest order. I am honored to call him friend.

I have grown to truly respect the members of this forum and I am constantly amazed at the depth of the comments posted. You don't have to read many posts to see that our members are friendly, respectful, intelligent, thoughtful, compassionate, resourceful, witty, sincere and especially passionate. They are always willing to help, console, advise, enlighten and even rib when the opportunity (or need) arises.

I feel at home here. It's very much like spending time with family. In my family you never need to apologize for sharing your opinions. Wearing your feelings on your sleeve is an attribute and nothing to apologize for.

Your apology, although not necessary in my opinion, it is most sincerely accepted.

John, I wish you and your loved ones peace and happiness this holiday season.
Rick

I fall in the gutter at times.
Sometimes a spanking feels good.
Brings you back to reality.
Carry on my friends.

Thank you all for your comments.
Tragedy unfortunately comes to all of us in this life. I value your friendship and very much enjoy the time I spend on this forum.
Now, how do I get my wife to read all those nice things you all said about me ?
Merry Christmas & a hopeful New Year to all of you.
Best regards,
John Witty

Now, how do I get my wife to read all those nice things you all said about me ?

If your bride is anything like mine, (and I bet she is because they are all sisters), getting her to read it will be no trouble at all.
The problem will be getting her to believe it all.

Good luck, and God bless.

turnerriver,

I did not read your post but from your previous posts you strike me as a man of class and solid character.

I lost a child a long time ago. The events in Connecticut are causing me some serious grief. I want to go there and hug the folks who need it.
