Hahahaha thanks for the replies everyone. Of course I know that this will fuel more gossip. What I did will cause more talk for sure. I am out and my kids are out so I can enjoy chances to bloody their nose a little. I have worked around their stupid inquiries for 3 years now and so far I'm Teflon. I even go into Saturday morning coffee break spots and chat up their flock right in front of them. I love it. But, I only do so once in a while and then go away. The publishers are all still nice to me when we meet in a store. They aren't sure how to label a fader, but I always visit and don't let them ignore me. For now, it is so fun to have my cake and eat it too. I know the elders game way better than most of them do because I was one of the top POS elders.
Thanks for the concern, but as of now, my Teflon is intact :)
Now, for a more fun single guy subject. Where are you single ladies ? :)
