Just Trying to Be a Good Father

You got the message from a humorous post about something that happened quite some time back in an Applebee's parking lot? I guess you don't eat at any restaurants that serve liquor, or shop at grocery stores, or get gas at convenience stores where they serve beer. Well, my hat is off.

Brother, there was no message.

I guess if you saw it that way, maybe we are to assume that you were sending messages with your talk of switchblades and automatic weapons?

I think you may be taking all this way more seriously than I do.

You know, we might accidentally even like each other if we met in person, and since for all I know, you might be an elder, I am going to just avoid conflict with you.

This medium isn't the best at communicating the more subtle nuances that face-to-face communication can.

I apologize for my offensive behavior and too flippant attitude.

I accept your admonition, and won't fuss with you any more.

Coonskinner, I deleted my post because I did not want to make the discussion personal. I apologize for crossing the line. I still feel the same about the principle that I was trying to discuss but I do not want to make things about personality. For what it's worth, I think any Father who spends time with his kids is a good dad. That wasn't the issue I was bringing up. Sorry if I offended you, and no I don't carry guns or knives anymore.
