No one is poking, a few of us just like to joke once in a while. Most of us including yourself work alone, If I stayed 100 percent serious all of the time, I'd go out of my mind. This is an invitation. Have a little fun once in a while, it's makes the loneliness of the shop a little more enjoyable.
That's true, and maybe why I am so out of My mind lately, In fact i've been about as sharp as a stump lately. Sorry for misunderstanding, and possibly taking things too seriously. This last year has'nt went as well as it could for Me, seems like everything has worked against me, as well as many plans I had shot down in flames, and I'm just spinning My wheels, so I suppose My Mind Is'nt as open as It should be. I try to be, but like you said too much time in the shop, too little money, and not enough time out with the boys to open My mind up like I have been used to in the past, may have just got the best of me. My appologies if I was being too serious.
You know I could'nt get mad at you anyway bud

, Your one of the few that has taken me at face value, and still always been there to offer a lending hand when I needed help. I know Your one of the good ones, and nothing's changed

I can have kind a raw sense of humor Myself ocasionally, just harder for me to read online I suppose without the stare down and delayed grin that may take place in person

. I once had a very close friend that was My best friends brother, and We always had this thing we did like that when we were feeling crowded, It use to freak people around us out that did'nt know better, and they would start to clear out of the way to make room. Funniest thing you ever saw. we would sit and laugh our a's off afterwards. Ofcourse We never held back on each other either, he had a nack for hitting a nerve, but was just a game for him or something, and part of him. One minute he showed the upmost respect for you, questioning about something you had done that interested him, and really seemed to be talking up to you, instead of as an equal, then the next minute he would bring up the most ebarasing about you he could, and start broadcasting it, just to ruffle your feathers

. he would bring up things that happened 10 years before, and would never let you live it down, did make me alittle nuts sometimes, and it was hard watching his back, because you can only imagine how he was with people he was'nt close friends with, and did'nt understand him. The reason I mentioning this story is to show that if I could take him for all those years, I can take more then it seems, just hard to read things through the web is all. I miss Him dearly, lost him over 2 years ago to the evils in the world. He lived alot harder then I did, and lived for the moment, that's something I could never get him to change for any long period of time, so I guess it just all finally caught up with him once we started getting older.
Anyway as you can tell I'm just in one of those fogs, and sorry for raining down and misunderstanding, so please excuse Me. My bad, My appologies, and you guys have a good fathers day.
