This is with my deepest regrets that I apologize from the bottom of my heart to Mr.Gilmore, Mr.Woodcock, Mr.Bush and also the rest of the honourable members of the list for being ignorant of how high-profile a list this is. I couldn't be more sorry. Please, please forgive me.
ps: I sure meant no harm, was just trying to be humorous,(I hope the exclamation marks might have given some hint) anyway it is too late. They say there is no natural punishment than remorse. Also, I was too embarrassed to post a quick apology.
No exclamation points indicate yelling, animated, surliness, or a host of other emotions, humor is NOT one of them. If you intent was to joke or in jest then don't use !. use ;) or :) esp. since your second language is pretty clearly english where what you're typing, and what we're reading/getting can be hard to interpret.
Thanking you, pavan.
