  2. Thats cool brad . i reallydont mind because i read back and it does actually look like im talking to long john in two different manners . it wasnt the case .

    And i will support anyone when they write an article Even if they are not new to the site , i did with long john AFTER i finished ranting at this other person . i should of made my intentions more clear .

    its done now tho eh , and thank you for your understanding .

  3. Hey Brad mate .

    The Thing About My personalities ill clear up now .

    On the article the bit where i was scathing was not aimed at long john or the article That long john wrote , i actually liked his piece ,

    it was actually aimed at paul who had commented on the article , i was referring to another article he was being out of order on Towards me and a couple of other people it just so happened that he got My goat again on the comments in long john's article .

    Just wanted to clear any confusion up , because it looked like i was talking to long john but in fact i wasnt .

    Sorry if you had to read anything unneccesary , i indeed am a nice person but some people i cant deal with .

    cheers .

  4. many personalities - am afraid am a little lost .... that went right over my head ?

  5. Where do you train horses and what events do you train them for; we raise horses, and that was my best atletic experience in life.

  6. Girls got to play softball during gym in grade school, but that to me was not the same as playing with the boys. Girls' sports were not supported by the schools like boys sports were until a law was passed that girls should have equal oportunity in all school sports just like the boys always had. And now girls are even allowed to try out for football and wrestling--I would have loved that when I was in school.

  9. Thanks, Adam. I was aware of this, and probably should have mentioned it somewhere. Most impressive thing was what he did after he was injured, so I guess I was focused on that.

  10. Just an FYI, in case you weren't aware... Tiger ruptured his ACL while running, not while playing golf.

    Have a great day.
