    And it was well-said. Since I can hardly resist, best plan is for me to evacuate the sports bar again, unless we have another good music draft.
    I'm just here for the baseball.

      "Had I known then of his circumstance maybe things would have ended differently."

      That is basically my main frustration.

      had a work meeting recently about a concern of mine. I opened by saying that I thought the major difficulty overall was that assumptions were made before communication. So in the spirit of not doing that, I asked how the issue at hand could have happened. I found out that someone was out on leave, a week-long fill-in was added, and they didn't want to bother me with what they saw as a situation not worth wasting my time over.

      Once I got the info, I was mostly satisfied.

      we're all human, and just because someone makes a comment you don't like doesn't mean that maximum aggression is required (and I ain't perfect, either on that).

        The only thing that would have been different would have been that I would have remained rather than leave for 2 years.

        I agree that communication is a two way street. I feel I have grown in that area, but again it takes two willing parties to effectively communicate.

        If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

            Girded Loins would be an odd name for a band.

              It's no secret that I'm not a big PapaDeuce fan. When he came back to RJ it actually led to me taking a break from the site because the board just became filled with what I personally deemed as pointless drivel. Could I skip it and not read it? Of course...but over time it just seemed like 60-80% was PD's schtick.

              It's very important to protect what we have as we have some great minds here, but I'd rather have 1 poster who posts maybe once or twice a week with well thought out and insightful analysis than I would have 10 PDs who just posts whatever random thoughts that cross their mind with no point. Hell, even Mith at his most annoying at least had a point - even if it was insane.

                  Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

                    there are 3085 anagrams for Girded Loins and none of them are good names for a band.

                        If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                                I think The Dingo Idlers would be a pretty good name for a band. Bluegrass/mountain music with an Australian feel.
