Oh gosh, fay. I'm so sorry. My post about how I found it on the internet was supposed to be my way of saying I'm sorry I said that without actually doing the research myself. That I sometimes believe stuff because I read it on the internet only to be corrected later by more well informed people such as yourself. Since I was wrong about the extent to which the government condones child prostitution I assumed I was probably wrong about the elephant exploitation as well. I shall now attemp the difficult process of removing my foot from my mouth. I only hope I can keep it in my shoe where it belongs.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Generally, the best way to apologize (and have it be accepted as such) is to simply say you are sorry. And mean it.

I was trying to apologize and be funny at the same time. I guess I should cancel that comedy tour.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, just make sure it doesn't overlap with your apology tour.

We all slip in the guac from time to time, Laga. It's clear that your apology is heartfelt (to me, at least).

Our wings are not tired.
FWIW, Laga, I understood that your comment was meant to be an admission of relying on questionable internet research and that you were poking fun of yourself.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
As many things as there are wrong with Word 2003 (seriously, if I ever find the programmer who thought up "Update links on Save" I will Kick.Him.In.The.Nads), I must say, I LOVE the "Reveal format" function with a white-hot passion. No more, "Why the hell is it doing that? How can I make it stop?" There's still "What moron thought that was a good way to format?", of course. But it's good to have a little mystery in life.
Sounds like a good day, beth.

We all slip in the guac from time to time, Laga.It's true. I've tripped too.
It's clear that your apology is heartfelt (to me, at least).And it wasn't at all clear to me, at first, so I mentioned it.
