I don't do the work I do for amusement. I do it for the reasons

in my first paragraph, above.

I have a couple of hobbies, and other leisure activities, but

That is just sad.

Your life is work?




You don't seem to get it. I like what I do. In many cases, my work
helps
people who really need help, in this country and abroad, in
sustainable
development, delivering reliable potable water, worker training,
worker
rights, et cetera, in underdeveloped nations.

I also get to meet and work with interesting people in a number of
fields of endeavor, including business, labor, the fine arts, music,
theater, and movies. I get to wear a suit and tie if I want. I get to
travel to interesting places on someone else's dime. I get paid
nicely
for this, and get to produce interesting deliverables.

To me, that's a lot more interesting and a lot more fun than flying
model airplanes, playing golf, RV'ing, et cetera.

To each his own.


To each his own is right.

Many people who work or volunteer their time and efforts to support
humanitarian causes are respected and even admired. However when you
constantly ridicule, mock and taunt people because they have interests
that you don't share or because they desire to enjoy their hard won
retirement years pursuing endeavors that don't interest you, any
respect
you may think you have earned goes out the window.





This is rec.boats. I'm just trying to fit in as much as my digestive
track allows with the right-wing slime whose almost entire reason for
existence here is to ridicule, mock, and taunt. Fortunately, my
digestive track doesn't allow much of that, so I simply send most of
those righties straight to the filter and septic tank system without
reading their excrement.


Interesting conclusion on your part Harry.

When I review posts in rec.boats I see a lot of banter going on among
those with whom you politically disagree but I see very little displays
of ridicule, mock and taunt except to one person. You. The rest of
the newsgroup basically gets along and respects the various interests,
hobbies, stations in life of others.

You seem to be the main target of any negative posts. I get thrown in
once in a while primarily because I will discuss an issue with you.

So why are people in the newsgroup who represent all walks of life and
interests almost universally have disdain for basically one person and
the comments he makes? The only other person I know who shares that
disdain is slammer.



Most of the other non-righties long ago deserted this sinking ship. I
don't buy into the right-wing outlook on race, gender, or corporationism
uber alles.


So you think you are entitled to use a public, non-moderated newsgroup
to spew your dislike for those who don't share your progressive liberal
views? Do you seriously think you are going to change anybody's minds?
The more you mock, ridicule, taunt and insult the stronger the resolve
of those who don't subscribe to your views becomes. If your intent is
to try to convert, your efforts are backfiring big time, just as many
liberal Democratic politicians up for re-election are finding that their
adherence to the party line is backfiring on them.

Sorry, I'm not into conversions, religious or political.

But you *are* into mocking, ridiculing, taunting, and insulting. That's your bag, eh?

You are a waste of ****ing time, Krause. You should filter me soon. You're not man enough to answer
the questions posed you about the lies you tell.
