Frogwatch

Hey, a couple of us are discussing philosophy in another thread and we
haven't come to blows yet. I think boating is a philosophy. I was never
much
of a power boater.. don't see the attraction.. if I want to go fast, I
take
a plane. Sailing on the other hand, seems very zen-like.


Ms Plume has been a cogent poster here and I enjoyed our exchanges,
even if we don't agree on a lot of things but I think I am joining the
"trusers" myself. When discussions simply become insults I don't want
to participate anymore.



Thanks! Agreement is over-rated anyway. It doesn't add much to understanding
if all you have is a bunch of people nodding their heads in agreement. When
I'm with my close friends, we argue all the time about politics and
religion. A couple of them are Born-againers and we can have a lively
discussion without screeching.

I'm afraid you won't see that happening here, Sweetie. There's some folk
here that are programmed to holler racist, bigot, moron, and insult
family members at every opportunity. It's usually in response to someone
expressing an opinion on politics or religeon.
You never answered John about why you get so aroused over talking with a
bunch of nasty old men about religion and politics. Don't you have
anything better to do?

Then you should be able to evidentially reveal the other poster's

What you think I
"should" do and what *I* decide I will do only coincide when *I* decide
they do.


I'm sorry, Harry, but this doesn't even make sense,
contextually or otherwise.

That's rich. With all your ponderous scribbling you're having trouble
parsing Harry's simple phrase.

It's not the parsing that is problematic, JPS. It's the ostensible
assumption on his part that I 'thought' he should reveal the other
poster's identity. His response was juxtaposed below my assertion
that he should be able to divulge the other person's identity. There
was no requirement for him to do so, implicitly or explicitly. Does
that make sense? There are support groups that help with
comprehending "ponderous scribbling," if that will help at all.


Fresh in from the Ponderosa with a mouthful.

I haven't any trouble understanding your ponderosities.

You're like a young jazz musician who knows how to play a lot of notes
fast and hasn't yet discovered the spaces between the notes are what
make the music worth listening to.

You're a young writer, perhaps not in years.


Interesting. You would express an opinion of the writing style of
someone who doesn't aspire to be a 'writer' rather than examine the
error of your own statement. I suppose that's understandable, and it
stands as a tested tatic. It certainly can't be for being unable to
follow the course of the conversation, as you "haven't any trouble
understanding ponderosities."

Is there any reason that you expect to a more belletristic style of
me?


Rather than giving it lift, your verbosity adds no value to the
communication.

You apply drag to any spirit your communication may have carried with
ponderous mouthfuls of lead-like verbiage.

Shall I go on?

"He" reminds me of some of the freshmen I encountered when I taught
bonehead English. There were always a couple of overwrought, purple
prose wannabe writers among the students I taught in every class.

If they were particularly obnoxious in class, I would slash and burn my
way through their homework with a red pen.


Harry, that reminds of me of my first year in college in comp class. I
had submitted my first writing assignment, and a short time later the
professor of the class came into the book store by the student union,
having seen me in there, to commend me on my writing and the quality
of the essay. I was surprised by that, of course. He said that I was
far ahead of most other freshmen that he usually had in his class. He
was equally surprised when he learned that I had little desire to be a
writer. I went into engineering. Silly me.


And now you sell insurance?

Even professors can be buffoons, you know. Most who consider
themselves right-of-center have little regard for the liberal arts so
I haven't a clue why you'd think his commendation held any value.



"Comp class" was the sort of official name of the "Bonehead English"
classes I taught. "English composition 101." It sure was hell was *not*
usually taught by "professors," but, rather, by lowly T.A.'s, or
teaching assistants. That's what I was, a master's student in English
trying to earn a few bucks to help defray my university costs.

Contrary to your claim, you must be having difficulty with my

value.

And, yes, I sell insurance, among other things.

