I apologize. In an attempt to describe my opinion of BYU basketball, apparently my barnyard reference to chicken droppings offended some. While it is anatomically impossible to retract the word I used, I hereby literarily retract all barnyard refuse references used in the latest Cougar Sportsline issue sent this morning. To show my sincerity, I the next time you see p _ _p used in my letter it will be a personal reference to me, as in nincompoop. As further proof of my contrition, I have also self imposed a six month suspension on myself from home teaching. I am now working on coming up with a word that will be worth a subsequent six month self imposed suspension. Any suggestions would be appreciated. hb
