  if you are deal or no deal contestant, i have seen one guy turned down little more than $200,000 and he ended up getting $10.

  [edited] $141k deal and he ended up with $1,700.

  I do not agree. Anything you get is money you didn't have, and if you took a deal when there is a good chance you would know the answer, you would be forever kicking yourself. No guts no glory.

  An Apology ..... (of sorts)

  opinions are like certain orifices, everyone has one.. it's only if you insist that yours is the only one in the room that counts that you become like certain orifices....... with that in mind, i wish to offer a small but sincere apology to all members of our unique little community on jwn.

  (that even includes perry).

  now mind you, i don't apologize for the views i have, esp my political ones.

  And this has what to do with an apology?

  With that in mind, I wish to offer a small but sincere apology to all members of our unique little community on JWN. (that even includes Perry)

  Sincertity is highly questionable, and this "apology" is anything but "small."

  Now mind you, I don't apologize for the views I have, esp my political ones. And I don't feel that my arguments or the reasons behind them are any less relevant then my right handed political foils.

  Before you've even said what you're apologizing for, you're still throwing a jab in that your views are very important. Again this has what to do with the apology?

  But I do regret when I over argue my points.

  And there it is, buried in all of this other nonsense.

  Why I even go beyond stating my views with posters here such as Perry, or Deputy Dog, (and others who I choose to ignore) is beyond me. But I knew a long time ago, that they aren't changing.

  For that matter, I wonder if they realize, that I/WE aren't changing either!

  A dig at your ideological opponents, and a condescending shot at them.

  Suffice to say, some debates of late have become too personal, and have distorted the arguments. While I am confident my intents in these debates are relatively clear for anyone who can read them all and not get cross eyed, I wish to clarify that I don't hate anyone, as one has accused me of. I don't hate Christians. I was married in an Episcopalian Church, and my in laws are Christian. They actually act like Christ, and I love them. If ever I was to be a Christian, I would be like them. I think Jesus would approve.

  More static.

  I used a poor choice of words in saying that I hate certain world views. It is more accurate to say that I hate what many of these polarizing views cause, such as real hate crimes against gays, the mis-treatment of women, etc.

  Sincere apologies do not attempt to justify the behaviour being apologized for.

  Having said that, I am still at odds over many "right handed" views, esp social ones. And for anyone who quotes the likes of Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, or even Palin (bless your heart), well, I will be there to counter those statements or opinions.

  And, once again, reiterating your arugmentative behaviour that you're supposedly apologizing for.

  But I have acted in a way that even I disagree with. So I apologize for allowing it to get personal.

  Ohhh, even "you" disagree with it amongst us lowly turds. How thoughtful of you.

  I can't control what anyone thinks, and while I do care what (most of) you think, it isn't to a point where I am staying up at night. This apology is primarily because I think I was wrong, and when I am wrong, I do at least try to admit it.

  Thanks, it's good to know you don't care what we think.

  Otherwise, its THANKSGIVING!! I wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving, and a great start to the holiday season.

  (....even Perry)

  And yet another jab. Frankly, this entire post is sickening. Here would be an example of a sincere apology:

  "I've become too argumentative in recent posts, and I want to apologize for that. I offer no excuses, I take full responsibility, and I'm going to try to keep it from happening again."

  People who "apologize" and use it as a platform to write a 10 page didactic and condescending essay get stuck in my craw, as they do for most folks. An apology is an expression of regret for a particular action. That's it. You express regret for your action, and you put your action into a handful of words. Anything else is obnoxious and insincere.

  Here's a tip, if an apology takes more than a half dozen words, it ain't worth making. (and in most cases it's not an apology)

  It's starting to feel like the wrong time of month at a Catholic school slumber party around here.

  Here by the moorway you returned,

  And saw the borough lights ahead

  That lit your face--all undiscerned

  To be in a week the face of the dead,

  And you told of the charm of that haloed view

  That never again would beam on you.
