Your reputation should stand on it's own among your business associates. Knny isn't one of them. No one on this board is one of them -- other than the people in the industry with whom you already have a relationship. If you're worried about clearing your name for Adonis, don't.
You ever heard of the Chineese Finger Trap? The winner is actually the person who "looses".
But whatever. Dig your own hole. I was trying to help.
My reputation is exactly that MY reputation...
For me Adonis, Knny, Arnold, president Bush...or anyone else ARE THE SAME.
I don't classify people into more important or worthy of my time and effort...
Millioners or homeless are also made of flesh and blood and to me one is not more important than the other.
Religion, race, nationality...end many other things that mean to someone mean NOTHING TO ME...as I chose to group people only into GOOD and BAD.
Also BAD people are not hopeless and I try my hardest to convert them into good...Only, sometimes I do realize that my effort will not lead me to desired result - and that's when I give up trying to make the difference (only than...)...
And "digging my own hole" or "embarrassing myself by continuous posting" is something that you and Knny suggest that I am doing...while I am more than confident that the hole I am digging is hole in the ground needed for superior foundation of "my house" (my personality)...
As you can see I am proudly digging and have no intention to stop...Life is a journey - not a destination and digging, building...COMMUNICATING
...etc, etc...is something that makes us who we are...
Some of us (you?) would rather drop out when some effort is needed to accomplish something...and some of us (definitely me) have no problem working day-in and day out for something we believe in...
