Thanks. Now I understand. Ordinarily, I do read your posts. The reason I didn't read those posts was because they were attacking me for not taking advice that I didn't want, and getting personal too. I think I once wrote that your posts are among the most informative (or words to that effect). Whatever was going back then is I hope over. I think I'll pat ourselves on the back and say, it's too bad that the rest of the world can't do what we did. Have a tiff, figure out the problem, get over it. Thanks for the explanation. Regarding Friday, everybody loves Friday. Most people I know live for Friday. It's even been turned into an acronym, TGIF. I've known workaholics who literally didn't want to go home. I sometimes got jealous. Having a job that's so much fun that you don't want to go home is the definition of heaven in my opinion. Unfortunately, workaholics sometimes use work as a drug, to numb emotions. That's sad, not to mention that the kids suffer from an absentee parent. I've known more of them than the genuinely joyful type (I only knew one joyful type and she wasn't married; she also used alcohol so maybe it wasn't so joyful). Thanks again for your post. Talk to you later. ----- Original Message ----- From: To: lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 2/24/2006 9:19:28 AM Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: enviornoment Dear Andy, i do apologize...it was uncalled for--I think my feelings are still hurt because you won't read my posts (or didn't during some of our conversations...) When it was clear that LH had not read my post on the environment and what some of the Bush Admin pushes were, I think that I immediately thought of how you had done that, too--which he had and it struck me that it was somewhat pointless for ME to post facts to some as they were obviously not even looked at (even though the source was cited) Yes, it's Friday--usually your Happy Day--please enjoy it and know that I DO apologize... I should have just reminded LH that I had just given him the information on the oil situation in Alaska, and had asked about some of what Bush was doing in regards to opening up our National Parks ...
