Most eloquent verbalization skills, Tom...And you guys thought I had died or summat......
I've been lurking here from time-to-time. Just nothing really to post. But now that boating season is upon us - LOOKOUT!!
Anyhow.....I too would like to say welcome keviseeb. And will apologize if any of my comments in this thread appeared to be directed at you. I believe I was the one that mention that there's 3 sides to every story.
I'd also like to add that in fairness to all, we innocent by-standers need to remember that even if we do hear both sides, we're still at a disadvantage insofar as not being exposed to the "dynamics" that can occur between the two party's. Verbal and non-verabl comunication can be very powerful. Some would say that non-verbal is the most critical. And IMHO, I would agree. Let's face it....which do we respond to quicker, the wife saying "take the trash out" or giving us "the look"?
My point being that jpeezy and keviseeb probably had several conversations; the tone of each we'll never know. Hell, there may even have been times that one or the other party was attempting to be helpful, yet the other party's perception was just the opposite.
It sounds like, that in the end, a palatable solution was achieved. It may not have been exactly what either one wanted, but a solution that both could live with. And both party's appear to still respect each other. That's a good thing in my book.
Tom
