some of

see
how many you had there.

A box appeared labeled "Friends" but it was blank other than:

"No friends to show"



Got a chuckle out of that one.


You have to be a FB friend to see that and most other info...

Bull****. My wife and I are not 'Friends' on Facebook, yet I can see
all her friends. Again, you're
full of crap.

Oh, to forestall your snide comments, we purposely don't want to see
all the posts the other
(especially Sandy) makes. If you had friends, you'd understand.

Here's an example, just for you. Got to Mike Hoefle's home page. Click
on 'Friends'. You'll see a
bunch. Are you a friend of his? Neither am I. I've no idea who he is.

In fairness John, you can set up your Facebook page as public, friends
only or totally private in terms of who can view it's content including
the "friends list". Harry obviously has his set on "friends only" and
not "public". I knew that when I saw the "No friends to display"
but I
still got a kick out of it due to his reputation on rec.boats.



Not being a right-winger in the rec.boats sea of right-wing ****ters
will do that.

Indeed, I have my FB settings set about as you have described. I do have
a good number of Republicans on my friends list, including a few I have
known for many decades. They're bright, know how to write, and are
totally unlike many of the personally insulting TDC snarks like your
Florida buddy and of course, the Racist Herring. One of my FB buds even
knew my Republican mother.


In all honestly, I think of rec.boats as a place for entertainment, a
few chuckles here and there and an amateur debating society of sorts. It
has certainly has changed since it was a legitimate boating forum
although even then the debates were commonplace. I get a kick out of
all the various personalities here and really don't take anything
seriously. Sometimes I'll post something off the wall just to see the
arrows fly.



I prefer the FB forums. One of the reasons is that virtually everyone
posts with their actual name. That tends to limit the "opportunities" of
assholes like your buddy FlaJim. Only one of my FB friends posts under
an assumed name, and that's because he's an undercover law enforcement
fella who "outs" violent and violence-prone right-wing extremists. I've
known him for 20+ years.


Like I said, I don't take anything here seriously. Some, like FlaJim,
maintain a rec.boats persona that isn't even close to their real life
persona. Jim gets your goat because you take it so seriously and he
knows it. I know you'll argue that, but it doesn't matter.


I don't take ignorant assholes seriously, and that includes your buddy JIm.
My guess is that in real life, he is even more of an ignorant ass. There is
no evidence to the contrary.
