Hello, everyone. I would like to apologize for my behavior of the other night. I realize that there are some people who think Internet challenges are silly, and some who make them regularly as a point of honor. I guess, I fall somewhere in-between. Nevertheless, the reaction to my little flame-war with Tez has been fairly negative, and I must therefore assume that I was at least partly to blame.
Mainly, I would like to apologize to my instructor. I will avoid mentioning his name so as not to cause him any further embarrassment, but he knows who he is.
I will also apologize to anyone else who feels that personal vendettas and flame-wars are a waste of Forum space. While it is true that they can sometimes add drama to an otherwise boring intermission between MMA events, they can also degenerate into ugly, petty name-calling contests - such as last night.
Tez, I apologize to you for calling you names, some of which were probably offensive to you. However, I only meant it in a spirit of fun until you turned it personal. I don't know why you did that. I guess you felt provoked. Whatever.
I have been going through a difficult personal time in my life, maybe the most difficult I have ever faced. It sounds like an excuse, but I am not myself lately. And this isn't the first time this has happened. Therefore, perhaps it would be better if I resumed the leave-of-absence I meant to take a few weeks ago but wimped out on. I don't post on here to start trouble, but lately trouble seems to be finding me, so I will avoid it. I thought my presence on the Forum was good for the Forum, but now I am starting to doubt that. So, I will leave. It's not a big deal, anyway...it's just the Internet. I need to learn that.
Seeya, folks.
