My apology is towards the end of message 174935

Here it is again:

I apologized that my phrasing of my opinion caused problems.


Lisa:

An apology that boils down to "sorry you misunderstood" is equal to 
no apology at all.  Is it really that hard for you to simply say "Oh, 
I'm so sorry I offended anyone; I certainly never meant to do so?"  
You see, once you were informed that people were offended, instead of 
apologizing in any way, you began your next post with, "At the risk 
of offending you again ... ."  You've really said nothing that makes 
me believe that you were sorry you offended anyone -- just that you 
were sorry we misunderstood your intentions.  Do you really wonder 
why anyone continues to be offended by you?

guzuguzu:

Your self-deprecating comment above, the
one that starts off "but then, my past..." is exactly the type of
sarcastic phrasing that you said was so offensive to you in my posts.

Lisa: 

Glad you caught that.

Oh, and va32h -- 79 degrees indoors IS far too hot.  You're right, 
hubby is wrong, end of petty argument!  ;0)
