There are times when you do something or in this case write something without thinking. I am referring to my post where I mentioned that Dr. King's daughter, Yolanda had passed away. I really can't beleive that I was so thoughtless as to post the news of her passing as an afterthought to an otherwise light-hearted and fun post. I apologize to anyone that I offended. I really try to be sensitive to what I write and I know if someone else had posted it in the way and matter that I did I would have thought the poster was a bit thoughtless and insensitive, and knowing me-racist. Oh yes, I go there a lot-hopefully when it is warranted.
In otherwords what I am trying to say is I'm so sorry to anyone that I offended. Ms. King deserved better than that as do my readers.

Hello Libby,
You did well with this post.
I have sometimes tacked something important onto a light post -- because I spent time on the silly bit and then found out about the other... sometimes have wondered about issuing a retraction or apology.
You have done admirably well by Ms. King.
Plus you are an admired role model to me.
Thank you for blogging.
Your fan,
TL
