FOAD, let's be a bit honest here. You and I both know that your
insults continue as before, you've
simply toned down the language a bit and have become somewhat more
indirect.

What did you think of Waynes post about the "Dark Tetrad"? Wasn't
that interesting?


I've mostly left the nasty comments about other posters here to the
right-wing snarkasses. I don't read Wayne's droppings, and if he is
second-handed to me via a quote in someone else's post, I tend to
passover his comments. Therefore, I do not know and do not care about
Dark Tetrads, whatever or whoever they are.
Opinions aren't always driven by politics, Krause. You are just ****ed
off because the VW plant voted against unionization. Get used to it.

Last but not least it's always sadly interesting to watch the ongoing

"De Nile"?



HA! I always loved this song, by Mel Tillis' daughter, Pam...

Poor Wayne. He's reduced himself to a more educated version of "Slammer

the Insulter" .



So, Tim, do you still think your good buddy Wayne qualifies for your

statement of "odd, I haven't seen Wayne start but a couple threads
this

year and they weren't designed to get people stirred up over nothing."

Of course, he isn't going to get me stirred up, but he's trying. That's

why he's down in the dumpster with Slammer and a few other juveniles.

So Harry, are you saying you don't stir anything at all in here, good
buddy??


Did I say that? No. What I said was that Wayne has with his daily
personal insults reduced himself to a more educated version of
Slammer. That's why I shoved him into the dumpster. I for the most
part have refrained since the beginning of the year from personally
insulting other posters here. Wayne has not, Hank has not, Slammer has
not, and a couple of others have not.
A true professional would have written: "I, for the most part,
have...". You chose to not highlight the "for the most part" point in
your post. It's obvious why you took that path.

His punctuation is horrible, doncha think?

Oh Wayne, be nice. We just went through Valentine's Day, a day to bestow love, hugs, and kisses.

Besides, it's his cut'n'pastin' that earns the award.

I don't pay much attention to my own spelling or grammar here since
after all it is just rec.boats. I pay even less attention to spelling or
grammar here when I post with my cell phone.

Francis Bacon, the lesser known brother of the fellow who invented the
popular breakfast meat (ha!), used the phrase exactly as I did, sans
commas, in his Novum Organum. Bacon was a tad more formally edu-ma-cated
in his native language than your two right-wing buddies here.

Is it your presumption that rec.boats is worth paying close attention?
