Oh yeah, sure, I'm dumb all right. No doubt about it. What's your IQ
Mys. Terry? What were your SAT scores? Ever been in Mensa? How much
enterprise-level software have you designed and developed? How
accomplished a musician you are (I'll give you the set list of the band
I play in, tell me how long it would take you to figure out and
recreate the keyboard parts and vocal arrangements to all the Yes, ELP,
Dream Theatre, Rush, material we cover, I'll give you a decade head
start.) (Sorry I made a few typos in my previous post in your "super
secret code," guess I was a little sloppy, I think your original
feeling was that I woud be baffled by your ingenious code and think it
was gibberish, when in fact, I "solved" it in about five minutes, like
I said, I was solving those since I think I was about eleven or
twelve.... okay, you got me, I transposed a few of the letters
incorrectly from the sheet I scribblingly solved it on into my post,
that's kind of beyond the point, oh yeah, I'm dumb.) Do you do the
Sunday NY Times crossword puzzles; how long does it take you, I'll race
you on one any week, any year, in fact that's what I often to on my pwc
on a Sunday, take the crossword to a puzzle and a pen in a dry bag to a
boating beach and do the puzzle in the sun, love to meet you out there
and see you try one one weekend this summer. What was dumb IMO was
for you to think there was anything remotely clever or interesting or
challenging or smart about putting your in a simple child's
substitution code in the first place as if that was going to be somehow
stupeified by this billiant ingenious ruse.

All of this silly self aggrandizement just proves my point and shows
why you are making friends here so easily.

Hey, YOU were the one that questioned and insulted my intelligence.
Sorry I took offense and responded instead of just cowering away, "Mys
Terry,"
more cleverness and brilliance there.
And how self aggrandizing was it to put your lame message in
substitution code for no earthly reason? Seemed like the only possible
reason was because you thought it somehow made you look clever or
smart.

You are just another
annoying belligerent Jetskier with an overblown ego. You really don't
sound all that intelligent, either.

Again....you're wrong. Sorry to sound self-aggrandizing but I"m
responding to your statements, which are gratuitously hurtful and
insulting to me. As it happens, I am extremely, highly intelligent.
In the top 2 percentile of the population.

Gee, all that 'talent' and you can't learn how to sail.
