you are crazy!
ohh bevis i am a bad bad blobber. I must confess I have aimed some rather sniping remarks at you from the safety of my blog. You see I kinda sorta maybe made some rash judgements about you (you know all that CAPSLOCK in your name is a little intimidating & i don't respond well to that). I thought that "methinks not" meant that you would not consider asking someone who knows a lot about glue for glue advice. But then I went away and thought about it some more and have now come to the conclusion that you were probably just refering to my lack of content in my blob of a blog. I guess I could just delete the comments, but then I think that would be cheating.
I hope you will accept this as my most sincerest apologies.
With parking ability like that. my next car will be an audi.
djali, first, apology accepted. Thanks for your willingness to come on here and publicly say what you've said.
Second, no one has ever asked me about the caps in my profile name. Perhaps it's an acronym? (It's not, but no one asked - that would be a valid reason, though.) It's certainly not meant to be intimidating.) :)
Third, you're right that the 'methinks not' comment was a reference to your blog not (at that time) having much on it, and the appearance that you didn't intend to write more. If anything, it was meant as a mild encouragement for you to blog something (more often).
Fourth, I actually very much appreciate the glue-guy recommendation, and not having had much time is the only reason I haven't already gone over there and asked this guy for any glue advice he may be able to provide me with. (That, and I didn't know if you were kidding, so I was going to suss the dude out first before possibly confusing him with random glue questions from a stranger!)
Fifth, I'm a nice guy and you seem like a nice guy, so this may all work out for the best. Please note, however, that I'm not gay.
Sixth, as opposed to what your 'rather sniping remarks' (to use your own words) on your blog suggested, I am certainly able to see the humour of self-deprecating remarks and irony and nonsense. I live for such amusement and revel in such 'base humour' myself, never fear!
Anyway, six is quite enough points to make about this, so thanks again and I hope to hear from you at some point later in the blogosphere.

(My name's only in caps because I like it that way - does it make me an egotistical prat? Possibly. I was just aiming for something different, ... and it was a 'statement' - if anything - on the lack of capital letters elsewhere in the blogosphere. Including where they SHOULD be, like at the start of sentences and for people's names. I prefer capital letters where they should be, so I use them for my name to make the point. Don't feel you have to use them when addressing me. 'bevis' is fine.)
Anyway, be good. Or be good at it.
Dear Bevis,
This is such a nice response, I really didn't expect it. Thank you so much for accepting my apology. Now you really DO seem like a nice guy. Once again, I'm REALLY sorry. I seem to have a habit of assuming the worst in people, however, I do endeavor to put put an end to this.
Yes I'd like to think it's been all 'for the best', though of course not in a gay way*. Look forward to reading your next post and catching you round the traps ie. Ms Fitz's bloggings.

PS. I like to play with CAPS too :)
PPS. I know my blog is a little brief at the mo, I haven't really got started. Like you, I'm also a bit busy just now.
*I'll let you in on a little secret: I'm a much nicer girl than I am a guy.*giggles ala Japanese school-girl* Ahh this thing they call the internet, WHAT FUN!:)
Let's cut this back-slapping-fest off here, Djali, otherwise we'll end up kissing.
:)
