It’s my own personal feelings as an American, as a former serviceman, and as my own personal self, so yeah, it is _my_ issue, and I said as much, but **DtC** and I seem to have reached an understanding and I bear him no ill will or hard feelings, so…what’s your story?

My story is: I was surprised that, after you & Diogenes cleared the air, you felt compelled to come back and say you’re “not sorry”. It just struck me as a sort of obnoxious thing to do, especially considering how gracious he has been in this thread. In my opinion, starting this thread (with all the profanity in the title) was way out of line, and you don’t seem to want to acknowledge that.

I’ve said what I have to say; I’m ready to let the matter drop as long as everyone else is.

I would extend that to any and every so-called reality show. But then, I enjoy watching professional wrestling, so I guess I should protect my own glass house.

So, is that like the new cabbage soup diet? Egg whites for breakfast, tuna for lunch, and egg whites for dinner.  
I want the skeletal facial structure AND the washboard abs…

God, I need to stop thinking about losing weight!

I would say not; have you ever eaten tuna, everyday, for a week? You start to smell of tuna, you start to piss tuna stank, you start to dream of fish coming to seek vengence.

It ain’t pretty…

I watched pro wrestling religiously for two years, and I never recall seeing anything that even remotely _resembled_ reality. (Especially Stephanie McMahon’s hair.)
