.... but I was just nosing around on your Facebook page. Read some of
the few comments on your timeline and then clicked on "Friends" to see
how many you had there.

A box appeared labeled "Friends" but it was blank other than:

"No friends to show"



Got a chuckle out of that one.

Sorry Harry ...

Bull****. My wife and I are not 'Friends' on Facebook, yet I can see all her friends. Again, you're
full of crap.

Oh, to forestall your snide comments, we purposely don't want to see all the posts the other
(especially Sandy) makes. If you had friends, you'd understand.

Here's an example, just for you. Got to Mike Hoefle's home page. Click on 'Friends'. You'll see a
bunch. Are you a friend of his? Neither am I. I've no idea who he is.

In fairness John, you can set up your Facebook page as public, friends
only or totally private in terms of who can view it's content including
the "friends list". Harry obviously has his set on "friends only" and
not "public". I knew that when I saw the "No friends to display" but I
still got a kick out of it due to his reputation on rec.boats.

Sorry Harry ...

No, John didn't lie but he is in error in terms of how Facebook works.
Users can control who sees the content, including the friends list by
selecting "public" or "Friends only".

That's what I've been told a number of times, although I've turned down or ignored a number of 'friend requests'
I've never forgotten my experience with the L'il Snot guy from Connecticut or Scott Secord Dickson (alias Slammer) and their enablers, aiders and abetors.
Not that I was worried about old friends and relatives threatening me and my family, but more worried of potentially exposing them to the likes of the named lowlife in here. No one deserves that!

Before I had a better understanding of how Facebook works and it's
settings, the CT Scott started making comments on my then active
Facebook page. My feeling was what happens or is said in rec.boats
stays in rec.boats.

I figured out how to block him completely on Facebook.

Not being a right-winger in the rec.boats sea of right-wing ****ters
will do that.

Indeed, I have my FB settings set about as you have described. I do have
a good number of Republicans on my friends list, including a few I have
known for many decades. They're bright, know how to write, and are
totally unlike many of the personally insulting TDC snarks like your
Florida buddy and of course, the Racist Herring. One of my FB buds even
knew my Republican mother.

In all honestly, I think of rec.boats as a place for entertainment, a

It has certainly has changed since it was a legitimate boating forum
although even then the debates were commonplace. I get a kick out of
all the various personalities here and really don't take anything

I prefer the FB forums. One of the reasons is that virtually everyone
posts with their actual name. That tends to limit the "opportunities" of
assholes like your buddy FlaJim. Only one of my FB friends posts under
an assumed name, and that's because he's an undercover law enforcement
fella who "outs" violent and violence-prone right-wing extremists. I've
known him for 20+ years.

Like I said, I don't take anything here seriously. Some, like FlaJim,
maintain a rec.boats persona that isn't even close to their real life
persona. Jim gets your goat because you take it so seriously and he
knows it. I know you'll argue that, but it doesn't matter.

I don't do Facebook forums although there are two or three groups I
visit from time to time just to read. I've become a little phobic about
privacy issues and Facebook is known to be a source of info on you by
marketeers, scammers, etc. Better to keep a low profile in this day and
age, IMO.

Believe it or not, I have "unfollowed" many people I am "friends" with
because I got sick and tired of all the politics, both from those on the
left and those on the right. You probably know that you can "unfollow"
without "unfriending". Unfollowing just deletes their posts from your
timeline. You can still go to their personal pages if there's something
of interest to you.

Sorry Harry ...

In fairness John, you can set up your Facebook page as public,
friends
only or totally private in terms of who can view it's content
including
the "friends list". Harry obviously has his set on "friends
only" and
not "public". I knew that when I saw the "No friends to display"
but I
still got a kick out of it due to his reputation on rec.boats.



Not being a right-winger in the rec.boats sea of right-wing ****ters
will do that.

Indeed, I have my FB settings set about as you have described. I
do have
a good number of Republicans on my friends list, including a few I
have
known for many decades. They're bright, know how to write, and are
totally unlike many of the personally insulting TDC snarks like your
Florida buddy and of course, the Racist Herring. One of my FB buds
even
knew my Republican mother.


In all honestly, I think of rec.boats as a place for entertainment, a
few chuckles here and there and an amateur debating society of
sorts. It
has certainly has changed since it was a legitimate boating forum
although even then the debates were commonplace. I get a kick out of
all the various personalities here and really don't take anything
seriously. Sometimes I'll post something off the wall just to see the
arrows fly.

My guess is that in real life, he is even more of an ignorant ass.
There is
no evidence to the contrary.

This is what I get a kick out of. You're right. You have no evidence
and he has made sure of that. I have evidence as do others of what he's
really like in real life.





I agree. In all the years he has posted here, I cannot think of one
instance in which he has posted anything that indicates any real
intelligence about anything. I doubt that is an act.

I don't do Facebook forums although there are two or three groups I
visit from time to time just to read. I've become a little phobic about
privacy issues and Facebook is known to be a source of info on you by
marketeers, scammers, etc. Better to keep a low profile in this day and
age, IMO.

