Two points primairly, 1) Yu and his colleague had signed forms saying they wouldn't be wearing life jackets, police said. So? What sort of guide/guide company lets people out on the ocean without them? Idiots. Apparently this one does, maybe a bad policy Maybe? MAYBE? You are willing to make all sorts of wild speculations about these two dead people, but you lack the balls to come out and say that guiding people on the ocean without PFD's is not a bad policy?!?!? First off, get your facts straight - There is only one dead person! Fine. You are willing to make all sorts of wild speculations about these two dead people, but you lack the balls to come out and say that guiding people on the ocean without PFD's is not a bad policy?!?!? Secondly, yeah I think it is a terrible policy to guide people on the ocean, without PFD's, not at you say, " not a bad policy". Which I will read between the lines of your blather, and understand that you think it is a bad policy, which I have no problem agreeing with you on. So! You said it is "maybe a bad policy" and now you agree that it is a bad policy. This is good. It is the first sensible thing I have seen from you in some time. Maybe ever! I would not choose to operate my guiding company under this policy, but apparently they did, but then it is not my business to tell them how to run their business. So you were uncomortable commenting on this policy, but had no problem speculating about the lives of the people in the accident. Fascinating! Being a Good liberal Er. What makes me a "liberal" ??!? I expect that you think that is what the government is for, To tell private business owners how to run their business! Um. Well. It is, I believe, a legitimate role of government to regulate business activities, and totally unregulated business activities would result in some rather nasty things happening. I am not aware that conservatives are in favour of removing all government regulation. So it is a matter of degree. I would be comfortable with a government regulation requiring all operators of ocean kayaking tours to have the wearing of PFDs as a mandatory activity. I don't think that makes me a "liberal" (not that there's anything wrong with that!). Do you? Why? but then the guidees are still responsible for their own decisions apart from the guide and company, no matter what the policy. People need to accept responsibility for their own decisions. What was the guide to do bash them over the head to make them put their PFD's on. I see. So if you were a guide, and two paddlers wanted to go out on the ocean with you but not wear PFD's, you wouldn't tell them "PFD's on, or forget it!" Man, you really are a first class idiot. I have been in a similar situation, as a scout commander! When certain individuals decided that they did not have to operate within certain protocols. As a result, they did not get to go on the group campout. That was my decision, and I would stand by it today. But at the time there were some really upset parents who wanted me out of the commander position immediately. So? You obviously did the right thing in that situation. Why are you being such an arse in discussing a similarly obvious scenario as this one? Go figure, I was doing something to protect their children, and they wanted to make my life - Hell! I finally decided that I did not need the headache, so the boys had no camping experience, stayed home with the parents! The parents then complained because the scout program was not meeting the needs of the boys, and it was my fault because I had quit. Makes complete sense to me, NOT! It's nothing unusual, although unfortunate for all concerned. But evidently the guide did not feel compeled to operate similarly. Is there complicity on the guides part for the death of the kayaker, possibly! Will the liability waiver stand up in court, I expect we will find out. I hope it doesn't. 2) Yu was a Master Sergeant with the 349th Air Mobility Wing based out of Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield So? Kman optimistic? no, but so naive.....or is it ignorance?.........! See below! Apparently the bad decisions started before they were even on the water, in not understanding the conditions they were going into, and also estimating their ability paddle or else swim in WW surf. Secondly, the issues of fratinizing is a sensitive issue that a Master Sergeant should have been aware of. Though as a Sergeant, he would have been within the Rules of Military Conduct, to spend R&R with other enlisted colleagues, he was pushing the borders because he was married to spend time with a colleague of the opposite sex, no matter what the actual relationship was. Are you in a time warp? What does that have to do with the price of tea in China? It has to do with your bizarre and archaic suggestion that a man and a woman cannot go paddling together. I did not say that a man and a woman cannot go paddling together, and at the same time maintain a wholly upright relationship. This couple may have been totally upright! But they also could have been totally distracted, which was the suggestion that this could have been a contributing factor in the bad decisions that led to a tradgedy. You have no evidence to support any of your speculations. You are smearing people just for the fun of it? No I am not in a time warp. I also know that it is best to avoid the appearance of compromise! Sounds very cowardly. I am not afraid to go paddling with a female. The military is as much concerned with the appearance, as the actual affair, and how it would reflect on the military. The military is typically more concerned with the appearance of things than right or wrong. Possibly so, but then they are the ones that made the Rules of Military Conduct, to which the Master Sergeant agreed to observe! Sort of like an employment contract which the Master Sergeant signed. He might not have liked it, but he never the less agreed to the contract! Did he break the contract? What are you talking about? And what does it have to do with their deaths? I don't know, you don't know, but I am certain that there will be an investigation, so it will be interesting to find out! The difference is, you are speculating about things when there is no evidence at all to support it. You are just smearing people for the fun of it, making light of a tragic situation for no reason other than your own amusement it would seem. BTW, are you currently helping in the search for the WMD? What does that have to do with the price of tea in China? It has to do with your strange concern for military appearances. I suppose the Canadian military never polishes their brass! Who gives a ****? He should have been concerned with how it appeared to the military, to his wife and others, even as we discuss it here on this NG, and especially how it affected his life decisions. Bull****. You are smearing with speculation - speculations that thus far don't even have a bearing on the fact that these people died while paddling. I would be smearing with speculation if I did as you desire, and developed some story line beyond the facts as stated. You have. I never went beyond the facts as stated! If there is any taint, it only points out the necessity to avoid the appearance of evil! Uh. No. The fact that some asshole like yourself is willing to label any unmarried man and woman who go paddling together as some sort of sexual deviants is not the problem of the two people, it is the problem of the Tinkernhootowl! The facts as stated, indicate that there was borderline fraternizing going on. What are the "facts" that indicate this? I haven't seen any such facts. If a man will not see the facts, he is the same as the blind man who cannot see at all! However it does not change the facts! What are the relevant facts? The appearance of fraternizing is enough to convict, though there was nothing actually occurring of a steamier nature. What the hell are you talking about? There's no law (military or otherwise) about going paddling. No, but there is about fraternizing! And there is no evidence whatsoever of "fraternizing." And if they had not been in the military, and out paddling, there is never the less the possibility of the distraction of opposites attracting, which still could have been an issue. It could also have been a UFO. What is the point of this speculation, other than to smear these people and make light of a tragedy? All I am suggesting is the possibility of contributing issues. If there had not been the possibility of these contributing issues, then you would have not responded to the enuendo. That you responded to the enuendo, proves that you understand that they may have been contributing issues! Ridiculous. I have suggested many times that you are an asshole. You responded. I guess that means you understand that you are an asshole! Apparently there were some bad decisions that were made, and if we can learn anything, it is the necessity to keep our heads clear and unencumbered when making life affecting decisions, such as whether we wear a PFD while kayaking in WW surf. What the christ is that supposed to mean? Can't you just spit it out, whatever it is you are trying to say? Are you saying this guy was boning this woman and therefore they decided not to wear life jackets? If so, I have to ask - is someone currently bashing your skull with a baseball bat? If not, what the hell are you trying to say? As stated above, we have no facts to indicate one way or the other, from any of the news articles! Right. Just as we have no facts to indicate one way or the other whether someone is bashing your skull while you write, which I might speculate is one of the only means of explaining your idiotic behaviour. Is that your professional diagnosis? No, I'm just following the facts! In the way that you define "facts." To draw any conclusionas you desire along those lines would be pure speculation. To draw conclusions regarding the appearance of what may have been going on is within the scope of the facts as presented! The facts as presented, appear to indicate that bad decisions were made regarding the days planned outing, and that those bad decisions may have been mitigated by the fraternizing! Utter bull****. There are no facts whatsoever to support this. as you say, "Bull ****!!" What are the facts to support it? I know better, I know I'll never get a straightforward, honest and well-intentioned answer out of you, so I just pop into the "conversation" occasionally, toss in my slander, and leave. -Richard, His Kanubic Travesty Now I don't know whether that is "straightforward, honest and well intentioned" enough for you, but it was for me. snip And as you ably pointed out earlier, that is all that really matters as far as I am concerned in the wooly wild west of the Usenet NG. Life is about each moment of breath, Living, about each breathless moment! Thanks, KnesisKnosis, aka Tinkerntom, aka TnT and now a friendlier, "RkyMtnHootOwl" 0v0 at 2 WW kayaks, '73 Folbot Super, pre '60 Klepper AEII 77 Hobie Cat 16 To email, use only one "hoot", and I'll get the message! Get well soon, Tinkernhootowl! I feel much better now, Thank you! OvO And yet, you are worse than ever. And now again I feel so much better!! Cleansed!!! Thank you for the opportunity to be clear headed, and unencumbered as I speak the truth! RkyMtnHootOwl OvO And yet, you are worse than ever. |

I was not uncomfortable commenting on the policy, it just was not my area of interest. I was primarily interested in knowing what may have affected the decision making ability of the two customers, who I believe are still ultimately responsible for their own welfare. Personally, I would never feel comfortable being in a situation where I had to depend on someone else for my welfare. That includes, but is not limited to airline transportation. When you get on a commercial airline, you are putting your life in their hands. The nature of air travel requires compliance on the part of passengers, so the airlines actually have authority to enforce their protocols. Anything short of the airlines though, may take some convincing for me to subject myself to the company policies. So to avoid a potential conflict, I find it easier to not subject my self to "guided" tours! Being a Good liberal Er. What makes me a "liberal" ??!? I haven't the foggiest idea why anyone would want to be a liberal! Beats me, someone with a gun pointed at your head! I give up! I expect that you think that is what the government is for, To tell private business owners how to run their business! Um. Well. It is, I believe, a legitimate role of government to regulate business activities, and totally unregulated business activities would result in some rather nasty things happening.

I don't think that makes me a "liberal" (not that there's anything wrong with that!). Do you? Why? As far as I know, whether you are "liberal or conservative," we all drown the same. So it would probably be a good idea for everyone to wear a PFD. Now I prefer to limit the regulatory load on business, and believe that most people should be able to determine the wisdom of certain actions where their life is at stake. There is a fine line between desirable and undesirable regulations. I do not like the idea of having a reg for every aspect of our life inorder to protect us from every little thing that can happen. That has been tried in the past, and before long, you have to have a reg protecting you from hurting yourself while lugging the reg book around! Having a reg that requires highway engineers to paint a white stripe down the middle of the highway, and then require drivers to stay on one side of the road or the other depending on which way they are traveling is probably a good idea. However requiring a person to wear a PFD may be more difficult. The Coasties have required that a PFD be available for each person, but there are plenty of times that I could go out in my Klepper, and not feel the need to have it on. So then we get into the witches brew of figuring out when a kayak is a kayak, and the reg book starts growing thicker. snip I have been in a similar situation, as a scout commander! When certain individuals decided that they did not have to operate within certain protocols. As a result, they did not get to go on the group campout.

