Could you tell me EXACTLY what makes you think a Dove is peaceful?
I have never understood this.
Guests are always polite, I am always polite.
From behind a screen the only muscles that flex are those between your ears, that is why the I-net is the great leveller.
I run multiple programs from my work and this means that my time is 'snatched' from the moments of calm, the immediacy and and then later editing is as a result, you are not the first to be 'tagged' by this, you won't be the last.
Do you understand the term 'dry humour' well that is what I have, the acid is administered with more than a hint of a wink and a smile, I have never been angry or forced to anger, rather I am more usually to be found staggering away from the computer convulsed with laughter at some one liner or put down...
I accept all as friends.
Regards
V.
