I didn't even notice that knife was shap. I wasn't "offended" (notice the
proper puncuation there not stars ;) ) I have a saying that my granfather
passed on to me. "No one can hurt you unless you let them." What was meant
by that was,if you don't let things other's say to you get to you it won't
hurt you. There is several parts to his saying but I wont go into detail. So
as kids used to say sticks and stones my break my bones but names will never
hurt me ;)
 In my words "Don't worry no insult taken, not to mention why would I want
to leave this group? After I get to know you. I have found someone for my TX
jokes. ;) see ya'll Merle  (gotta have one of my poor grammer ect in there
after all i did leanrt it while i was in texaz)
