******Posting! Don't change the core of A-bodies.

I have learned a lot of Mopar knowledge from a lot of Mopar people here in the last couple years.......
I have learned to be a bit more tolerant and understanding from Memike.
 
I admire your honesty. Sharing honestly involves risk.

My understanding is that evil resides in all people, restrained in some more than others but there nonetheless. We are all masters of self deception. We see it in others but rarely even get a glimpse of what resides in our own hearts. And yes, as I see it, we come into the world far more hard wired than most could ever imagine. The way we are is dictated by DNA. We have to play the hand we dealt

Exactly....we have to play the hand we are dealt. And if the hand I am dealt poses that much of a problem for someone than perhaps they need to move on...

Thank You. I don't have much in my life anymore....except honesty. Do I drop the ball? Sure do....and if I feel I was wrong will often step and admit it. Back when I was employed I was a very evil person, to the casual observer. To those that knew me, not so much.


Folks can say what they want, but a difference in opinion and how folks perceive things is what often starts the wars that happen not only but in real life. Hell, that is pretty much the reason why I resigned from being a Moderator here. Lot of folks have a hard time with looking at things differently. Look at some of the threads on here that have gone south. They start out as a simple disagreement. Someone says something, that because you have no way of perceiving how it was said, starts the fire. The other side of this conversation gets fired up from his perception of things being different than how it was supposed to be and next thing you know the name calling and bickering starts. Is this sort of behavior right? Nope....but it is nature of the beast.....like I was told time and time again by someone at the tail end of my time as a Moderator.....It is just the internet.....no reason to get so fired up over it...

Keep in mind that the above ramblings are MY OPINION .Feel free to disagree, I will not be hurt over it. Now will I argue with you over it as you are entitled to your own opinion.... Feel free to think I am a cold hearted bastard or what ever you chose to call me. I am who I am, and if my being the way I am I bothers you would suggest one of two things....either learn acceptance or put me on your ignore list....But to ask me to change the way I am so you don't have to put me on your ignore list is just down right childish....
 
It is ok to take a brake if you want/have to Mike. I did and now am back so I have no idea what in the world is going on......... but I know this site would not be the same with out you.
 
I thank the lord the older I get the thicker my skin gets, I refuse to let anything anyone says bother me. Kinda like a teflon duck nothing sticks. Come on Mike Mopar UP my man..do not run stick to your guns and keep on posting..
 
Sometimes I wonder if i,m too easy going. If I could have changed this.As a mod its sometimes hard to decide whether to step in and create a nazi police state where people are afraid to speak or be too loose to where people are afraid to speak due to others scrutiny. Its a fine line mods must walk.Just hoping I make the right decisions.

Your doing a great job like all the other mods.

Don't second guess yourself. You do a fine job.

Don't sweat it, Pete, you're doing a good job. Especially here, where the flame wars start over the stupidest of bulls***.
 
Yep you and all the mode do a super job here Pete =D>=D>=D> I am sorry to have stured this up :sad5: and
my days have been busy, fishing, getting things dun around the house and even enjoyed a fund raiser for the children in our area today, I almost did not go to it (broken tooth) but I used wax to cover it till Monday and did my best not to talk much and do what I said I would :-# it was 64 degrees this morning as I woke this morning and the moon was shinning so I said to my self, Self I need to get out of the house :shock: :clock:... Ok Treva said I needed to and I said I would be there :eek:ops:
I have got to just back up a bit and do like many folks do here and just look over some stuff and laugh it off, I love this great bunch of folks here and I ain't going anywhere :glasses7: and again I am sorry I got out of shape and had a little boy fit :silent: I was surprised as much as anyone seeing my wife post this up the next day :shock: I woke up and I was blind sided when I seen this thread.

You all rock my world and thank you for putting up with me here :worthles:

memike, I'm pretty much new here. Just lurking and learning and only recently getting involved. But in just this little bit of interaction, it's obvious that you are a huge asset to this site, greatly respected and would have been missed. You did what you had to do for yourself and I imagine everyone respects that.
 
Mike,in my opinion you did this forum a big favor and made every one realize what we are all here for which is Love of MOPAR'S and cars in general.

Thank you Luck :glasses7:I have been a blessed man to have so many great folks always looking out for me as I grow up :thumblef:, yes, I may be in my fifties but still learning and growing :hello2:
 
I agree.

Mods on this board are great.

Not too much, not too little.

It can be a full time job, if you let it.

...but that would suck for everyone.

err on the side of freeedom of expression, but intervene if personal attacks start, or just really, really inapropriate stuff starts becoming the focus.

That's how I always did it.

Hats off to the moerators.

Glad it's them and not me.

*In case anyone is unclear- mods have a thankless job, and I applaud them for their volunteer position to take extra time and responsibility.
 
Looks like you won that race by a nose Mike!! You're sporting a few more horses than he is though!! Crazy rider almost ran you off the road!!

Mike don't be sorry for this it would have happen if it was someone else.I am sorry it was you,and we don't put up with you. You are the biggest part of this family and should not have had to go through this.
 
I haven't been around lately, but it makes me sad to come on and see that memike has had troubles. I was relieved to get to the end of this thread and see some posts from him. Although I haven't had much direct interaction with him I always look forward to his wise thoughts and lighthearted humor. Glad to see your back memike :) :) :)
 
Great to see you back with your interesting post and pictures Memike!
