Hi Gary, Well, if I've stepped on toes, it certainly is NOT an intentional stepping. I strive to be proper as much as I can. Most of you know me as being that way. Forgive my yucko self if I've messed up. All I know is from my own personal knowledge of a lot of our old timey folks. I'll not, in public, put down on folks unless they've more or less pushed me and/or my buttons (red-haired temper) However, I do know these 3 folks and from my experience, they're, as i've mentioned herein, GOOD FOLKS and I thought I'd share that. As I said, I'm sorry if I've messed up. I'll stay a little more off the airwaves then.

Half truths, blatant lies and inuendos are what's put our club in a downward spiral. Correct and accurate information is first and foremost to those that want the truth.
