An Open Letter to Chuck Gould
 

Hey Chuck, how's it going? Are you enjoying the Nifty Nuthouse nuts and
cap? Got another question for you...What do you think of the following
statement? "We once had a regular poster identified as "Skipper" here; a
non-boater and a negatively oriented trouble seeker. Skipper seems to
have dropped out of sight completely..."

Got another question for you, Chucky, how would you respond to a rather
short chubby fellow sporting either a Greek fisherman's or Commodore's
cap who angles up to you and begs to be your exclusive boat broker in
the NW? How would you feel about that fellow if you gave him a positive
response to his request and he failed to check out the only two boats
you specifically asked him in investigate, a Skookum in Anacortes and a
Northcoast across the bay in Lake Union?

If this is a genuine "Skipper" post, then he suffered a stroke and as a
result his writing got really sloppy. Skipper was never a good writer, but
he was competent one, and his "style" was more formal than the example
posted above.

That's why I asked. Your background helps you to ID someone based on their
writing style. I'd need to see their teeth...or at least their radiographs.

I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some.

I'll be standing on the corner
On the corner of Twelfth Street and Vine
I'm gonna be standing on the corner
On the corner of Twelfth Street and Vine
With my Kansas City baby
And a bottle of Kansas City wine.

Well I might take a train
I might take a plane, but if I have to walk
I'm gonna get there just the same
I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some.

I'm gonna pack my clothes
Leave at the break of dawn
I'm gonna pack my clothes
Everybody will be sleeping
Nobody will know where I've gone
Cause if I stay in town
I know I'm gonna die.
Gotta find a friendly city
And that's the reason why,
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some.

Harry,
You see Smithers everywhere you look. You used to blame everything on the
people from rec.jetski. I am glad you have a new person to blame.

Yes...if this is the 'real skipper' and he can convince us he is, I'll

I'll be my little 'welcome back' present.

But to be honest with you, anyone who has been around could answer the
question, even though you tried to be sneaky. It is obvious from the post,
that even if it is not Skipper, which I believe it is, they would be able to

Why don't you just come out and blab the answer. I was hoping to play

Don,
The ISP and email address were the same as the old skipper. The Newsgroup
server was the same he used to use. The IP matches the ISP listed.

He listed info that only Chuck would know.

I doubt this is anyone but the real deal.

Naw.

Is Skipper back from the dead?

ROTFLMAO.

I don't know if there's more to this letter than the snippet found
here, but
This can't be Skipper.

First of all, this person describes somebody (me?) as being "rather
short and chubby". Now one would have to evaluate "short" and "chubby"
from some frame of reference, or so I would assume. At an average
height of just a whisker under 6-feet, there are people who will never
see the top of my bald head unless I'm sitting down and they're
standing up. Not to say that all members of the general population that
are shorter than I am are correspondingly lighter than I am. I'll leave
it at that.

Assuming the short and chubby fellow this imposter imagines is supposed
to be me (I often wear a greek fisherman's cap in the winter), there is
additional proof that the author cannot be Skipper. While I have met
Skipper in the past and shown him a couple of boats, I never "angled up
to him" (how the heck would I have even recognize him?) and "begged"
for anything. He called on me at my place of business, so any "angling
up" was done from his side of my desk after he sought me out.

If I recall correctly, from all those many years ago, Skipper only
contacted me to
check out these boats *after* he was already working deals through
other brokers on them. I think there was some conversation concerning
the advisability of picking an exclusive broker in the area rather than
asking 2-3 brokers to get involved in the potential sales end of every
boat that seemed mildly interesting from Wichita. Certainly there was
no "begging", (and the real Skipper would know that). Maybe he wanted
a freebie look-see and opinion, prior to hiring a surveyor?

Anyway, the real Skipper probably to this day wonders why I knew early
on he probably wasn't going to be a buyer. It was a small thing,
really. Had nothing to do with the fact that his wife always went
"shopping" while he was wandering up and down the docks looking at
boats. Had nothing to do with his lies about boating through localized
"torito" hurricanes down in Mexico, (in a 22-foot Bayliner lined with
portable gas cans). Had nothing to do with any of those things.

