The hotel where we have always stayed in New Orleans: http://www.lerichelieuhotel.com/ If you like reasonably small hotels with real furniture in the rooms and no cookie-cutter-ness anywhere, this is the place to stay. Free parking on site, too, and within walking distance of a lot to see. Harry, do you feel a strong need to reply to every post I may make? I don't like hotels. I don't like bed bugs. I don't like dirty beds. I enjoy my RV, and get a lot of use from same. Just think.... $1500. Not a bad little sum. Just for acting somewhat mature. You could probably do it. Hehehe. All the cheap skates aren't on hockey players, eh, herring? The idea of traveling on the road all day and then spending the night in a little sardine can camper...naw. Sorry, Herring, not interested in your bet. Here's another reason why: there are many ways for you to wiggle out of it. Not with Tim holding our money, Harry. John, I could very easily refrain from insulting anyone here, directly or, as you do it usually, indirectly. Unlike you, I am in control of myself. If I were making such a bet, I wouldn't need Tim to hold my money or yours. You know where I live and I know where you live. I'll make you a counterbet. I'll bet you I can refrain from making a negative comment about any poster here for, say, two weeks. You can bet me I can't do that. At the end of the two weeks, if I have fulfilled the bet, you can send me $1500 cash. If not, I'll send you $1500 cash. By cash, I mean cash, genuine cashier's check, postal money orders... of the realm. That's the entire bet. Take it or leave it. What you do in that two week period or beyond is up to you and not part of the bet. I don't give a flying **** how you behave here. Accept or reject. Gee, two whole weeks? Wow. You're really sure of your capabilities, aren't you? Here's my counter-counter bet. We put up $1500, the money to be held by Tim. We eackh refrain from making negative comments about any other poster here for, say, until we can't control ourselves any longer. The first person to lose control and make a negative comment loses the bet. Tim sends the $3000 to wherever the winner chooses. Put something on the line besides your big mouth. Sorry, Herring...I'd only go for a fixed time period. You think two weeks is too short? Fine. Make it a month. And the bet is on my behavior, not yours. As I stated, I don't give a **** how you behave. You're free to do as you wish. The bet is on how I behave. As I said earlier, accept or reject. And I don't need Tim to hold your money or mine. If you lose I would expect you to pay up, directly. If you reject, which I am sure you will do, just move on with your moronic bets and continue to behave like the asshole you are. Accept or reject. Simple. Pffftt. Yeah, when someone was going to hold the money, you were absent. Now that you will be able to weasel out of paying, you are up for a bet all of a sudden... Right... Sorry, little ****, but I stated prior to your announcement regarding Tim I had no need of Tim holding "the bets." Herring seems hell-bent on "controlling" my behavior here with a bet. I, on the other hand, don't give a **** how he behaves here or anywhere else, so there's no reason for me to place a bet on how he behaves. My bet makes it real easy on him. I either don't insult anyone here for a month, in which case he loses, or I do insult here, in which case he wins. It's not dependent upon anyone else. Why are you getting into this? You couldn't raise $1500 cash to save the life of a blood relative. |

Sorry, bub, but as much as I dislike herring, I do believe he has the integrity to pay off on this bet if he takes it, which I doubt he will. I wouldn't trust a turd like you to go to the store for me with $2.00 and come back with a set of shoelaces. Oh...without getting into houses, one of which is in NE Florida and I own solely (and is worth three times what you claim yours is worth), I am one of three partners in a very successful strip shopping mall on the Boston Post Road in Connecticut. I've mentioned this before. It's the former boat store property. It is "worth" many many times what your one bathroom house with the motorcycle in the kitchen is worth. Oh, wait, I forgot...I also inherited a two bedroom condo in southeast Florida north of Ft. Lauderdale where my mother lived in her retirement and where two of my aged aunts now live. I have no idea what that place is worth; the aunts have lived there for nearly 18 years rent free. It's probably worth what you claim your house it worth. Oh...it has two bathrooms and no motorcycles in the kitchen. Have a nice day, little man. Oh...and get a job. |

Simple. Why should it be on your terms only? There are two sides to this. You expect someone to put up money and you yourself are too afraid to do so. |

