In Which I Formally Apologize to FrenchDoc
Primary tabs
For a comment on her last post in which I used a deplorable word. I am sincerely and completely sorry. You don't have to forgive me. I have always appreciated your work. I'm sorry you won't be around often anymore. I don't have your email, so this will have to do by way of apologizing. I hope you read it someday.
I just wanted to say that, b/c in the PB2.0, it's going to be very important for all of us to learn to say "I'm sorry," as well as "You're wrong!" Gossip, social status, cliques...these things must come to mean nothing to us, if we're truly going to have focus. I consider this a not just an "all about me" post, because I hope that it can start a conversation on how much the blogosphere has become mostly about personal swipe, insult, rumor, and the like. I think it's killing us, and I'm very sorry to have contributed to that which doesn't truly matter.
Again, FD. I apologize. If there's someone you regret offending in the blogosphere, consider it an open thread for the same.
...off to bbq. have a good holiday, kidz.

Hi CD
Sorry, that link doesn't work.
Lot's of sharp elbows on the intertoobs (mine among them I'm sad to confess). I'm just glad none of my family are on this blog....
Anyway, it's a beautiful Labor Day today (except in Lousiana I guess).

Wuh Happened?
I've been gone a couple of days & cannot fathom what this is about. The link doesn't work. I tried going back about 5 days worth of posts & saw nothing from French Doc...tho' I could swear I read something not that long ago. I've found FD's posts instructive.
The short version or a working link, please?
I missed it too, but see
FrenchDoc's post here.
I was just thinking this afternoon that Corrente was vibrating in some pretty weird modes lately. I didn't know the half of it!
I wish FD would come back. I wish people would avoid saying or implying STFU. I hope things will not fly apart completely. This place helps me think.
Policy not party!
just trying to do my part
it seems to me the 2 hardest things in the world are 1) saying, sincerely and openly/publically "i'm sorry" and b) saying in the same fashion "i was wrong, you were right." if we're to create a new world, we've got to get better in that, imho.
i'm trying to lead by example. and i fixed the link, sorry for that fuckup. lately i'm all about failing to properly link, it's like my html skillz are fading as i age, or something.
