Civil Discourse

As I was shoveling snow, this morning, I decided to clear the snow off of the Nissan. When I did, I found the note I had left on the Pontiac which was parked across the end of my drive, the other day.


I thought the guy had probably just thrown it away, but he wrote a reply on it and stuck it on my car.


It's hard to see in a scan (apparently his pen was short on ink), but at the bottom it says,

"I apologize 4 the inconvenience."

Quite all right, old chap. Just don't let it happen, again.

    Pretty decent of him/her to reply - he/she could have just moved on. Makes you feel like he/she is just a regular joe/josephine like us. (Sorry for the political correctness - apparently the tendency to masculinize is noticed and commented upon during our performance reviews at work as "inappropriate", so I'm practicing - ha ha). --Joy

    Yeah, I actually was impressed that I got a reply. Most people, nowadays (regardless of gender), would tend to just slink off into the darkness.

    pfff...

    I'd a put it on your windshield alright...with a cinderblock! Put a note on MY car again!

    Na...I agree with Joy, decent indeed. As as we know decency is rare and at a premium these days. What like $100 a barrel now?

    I´m still torn on the sincerity of the message. But way to lay down the law.

Sorry about the word verification. I know you hate it...I hate it, too. But, the Spambots are suddenly coming out of the woodwork, and this is my first line of defense against them.

Anonymous comments are still gladly accepted.

So, all humans are welcome. Spambots can go to Hell.
