Frank, I can look back on my life since I got sober and say I'm an honest and honorable man. And I have done everything possible to make up for my mistakes prior to getting sober. There is a certain contentment in that.

We have demonstrated several times you are neither honest nor honorable. I do envy you your family, I do not envy them their patriarch. Honesty is the first mark of a man, and you aren't.

If you'll remember, when cornered by your duplicity you run off to hide behind others. That's not necessary for someone who hasn't lied, and is the sign of a weak person. Your chest-beating is like pounding a bass drum, only loud because it's empty - there are no guts inside.

My "little disparaging remarks" aren't hidden. My opinion is out in the open, expressed quite bluntly. You understand them, don't you? I think you're the one who is quite sneaky about being disparaging. In fact, it's obvious you are.

And please consider my entire posts, don't drag out a word here and a phrase there to puff yourself up or try to create some illusion. That's not honest, either.

When one isn't honest, isn't honorable, they aren't anything. I don't know why we just don't leave this alone. I'll just let you nip at my heels, I guess, until the next time. I hope it is a long, long ways off. I'll wear boots.

Enough said.
