I am sorry you still feel that way Billy and I apologize for you saying that about Obama. It was indeed a quote from an article and not your words.



Thanks for the kind words Dan....ok, off to bed. Have to get up before the sun to drive to Bass Pro in Foxborough MA to insult more people...lol



I am kidding Unca Billy. Seriously I am!!!!

I am too Mini, and really I am and I hope you believe it.. I didn't want any of this to go as far as it did and I hope it doesn't affect our friendhip in any way. This is for Mac too as I value both as friends.

I admit I got P.O.d and carried away but a lot of that was caused by people who didn't have a dog in this argument sticking their nose in it



Thanks Again Mini,



Uncle Billy

No offense takin' UB,....I've got skin thicker than a T-Rex,...(have to have considering the business I'm in!!..LOL) People who don't live and work up here have no idea how deeply rooted we are in the auto industry....EVERYBODY is affected by it one way or another,..and 100's of thousands of family's livlihoods are DIRECTLY affected by it...in both good and bad times!! Trust me,..the auto workers up here are NOT jumping up and down with glee over Toyota's problem's!! This is going to affect the WHOLE industry and every auto consumer over time....we'll see strictor regulations,..increased gov't meddling and testing..and ultimately increased costs across the board for EVERY mfgr who wants to sell their vehicles here. All of those increased costs always get passed down in one form or another...The American consumers will ultimately pay for all of this in the end.



Anyway,....no need to apologize...being passionate about something keeps it interesting!!

Carry on,

Mac
