I don't think anybody will have heartburn over an offer of free tickets
to a boating movie.

Somebody is supposed to be making money when there's SPAM involved,
right?

The bogus doctor quacked:

Would this qualify as a pig pile?

*******************************************

Hard to say. I only e-hummed a few bars of "me and my shadow".
Unless you know of somebody who would could be described as my shadow,
how could that be insulting? Besides, I can't see where any comments
were made about my shadow, pro or con, only that it followed me around.
Doesn't your shadow do the same? I don't think any names were named, so
do you think that shoe actually fits somebody? That would be
surprising, indeed! If so, who would that be?

I think Don referred to somebody as the Cleveland Crusader, but who
would that be? The only NG poster that I know of who is living in Ohio
for certain is my close friend JimH, and he lives
in Avon Lake, Ohio- not Cleveland. Whom do you suppose Don had in mind?

Harry did warn me that my special friend Karen of OZ was likely to
weigh in with a negative remark or two because the name of the company
giving away the free tickets was included in the email I reposted. If
you check the thread, I believe you'll see that I told Harry that Karen
shouldn't have a problem with something being given away absolutely
free and with no strings attached...it's pretty hard to call that SPAM.
I sort of defended her against Harry's remark- but I expect no
particular thanks and that's a fact.

So no, Doc. That's not a pig pile. A pig pile has to have a victim,
does it not? No victim was named, no insults were posted (at least not
by me), and if your imagination leads you to conclude that a specific
person was at the bottom of the pile, you might want to ask yourself
why you would draw such a conclusion. Whose behavior would be so
singularly unique that you would just "assume" any negative comments
must be directed at that person? Whose behavior would be so destructive
that you would just "assume" the mere mention of a person's name or
general description of the person's behavior would have to be an
insult?

I'll be waiting to hear just who you think fits the general description
of my shadow, why you think that person would qualify, and why you
believe that being called a shadow is insulting. Should prove
interesting. At least then we'll have a clear idea of the identity of
the party upon whom you feel we pig piled. :-)

Just wanting a copy on my system & after all gormless Gould is the
biggest spammer of rec.boats since... well since gormless Gould:-)


K


Krause's lie of the day is a bit of a double header sorry, but so
many lies so little time:-)

Whenever his total lack of any real boating knowledge looks like
uncovering him as the sad little liar he is, he posts some crazy list of
boats he claims are his base, here are just a few of his claims, he has
tried to sustain these lies & as each one is shown to be a fabrication
he just invents a new one, the latest is the "Parker".

Don't feel conned nor stupid if you've been taken in by him, he
make exactly the same lies up in the jet ski NGs when he used to pollute
them with his crap, can you believe it he claimed to be a jet skier!!!!!
(responsible & caring in the socialist way of course:-))

This idiot has never owned a boat & never will he is totally devoid
of any boating experience nor knowledge, other than what he picks up in
this NG & the occasional paid charter fishing trip.



Here are some:



Hatteras 43' sportfish
Swan 41' racing/cruising sloop
Morgan 33
O'Day 30
Cruisers, Inc., Mackinac 22
Century Coronado
Bill Luders 16, as sweet a sailboat as ever caught a breeze.
Century 19' wood lapstrake with side wheel steering
Cruisers, Inc. 18' and 16' wood lapstrakes
Wolverines. Molded plywood. Gorgeous. Several. 14,15,17 footers
with various
Evinrudes
Lighting class sailboat
Botved Coronet with twin 50 hp Evinrudes. Interesting boat.
Aristocraft (a piece of junk...13', fast, held together with spit)
Alcort Sunfish
Ancarrow Marine Aquiflyer. 22' footer with two Caddy Crusaders.
Guaranteed 60 mph. In the late 1950's.
Skimmar brand skiff
Arkansas Traveler fiberglass bowrider (I think it was a bowrider)
Dyer Dhow
Su-Mark round bilge runabout, fiberglass
Penn Yan runabouts. Wood.
Old Town wood and canvas canoe
Old Town sailing canoe...different than above canoe




I own the following boats:


a 36' "lobster" style boat
a 19' center console fishing boat
an 11' inflatable dinghy
1/2 of a canoe


Those are the types of boats I currently own. I'm also in the market for
some interesting kind of lightweight flatbottomed skiff, similar to the
old Skimmar, for the "new" 51-year-old 10 hp outboard I recently bought.


One of the boats is kept on dry land within a half mile of Chesapeake
Bay. One is kept at a private covered boat dock in a little creek off
Chesapeake Bay. One is kept in the backyard of a friend who lives much
closer to the Shenandoah River than I do. And one is kept next to the
36-footer."

I bet this movie is going to...well, bomb.

Want to know why?

Pale yellow lighting and filters.

When a movie has to do the dull yellow "natural" lighting it's because
they didn't have a budget and couldn't afford decent lighting.

Also, the cute kid - the cute kid is a dead give away. Along with
Bruce Dern.

I predict straight to video. )

When Harry kept the Parker at Harbor Cove Marina (private) in a little creek
(Rockhold Creek through Deale, MD), which is off the Chesapeake Bay, it was
*not* in a covered dock. The marina has a boatel, in which I keep the PocoLoco,

Ahh, yes, a "trailer parking lot," which, of course was "dry land" "off
Chesapeake Bay." Actually, that boat moved closer to the water when the
marina began storing it on an outdoor rack close to the forklift
launchers. I recall Herring whining about that, too. But, then, he's
"obsessed with Harry." I'm not sure where I'll keep this boat this
season. It is for sale.

The "private covered boat dock" we used was in Chesapeake Beach, which I
mentioned several times. But that boat has been relocated to a Solomons
Island marina, along with its rubber dinghy.

