billrquimby Report post Posted January 27, 2012 I apologize for getting into this juvenile argument, William I mean Bill. I'm out and done, I normally am pretty easy going, that should have not gotten to me. WHT-MTNMAN: I apologize for my uncalled-for comment. It seems I get grumpier as the years zip by. Although I am no way comparing myself to him, I am reminded of Jack O'Connor who would "be stricken with the vapors" upon seeing "muley" used for mule deer. Even he could not stem the tide. Again, if you want to call a taxidermist and his art "taxi" or a javelina a "javi," you should be able to do so without suffering criticism from this grumpy old man.

Bill Quimby Bill I sure appreciate the apology, and I apologize for my return remarks. I have more formal education than most and I also appreciate the English language and the written word, but often times regress back to my redneck self.

billrquimby Report post Posted January 27, 2012 Thanks, WHT-MTNMAN. Call me when you know you'll be in Greer next summer (we're in the book) and we can shake hands over coffee or lunch. Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