You should see the mess they've made of the fairways at the golf course. This year seems much worse than I've seen it before. I've hit one with a ball and and I know a few others that have too. I hope you killed it. And, I hope it wasn't swimming at the time. That could cost a stroke. There's no amount of dead geese worth a penalty stroke. That is one advantage of not keeping score. ;-) The only rule about killing a goose is someone should dress it out and eat it. Waste not, want not. Golf course geese are usually good eating but they may be fatty. Try to limit them to once a week. I tried a goose once, in Germany where they're common at Christmastime. (Gosh, I hope my mention of Christmas didn't **** off anyone.) Anyway, it was atrocious. My kid took the first bite, which she spit out. I sent her to her room. I then took my first bite, which I spit out. So, I called my daughter, apologized for trying to make her eat the stuff, and we had hamburgers for Christmas dinner. Some years ago, my wife and I spent the Thanksgiving holiday in New Orleans. The concierge at the little hotel where we were staying recommended a Thanksgiving holiday buffet at one of the old, famous New Orleans hotel restaurants, I forgot which one. Anyway, we went. The food was indeed fabulous, everything beautiful and properly prepared. There was a roast goose there, so I asked one of the servers to slice off a piece for me. It looked okay and it smelled okay, but I didn't care much for the taste. To me, it tasted overly fatty and gamey. That was the first and only time I tried roasted goose. The hotel where we have always stayed in New Orleans: http://www.lerichelieuhotel.com/ If you like reasonably small hotels with real furniture in the rooms and no cookie-cutter-ness anywhere, this is the place to stay. Free parking on site, too, and within walking distance of a lot to see. Harry, do you feel a strong need to reply to every post I may make? I don't like hotels. I don't like bed bugs. I don't like dirty beds. I enjoy my RV, and get a lot of use from same. Just think.... $1500. Not a bad little sum. Just for acting somewhat mature. You could probably do it. Hehehe. All the cheap skates aren't on hockey players, eh, herring? The idea of traveling on the road all day and then spending the night in a little sardine can camper...naw. Sorry, Herring, not interested in your bet. Here's another reason why: there are many ways for you to wiggle out of it. Not with Tim holding our money, Harry. John, I could very easily refrain from insulting anyone here, directly or, as you do it usually, indirectly. Unlike you, I am in control of myself. If I were making such a bet, I wouldn't need Tim to hold my money or yours. You know where I live and I know where you live. I'll make you a counterbet. I'll bet you I can refrain from making a negative comment about any poster here for, say, two weeks. You can bet me I can't do that. At the end of the two weeks, if I have fulfilled the bet, you can send me $1500 cash. If not, I'll send you $1500 cash. By cash, I mean cash, genuine cashier's check, postal money orders... of the realm. That's the entire bet. Take it or leave it. What you do in that two week period or beyond is up to you and not part of the bet. I don't give a flying **** how you behave here. Accept or reject. Gee, two whole weeks? Wow. You're really sure of your capabilities, aren't you? Here's my counter-counter bet. We put up $1500, the money to be held by Tim. We eackh refrain from making negative comments about any other poster here for, say, until we can't control ourselves any longer. The first person to lose control and make a negative comment loses the bet. Tim sends the $3000 to wherever the winner chooses. Put something on the line besides your big mouth. Sorry, Herring...I'd only go for a fixed time period. You think two weeks is too short? Fine. Make it a month. And the bet is on my behavior, not yours. As I stated, I don't give a **** how you behave. You're free to do as you wish. The bet is on how I behave. As I said earlier, accept or reject. And I don't need Tim to hold your money or mine. If you lose I would expect you to pay up, directly. If you reject, which I am sure you will do, just move on with your moronic bets and continue to behave like the asshole you are. Accept or reject. Simple. Pffftt. Yeah, when someone was going to hold the money, you were absent. Now that you will be able to weasel out of paying, you are up for a bet all of a sudden... Right... Sorry, little ****, but I stated prior to your announcement regarding Tim I had no need of Tim holding "the bets." Herring seems hell-bent on "controlling" my behavior here with a bet. I, on the other hand, don't give a **** how he behaves here or anywhere else, so there's no reason for me to place a bet on how he behaves. My bet makes it real easy on him. I either don't insult anyone here for a month, in which case he loses, or I do insult here, in which case he wins. It's not dependent upon anyone else. Why are you getting into this? You couldn't raise $1500 cash to save the life of a blood relative. Wanna bet? How about your home against mine. Mine just appraised at 240,000 and is paid for... Got a house to put up, or are you just making **** up again...? Monopoly, right here in River City! What's next for you, Scotty? Measuring the length of your penis and comparing it to the others? |

