I will never or have never lied for a friend. I do cut
them a little slack. Because I am doing them no favor
by covering unacceptable things. I have lost a lot of
associates in the past years. I pull no punches in my
later evaluation of them.
A person makes his own record in this world. I think
they should live and die with it.
I have heard certain names for years. I see no harm in
discussing it relative to diabetes. That is not wrong
unless the stories are a bunch of dreamed up [censored]. I am
aware of several that served prison terms because a
"friend" accepted their actions.
This one's a little TOO vague Guy. What are you referring
to (if anything specific)

I am one that does not cut slack for the dead. Their

discussion of Mr. Groves and criticism of parties the

Ahh, got you. And I agree with you.

Indeed they will, and in general, it doesn't take very long.
I am only vaguely aware of Mr. Groves,
Me and Mr Groves came head to head a few years ago. Not over
his quest to see the continued supply of beef insulin, but
over his plea for all us diabetics to help free a bloke from
jail who was IN jail because he killed a pedestrian in his
car when he hypo'd off the road. After the whole story came
out (the bloke had injected for food, but didn't EAT the
food, instead he went out in his car. That to me was
irresponsible and not a "diabetic" problem per se, it was
simply a bad decision. I had no sympathy whatsoever for the
driver, so I wouldn't support DG in his drive to get the
fellow out of jail. That was basically the beginning of "the
rot" setting in between the two of us, but I STILL say my
thoughts on the matter where the right thoughts.
Tarring a whole community with the same brush (diabetics are
dangerous drivers) wasn't going to help ANY of the millions
of diabetics who DON'T drive when they should be eating.

Well thank you, and I KNOW I'd miss YOU.
