No worries Dawn

So Dawn aka noirsphynx pm'd me yesterday and apologized for a post she made that was meant as a joke but it seems it got taken the wrong way. All this was surprising to me as I never saw the original post she made that she was referring to.

Anyway as everyone knows my signature says "One more fish should be ok?, right!!!" I meant that line as a joke because I know there is such a thing as too many fish, and while I love a variety of fish in my tanks, I've learned to not over do it like I have in the past. But naturally when she saw an article about "One more fish" she thought of me. The article is a spoof off of what could be a David Letterman top 10 list. As most people know David Letterman's lists are quite funny and are not to be taken seriously.

I read the list and personally I thought it was funny. Honestly if I had of come across it first I probably would of posted it myself, saying sarcastically, "See I always knew there was room for one more fish, LOL" but I would hope people could see that I was making a joke of it, and not being serious about it.

Anyway I just wanted to let everyone know that Dawn didn't post it to be mean or to insinuate that the list applied to me (honestly I'm not that bad) she basically just intended to post a funny link in the hope of giving people a good laugh. It's really a ridiculous list to be taken seriously, and she didn't think it would be taken the wrong way. I've met Dawn and she is a nice person so I didn't want anyone to get the wrong idea about her.

On a plus side had it meant to be a mean/hurtful post towards me I thank my friends for sicking up for me and the mods for doing their job and deleting it.

Yes, I always knew you were S M R T

but you were right, I did find it funny, and knowing Dawn I would of known she meant it as a joke. Heck, I'm sure I would of joked along with the thread had I noticed it.

Hi Laurie,
I skimmed over it and did not think it was mean in anyway! I thought it was funny as it
did use your line. It was cute and only meant to be taken that way!

Yep I come by it honestly, but maybe some day I'll have to change it to "Just one more tank..."
