... with hat in hand and head bowed ...

That being said telling me to grow up...I consider that to be fighting words...hence why Sancho said it and I've been ignoring him... I equate growing up to having no girls no happiness and the only hope you have is death...so when I read that it's the equivalent of someone saying go kill yourself.

It was unprofessional of me to use those words, and you found the chink in my armor regarding attitude.

For that mistake I also apologize.

For the record I could NEVER ask or induce someone to end their own life. That magical collection of miracles is far too precious to me to suggest or commit something so heinous. I lost the only creation I was able to stir into life many years ago, and I've made a promise to my Angel that I'll keep until fate and my Karma act for me rather than with me.

I love you, Angel.

I'll endeavor to refrain from adding anything, to GC or VoA, when emotions are the driving factor in a response.

As was mentioned in another post ... growing up sucks. I hate it!!! I wish I could be a child again, but nobody's invented a time machine or a DNA reversal injection, so I'm stuck with what I've got ... even if the container is falling apart, has been repaired more times than I care to admit, and is being held together with a combination of steel, titanium, Kevlar, carbon fiber, and lots of chemically-sterile sewing thread.

If you're able to remain young, I'd strongly recommend what was coined a number of years ago in a sneaker commercial ... Just Do It!

I depart the room humbly, with a renewed sense of responsibility, and having learned from yet more of my egregious mistakes.

With Respect .........
