Quote: I thought your post was brilliant...but didn't want to just be an "arfer" buy posting that to you. I think it also belongs in the "tips to newcomers to piecing" thread.

I like arfing - as long as I know that you'll also speak up if I step out of line. Betsey's analogy with regards to the jokes is a good one, since my own pathway is also lined with the corpses of victims of my teasings. It took me a while to learn that my acerbic wit could at times seem not only not witty, but downright hurtful to others. So I try to be more careful, sometimes with more, sometimes with less success.
I'll repost the post to the "Advice to Newcomers" thread - and thanks again.
