@snood,
Yeah yeah. I stand by what I wrote and have nothing for which to apologize. I didn't malign the man I simply pointed out that my experience with him was not in keeping with the understandably excessive praise of his A2K friends.
That today or yesterday was his birthday is, obviously, something of which I was not aware and if I had been, I doubt it would have changed what I wrote.
As I pointed out in my post, I didn't intrude upon the memorial thread, regardless of my experience with him. Instead I offered a post of support for him. You need only check the thread.
What is "dirt bag" move is to insinuate that I have maligned the man for recounting my experience with him wherein he wasn't quite the saint you might like to believe.
It's a cheap shot snood, but totally expected.
