As I said, it WAS A JOKE.
Hey, John, after wisecracking about the people you "pity"
It really wasn't a wisecrack, I feel sorry for folks who think they have
little or no control over their own fate.
and huffing around
about how you take advantage of opportunities while others don't,
I really wasn't huffing either, Most everyone I know is taking advantage of
the opportunities available, I probably appreciate them as much or more than
most though.
it might
be a good idea to fly a joke flag from your mast or something.
That would be a good idea : ) and my wife would agree heartily as she often
comments that my sense of humor is exceedingly dry ; ), see, I'm getting the
hang of it already!

At least use an emoticon. They can be very helpful. For example:
d8-0 That means the Yankees are playing the Tigers and Soriano just
walked.
Man on first.
d8-) Johnson hit one up the middle and moved Soriano to third. Runners on
the corners.
d:-) Jeeter just sac'd Johnson over to second. I've taken my reading
glasses
off to get a better look.
:-)) Posada just hit a two-RBI single; Soriano and Jeeter home. No outs
yet.
I've tossed my Yankees hat and my double chin is showing.
d:-Q Yanks are up 2-0. Recovered hat. Time for a smoke.
Get the idea? It's a very useful language. g
