Uh. I'm promoting a philanderer by having fun with your spelling

of
potato?


No, but the media at the time sure had fun at Dan's expense, and

used
it to promote BillyBob, without really checking out some of the

serious
allegations about the latter. And then they act surprised about

Monica.

Billy Bob was hardly the first president to mess around. If George

W
isn't,
it's probably only because he is so incredibly unappealing.


I don'tknow, Laura seems to like him OK!

But such is
how some enlightened elitist think and act. And so it would not
surprise me that the same enlightened elitist attitude would be
substituted for a meaningjul contribution on something as lame

as
the
RBP. TnT

Man, you jesus freaks sure ain't fun.

Oh, we can be fun, but I prefer when discussing substantive

issues
with
you, instead of my spelling, or for that matter yours, not

becoming
the
subject. Sp flames are not particularly interesting.

It wasn't a flame, Tinkerntom. Your are getting quite wound up on

this
angle, when clearly if you look back over our umpteen questions,

you
can't
make a case that I pick on your spelling. Had ANYONE made that

particular
spelling error, I could not have resisted a reference to the

potatoe
incident.

If it is critical
for the content of the discussion, then clarify for clarity sake,
otherwise figure it out. I have seen so many threads just break

down
into nit-picking ****ing contest.

Again, you are getting wound up over nothing.

I know that you are able to discuss issues in a mature and

thoughtful
manner.

I wasn't discussing an issue. I was having fun with a reference to

the
potatoe incident.


Ok, have your fun, just don't choke laughing, and then try to blame

it
one me!


???


I have gotten to know enough about you to know that you have
alot to contribute to a discussion, and that you have a

perspective
that is valuable for me to hear. It is distressing and annoying

when
you get picky and penny ante, and I am inclined to just ignore

you
as I
do a few others.

Tinkerntom, by all means if you feel that you need to ignore me,

go
ahead,
by why you would chose to do so on the basis of the potatoe joke

will
surely
be a huge mystery.


I do not desire to ignore you as I said, I come to appreciate your
constructive comments, and maybe I need your help with my spelling

as
well.


Okelydokely then.

Why do I feel like I just lost.


Now you have me confuse, how is it you just lost, what did you lose?


There are times when we snipe at each other, and it can be fun,

from
the stand point that as we have gotten to know one another, we

know
each others hot buttons. Hopefully we do not do so to destroy the

other
person. I am sure that from your perspective of me going over the

edge,
while you are setting on your couch reading the dictionary, must

look
very humorous to a Martian checking out the local electronic

binary
data fields surrounding the Earth.

I don't think I even have a dictionary here, perhaps a scrabble

dictionary
somewhere. I don't use particular big words very often Tinkerntom.

Some of the quips are cute, clever, and funny, and then some are

mean,
nasty, and hurt. I would assume from what you have indicated

about
your
respect for mankind, that you would not intentionally hurt

another
human being. Why would you do it mentally, and then claim it was

fun.
See I've gotten to know you to well, and I actually don't think

you
are
such a bad guy!

Respectfully TnT

What are we talking about here? The potatoe spelling?


No, just what I said, I don't think that you are such bad guy!


High praise indeed. What would lead you to believe that I am a bad

guy in
the least?


We have had our trying moments! For which I apologize for any
unnecessary grief, not that it was all unnecessary.


I might
even be up your way sometimes, and would be glad to check out your
waterfront paddling realestate. TnT


OK, now I'm so frightened I might need to get some advice from

Scotty.*













































* This is a joke, Tinkerntom


He probably would tell you to get a gun, though that would really not
be necessary, me being the nice guy that I really am. But I don't want
you to be frightened, so if it makes you feel better, do whatever. TnT
