I did not brag the whole weekend about how i was not gonna pay registration for a stupid hat. I don't know where that came from. Ya, I made a joke but that's just what it was ....a joke. As far as me being out of town...yes, I was suppose to be in Cali but my plans fell through again. The only reason I tried to plan somethin else for Memorial Day is because one day you said it was cancelled and then it was on and then off. I was merely offering another avenue for people to have something to do in case they couldn't or didn't want to go to Cedar Creek. Yes, I have put in my suggestions as far as meet locations and times....so has Josh and nobody complained when he did. I didn't think it would be a big deal. Some of my sarcastic attempts at humor in the past haven't come across as planned and I made SURE afterwards when someone took offense that I made it clear I was not tryin to hit below the belt. NEVER EVER EVER has that been my intention.
Chris and Kelly, ya'll should have said something to me privately and voiced you problems with me instead of in front of everyone else. That is the only reason I am on the defensive and I am sorry. I just got my computer up and runnin so that is why I have not posted on here before now.
Ed, I dont know anyone in the group that doesn't like you so don't think that! I am glad you are happy in your situation. But this is just a WHOLE new ballgame for me. I am not use to having to scrounge around to make ends meet. I'm not saying ya'll are. I dont know...nor do I want to because it's not my business. I am not saying I have had it easy either. I've always been just about at that comfortable level and I guess I'm still getting adjusted to where I am now. Bouncing around from job to job surely isn't helping my stay positive either.
Anyway, my appologies to you to...and to everyone else.
And also...hats off to Chris and Kelly for pulling off what seemed a 1st class event. Next year, God willing, I will be there for the long haul. But, should I not be welcome...well...I dug my own grave on this one and have nobody to blame but myself.
Thanks again to everyone else that helped put on such a wonderful event.
Till National Meet 2003..............
