There is nothing to argue about with you because you simple don't understand anything about sailing or trying to maintain some control in stormy seas.

You accused me of hating someone, which I don't, but you're pretty antagonistic and seem to post a lot about him. Just wondering. I know he does similar, but I'm asking you. I used to stick up for loogy "back in the day," and only because he seemed to be politically moderate, as opposed to the plethora of right-wing scum that permeates this newsgroup. But after a while, I realized he was just another short-tempered little ****, always willing to go after others, whatever side of the spectrum they favored. He also reminds me a bit of a small child with a perseveration problem. He's threatened me and others here several times, and has threatened to show up here...even though he's been told he is not welcome. If he tries to bust into the house, he's going to go home in a body bag. At my age, I don't engage in fistfights with ****heads 20 or more years young...if I am under "assault" in the house, I have another way to handle the situation. You're a bad ass! That's some scary ****! |

Then, when caught in those lies, his out is to sling childish insults and petty name calling. Did you know that, by counting from the past, that his wife is getting her THIRD doctorate degree "soon"? |