My half of the canoe, along with the other half, is at the Shenandoah,
in Rileyville, Virginia.

Herring lives in Alexandria, Virginia, on ________________________.
Well, that wouldn't be the right thing to do, would it.



Well, let's see. Anyone who can use 'AnyWho' could easily determine it's on
either Stewart Ave or Mayfair Ln.

Unlike you, I have no reason to be paranoid. I've not called enough names, or
made enough insults to have reason to fear the people in the newsgroup.

It's a shame you're who you are, Harry. I might, otherwise, be interested in
your boat.

My special friend from Avon Lake, the man I can count on to "watch my
back" at all times,
remarked:

Those rules only apply to one person here. And those rules are
constantly
evolving depending on the circumstances.

We of course are held to a different set of rules


*********************
I don't make rules.

Who is "we"?

Are you self identifying as part of some group?
What group would that be?
Are the other members of the group pleased to be associated with you,
or are you merely assuming that they assent to inclusion?

Here's a free lesson in style and technique for you. Not that you would
ever consider posting an insult, of course, but if you were so inclined
there are more effective and less effective ways to go about it.

People who lack imagination and just don't do nuance at all, will post
"So and so is a such and such!" Fine, but you can hear the same on any
grade school playground in the country and most actual adults will
grant the tirade about an equal amount of credibility.

A more subtle, and probably more effective approach would be to
describe behavior, without naming names, and allow people to draw
personal conclusions about whether the description fits anyone they
know. If the reader associates a description of behavior with a
specific individual, there must be some reason for that association (at
least in the reader's mind). If the description of behavior is
inaccurate and without merit, then nobody will associate any particular
individual with the description and there hasn't been any insult.

For example: If you posted, "Gould is 11-feet tall, has green hair,
bathes once a year whether he needs to or not, cheats on his wife,
kills and eats the neighborhood dogs, and is plotting with Al Qaida to
overthrow the Bush Administration......" that would be a direct insult.
However, if you posted, "One of the posters to this group is 11-feet
tall, has green hair, bathes once a year whether he needs to or not,
cheats on his wife, kills and eats the neighborhood dogs, and is
plotting with Al Qaida to overthrow the Bush Administration......"
without naming any names, there is no direct insult. In fact, if my
*own behavior* had in no way already confirmed your charges, nobody
would have the slightest idea who you might be talking about.

Here's where it gets to be pretty funny, as well. After posting
something (for example) about the childish or destructive behavior of
an individual or group but without specficially naming anybody, the
denials and countercharges begin rolling in. IOW, the very people you
avoid identifying so often jump up and identify themselves.

As I said, no charge for the lesson. Why would I charge you for
something you will never use?
Just yesterday you posted that you carry on discussions without
resorting to personal insult, and why would I be inclined to brand you
a liar? Should you ever resort to insult, either as an aggressor or
defender in a discussion, consider taking a more subtle approach. It
stings your victim far worse than a mere "nonny nonny poo poo", if
that's what you have in mind to accomplish.

When Harry kept the Parker at Harbor Cove Marina (private) in a little
creek
(Rockhold Creek through Deale, MD), which is off the Chesapeake Bay, it
was
*not* in a covered dock. The marina has a boatel, in which I keep the
PocoLoco,
but Harry kept his in the trailer parking lot.



Ahh, yes, a "trailer parking lot," which, of course was "dry land" "off
Chesapeake Bay." Actually, that boat moved closer to the water when the
marina began storing it on an outdoor rack close to the forklift
launchers. I recall Herring whining about that, too. But, then, he's
"obsessed with Harry." I'm not sure where I'll keep this boat this
season. It is for sale.

The "private covered boat dock" we used was in Chesapeake Beach, which I
mentioned several times. But that boat has been relocated to a Solomons
Island marina, along with its rubber dinghy.

My half of the canoe, along with the other half, is at the Shenandoah,
in Rileyville, Virginia.

Herring lives in Alexandria, Virginia, on ________________________.
Well, that wouldn't be the right thing to do, would it.



Well, let's see. Anyone who can use 'AnyWho' could easily determine it's
on
either Stewart Ave or Mayfair Ln.

Unlike you, I have no reason to be paranoid. I've not called enough names,
or
made enough insults to have reason to fear the people in the newsgroup.

It's a shame you're who you are, Harry. I might, otherwise, be interested
in
your boat.

I guess then he is at one of the 12 marinas on Solomon Island. Here is the
website that links to those marinas with phone numbers.

His boat is not in Solomon's Island. His boat is at Breezy Point, on a trailer,
where it's been sitting in the sun and dirt for a long time.

He must be implying that the lobsta boat is at Solomons. Of course, that would
imply that he really owned the lobsta boat.

Gould,
What makes you think he was talking about you? He did not mention any
names. You must be very guilty if you think his comment was directed
towards you.

Who is "we"?

Are you self identifying as part of some group?
What group would that be?
Are the other members of the group pleased to be associated with you,
or are you merely assuming that they assent to inclusion?

Here's a free lesson in style and technique for you. Not that you would
ever consider posting an insult, of course, but if you were so inclined
there are more effective and less effective ways to go about it.

People who lack imagination and just don't do nuance at all, will post
"So and so is a such and such!" Fine, but you can hear the same on any

individual with the description and there hasn't been any insult.

bathes once a year whether he needs to or not, cheats on his wife,
kills and eats the neighborhood dogs, and is plotting with Al Qaida to
overthrow the Bush Administration......" that would be a direct insult.

1. You said, "Thanks for clarifying the rules."
2. JimH responded that the rules I clarified only applied to a single

Other than that, nice try fellas. Maybe you will learn something from

Yes, but no where did he say they applied to you. You must feel that you do
apply a double standard in your life.
