Russell, you are a gentleman, a scholar, a fine graphics artist, one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met, and one of the best human beings I’ve ever had the privilege to meet.

I gonna go out on a limb here, I bet over time, with thoughtful consideration, respectful perspective and genuine courtesy you’ve built thousands if not tens of thousands of un-burnable bridges. Bridges that will take you everywhere you care to go.
Cheers.

Like I said in another post, real estate doesn’t allow you maximum usage of your fullest potential. You should consider getting into comedy writing for TV or Movies..LOL..
I can only imagine how you felt but two days have passed and I’m sure you’re planning on building NEW bridges. You’re a very funny, blunt, and Straight Arrow soul…

@ines I have met him, and after one dinner out, my sides hurt so hard from laughing that it covered over the pain of embarrassment. I met our waitress at a dinner a month later and she wanted to know where my “father” was…. He’s very memorable!

Silly me – I just discovered last night why you were burning bridges. So much happens when you take a few days off.
A great ending to the old year, burn a few bridges and never look back.
