It's too late Ladey. You can't dig out of this. The more you try, the deeper you will get in.
I suggest you relax, check your ego, and figure out how to fix this mess you made for yourself.
I would start with a full, public apology to Our-Street (Tim Miles) and Rufus - because you said Rufus was going to make the call to have Tim "rubbed out."
I don't think this apology will save you, but it would be a show of remorse on your part.
