| Conas, first off, thank you. Second, I know that A. I doubt Jim was insulted by my comment. That requires a level of personal involvement he and I do not share. And if it did, it probably shouldn't have mattered anyway. I am not that important, and I should know that by now. B. If the guy couldn't handle a bit of critisism and/or sarcasm he wouldn't be where he is today. Again, I have no illusions on being able to hurt him. C. Just because he can take it, is no reason for me to dish it out. This really isn't about having insulted him or not, this is about how I feel I should behave towards people who matter to me. Regardless of whether I matter to them. D. I owe my life to this man and his music. And snide comments, impatience and sarcasm hardly seems a worthy response. sumply put: I have spent my entire life basing my actions not on what I think is right, but on how others (might) react to them. And I realise that the wrong move is ALWAYS the wrong move, and that a comment like I made here doesn't get any prettier just 'cause the person on the receiving end has thick skin or an ecually cruel and twisted sense of hunour. I think it is time I held myself accountable for my words and my actions, and this seemed as good a place to start as any. Doesn't mean I'm going soft, though. I am still me! -K- Warning: may contain traces of bitch. > I think you are being too hard on yourself Klasien. Your > comment was far from insulting.
