Torn,

I never thought for a minute my comments would provoke you to want to "duke" it out so to speak. So, perhaps one day, we will meet and let's let the chips fall where they may, agreed?

As far as Mr. White is concerned, I just felt it was very poor taste to comment negatively about a man that had just passed away. And I still do, whether he was a homophobe or anti-whitesocks with black shoes or whatever.

Let the man rest in peace and be a grown up about it. For that matter, let ANY man or woman of any creed, color or orientation rest in peace when they have passed on.

Nobody is perfect, Mr. Torn and one day our turn WILL come up. Would you appreciate it if someone "out" there began to call you a "sweater tying over the shoulder fool" AFTER you have passed away? I think not.

And finally, "HATE" is a terrible emotion, concept, and way of life. Hate makes all those that embrace it, less human, and certainly less compassionate. And besides, none of us are in a position to judge anyone for whatever reason.

Since its so close to a NEW year and since it is the season for resolutions, I resolve to this: To hate HATE, and not to judge anyone of any kind.

P.S. Except for the Ravens. They are still assholes.
