Default The Rant That I Can't Write

Very good! I like it. Hope it helps. Remember, in human relations,
when all else fails stand up and bust them in the mouth. Hard.

To all of you who *rant*, I am so upset tonight that I can't even get it out
properly. I have been attacked by a member of our society, someone who is a
great grower. Someone who is with the *in* crowd. I am in the *in* crowd, I
guess, but my *in crowd* is not the crowd who lives on the big hill.

Frank & I have worked our butts off to make this society the best it can be.
We cart stuff, do presentations, act as officers, I do the newsletter, he
does the graphics for publicity. We, together, do so much. I can't even
begin to describe what we do, and we don't want any accolades. At the recent
show, I recruited a couple of very capable people to place the trophies
(which I bought) and they did a great job. Good on them, because my back
hurt, and I didn't want to climb into the displays.

Late this afternoon I rec'd an email from someone who has been a friend. Not
close, but a friend. He took me to task for what he thought was an omission
in the newsletter about the AOS. (Did I say he's the AOS Rep? Did I say he's
so into awards that anyone is fair game?) He wants every word of the AOS
stuff in the newsletter. Hmm. Could that be because the more he gets
exposure, the more awards he gets? In this area, yes.

I have been attacked for the past few hours. I am so angry that I could
spit. You know what?

Hymn. Hymn. Sing him a hymn!!!!!

Thanks for the outlet. I'll be sorry I sent this in the moring, but it feels
great right now..