Hey, a couple of us are discussing philosophy in another thread and we

Thanks! Agreement is over-rated anyway. It doesn't add much to

Thanks! Agreement is over-rated anyway. It doesn't add much to
understanding if all you have is a bunch of people nodding their heads in
agreement. When I'm with my close friends, we argue all the time about
politics and religion. A couple of them are Born-againers and we can have
a lively discussion without screeching.

No you are most certainly not Toots Sweet. I am Toots Sweet.

I could be you if I wanted to.

However, allow me to introduce myself. I am Sean "Toots" Flanagan -
Son of The Sod immigrating here when I was but a wee lad at 5 years
old to use the hoary vernacular. While I largely keep to myself
nowadays since my dear bride Emma (40 years of blessed marriage) died,
I have been slowly reintroducing myself into polite society as time
and obligations permit.

I am a bartender by trade, a philosopher by training and own two
resturant/pubs in a major East Coast metropolitan area which are very
successful due to hard work and long hours. I enjoy cruising and
sailing. I recently sold my two boats, a forty eight foot Hatteras
and a 56 foot Mason Yachts cutter and purchased a thirty six foot
Zimmerman Marine cruiser in which I plan to enjoy the islands of the
Carribean with my last years on this Earth. My sons and daughter are
handling the business

Which is why I'm here. One of the participants in this newsgroup (who
shall remain nameless for obvious reasons) mentioned that there was a
chap here who owned a similar boat to my Zimmerman and maybe we could
discuss the similarities and differences between boats as Zimmerman
Yachts are generally custom built to specification. As of yet, I have
not seen much in the way of boating posts and I'm still not aware of
who owns the Zimmerman because after taking the lay of the land by
observation for a few weeks, it became apparent that this is not a
"boating" group at all, but a place for rancourous political
discourse. Being libertarian by nature (and most likely heritage) I
had to join the fray by tickling the sensitivities of the left wing
pseudo revolutionaries that seem to infest most on-line forums now.
It's our nature as Irishmen to argue over anything at any time - one
might almost think we are really Italians.

So, with that out of the way, perhaps you might point out to me who
owns the Zimmerman or perhaps after reading this, the person who does
might want to open up discussion about our boats. Maybe even join up
for a short cruise showing the Zimmerman flag if you will as there are
not a lot of Zimmerman Yachts around.


Well, Harry, the second biggest liar in the group said he owned a
"Zimmerman like" lobsta' boat! But of course he also said his father
crossed the Atlantic in a small skiff to a fireboat welcome. He also
noted that he has personally um:
Single handed around the horn
Single handed to Catalina Island
Graduated Yale
Worked for a secret project in Viet Nam
Worked for the last 8 presidents
....................

There is a lengthy list of bull**** this guy has provided us with over
the years, but really, nobody here but Donnie believes him... That's why
we call him "WAFA"... snerk


He is also a narcissist and a sycophant.

This from a man who makes comments like this?:

Why am I unconcerned?



Your concern concerns me not. The funny thing is that you fell for the
other poster's tale, hook, line, and stinker.


Then you should be able to evidentially reveal the other poster's
identity.



The "other poster," to whom you refer, is in my bozo bin, which is where
he resided in most of his other iterations here. What you think I
"should" do and what *I* decide I will do only coincide when *I* decide
they do.


Your concern for JustHate's feelings also are humorous, as is his lack
of grief for his recently departed father.


Do you ever get anything straight? I didn't express concerns for
JustHate's feelings in any way whatsoever. I expressed a warranted
loathing for your general lack of civility and decorum. There are
some things that don't need to be uttered, and you utter them anyway,
virtually in bad taste in every instance. It's a demonstrable lack of
self-control, a form of verbal incontence.

So there you have it. That's my cathartic moment, and I did it
without any of the vile acrimony and emotive bilge that defines your
character.



In my opinion, JustHate is such a sleaze there simply is no excuse to
treat him as if he were something else. The hardest work he does is to
remain unemployable and suck down taxpayer benefits while he plays
right-wing stooge. **** him.



Serious narcissism!

I'm sorry, Harry, but this doesn't even make sense,
contextually or otherwise.

