You are a good man. I apologize to you, as You are a true hero!!! I have not been myself, and I really felt bad that I treated you so badly. Please forgive me.

Thank you Scott, that was really nice. :)

Thanks Helen--It means alot to me.

It don't mean nothin.

I deserved that, and that is fine.

It don't mean nothin was our way of rationalizing shit we had no control over, either good or bad.
     I was never a hero.  The only difference between a hero and a coward is the direction ya run.  I always seem to run at the problem.

Good man Potter and you too Scott.  Takes a man to apologize and another man to accept said apology!

Now back to rowing!!!!

This was a nice read.   Makes me respect you both!

Classic Potterism..............

Thank you Scott.  When I read your posts I was at a loss and couldn't for the life of me understand what had happened to cause you to begin a campaign of hurtful posts uncharacteristic of you.

That you have had the courage to PUBLICLY apologize is a terrific thing and I am pleased to see that you are able to move forward; 

Potter, glad you are able to still be you, and that you explained your comment (even though I know you didn't have to) it helped the rest of us understand you just a little it better ;)

Hero?  Yes you get that label.  As a military wife, who sat behind waiting and wondering while my husband was sent off to war, I declare that I have the right to say you, Potter, as a veteran of a war, one that ended with you suffering injury and a population you signed the blank check to defend, turning on you instead of their government, are most definitely a hero.  You did not run for Canada.  That means you ran in the right direction - so according to your OWN definition, you get hero status.

Yes, Potter is a Hero. ALL Americans have their freedoms because of Magnificent People like him. ( Also where is my brother tanner)

Thanks to all vets for your service. I can't even imagine. Proud to be an American Legion member. SAL member post 1776.
