    I have to apologize dear reader, I was too ignorant and foolhardy in my last post, honestly, what was I even thinking. I should have done more research before trying to come up with a new premise rather than go in guns blazing hoping for the best.

    Just between you and me, those concepts yesterday-me talked about, they were just horrible, but don’t tell him that, knowing him he probably wouldn’t be able to handle that critique.
