PTM,

If anything I wrote offended you, I certainly apologize. One thing I've noticed from my experience on this forum is that the more I participate, the more easily I can write things that could be taken the "wrong" way.

As a parallel, I was an athletic kid and played in several team sports in which teammates would use verbal "antics" to mold the team, and the "locker room" humor and quips would increase during the course of the season as the teammates would get used to each other. The problem with the internet, of course, is that it is less personal, so banter is easier to misinterpret-I have done this myself on more than one occasion.

Overall, I find this forum to be the most enjoyable and least crass of the car forums, so I'll try to do my part to maximize the former and minimize the latter.
