The wise warrior knows when to charge ahead and when to retreat

That title was made at least to me by one Major Greg Boyington on one of his visits prior to his death to see my dad.
I had came home from our so called innocent school in grand Hagerman, ( Well it was sort of grand back then) with a black eye from a fight I was in there after school. The fight resulted over some teasing perped on me by a few Bullies, the thing was it really was a fight I could avoid.
The fact that Pappy Boyington was a wrestler both in High School as well as in service in the USMC telling me that sometimes its best to know when to charge into battle and when its more wise to retreat and at least know what and who your going to fight.
So when I was brought to tears, yes I do cry and not too much of a man to admit that I do, but when I was brought to tears over some blog comments, coupled with loosing the shop here, due to not being able to serve up enough liabilty and bonding insurance here, in Glenns Ferry, along with being shot down for a group of us in both the Knytes and sibling group the AyreWolves Vintage Aviation Association, of fixing up at our expense a mostly worn out and decaying airport, I was about to throw in the towel on this paticular blog and just be on Blogger.
Then about 00:00 hours I got a call from a fellow CNP member who said don't quit now. Give it the 9 months you have on your lease, get it together , and then move if ya'll(meaning me) want or need to.
So for the next 9 or so months I will blog right here, and let the shelling fall where it needs to.
I blog to keep the very few Knytes who live in and near here informed and entertained, not to be smacked around by a few who only know a tiny part of my story.
When I put up my blog here it was based upon the concept of sharing ideas on Southern culture, go fast rides hence the title Maximum Overdrive, Warbirds included, as well as just those who were into the Dukes-of-Hazzard sharing their memories of the show. Even trading Southern fried cooking tips.
But what did I get? Maybe my fault maybe not, but from a few out of Pocky many more thought the folk from Poky were right and never got the real chance to know me or the reason I put up this blooming blog to begin with.
Which is partly why I began to get mean and lash out, but to the few innocent out there who had to muddle through that I say here and now I'm sorry.
I'm going to take a vacation from this blog though for a few weeks and just watch it but not blog. For you our groups members here in the area you know where the other blogs of our group is at and you can get your Hazzard County 411 from there.
Last but not least as some advice from another stupid thing I did.
Last night I downloaded the Google beta version of their browzer called Google Chrome. Maybe I did something wrong in that effort maybe not, but I uninstalled it, but my browzer and all is still having a tummy ache.
Until after Thanksgiving
Good numbers to ya'll
Keep it between the ditches.
