Hi mike. How come you use a small "m" in your first name? Just curious?
Ye ol sinner Brian.
m? Humility, Brian..humility.
Well, not really, even though I'm bashful and afraid to say what I
really think. I was on another group once with four or five 'Mikes'.
It was confusing, so to show how selfless and caring I am, I changed
it to mike instead of MIKE
This caused another problem. The pecking order had now been changed,
so I had to re-establish my 'rank'. Becoming a number "1" would have
been rude and self centred...sorta like calling YOURSELF an "ACE", so
I settled for being number two and let them fight it out for the
premier position.
Some claim the II signifies something cheap and inferior to the
original product, as in Mustang and Mustang II. I respectfully decline
comment.
Doing all that seemed easier than getting a life. I hear they now have
little carts you can push around in them there grocery stores to hold
your flour an' chitlins...wow..
mike
Well a fella like yourself with so much to say should bump it up to a
capitol but I respect your modesty. Your kinda mad at Ace these days?
