I can't say anything more than I am truly sorry. I screwed up. I confused e mails and id's and made accusations that were incorrect and false.
I am absolutely sorry for that and feel bad about it.

I have a 100 degree fever and a sinus headache for the past few days. I had my buttons pushed and jumped to conclusions. I was wrong, I confused Id's e mails pms and information.

Please accept my apology.

I'm sure that wasn't easy to write Al. Good for you.

Get well and the rest if use will form a posse and go after the "real" Jim for you ...

Just got done talking with Al on the phone, and boy does he sound sick! I understand the circumstances that started all this and I know being sick really doesn't help the problem, (with me at least) I must say I was a little hot last night myself, but I knew the truth would come out sooner or later. Long story short, No Problem Al, I'm glad we're still friends, apology accepted, Get well soon,...and remember, I STILL LOVE YA!!

They don't call him Mr. Big for nothing. Knowing both parties I honestly couldn't understand WTF was going on. Glad it worked out. Feel better soon, Al.

Now pardon me while I puke at the image of a group hug.

I was worried we'd miss out on a month's worth of TJ's trades, then when he came back we'd have to see the list.
Don't let that Polish temper get the best of you, Al. It might have contributed to your fever and vice versa.

You know, call me skeptical but I'm starting to see through this a little bit. Hang with me here ...

Just suppose yesterday Al calls Jim and offers a "deal". We know that Trader can't say no to a deal ... "Jim, let me post some crap about you, then I take it back and post a public apology. The members will love me for it and post all kinds of nice stuff about me. In return I'll cut you a deal on a strap." Of course Jim can't say "Yes" fast enough.

Huh, right? Come on, tell me YOU didn't think something along the same lines. I have a nose for this kind of stuff.

Wabbit,

Me too. That's what I get for mowing the lawn on a nice afternoon. :D

Al and Trader I'm glad everything is OK and as previously posted it takes a BIG man to admit to making a mistake. Thanks Al, now take 2 Advil's and drink lots of fluids.

Well considering none of us (especially myself) are known for our mistakes. I do feel a little let down. In the future Al, please try to reach the same level of perfection the rest of this group always displays.

Besides, Trader had it coming! :D

I guess I missed it too.

Oh well, I was always used to the public insults and the private apology. Somehow that never cuts it.
