Our own Johnny was only a LT Colonel yet his pension enables him to buy an endless supply of handguns, and the means to invest in whatever new hobby happens to enter his mind.. such as motorcycle riding, big over-sized trucks, over-sized campers.., golfing etc etc.
Envy is one of the seven deadly sins.

Don insists on acting like this... seems he just can't help himself.

Yes, I insist on speaking the truth as I know it.
Guilty as charged...
BTW I thought you were instructing others to "ploink" me...

Don, here's the truth:

My gosh, the guy is full of comments about my stuff, but disregards Harry's collection of guns, his
motorcycling, oversized trawler, Apple computers, etc, etc.

How does that play out in your mind?

You pop in to make smart-assed comments, to do your name-calling, and then pop out when a legitimate
response gets thrown your way. I assume you're too f'ing embarrassed to respond. Maybe it would be
easier to just knock off the ****. I know of no one who *initiates* any crap with you, yet you're
always in the middle of a mess of your own making.

I've gone out of my way to try to respond sociably to your decent posts. It seems to have no affect
on you. Why?

Am I just stupid...

Is it important that other posters share your hobbies? This is a boating

No, it's not important. Don mentioned he had a few hobbies. I, sociably, asked what they were.
