LAST EDITED ON Jul-25-07 AT 03:16AM (MST)[p]Burning crosses and walking on water is apparently more your world than it is mine these days Manny.
Many on this site have no idea of what the campfire used to be. With the exceptions of the old timers yourself included, and some new friends, slanted remarks towards me mean nothing. I think it's quite apparent I can hold my own.
But for you to refer to me as "retarded" is completely unacceptable. Is that what your good book teaches, to slam those that have been there for you during your darkest hours?
I like a handful of others took you and your family into our hearts, thoughts, and prayers for years Manny. Yet you have neither the decency, common courtesy, or respect to take that into account and at least pm me or address me directly before referring to me as "retarded."
This is why it's time throw the dirty laundry on the front lawn and why I am going to let this fly here instead of on a pm.
You back slam me on some obscure post and for what? To try to score points with some newbies who have no idea of what the campfire was or what it ever stood for when Venado and I asked Brian to put it together almost a decade ago.
It's easy to get swallowed up in the carnival atmosphere that has permeated a place once considered a sanctuary. Our little campfire was once a calm and friendly place devoid of subjects
deemed controversial ...a mule deer hunter's campfire.
The campfire has changed so dramatically which is why most of the originals don't post anymore. For many who arrived here the campfire had already changed, so they don't know any better....but you do.
I've given you multiple opportunities to recant your statement without reply. On top of all of that what in the hell is up with all the holy roller crap. Now I don't make it a habit to disrespect others faith, but you know damn well it don't belong here at the campfire.
If any of the "old timers" were to tell me I was out of line, I would take it to heart and probably rethink my words and apologize if I offened them. It's all about respect and loyalty Manny. After 10 years our little kids have become young adults and as a group we still pay respect to each other on the occasions we can get together like Kfish's "Howdy Post" even if it's just to say Hi.
So if you want to restore our relationship, start by taking back your "retarded statement", remember those that sincerely stood by you for years, and leave the scripture for another time and another place. Heed 202 and TFinalShot words Manny. In return I will humbly ask you for my forgiveness. Like I mentioned before I take no joy in banging heads with you Manny we go back way too long.
