Hypocrite

Some of our folks get there noses out of joint
When others amoung us are making a point,
That it's no more sinful to bet or to sip
As appearing so pious --
but a real hypocrite.

About this poem:

I admire people who live and let live, but have little use for those who would run you down under a guise of deception.

I like the quote I got from one of my old bosses from 2000, I am so busy trying to improve myself, I have no time to critize anyone else.

Studecar, all of us are entitled to feel and vent out how we feel. Specially so it serves the purpose of improving the situation..You did a great job pointing it and believe me it is so well said..Apologies are not necessary if all you are doing is to have it understood and perhaps anybody who is so judgemental will perhaps learn to be a bit accomodating..Great write studecar..

Thanks for the encouragement. I suppose I am just in a bad mood to have let my encounter on a forum upset me.The background on this caused me to have a negative view on some things I know I shouldn't. I wont go into it ,but should you desire to learn the details I would allow, on our private email only. Thank you wonderful friend. Larry

most of us fit your description in one way or another, i think. some however make a proffession out of it.
the goody goodies, as you indicate, are my favourite. they are easy to identify, harder to make them see because of their fixed beliefs, i guess.
