Besmirching such a kindness? Even if that were grammatically and physically possible, you are quite off topic, and miss my point. To do so, I would have had to demean Mr. Depp's act of charity, which I never did, nor would. I still stand by my inappropriate behavior comments, as the proper etiquette of the mom, would have been to tell her son to leave the kind gentleman alone. She exposed her true greed-based colors by Googling Depp's production company, and firing off an e-mail, BEGGING for him to "Keep his promise". Kids need to learn proper manners, and not be enabled by parents who do not teach them aforementioned manners. No discourteousness intended, Messieur Lucky, just my humble opinion.[/QUOTE]woodsie said:
Off topic? Not quite. You ARE demeaning the entire act by your need for qualification and utter presumption. First and foremost, how do you know what SHE did? Are you assuming that she Googled and found an email for his production company or is this a statement of fact? I found no such reference in the story. In fact, after searching IMDBPro, which I pay for, and finding only a link to his company's one page website, I still have no access to an email. Now, do you know the text of presumptive email? Was the tone that of 'begging?' If so, would you care to share the exact content? Obviously, you know NOTHING of these people, yet you are so quick to condemn! Yes, I know very little too, but at least I am refraining from going negative instantaneously and am willing to give the mother and son the benefit of the doubt, without qualification, in the hopes that it was simply an impulsive action by a child that resulted in a selfless act of kindness that brought joy to all concerned. Why does it have to be anything else?
Oh, and my grammar and usage of 'besmirch' was correct. But thanks for the concern.
