That was rather presumptuous. The message you responded to, that is, not your response.

My post was an, admittedly silly, attempt at humour.
Since it was a while ago and Christian has completely recovered, I supposed it was innocuous.

Fair enough.

Tone never gets communicated very well over plain text. To me, it came across, probably way harsher than you ever intended.

not probably, entirely surely - Carlo is one of the kindest CPian around.

His response is what prompted me to post mine. Reading his follow-ups, I think he'll manage. Smile | :)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Good job, you're liver will appreciate it.

About 10 years ago I saw the light and gave up smoking, drinking and chasing fat woman. So far so good!

I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

The problem nowadays isn't chasing them; it's catching them. Sigh | :sigh:

Good on you if you have the ability to do just that.

I wish I could convince a certain brother-in-law of mine to do the same.

Wow, I'd never have imagined that. Congrats on the decision, keep it up - and come post something silly here if the temptation is too strong, we'll help waving it away with even more silly answers Big Grin | :-D

Thanks. I'm not sure I could have just stopped when it was 20

I am glad you managed to find the resources to stop.
You are one of my CP heroes - helped me a lot in the early CP times ( with other fellow CPians : Nish, JSOP, Pete, Mick, Michael, Dan, Luc, Ravi, elephanting Henry, Joergen, and so many more incredible people), very active in the Lounge, first with so many articles written, etc... the legend.

*blush* I am 23 years in to a career that exists because people helped me on CP in 1999, but I don't remember names.

1999 ? So you even knew CP before the database disaster in the early 2000 ? Wow !
