I "never" go on the Romance thread, so didn't know . . . .

The post was actually an attempt at a little bit of humor, by hyperbole, and was a little bit tongue-in-cheek. The sin that I will confess to is not so indicating with the use of an appropriate smiley or at least adding a "ha" at the end, so people would know that.

I do have a tendency to try to make subtle humor, and assume that everyone else "gets it." Such would be more successful if people could see my body language which, of course, they can't. I will work on that. I think that the problem developed from being a professional public speaker for about 30 years. People can see your body language when you are publicly speaking, and a speaker can get by, and be successful, with using the subtle, tongue-in-cheek humor much more.

Your admonition was received with appreciation.
