Apologies
« on: July 17, 2011, 07:57:58 AM »
I'd like to make a public apology to Three Bears. I made some rude and unwarranted comments on his classified ad and for that I am sorry. To anyone else who may have been offended by my comments I also apologize. Most importantly I would like to apologize to GB, Tim and the rest of the GBO administration.

Spanky,
  I takes a good man to admit when he's wrong and apologize. Anytime you wanna vent about something, feel free to send me a PM. We'll laugh, cry or roll our eyes in amazement together and privately.  ;)




Thanks, Dinny

I don't equate PC with Forum rules.
Actually I did as Spanky did on another Site not realizing it was a Buy& Sell forum 'cause I didn't bother to   read it right.
I got spanked as well.

Spanky,
 
We all make mistakes, just got to learn from them and try and not to repeat them.  I hope that you can mend all the fences that need to be mended.

I know that this is not "pc" correct to say, but you just voiced what some of us feel.  Personally, I got a kick out of you trying to negotiate the price down.  But as the boss man says; "rules are rules", even if you don't like them.  Hope everything works out.

Its a mans job to price his horse and the buyers job to decide if its worth. A man without a horse is a foot which means any price might just be good enough.

I guess that just shows that there is always that one exception!
I won't say anything here about him because I can't think of anything good to say.
Yes I can----He's good at lying!!!
