It's obvious that today is a day that I shouldn't spend on BOTF; the tone isn't getting any better, clearly, and I don't have the time to make a post on arts, philosophy, Buddhism, or something else that means something to me and keeps me on the outskirts of multiple political skirmishes.

But I did want to stop by and say that, on reflection and a re-read, while I still stand by yesterday's assertions as to who crossed the line first, I think it's pretty clear that I crossed the line most.

This is, of course, perfectly in line with my character both claimed and actual; I may prefer a fist fight to a knife fight, or knife fight to a gun fight . . . but when someone starts bringing guns, I'm more than happy to jump to car bombs.

That said, however wronged I felt by you, there was certainly no call to jump to threats and such (though my one threat was a clever enough image that I'll gladly save it for later).

So . . . Sorry.

Have a good one (and that goes for the rest of y'all).
