Dan, you frustrated with junior yet?


Nah..I'm the proud owner of 2 teenagers. This stuff is easy...

"You didn't put gas in my car"
"I'll do it tomorrow night"
"But it needs gas now & I gotta drive to east farawayplace tomorrow morning"
"I SAID I would put gas in it tomorrow night, didn't I??!!! BTW Dad, can you lend me 20?"

BZ, you got yourself in trouble here because you began to interpret the rule as if it were clear. (And as if you were on the rules committee.) It looks as if Dan took exception to that and simply asked for you to back up your position with a rule. You can’t. You lose.

You have even admitted that the rule is unclear since your original post. You could have avoided the entire thing by simply saying, “There is no rule to back up my interpretation completely. This is how I call it though.”

Dan, do I win a Coke?
A Coke? You win an entire 6 pack for reading through this entire mess!
