List and Dave,
Please do not construe my last message as threatening, nothing could be
further than the truth. I would gladly help Dave if he was in broken down or
in trouble.
I am not an angry person, just asking y'all to engage the brain before
putting the mouth in gear. Hell, I do it all the time, but I rarely insult a
person on purpose.
Which reminds me of a story;
Last time I purposefully insulted a person was in Germany in 1995. I lived
next door to a little old lady in a small German village. She was a
religious hypocrite always making snide comments to my children about how
they were going to hell because their mother was married to a non-aryan
foreigner. I decided to plant fast growing bushes along our gardens border
to block off her sight (and harassment) of my children. As I was planting
the bushes, she stood there and informed me that "In Deutschland man darf
nicht hecken uber 1,5m hoch am grenzen wachsen lassen" (In Germany you are
not allowed to grow bushes between bordering gardens that will grow over 4
1/2 feet tall)
My instant reply was "Vor die 1,5m hoch sind bist du 2m tief" (Before they
are 4 1/2 feet tall, you will be 6 feet deep)
She never spoke to me or my children again.