That's rich. With all your ponderous scribbling you're having trouble
parsing Harry's simple phrase.

It's not the parsing that is problematic, JPS. It's the ostensible
assumption on his part that I 'thought' he should reveal the other
poster's identity. His response was juxtaposed below my assertion
that he should be able to divulge the other person's identity. There
was no requirement for him to do so, implicitly or explicitly. Does
that make sense? There are support groups that help with
comprehending "ponderous scribbling," if that will help at all.


Fresh in from the Ponderosa with a mouthful.

I haven't any trouble understanding your ponderosities.

You're like a young jazz musician who knows how to play a lot of notes
fast and hasn't yet discovered the spaces between the notes are what
make the music worth listening to.

You're a young writer, perhaps not in years.



"He" reminds me of some of the freshmen I encountered when I taught
bonehead English. There were always a couple of overwrought, purple
prose wannabe writers among the students I taught in every class.

If they were particularly obnoxious in class, I would slash and burn my

Harry, that reminds of me of my first year in college in comp class. I
had submitted my first writing assignment, and a short time later the
professor of the class came into the book store by the student union,
having seen me in there, to commend me on my writing and the quality
of the essay. I was surprised by that, of course. He said that I was
far ahead of most other freshmen that he usually had in his class. He
was equally surprised when he learned that I had little desire to be a
writer. I went into engineering. Silly me.


And now you sell insurance?

Even professors can be buffoons, you know. Most who consider
themselves right-of-center have little regard for the liberal arts so
I haven't a clue why you'd think his commendation held any value.



"Comp class" was the sort of official name of the "Bonehead English"
classes I taught. "English composition 101." It sure was hell was *not*
usually taught by "professors," but, rather, by lowly T.A.'s, or
teaching assistants. That's what I was, a master's student in English
trying to earn a few bucks to help defray my university costs.

Reasonable as in Joe Wilson screaming "liar" at the President?

Are those the reasonable people you are?

Clearly, you've now co-opted the word reasonable along with
conservative. It now means asshole.

****in' unbelievable how you fantasize about your own kind.

Hey, a couple of us are discussing philosophy in another thread and
we
haven't come to blows yet. I think boating is a philosophy. I was
never
much
of a power boater.. don't see the attraction.. if I want to go
fast,
I
take
a plane. Sailing on the other hand, seems very zen-like.


Ms Plume has been a cogent poster here and I enjoyed our exchanges,
even if we don't agree on a lot of things but I think I am joining
the
"trusers" myself. When discussions simply become insults I don't
want
to participate anymore.


Thanks! Agreement is over-rated anyway. It doesn't add much to
understanding if all you have is a bunch of people nodding their
heads
in
agreement. When I'm with my close friends, we argue all the time
about
politics and religion. A couple of them are Born-againers and we can
have
a lively discussion without screeching.


I'm afraid you won't see that happening here, Sweetie. There's some
folk
here that are programmed to holler racist, bigot, moron, and insult
family
members at every opportunity. It's usually in response to someone
expressing an opinion on politics or religeon.
You never answered John about why you get so aroused over talking with
a
bunch of nasty old men about religion and politics. Don't you have
anything better to do?

Hmm... the two aren't mutually exclusive.

Hmmm... I don't disparage those who have a different political philosophy..


"Unlike Republicans, Democrats are much less monolithic."
"Perhaps they're clinging to their guns and bibles"
"Or are you talking about Republicans, who didn't lift a finger when
Bush spent
like crazy? "
"Sickening. Glen Beck/Rush Limbaugh mentality."
"Are you telling us you condone what the previous president *you* put
in
office did? Feel free to insult me or say it's Bush rationale if that
makes
you feel better. "

That's just a quick review of a few of your posts where you most
definitley *did* attempt to disparage those who have a different
political philosophy. I'm sure you'll now say that they are just your
observations, but they, by definition, "disparage those who have a
different political philosophy".

Words do have meaning, you know.

