an apology to my readers

my last post was apparently viewed as insensitive to some.  for that, i sincerely apologize.  for those of you who actually know me, you know that being insensitive or unkind is never - and will never be - my intention whatsoever.  for those of who you don't know me, i consider austin a home away from home in many ways; i have family here, i attended school here for two years, and i have dozens of friends who still reside in austin.  this city is my state's capitol, and in my line of work, i travel here very often.  i see the devastation this event caused in some people's lives - i was corrected by a reader that there has been one confirmed death and an individual who suffered severe burns.  i was unaware of this at the time of the post.  my prayers go out to those families and those injured or affected by this event.

in short, i hope all of my readers know my intentions.  my intentions were not, are not, and will never be to be insensitive or cruel.  yesterday was news you could use day and that event was indeed "news."  very sad news.  the event was a tragedy, and the saddness it has caused to some families is most certainly not something to be laughed at.  in my poor attempt to laugh at myself, i lost quite a few followers as a result.  once again, i truly do apologize for anyone who was upset or offended by my last post.  as i have stated, that was not at all my intention and i hope you can see that.
