Subject: RSG/Amnesty Proposal
|
Years ago, in my youth, I was a regular at a very rowdy bar. Every 2-3
years they would have "amnesty night". You could get a free drink by
bringing back all the bar glasses you had carried away and all those
who had been "barred for life " were forgiven and allowed back.
I'm proposing this for RSG. Everyone starts with a clean slate. No
direct reference to any past transgressions, real or imagined,
allowed. If nothing else, it might at least give us something a little
more original to read. People would have to be a bit more creative
instead of the present state of " oh yeah, he said, you said, we said,
etc". Same old rehash...over and over, and over, and over.
I'm sure it wouldn't take long, ( a day or two) to see the old battle
lines drawn, but, it would be interesting for those two days.

Are you referring to Mike's as being a saint.....wow! What a
concept. ; >
I can forget it the past, especially if it meant that RSG would
prosper. It's a non-emotional decision for me. It just has to be
reciprocal.

You are a saint, but very misguided. I have serious doubts that either
side could forget the past. I hope you are a great leader and can pull
the group together. Good Luck

Yeah, good plan.
You're drowning in a sea of assholes, and the best course of action is
pretending they're not assholes?
