Two things we who have daughters do not want to hear is a young man mention the daughter and "good time" in the same sentence.

As a father of a 3 year old girl I hope never hear a young man refer to my daughter as a "good time". It might get ugly.

Rider-
A little friendly advice:
1. Apologize to COL Moroney, faster than a speeding bullet, for the breech of etiquette.
2. Do some research on the SGM, write a clear and concise report on why the SGM is a true "SF Stud" in every good sense of the word.
3. After doing both of the above items, hide for a while, read, but don't post in order to avoid the wrath of the QPs who hold SGM Jakovenko in very high regard.
As I said, this is only friendly advice, you are perfectly welcome to ignore it, although that would probably not be in your best interest if you want to remain a guest on this Board.
Have a very SF day.

Alright Guys, My apologies. This is what I get for succumbing to a Puckish impulse. I allowed it to continue so I'm fixing it.
The Rider - I sincerely hoped you would get a clue without having somebody take a sledgehammer to you. Obviously my (our) feeble attempt(s) at irony was a little too subtle for you. This has gone on long enough.
1. Nobody here cares about your love life. You've also stepped on your crank - with golf cleats. You don't appear to be astute enough to have gotten the hint.
2. You apparently don't understand the obligations inherent in the Godfather relationship. Any honorable man, be he QP or Casper Milquetoast, would express concern about the intentions/actions of a young man interested in his Goddaughter.
3. If dramatic effect (status and threat) keeps problems from happening, then it is effort well spent. If it doesn't, honor has been satisfied; you were warned.
4. If you're stupid enough to mess with a dog after he's growled a warning, you deserve to get bitten.
5. You need to improve your SA and figure out who we are and what this board is about. The impression you are leaving with the other members is very uncomplimentary.
Try lurking for a while until people forget about this thread.

SGM Jakovenko would never have had to say anything, he would only have had to look in your direction, once.