So, to the imposter posting the open letter trying to imply that he's
Skipper, here's a "what would you think" question back to you: What
would you think of a guy who rambled on and on about taking up
bluewater cruising in retirement, but who was married to a woman who
was *deathly afraid* of the water? Wouldn't it be memorable if a grown
woman were so terrified when she put a foot onto the deck of a 38-foot
boat (and it rocked ever so slightly under her weight) that she
recoiled in horror and almost fell down leaping back to the dock? Can't
imagine who that guy with the terrified wife might be, but maybe if the
Skipper imposter looks up the short, chubby guy with the fisherman's
hat he might ask if the guy and his disintersted, aquaphobic wife ever
bought a boat for offshore cruising in retirement.

Final evidence the imposter isn't Skipper: His open letter is dripping
with malice.
What sort of total a-hole would carry a grudge for all those years?
Skipper may be many things, and not all of them positive, but a total
a-hole wouldn't be on the list.

About this time I suggest you go and attempt something biologically
impossible.

I responded to your letter when I found it quoted by another poster.

Try accessing the group through Google, and you'll see there's a bunch
of posts missing for several hours this morning.

A man would apoligize for his implication, once proven wrong. Will you?

Still think it's not him? You might be right. Time will tell very

I'd think there is the distinct possibility based on your insults that
this impostor may be visiting you again. Google seems to be filled with
your insults to this "nonbearing fraud" since he left the group.

Skipper


Still more evidence this clever fraud isn't Skipper.
Skipper knew how to use Google.
If Skipper ran a Google search for all posts by Gould mentioning
Skipper into rec.boats for the last year and a half or so, and got this
message:

Searched all groups Results 1 - 10 of 14 from Jan 1, 2004 to Sep 19,
2005 for (skipper) group:rec.boats author:gould (0.22 seconds)

He would know that 14 mentions of the word "Skipper" in 21 months
hardly "fills" the NG.

The real Skipper would be bright enough to see that the majority of
those 14 mentions refer to some unkown person, such as "the skipper of
the vessel failed to check the depth of the water before crossing the
bar......", not to our departed participant with a similar name.

The real Skipper would be savvy enough to understand that when one
generates as much smoke as he used to do in this NG, some of the odor
and soot is bound to remain after he's gone.

I'll let anybody who agrees with this outlandish accusation that I have
filled the NG with insults directed at Skipper since his departure go
ahead and be impressed by the charge.

This current edition is a fraud, or else something really unfortunate
has happened to our old buddy's health. I'm hoping it's the fraud.

Well since Chuck let the cat out of the bag so to speak, and I promised
never to mention it, till now, I can attest to the veracity of Chucks
statement about Skipper's bride being deathly afraid of the water, and
just about going into convulsions climbing aboard the yacht he
mentioned.
Chuck, I and our wives had a few beers over this more than 3 years ago,
Still brings tears to my eyes, LOL.
Oh and Chuck may be balding, but he's neither short nor chubby.

Indeed, "smithering," or flooding a newsgroup with multiple fake IDs,
including those of other posters here, seems to be a disease inflicted
upon us by righties stuck in an adolescent manifestation of psychosexual
development.

There isn't a rightie in here I'd want to be, but it is obvious that

Hey Chuck, how's it going? Are you enjoying the Nifty Nuthouse nuts and

have dropped out of sight completely..."

Got another question for you, Chucky, how would you respond to a rather
short chubby fellow sporting either a Greek fisherman's or Commodore's
cap who angles up to you and begs to be your exclusive boat broker in
the NW? How would you feel about that fellow if you gave him a positive
response to his request and he failed to check out the only two boats
you specifically asked him in investigate, a Skookum in Anacortes and a
Northcoast across the bay in Lake Union?


Well done Skip & glad to hear from you again!!! Hope you stay around a
while although it's no better than it's ever been.

Krause is still lying as ever but hey you'd know that anyway.

Again good to see you.

Harry,
Your theory is full of holes.

For Harry:

Main Entry: nar·cis·sism



Considering that at least a dozen times some piece of right-wing trash
came up with a handle similar to or identical to mine here, I'd say the
evidence for my posit was overwhelming. Curiously, I've never wanted to be
any of them.

And it is well good to correspond with you once again, Karen. If you
find a forum without the obvious trash element let me know. These folks
can forward the message. As for now...I'm outa here.

Oh, BTW, Gould is as much a liar as Krause and much more devious...but
what would you expect from a used car salesman. I do owe him a visit
next time I'm in Seattle.

What the %^&^%$! First the 'maybe Skipper', and now Karen. There goes
the neighbourhood.

Smithers in Seattle. Hmmm, maybe a soon to be tear jerker movie?
