101, I've been ignoring (mostly) your digs at me for over a year. I just figure that you keep trying to knock me off of some pedestal that you think I am on. Thank you for the grudgingly given respect.
Since this thread is all about eliminating the petty bickering that occurs, I will apologize to you right here and now for any offense that I may have ever aimed at you. I further resolve that I will not pick on you for any composition errors, nor even for any really bad ideas you might propose that I vehemently disagree with.
If you study the Stolen Saw thread, you will find that I did not take any offense at your repeated attempts to get me riled. With respect to that thread, I never even got scratched by anyone who attempted to paint me as the bad guy. If I didn't already expect that kind of response, I wouldn't have posted it.
By the way, the detectives told me they would return the confiscated saw to me this week, as the owner has not claimed it, and the prosecution cannot proceed.
For those who doubt me, read here:
