Do you go to charity events and suck up the freebies, without buying?


Hmm, let's recap. You think it's tacky for someone to not buy wine at
this charity event, but find that it's quite acceptable to only pay $18
for an $85 bottle of wine? Gee, aren't YOU the generous one! If I did
that I certainly wouldn't chastise other people for not being as
generous to the charity as you were.


Where did I say we were buying $85 a bottle wine. His wine, from the same
grapes goes for the $85, but different fementer and bottler. The bottles
are priced at $18 and they used to be $15. They have managed to supply a
scholarship every year for the last 8. One guy, with no money, got extra
and in a year in France, studied and to learn French took a full load at
both the American school and the French university. And still graduated a
year early. And how much have you sent your alumni association? The
association at which ever school you decide you graduated from.

Top posting to p.o. po kevin. We picked the grapes, played volleyball, and
later went fishing after all the non-related guests went away. You have
never been to a wine grape harvest I understand. It is not a black tie
affair. It is a casual dress, and you can even get in the bin and stomp
grapes with your feet. You need to get help for your anger.

Yes, I never said it wasn't tacky. Can't read well, can you? Do you
understand why it's tacky to go to a wine tasting, which is usually a
fairly classy gathering, and go fishing in the pond??

Do you also know that it's tacky to top post?

NOYB,
I don't think so, this guy comes out during the day, didn't Boo only come
out at night?

NOYB,
Yes, he might be talking to the other voices in his head, but they don't
seem to be helping.


That's because it's Charles Manson talking to Boo Radley.

Obviously, Boo is the one posting to rec.boats.

JimH,
Do you have a way to get the cursor to auto drop to the bottom of the

Kevin,
Sorry I was on the phone as I was typing. I use Outlook Express.


I thought there was a way to change the option in OE.

Hmmmmm - have to check that out.


I use Outlook Express and have never had a problem with bottom posting.

Bill,
I have to agree, Kevin reminds me of someone who has been abusing Steroids.
He either needs to get off the steroids or seek some serious anger
management problems.

No, I just scroll down to the bottom of the page and put it there.

Nice, change the story. Please, show where you said that above.

I thought you were against freeloaders.

And still graduated a
year early. And how much have you sent your alumni association?


A lot.

How much do you give to the Handyman College alumni?

I'm not Kevin, but you DO know that petty, childish name calling does
nothing for your credibility, don't you? Especially when hiding behind
a usenet handle!
Now, grow up.

I'm not Kevin. Ever notice how when you are caught in a lie, Bill, the
story just keeps getting grander, and grander.....NOW, you were at a
harvest, and the owner of the vineyard is a relative of yours? What
winery, vineyard? What makes you think that I'm angry, Bill? Trying to
put the blame on me, because you lie all the time?
