Im Sorry.
Dear Scrivs,
I’m sorry. I’m a super passionate person. I have a big mouth. And a double personality to boot. And my other self is an ass too. I never meant to hurt your feelings, injure your reputation. Or anything like that. Open Mouth insert Cowboy Boot. If you desire your domain back. It’s all yours.
Dear Rundle,
Sorry dude if I pissed you off. Lesson Learned. Don’t piss Rundle off. He’s sassy. I never meant to hurt your feelings or cause you grief. I’m trying to man up here and accept responsibilty for my actions. I don’t how all of this got out of control. We need to be men, and move on. I have noticed in life some of my greatest friends used to be my greatest enemies. Anyways, lets grab a beer in Rochester sometimes.
Dear Darren,
Im sorry for offending you in the past. I never publicly really came out and just manned up strongly. Thanks for your moral integrity and humility.
Dear Jeremy,
I shouldn’t have ever taken so many swipes at you. Again can we shake and make peace? You guys aren’t so bad really. I was out of line. I hope you can forgive me.
Dear Dobkin,
I’m sorry if I offended you. That statement I made earler was out of control. And I will find and destroy every link I can to it. Sorry and I’m not going to respond to the IST staffers I contacted. Again I’m sorry.
Dear Jason Calacanis,
I’m sorry for ever draggin you into all of this. It was unfair and out of control. Please accept my sincere apologies. I hope you can forgive me. And if you are ever in NYC again let’s grab a coffee and chat.
Dear Nick Denton,
Sorry for being a nut about Fleshbot a few years ago, and for grinding an axe with Gawker. I respect your style more than just about anyone. The offer for a coffee is good for you too man.
To any other blog network owner and all those listed above,
I’m really sorry if I caused the blog wars. Never my intention. I never meant to hurt your brand image, or personal reputations. You guys are all talented people who I look up to. Best of luck.
Dear Duncan,
Thanks for talking sense into me the last few weeks. I appreciate it. Your a great man. No matter what anyone says.
I look up to you for your ability to always put on your most honest and straight forward opinion and shoot it my way.
Sincerely,
The Liberal Cowboy

Accepted and I gladly offer my own apology to you as well and to everyone that had to witness the chaos. It’s these experiences that make us better men (not women because all the women aren’t nutcases in the first place like us men are).
Char, love the quote.
Scrivs said this on January 17, 2006 12:28 pm
haha, what the hell? I left a comment and it put all your information into the form boxes. You using my computer again?
*looks around frantically
If you could fix that I would be forever grateful.
Scrivs said this on January 17, 2006 12:29 pm
I wasn’t involved in this shebang… Why do I get an apology this time? I stayed out of it, don’t drag me in!
Jeremy Wright said this on January 17, 2006 1:00 pm
Frankly I think you owe an apology to BizNicheMedia too. How dare you NOT drag us into this?
Andy Hagans said this on January 17, 2006 1:01 pm
Shame you can’t see the big smile I have on my face right now.
Everyone makes mistakes but it is from those mistakes that we gain wisdom. Armed with that wisdom is the potential to do great things.
I want to thank you for the kind words you wrote on Workboxers. I’m catching up from the holiday (and I will post over there as well) but I want to say that honestly, your words meant a lot and I’m glad I could help. Thank you – truly.

Thanks a lot homie, I really appreciate it. And like Paul, I apologize too. All this nonsense got way outta hand.

David,
I really hope this is sincere and you don’t turn around and shove it in our faces … because that would just about kill you off for many.
All the best

[...] Looks like the saga of the Cowboy (aka David Krug) seems to be over with his very public apology this week after months of nasty/snarky/loony blogging – although, I’m not totally holding my breath just yet – there does appear to be some truth in it as David is looking to go legit with his own blog network – erati – and being a nasty snark is just not good business. Good luck, David. [...]