By "side" he means you'll offer your skirt as a hiding place.

Most of the serious headcases here maintain sock puppets so they don't
get diagnosed with MPD, as would be the case with Toots. He's got a
rich fantasy life wherein most people are conservative (the modern
definition).

Florida Jim is one of ranking assholes of rec.boats, a boatless, jealous,
cantankerous old fart who hasn't had a decent job since being mustered out
of the Vietnam era navy.

He's also a coward.


Apart from the Vietnam part, you described yourself to a tee.

He's also a coward.


That's the description of you, that explains why the Vietnam part doesn't
apply.

You are fooling no one, butthole.

all this political and economic nonsense. You cant change nuttin by
bawling and blustering about it here. Go join some political action group

I'm afraid you won't see that happening here, Sweetie. There's
some
folk
here that are programmed to holler racist, bigot, moron, and
insult
family
members at every opportunity. It's usually in response to someone
expressing an opinion on politics or religeon.
You never answered John about why you get so aroused over talking
with
a
bunch of nasty old men about religion and politics. Don't you have
anything better to do?
Pot, kettle, black. Looks like you're outnumbered by reasonable

Like most liberals, you're numerically and judgmentally challenged.
Like most people, I call them the way I see them.
Hmm... the two aren't mutually exclusive.
Have a good weekend!
Hmmm... I don't disparage those who have a different political
philosophy.

"Unlike Republicans, Democrats are much less monolithic."
"Perhaps they're clinging to their guns and bibles"
"Or are you talking about Republicans, who didn't lift a finger when
Bush spent
like crazy? "
"Sickening. Glen Beck/Rush Limbaugh mentality."
"Are you telling us you condone what the previous president *you* put
in
office did? Feel free to insult me or say it's Bush rationale if that
makes
you feel better. "

That's just a quick review of a few of your posts where you most
definitley *did* attempt to disparage those who have a different
political philosophy. I'm sure you'll now say that they are just your
observations, but they, by definition, "disparage those who have a
different political philosophy".

Words do have meaning, you know.


YEAH! Remember, is, is!! Well unless it isn't... um, is, is not...
whatever...



Woooo.... Clinton got a blow job. Call CNN.

It isn't me, blame someone else. He/she is prolific though. I
stopped posting political stuff for our truce and have kept my
word.
I always thought jps was HK but will give him/her the benefit of
doubt. If y'all will look back at Toots first posts, you will
see
that I tried to discourage him/her due to said truce.

Hey, a couple of us are discussing philosophy in another thread
and
we
haven't come to blows yet. I think boating is a philosophy. I was
never
much
of a power boater.. don't see the attraction.. if I want to go
fast,
I
take
a plane. Sailing on the other hand, seems very zen-like.
Ms Plume has been a cogent poster here and I enjoyed our exchanges,
even if we don't agree on a lot of things but I think I am joining
the
"trusers" myself. When discussions simply become insults I don't
want
to participate anymore.

Thanks! Agreement is over-rated anyway. It doesn't add much to
understanding if all you have is a bunch of people nodding their
heads
in
agreement. When I'm with my close friends, we argue all the time
about
politics and religion. A couple of them are Born-againers and we can
have
a lively discussion without screeching.

Why are you not thanking Harry for his insightful personality
assessments?

He's a great man to have on your side!

Harry is not on my "side" and I'm not on his.


Please...you're confusing the moron.

By "side" he means you'll offer your skirt as a hiding place.


Well, I don't usually wear a skirt.



I didn't imagine you as the feminine type.

Reply: Nothing was disparaging in anything I said. I didn't insinuate
anything about you personally. However, you have no problem doing that with
others.

Words definitely have meaning, I do know.


Sweetcheeks, you have your bloomers all wedged up. Lighten up. Forget
about politics for a while. Tell us about your boating adventure with
that older couple. After all you signed on here to discuss boating,
didn't you?

That has to be the most sexist remark ever posted here.
Congratulations Flatulent Jim. You've finally discovered your one true
talent.
