 What the heck am I doing today? Shenanigans, General Tomfoolery or What? You never know |
No Idea What To Say, So just Typing Here Please allow me to start by saying two things. 1. I don't follow Politics or Politicians. I think almost everyone who read my reply to JACE says Thank You!  's post about the SOTU realizes that ("The Political Future"  ) So why did I reply openly to it, or reply at all? Beats me.2. I don't argue well, if at all. Both of these statements are very true. If I argue with someone, I usually clam up quickly. Why? Because I am not one who is quick on the reply. My mind works super-fast, except when I get in an argument. If someone makes a point that needs a counterpoint, I don't have one. At least not right away. Maybe 30 minutes later I'll have one, but not right away. And of course by then, it's too late. I feel I owe an apology to everyone who has responded to my reply to that entry. I have not responded to anyone because I don't know what to say. Am I wrong and they're right? Or am I right and they're wrong? I honestly don't know. All I know is that I should have done what I always do, keep quiet. To everyone, I apologize. Not for being wrong, not for being right. For opening what I see as a Pandora's Box. I dated a girl in High School, we never argued once. She never started an argument with me, and vice versa. We're still good friends 56 years later (we met long before graduating in 1972.) One day we were chatting on line, and somehow we got into a political discussion. You know what happened of course. We had an argument! She commented one time saying, "Buddy (My nickname growing up), we've never argued! Why now?" We both knew why, we both apologized, that was it. Over and done with. I apologize especially to JACE says Thank You! , Davy Kraken  , and Elisa, Stik of Clubs  }}. If I could take back what I typed, I would. I can't though, an Apology is about all I can do.I realize I should feel free to provide my opinion, but when you don't have all the facts, and can't provide a counterpoint to someone's point, you should stay out of it. Yes, I feel free to provide my opinions, but I keep them to myself for the most part, because I hate starting arguments or discussions that I can't contribute further to. I hate arguments in general. In other words, I know my limits, and live by them. For the most part.  |