I can under stand the birds in Arkansas (sort of) being hit by lightning, but millions of dead fish in the Chesapeake bay? hmmm Pretty simple, actually.... the Feds poisoned them.... http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,483627,00.html Wish they'd come up with the same program for Canada Geese. They do. I work at an airport where they have hired the feds as hitmen. They spray the eggs so that new generations don't hatch and for the ones that don't get it, they carry 12 gauge finalizers...... A goose poops like an elephant.... No ****. No - lots of ****. You should see the mess they've made of the fairways at the golf course. This year seems much worse than I've seen it before. I've hit one with a ball and and I know a few others that have too. I hope you killed it. And, I hope it wasn't swimming at the time. That could cost a stroke. There's no amount of dead geese worth a penalty stroke. That is one advantage of not keeping score. ;-) The only rule about killing a goose is someone should dress it out and eat it. Waste not, want not. Golf course geese are usually good eating but they may be fatty. Try to limit them to once a week. I tried a goose once, in Germany where they're common at Christmastime. (Gosh, I hope my mention of Christmas didn't **** off anyone.) Anyway, it was atrocious. My kid took the first bite, which she spit out. I sent her to her room. I then took my first bite, which I spit out. So, I called my daughter, apologized for trying to make her eat the stuff, and we had hamburgers for Christmas dinner. Some years ago, my wife and I spent the Thanksgiving holiday in New Orleans. The concierge at the little hotel where we were staying recommended a Thanksgiving holiday buffet at one of the old, famous New Orleans hotel restaurants, I forgot which one. Anyway, we went. The food was indeed fabulous, everything beautiful and properly prepared. There was a roast goose there, so I asked one of the servers to slice off a piece for me. It looked okay and it smelled okay, but I didn't care much for the taste. To me, it tasted overly fatty and gamey. That was the first and only time I tried roasted goose. The hotel where we have always stayed in New Orleans: http://www.lerichelieuhotel.com/ If you like reasonably small hotels with real furniture in the rooms and no cookie-cutter-ness anywhere, this is the place to stay. Free parking on site, too, and within walking distance of a lot to see. Harry, do you feel a strong need to reply to every post I may make? I don't like hotels. I don't like bed bugs. I don't like dirty beds. I enjoy my RV, and get a lot of use from same. Just think.... $1500. Not a bad little sum. Just for acting somewhat mature. You could probably do it. Hehehe. All the cheap skates aren't on hockey players, eh, herring? The idea of traveling on the road all day and then spending the night in a little sardine can camper...naw. Sorry, Herring, not interested in your bet. Here's another reason why: there are many ways for you to wiggle out of it. Not with Tim holding our money, Harry. John, I could very easily refrain from insulting anyone here, directly or, as you do it usually, indirectly. Unlike you, I am in control of myself. If I were making such a bet, I wouldn't need Tim to hold my money or yours. You know where I live and I know where you live. I'll make you a counterbet. I'll bet you I can refrain from making a negative comment about any poster here for, say, two weeks. You can bet me I can't do that. At the end of the two weeks, if I have fulfilled the bet, you can send me $1500 cash. If not, I'll send you $1500 cash. By cash, I mean cash, genuine cashier's check, postal money orders... of the realm. That's the entire bet. Take it or leave it. What you do in that two week period or beyond is up to you and not part of the bet. I don't give a flying **** how you behave here. Accept or reject. Gee, two whole weeks? Wow. You're really sure of your capabilities, aren't you? Here's my counter-counter bet. We put up $1500, the money to be held by Tim. We eackh refrain from making negative comments about any other poster here for, say, until we can't control ourselves any longer. The first person to lose control and make a negative comment loses the bet. Tim sends the $3000 to wherever the winner chooses. Put something on the line besides your big mouth. Sorry, Herring...I'd only go for a fixed time period. You think two weeks is too short? Fine. Make it a month. And the bet is on my behavior, not yours. As I stated, I don't give a **** how you behave. You're free to do as you wish. The bet is on how I behave. As I said earlier, accept or reject. And I don't need Tim to hold your money or mine. If you lose I would expect you to pay up, directly. If you reject, which I am sure you will do, just move on with your moronic bets and continue to behave like the asshole you are. Accept or reject. Simple. Five years, Harry. Go for it. Just to make it easy, we'll say 31 December, 2015. That gives you a few free weeks. Yeah, I figured you wouldn't really have the stones. No one would take your offer, dumb ass. What's in it for John? It's one sided because you are a pussy. |