Is there complicity on the guides part for the death of the kayaker, possibly! Will the liability waiver stand up in court, I expect we will find out. I hope it doesn't. snip You have no evidence to support any of your speculations. You are smearing people just for the fun of it? No, I was speculating as to what may have affected their judgement that resulted in such a tragic result. If they put themselves in a compromising situation as well, then we can learn that it is best to avoid the appearance of compromise as well personally, if we feel uncomfortable with the insinuation of a particular situation. However, this may or may not have been an issue in this circumstance! No I am not in a time warp. I also know that it is best to avoid the appearance of compromise! Sounds very cowardly. I am not afraid to go paddling with a female. Neither am I, in fact some of my favorite times are with my wife out paddling (Paddling the Kayak, not my wife, nor me!  However, neither am I in the military, though my wife was. She is the one who has informed me that this was a compromising situation that the Master Sergeant should have known to avoid. Apart from him dying, he could easily have lost rank, pay, etc. My wife is an upright moral person, but they were constantly warned and made aware of putting themselves in a compromising fraternizing position, if for no other reason, that it could affect their readiness status. It could also make them vulnerable to blackmail by hostile agents. I do not have any facts of the specifics of what training this group was involved in, but let us suppose he was dealing with arming nuclear weapons being put on a bomber at Travis Air Force base. Would you want him to have made himself vulnerable to dereliction of duty because he got involved in a compromising personal situation. Maybe he did programming, and was forced to enter a small back door in a program that allowed someone to access the program and steal millions of dollars worth of high priced government toilet seats. Who knows what is the limit of this type of activity. That is the problem with situations like this, it might seem to have been a disconnected accidental death, but then a lot of other issues come into play. It would just have been better to avoid the situation entirely. The Master Sergeant may have gone paddling by himself and drowned anyway, but at least the suggest scenario would be less likely! snip The difference is, you are speculating about things when there is no evidence at all to support it. You are just smearing people for the fun of it, making light of a tragic situation for no reason other than your own amusement it would seem. Well thanks to you it has not been fun, and very little amusement except what you have provided! snip I suppose the Canadian military never polishes their brass! Who gives a ****? Well evidently the generals who have all those boys shining their buttons. The closest I came to military service was ROTC during the Vietnam war. Personally all the button polishing did not do anything for me, but some got excited about it. I chose not to pursue a military career, which I have a hunch I would have struggled with being a joiner and going along with all the hoop-la!!! snip Uh. No. The fact that some asshole like yourself is willing to label any unmarried man and woman who go paddling together as some sort of sexual deviants is not the problem of the two people, it is the problem of the Tinkernhootowl! No, sex is wonderful, and certainly not deviant. I would even go so far as to say that sex between non married participants is extremely wonderful. The problem is not the sex, but prior commitments! The facts as stated, indicate that there was borderline fraternizing going on. What are the "facts" that indicate this? I haven't seen any such facts. If a man will not see the facts, he is the same as the blind man who cannot see at all! However it does not change the facts! What are the relevant facts? They were both in the military, The man was married! The appearance of fraternizing is enough to convict, though there was nothing actually occurring of a steamier nature. What the hell are you talking about? There's no law (military or otherwise) about going paddling. No, but there is about fraternizing! And there is no evidence whatsoever of "fraternizing." Fratenizing goes beyond sexual contact! Fraternizing can occur when two individuals of the same sex, but different rank would become friends in such a way that the lower ranked person would use the friendship to gain an advantage over other equally ranked individualsm and compromise the chain of command. The primary problem occurs when Officers are involved with enlisted individual. This could even occur when a couple are both in the military, and when they meet on base, they have to maintain complete separation of their personal lives, from their military responsiblity. In other words, no kissy face when they are on duty, even though they are married! Which I agree is another reason I would not fit to well in the military scheme of things, I like to kiss my wife whenever! snip It could also have been a UFO. What is the point of this speculation, other than to smear these people and make light of a tragedy? As far as I know, I have not heard anything about a UFO, so if you have some info along that line, I am sure the investigators