In an open hearted attempt to neutralize some of the bad feeling that may be creeping into this round I suggest that we learn from the excellent examples provided to us by the communist administration in China who invented the practice of "self-criticism". By offering self-criticism we reveal our honest intentions and fair spirit before tearing mercilessly into the flesh of our esteemed comrades. To provide a shining example I will admit that even I have a fault. It is hard for me to admit but I am a bit of a perfectionist. You may not think that's a serious fault - I thank you for your generosity if you don't - but I feel it can sometimes cause others to look bad when compared to me. For this reason I am ashamed and deeply request your forgiveness and adoration. Now, having completed my self-criticism I am free to give a frank assessment of my fellow committee members. From what I can see they are incompetent and fractious. If their slovenly behavior continues we may all be heading for irredeemable disaster. I can only hope that something is done to make the INVALID rule writers feel a deep and last shame for their actions. Anyone who has written an INVALID rule in this round must make a self-criticism and apologize to the committee in their next rule. ______________________________________________________________________ Find, Connect, Date! http://personals.yahoo.ca -- Rule Date: 2002-05-30 15:17:26 GMT
