I wonder what's going on?
Maybe Sue will help us understand this sentence.

Jonathan - I hope to be a gukka one day.
Matthew - What do you mean by that?

Gukka = Grandfather = Jon hopes to be a grandpa someday. Give it a few years, that will probably happen. :mrgreen:

I called my grandparents Nana and Papa, Gukka is one I've not heard. Little kids do make up some interesting sounding words when they're learning to talk.

Maybe someone should take the opportunity to point out-as calmly as possible-that the last time Sue made posts trying to clarify what was going on, she was accused of jealousy, doubt and bitterness. Stop and ask yourselves if you would want to have to deal with that again if you were her. Just a suggestion.

Yeah Sue didn't deserve any of those comments, and the ones that said them should be ashamed.
I've never heard the Gukka term either, but nanna and papa are probably the most popular

Valid point, Exe, but I wasn't blaming anyone, I was pointing out the general "danged if you do" and "danged if you don't" attitude and tendency to read more into a post than what might be meant that tends to prevail here--Which we've probably all done at some time or another. And unfortunately that's not uncommon for message boards.

Are you really saying that John meant to stop bashing Sue? He wrote about "rumors". I don't know about any recent rumors around here, do you? I wonder what rumors was he refering to? Maybe it was a bout the one about him and Dorla splitting?

I publicly apologize if I was rude to Sue, I know she was trying to do her job, and maybe was frustrated with the lack of info.

This is the sort of thing I meant about people reading more into posts than is there. The post about them splitting was a joke for Heaven's sake, not a rumor. And why are we trying to analyze what John may have meant?

I assumed "gukka" was baby-speak and a delightfully cute pronunciation of "grampa."

I'm frustrated with the lack of info also. Some of these dates should be confirmed by now and are not. IMO something just doesn't sit right with this senerio.

re: his house....

John spoke of that a concert himself. I have that on video. He did not elaborate, just that it was an interesting time in his life. He talked of starting over before and that he would do it again if that is what was expected of him.

The key word is "new". Maybe he is warning us of something we do not know of yet.

Or, as has been pointed out, Sue DOESN'T have any inside info, so she couldn't really clarify what was going on. I definitely think some of the comments were making assumptions about motives and weren't the most tactful statements, but I'm with Enosh on pretty much everything he said to Sue.

I think many of us are guilty of be negative about stuff on the board. What happened to the good old day when the only time we got upset with one and other, was over CITAS vs CTS or whatever it was. 8)

Even this post is negative...

I want to say sorry to preacher man 777 for being rude to him 3 months ago, when I told him to grab a Kleenex.

Let's make the 23rd of June 2010 positive on the zone day.

night..
