The Jailhouse

[Bird of Prey]

I have just one teeny tiny little problem with that.

I, too am a Flame Warrior. It can be an invigorating part of the Internet Experience. I often learn a great deal from watching two combatants engage (as I'm sure others are learning from our engagement now) and I often find great humor in the exchanges.

I can even recall a few instances where I have "instigated" conflict myself here at IH. I'm sure others would be beside themselves with glee to point this out.

You may be wondering, "Why is BoP defending Joe? Surely he can see he is equally as bad an influence as a certain redhead who shall not be named."

Here is where I part company with those that dislike Joe so strongly. You see it is not such a great stretch for me to see what *I* appeared as 25 years ago. Fortunately, I was given the time and availed myself of the opportunity to aspire to a higher level. I personally believe joe can do the same. he has the intelligence, the wit and the self confidence to pull it off. All he lacks is wisdom. how long it will take for him to gain that wisdom is unknown.
It may be difficult to see but there is great potential in Joe. I can only hope that he will be granted and take advantage of the opportunity to achieve that potential.
