Flyertalk is something. Isn't it.

Since Arturo has asked me to comment, I will. (Arturo has the power).

I'm paraphrasing 2 of the 4 original sentences I wrote, so bear with me.

"Is that her original picture, or someone else?

I think it was a fair, if not too quick to judge, comment. I get plenty of mail from Classmates.com and other websites that have these really great pictures in the heading.
When B...AA showed that picture, I was sure it was a joke. I was really surprised that 'everyone was so gullible' (my original quote), but it looks as if I was the one who was had.

But aside from that, I'm really disappointed in many of you that 'encouraged' this, with your words... to go on.

It certainly is amazing from my above quote, and the above paraphrase that those 2 statements, (and relatively innocently said) were inflated to make a mountain out of a molehill.

And to think I was accussed of being prejudice. What was that all about?

If you could have seen the private e mail I received from B...AA you would have thought I was a witness to a crime, and didn't come forward.

I didn't read this post again till it was a few pages old. And I can assure all the naysayers that I will NOT be opening it again.

I have enough trouble dealing with the real world that I don't need the aggrevation of a post gone bad. Just not worth it.

I'm sorry that some of you may disagree with me. Oh well. I'll get over it.

So in conclusion, to B...AA, I'm sorry that this post got out of hand. But lets face it, the cyberworld loves this stuff.

I'd like to say thank you to the folks with the nice comments. And shame on the folks that egged this thread on.

spelling edit
