223. Both sides and the middle, patrice. I open the whole motherfucker

and express what I think. In no way was I talking out of both sides of my mouth, not my specialty (who likes to habitually look at many sides of about any given topic and gives all equal value, maybe not to be fascist in a way, sorta?)...I had one point and never deviated from it much less ever stated the opposite. You continue to have interesting definitions.

It is okay not to try to literally say everything and therefore also nothing with each and every statement.

Your post is a step toward that, too bad your first definitive statement was all pissy and assholish (hey, I might resemble that remark but you seem to be not so naturally inclined from a temperament standpoint) but hey, often baby's first and favorite word is no but they pick up others along the way. You have a lovely!

That is the "peace unto you" and THE HIT, DOUBLE-TAP, and BAM..."peace unto you" see you can really jazz it up and move it around and add!
