Truer words were never spoken, Peter. I've told Mikey and others many times that each board has its own personality. To me MB is like a "biker bar" full of aging Hell's Angels. You walk in pretty cock-sure of yourself, they size you up and take you out behind the building and proceed to beat the snot out of you. So you take the whipping like a man, pick yourself up off the pavement and stagger back into the bar where the whole gang proceeds to buy you too many beers to count.
Then as long as you remember to stay humble, not take yourself too seriously, grow a thick skin and apologize when needed you will be part of the gang and get to be a part of the ongoing drama that Mikey is a master at fomenting. Which reminds me I need to go make a mea culpa on a different thread ...

PS Congratulations on the new job, Peter. I hope it works out well for you. Even if it doesn't isn't it nice to have a security blanket/fallback position with your carpet cleaning gig? Best wishes. Oh, one other hint, my friend- never post something when you are angry. Words in print stick around a long time ...
