    Please I want you to fully participate as I enjoy your spunk. Little misinterpretations happen all the time among everyone on forums.

    After giving it some more thought, I had a change of heart.
    Cooking with cards, I hope when you get back to playing you do what you said "kick some ass" especially if you read some of the how to books while staying overnight in a holiday inn. Just not to bust your bubble not all of my posts in the thread were about you, why would they be? You seem to have all the answers anyway.

    You want to be like all the regular members, well, welcome to the club. That is a compliment.

    He really was complimenting you and I don’t believe his earlier post was directed towards you alone. Fact is that it’s always better to gain experience while learning and it’s a general statement.

    "Especially if you read some of the how to books while staying overnight in a holiday inn"... I found nothing complimentary in that statement. I found nothing complimentary in anything he said to me, with the exception of him saying I had spunk.

    The point is that he was not addressing you in that post with anything negative.