Believe it or not, I have "unfollowed" many people I am "friends" with
because I got sick and tired of all the politics, both from those on the
left and those on the right. You probably know that you can "unfollow"
without "unfriending". Unfollowing just deletes their posts from your
timeline. You can still go to their personal pages if there's something
of interest to you.









My wife has an account for the grandkids viewing. But most posts I see
from some of our friends kids on Facebook make me shake my head in wonder
at the idiocy displayed. Who gives a crap what you had for breakfast?
Lots of stuff ought to stay internal to you family also.

"Moron" is not a term used these days by mental health professionals. If
you feel the need for a mental acuity examination, you probably don't
want a psychiatrist. If you just want to determine if Alzheimer's is
setting in, though, you could take the Self-Administered Gerocognitive
Exam, or SAGE to see if you have the onset of cognitive and brain
dysfunction. It's available online.

Sorry Harry ...

No, John didn't lie but he is in error in terms of how Facebook works.

selecting "public" or "Friends only".

The Facebook group for my RV has definitely provided some good info. Same is true of the motorcycle

hours.

Got a chuckle out of that one.


You have to be a FB friend to see that and most other info...

Bull****. My wife and I are not 'Friends' on Facebook, yet I can see
all her friends. Again, you're
full of crap.

Oh, to forestall your snide comments, we purposely don't want to see
all the posts the other
(especially Sandy) makes. If you had friends, you'd understand.

Here's an example, just for you. Got to Mike Hoefle's home page. Click
on 'Friends'. You'll see a
bunch. Are you a friend of his? Neither am I. I've no idea who he is.

In fairness John, you can set up your Facebook page as public, friends
only or totally private in terms of who can view it's content including
the "friends list". Harry obviously has his set on "friends only" and
not "public". I knew that when I saw the "No friends to display"
but I
still got a kick out of it due to his reputation on rec.boats.



Not being a right-winger in the rec.boats sea of right-wing ****ters
will do that.

Indeed, I have my FB settings set about as you have described. I do have
a good number of Republicans on my friends list, including a few I have
known for many decades. They're bright, know how to write, and are
totally unlike many of the personally insulting TDC snarks like your
Florida buddy and of course, the Racist Herring. One of my FB buds even
knew my Republican mother.


In all honestly, I think of rec.boats as a place for entertainment, a
few chuckles here and there and an amateur debating society of sorts. It
has certainly has changed since it was a legitimate boating forum
although even then the debates were commonplace. I get a kick out of
all the various personalities here and really don't take anything
seriously. Sometimes I'll post something off the wall just to see the
arrows fly.



I prefer the FB forums. One of the reasons is that virtually everyone
posts with their actual name. That tends to limit the "opportunities" of
assholes like your buddy FlaJim. Only one of my FB friends posts under
an assumed name, and that's because he's an undercover law enforcement
fella who "outs" violent and violence-prone right-wing extremists. I've
known him for 20+ years.


Like I said, I don't take anything here seriously. Some, like FlaJim,
maintain a rec.boats persona that isn't even close to their real life
persona. Jim gets your goat because you take it so seriously and he
knows it. I know you'll argue that, but it doesn't matter.

I don't do Facebook forums although there are two or three groups I
visit from time to time just to read. I've become a little phobic about
privacy issues and Facebook is known to be a source of info on you by
marketeers, scammers, etc. Better to keep a low profile in this day and
age, IMO.

Believe it or not, I have "unfollowed" many people I am "friends" with
because I got sick and tired of all the politics, both from those on the
left and those on the right. You probably know that you can "unfollow"
without "unfriending". Unfollowing just deletes their posts from your
timeline. You can still go to their personal pages if there's something
of interest to you.









My wife has an account for the grandkids viewing. But most posts I see
from some of our friends kids on Facebook make me shake my head in wonder
at the idiocy displayed. Who gives a crap what you had for breakfast?
Lots of stuff ought to stay internal to you family also.

AMEN!!

Sorry Harry ...

The modern college kids have to be moronic. They know prospective
employers will check out their social media accounts. And posting beer
bongs, drug use, etc. makes for a limited employer pool.

Perhaps helping a woman in distress is a no-no in your part of the

how do we know you didn't just whack the kid- if that's even true? Maybe he was a anti-Union protester


Do you play a moron in real life, too?
.....

Are you qualified to give psychiatric evaluations?



"Moron" is not a term used these days by mental health professionals. If
you feel the need for a mental acuity examination, you probably don't
want a psychiatrist. If you just want to determine if Alzheimer's is
setting in, though, you could take the Self-Administered Gerocognitive
Exam, or SAGE, to see if you have the onset of cognitive and brain
dysfunction. It's available online.


There's only one reason you'd know that. To confirm what we've
known for a long time.



Wrong, ****-for-brains. I read a lot, and I have diverse interests, and
I have a bunch of bright friends with whom I discuss a variety of
issues. And, of course, I have a live-in expert on mental health issues.

Sorry Harry ...
