A place to start would be acknowledging that both of your posts #12 and #14 are antagonistic, and I replied to your first one being completely pleasant. Then you put your jabs out there again, that is the limit of my tolerance, and I was not bent out of shape about it, I was just being thorough, and even stated "It's no big deal".
As far as loosening up, I don't ever provoke anyone out of the blue, so why the hell should I accept it coming in my direction. I will never be accepting of unwarranted BS, it's not going to happen no matter where I go, and no one is going to eat me alive, you can be damn sure of that.
I always treat people very well until they give me a reason not to. Being east or west, people are going to be a product of their nature more so than their environment. The surface rudeness may be a common place back east, but the people beyond their outer crust are going to be no better or worse than anywhere else. If you are saying you're proud of people being rude and inconsiderate as a whole, it would be moronic. It seems in any heavily populated areas the people will be less likely to be outwardly friendly to anyone they don't know. Your chances of saying "Hi, how are you doing" to a mugger or a serial killer are much greater than mine, so it's understandable.
How you were incorrect again, was your statement of "I see '68 quarters" that you later changed to "I see a '68 wagon", which if you were honest, you would admit you didn't know of a difference between the '67-'68 quarters or worse it was simply intended to be a provacative statement. My observations tied to the question of both years sharing the same body could not have been more clear. If you truly knew they were the same, you could have stated it. "No insults intended".... Really?..... See posts #12 and #14... Who was that then? Hmmmm?..... You do realize that other people can read also, right? A need to provoke people and denying wrongdoing could be a sign of insecurity. :thinker:
I'm pretty sure this horse is dead and beaten into dust by now, and please know this is all trivial to me, no hurt feelings intended what so ever, and there have been none taken, I'm just an intolerant jackass. In my world of cartoon balls, the blue ball in your last post would take the stick away from the yellow ball and the next ball to find it would need rubber gloves.
I lost both of my parents and a sister in 3 consecutive years when I was in my 20's, and in my funk, became intolerant, pushed away a pretty decent live in girlfriend of 5 years, and wrote off 2 other siblings that showed their true hideous colors after my parents were gone, so believe me... this correspondance is trivial to me.
I can't find any differences in the '68 Sport Fury from your pictures to mine, except the plates and the wheels, and I don't recall anything about the interior when I saw the car. It may be possible that it is the same car. The picture that I took was in Farmington MN, last June at a Mopar event, so it could be that it found a home further west.
