Incorrect. That was tested after dinner at Roasters. No SMS sent, no posts made on the boards, no ICQs sent, nada. And no cops were called or even an attempt at contact. Yeah, that was one of the straws.

Hmmmm...and do you remember the fact that I had a business emergency to tend to as the reason I skyed out of Roasters so fast? Something directly impacting two people who work for me. Something indirectly impacting most of the others who depend upon me to provide them with a paycheck that puts food on their tables, clothes on the back of their children and roofs over their head?

I spent from the time I got into the truck til about 1AM on conference calls and doing other forms of damage control. Ask GonZo or Dickinbush, both of them caught just a bit of the rant after the fact when I finally got the train back on the tracks.

Now if during all of that I inadvertently let it slip my mind to check and see if you were able to find your way from dinner to your house, then I sincerely fucking apologize.

And I know how hard it is for you to believe in best intentions of "friends" when things dont revolve around you, but believe it or not I suspect any one of us would've very quickly realized you were MIA if you didn't turn up online soon even without notification and would've send someone to find the carcass...

Oh, someone did check up on me - a friend of mine

Edited to add - and no need for a lenthly explanation - like I said, it was just one straw - not the whole basket. You might think I'm dumb, but I'm not totally irrational

Again, you're right, I'm an evil mean hateful person, you're right, I'm wrong.

You win.

unfortunately I am not going to be able to make it tonight....there is a SMALL possibility I will be there, but my wife's best friend needs some help with something at her new store and it could take a few hours...something about moving big shelves and stuff, things only a big fat, i mean strong, man can do

I am going to try and be on my way by 11pm, but she is in East Atlanta, so the drive from there to marietta diner is going on 45 minutes to an hour

Drive times and traffic are no excuse with Hellpuppy and Gonzo. If you live an hour and half away and can't get there in 15 minutes, you're toast.

No problem, we do it again in 2 weeks.....same time same place.

I missed last night as well, I hit Gonzo with the news I was not coming.

That is the thing with friends... you can have a really crappy day and no one hates you for not showing up.

I am glad to hear there were new faces and I'll see you all in 2 weeks.
