Don,
Harry is not comfortable with himself, and he finds it necessary to make up
elaborate lies to boost his weak ego. He is harmless, even when he tries to
be a tough guy.

I would recommend you do not give him your email address or any personal
information. He likes to publish personal information when he responds to
someone he does not like (i.e. JimH home address)

Those are pretty strong words directed towards Harry, But for all I know
they may be accurate. I have sent him nice notes on several occasions
inquiring at to the source of his "News" reporting, His vocational
background, etc. Is this just a place where he "plays" new reporter and
an
out let for his emotions? I have never observed anyone like him. Does
anyone know his background, is source of information, etc? No two ways
about it... He is just not "right" !

Don Dando

In my experience, Harry is best ignored. Do not give him your email
address.

"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."

I've responded to you more than once, Don. As for Tuuk, he's on the far
side of psychosis, and has convinced himself that his tales about me are
true.

I also re-read my post, and thought I should bwe more clear, so:

Just for your interest, because you seem so persistently curious:

1. I haven't held a job covered by a union contract for more than 35 years.

It was a Union shop, and I was in the union, we just never had a
contract.

2. I still have teeth.

Two of them. The reast are partials and dentures.

3. My children are adults.

Whom I never see.

4. I've been married twice, and am still married.

I dont count the first three, becuase they were anulled.

5. My father was a sole proprietor, and had no partners.

When I say "no partners", that does not include any gay lover he may
have had.

6. My second (and current) wife is about 20 years younger than I am.

She is also 200 lbs heavier than I too.

7. I take two showers a day, every day.

And I still cant get the stink off.

Gotta go. Taking the wife out in the dingy. Have to go get some extra
air put it n it.

From a RNC memo

From: "Ken Mehlman, RNC Chairman"

Bunch of BS snipped

First, more people have come to understand the structural problems
facing Social Security's solvency over the last two months, and thus,
the issue has become more important to them. The latest Gallup poll
shows that Americans think Social Security is now the most important
domestic issue. At 12%, Social Security has increased by 8% since
January and is a greater concern than the economy (10%), health care
(9%), or terrorism (9%).

more BS snipped

Second, more Americans agree that Social Security needs strengthening.
According to the recent ABC News/Washington Post poll, 72% of Americans
think the Social Security system is headed down the road to a crisis or
will require major changes in order to head of a crisis. Even seniors
believe that changes are necessary to Social Security: a recent Ayres
McHenry poll found 66% of Americans over age 55 believe that Social
Security needs changes. A recent Gallup poll even found a majority of
Americans (51%) believe that it is necessary for Congress to pass
legislation to make changes to Social Security this year.

I love his new tactic. Cut out the parts he doesn't like, replace with
words of
his choosing. I guess anything disagreeable is 'bs'.

The whole memo is posted. Note what was snipped.

"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."

Actually it is against copyright laws to post the entire article if it is,
as most are, copyrighted. The proper procedure in that case is to post
the
most relevant sections and the link to the complete story.


I doubt if the memo was copyrighted. My point was that Jimcomma snipped
the most
pertinent parts of the memo to help bolster a ridiculous position.

Sorry John, I did not mean to come across as not understanding your point.
I understand it perfectly and am glad you brought it up. I was just talking
about copyright laws that a few posters here continue to break by posting
copyrighted articles in their entirety.


John -- I posted EVERYTHING I got as you requested -- what do you say to
that?
