I am not concerned with somebodies opinion that does not know me. I care about the people that I care about and care about and know me. Those that know me know I am what you see....I dont put on a false face and I express my opinions regardless of whose feathers get ruffled. I try and be respectful, but many times it seems if you are of a differeing opinion and express it, it is deemed as attacking.....nope, I just speak whats on my mind. if so and so says something, and I agree or disagree, I willlet them know. Like I said, i try to do it respectfully, but it doesnt get looked at that way by some. My banning from the porch is a perfect example......it's the only place I am banned from, and I am only banned because I did not agree with everything said on the porch and I expressed my feelings...sometimes I come across a bit harsh, I readily admitt that....you know us class A personalities<gggg>, but regardless, I mean no disrespect to anybody when I post. Actually, I take that back...I have had some unkind words about dealer, but then again, I was not too thrilled with her actions which I thought were biased and underhanded. Pm'ing people behind my back and etc......when attacked or wronged, i will stand up for myself, as I would expect others too as well........Heck SB, I even sent Dealer a very nice get well note for her mom...told her I was sorry for our differances and I wished the best for her her mother and I told her me and my wife would say a special prayer and then offered her a happy easter. She didn't even have the courtesy to respond........oh well, no worries on my end. You would be amazed if you saw the pm's I have gotten both telling me they think it's a shame I was banned and they missed my posts and others who are not aware I was banned and want to know where I've been, and that they miss reading my thoughts and opinions. Oh well, life goes on.....have a great weekend keith