would be interested in hearing from you! All I am suggesting is the possibility of contributing issues. If there had not been the possibility of these contributing issues, then you would have not responded to the enuendo. That you responded to the enuendo, proves that you understand that they may have been contributing issues! Ridiculous. I have suggested many times that you are an asshole. You responded. I guess that means you understand that you are an asshole! Let's see, you have called me and idiot, an asshole, stupid, and I am sure a few other descriptive terms. So how do I respond to such non contributory, articulate pronouncements? Oh, I know, FLUSH !!!! snip Right. Just as we have no facts to indicate one way or the other whether someone is bashing your skull while you write, which I might speculate is one of the only means of explaining your idiotic behaviour. Is that your professional diagnosis? No, I'm just following the facts! In the way that you define "facts." Good, at least I have you trying to deal with facts! That is one big step for mankind,....! snip What are the facts to support it? Ask, and answered many time here and before, do the research! snip And yet, you are worse than ever. And getting better all the time! Skippity do-dah!!! RkyMtnHootOwl OvO |

What the hell are you talking about? There's no law (military or otherwise) about going paddling. No, but there is about fraternizing! And there is no evidence whatsoever of "fraternizing." Fratenizing goes beyond sexual contact! Fraternizing can occur when two individuals of the same sex, but different rank would become friends in such a way that the lower ranked person would use the friendship to gain an advantage over other equally ranked individualsm and compromise the chain of command. The primary problem occurs when Officers are involved with enlisted individual. This could even occur when a couple are both in the military, and when they meet on base, they have to maintain complete separation of their personal lives, from their military responsiblity. In other words, no kissy face when they are on duty, even though they are married! Which I agree is another reason I would not fit to well in the military scheme of things, I like to kiss my wife whenever! Good grief. snip It could also have been a UFO. What is the point of this speculation, other than to smear these people and make light of a tragedy? As far as I know, I have not heard anything about a UFO, so if you have some info along that line, I am sure the investigators would be interested in hearing from you! You've just heard about it from me. There is as much evidence that there was a UFO involved as there was to support your smears. All I am suggesting is the possibility of contributing issues. If there had not been the possibility of these contributing issues, then you would have not responded to the enuendo. That you responded to the enuendo, proves that you understand that they may have been contributing issues! Ridiculous. I have suggested many times that you are an asshole. You responded. I guess that means you understand that you are an asshole! Let's see, you have called me and idiot, an asshole, stupid, and I am sure a few other descriptive terms. So how do I respond to such non contributory, articulate pronouncements? Oh, I know, FLUSH !!!! But according to you, since you responded to those comments, they are true! snip Right. Just as we have no facts to indicate one way or the other whether someone is bashing your skull while you write, which I might speculate is one of the only means of explaining your idiotic behaviour. Is that your professional diagnosis? No, I'm just following the facts! In the way that you define "facts." Good, at least I have you trying to deal with facts! That is one big step for mankind,....! You don't have any facts to support your smear campaign. snip What are the facts to support it? Ask, and answered many time here and before, do the research! I've done the research, and you haven't provided any facts to support your smears. snip And yet, you are worse than ever. And getting better all the time! Skippity do-dah!!! RkyMtnHootOwl OvO And yet, you are worse than ever. |

Someone ask "why?", and we set about in the discussion trying to acertain an answer. Some speculated more than others, but all was within the bounds of the discussion. If they put themselves in a compromising situation as well, then we can learn that it is best to avoid the appearance of compromise as well personally, if we feel uncomfortable with the insinuation of a particular situation. However, this may or may not have been an issue in this circumstance! Yes, you are speculating. There are no facts to support your statement. see above snip How would you feel about someone smearing you if your female companion died? Well now if she was my wife, it would be different than if she was any other female companion, that's for sure! But then if it happened now, it would be my wife, or my wife would be very close at hand. That way I would not have to worry about any potential conflict of interest or resulting smear campaign! How about you? However, neither am I in the military, though my wife was. She is the one who has informed me that this was a compromising situation that the Master Sergeant should have known to avoid. Apart from him dying, he could easily have lost