I've been remiss with my thanks.
I don't deserve four hearts. I've said some really insensitive things since I've been here and have learned a lot about myself that I didn't know. I've even been TS'd and am only here today because of Skinner's willingness to let me try and redeem myself for accidentally voting the wrong way in a poll (surely I had pissed off my DU friends before that).

It's hard to thank a group of people for something you don't think you deserve. It is for me anyway. There have been many times I've awakened in the morning and came to this site to see what is the most current news, while at the same time avoiding responses to my posts because I'm not comfortable with what I said the night before (damn, is that the signature of an alcoholic?).

I'm just a guy. I'm humbled that DU'ers even respond to my posts.

This is such an awesome place...

3. Can I jump in...
and say thanks to whoever gave me a heart?

I was shocked that someone noticed one of my very few posts,
and even more so that they thought I deserved a gift.

Thank You whoever you are.:toast:

4. I can't speak for everyone.......
....but I sure as heck have made some posts I regretted! I have even written the admins to delete them after a guilt-ridden evening.
We don't all think clearly 24/7, and our point is not always taken as intended. The best thing to do is just apologize and move on..
