    Well...I thought long about remaining silent about this furball, and -typically- I can't. I'll probably get punted from this forum, but...

    I'm sorry, but that thread was in no way an insult or disrespecful to the bikejournal.com site; it was just a trip into the alfalfa based on the unfortunate combination of their initials and some members who have quick minds and appreciate a little bawdy humour. We could have been talking about blue jeans, or the Toronto Blue Jays.

    I'm sorry, but we didn't exactly break new ground in the Field of Immorality. You can easily hear much worse things on almost any tv channel in N/America after 8pm any night of the week. (not that that's a Good Thing, just that it Is). Or on the radio. Or almost anywhere.

    I'm sorry that some folks read thru the thread and couldn't manage to find the "Back" button but had to keep reading until they finally became offended.

    I'm sorry, but I've changed my mind. I'm not sorry that I participated; it was fun, and you ladies are a hoot. At least those of you who don't take life too seriously!

    I'll just go into the corner and await the Boot.

    Susan had a legitimate concern about how the posts on this site reflect upon her business.

    It's unfortunate that some of you can't seem to understand or are unwilling to respect that.

    I agree. This is Susan's business and she has an absolute right to ask us to behave in ways that keep her business healthy. Period. She's doing us a big service by providing the forum, and I believe we owe her thanks and cooperation. We're in her house here.

    Granted. And Thank You Susan and Moderators for providing us with this great forum. I sincerely mean that.

    But consider this: with all due respect, TE is packed with thousands of helpful, informative posts. Will one off-colour (albeit hilarious) thread break the business?

    If the answer is "yes", it will be a sad day indeed. Very sad. In extremis.

    I'm with those who are saying this is Susan's business

    My personal apologies, Susan, for my part in placing you in an awkward position.

    It was fun, but it was venturing into non-TE-typical territory - and there are plenty of fora out there for that kind've banter.