rank, pay, etc. My wife is an upright moral person, but they were constantly warned and made aware of putting themselves in a compromising fraternizing position, if for no other reason, that it could affect their readiness status. What the hell are you talking about? Are you saying it is a fact that the two individuals actually did anything wrong? No, we have no facts to indicate they were involve in any illicit behavior of a sexual nature, if I understand your question. They may have been long term friends, of whom the wife was very aware, and the young woman was like a daughter. However, it could still be considered fraternizing because of the appearance of possible impropriety. My wife was a cute young thing at 22 in the Army, serving under a Chief Master Sergeant, who had served with my wife's dad 30 years earlier. They were good friends, before my wife went into the service. However, the Chief was very diligent to do nothing to compromise my wifes reputation, if anything, he was harder on her than anyone else. And they never went out to dinner, or any other such activity either. It is all a matter of appearances, which the military takes very seriously! It could also make them vulnerable to blackmail by hostile agents. I do not have any facts of the specifics of what training this group was involved in, but let us suppose he was dealing with arming nuclear weapons being put on a bomber at Travis Air Force base. Would you want him to have made himself vulnerable to dereliction of duty because he got involved in a compromising personal situation. What evidence is that that he was in a compromising personal situation? He was in a compromising situation as soon as he was alone with her, and though there may not have had anything going on between them, it put them in jeopardy! Maybe he did programming, and was forced to enter a small back door in a program that allowed someone to access the program and steal millions of dollars worth of high priced government toilet seats. Who knows what is the limit of this type of activity. That is the problem with situations like this, it might seem to have been a disconnected accidental death, but then a lot of other issues come into play. It would just have been better to avoid the situation entirely. The Master Sergeant may have gone paddling by himself and drowned anyway, but at least the suggest scenario would be less likely! You are speculating. There are no facts to support your statement. Definitely, but that is the nature of speculation. You get up in the morning, and not knowing exactly what is going to happen to you, you go out to face the day. That is speculation that you will make it through the day, and back to the safety of your bed! Of course that is speculation that your bed is a safe place as well. Take the people who went through the earthquake in Afganistan. They might not be so inclined to think their bed is a safe place. They have had the walls fall down on their head. Their data base of facts, leads them to speculate that the earth is not as safe a place to lay their head, as they thought prior to the earthquake. Obviously we don't have all the facts regarding this current situation, so we speculate as to what may have affected their decision making ability. If more facts come to light, we can change our speculation, no problem. snip Well thanks to you it has not been fun, and very little amusement except what you have provided! If you had not been such an assclown - and simply explained your comments - your humiliation would have been over long ago. Clowns know no humilation, we just paint on a bigger silly ass grin! I suppose the Canadian military never polishes their brass! Who gives a ****? Well evidently the generals who have all those boys shining their buttons. The closest I came to military service was ROTC during the Vietnam war. Personally all the button polishing did not do anything for me, but some got excited about it. I chose not to pursue a military career, which I have a hunch I would have struggled with being a joiner and going along with all the hoop-la!!! Who gives a ****? Typical liberal, hates the military! hates what is important to the military, you know like spit and polish, and blowing up things! Not only hates, but beyond their comprehension! snip The problem is not the sex, but prior commitments! Do you have evidence that the two individuals had sex? None about sex, yes about prior commitments! snip What are the relevant facts? They were both in the military, The man was married! Which proves what?!?!?!? The bit about prior commitments. snip I like to kiss my wife whenever! Good grief. No that would be if I had to kiss your wife!!! snip As far as I know, I have not heard anything about a UFO, so if you have some info along that line, I am sure the investigators would be interested in hearing from you! You've just heard about it from me. There is as much evidence that there was a UFO involved as there was to support your smears. Be sure and call your Congressman!

In that case, you are doing something wrong, Tinkernhootowl, because I am speculating that your smear of these two people is improper! snip The fact that the military takes certain things seriously (generally unimportant things, whereas big things - like invading other countries and blowing people up - are taken lightly) really has nothing to do with your smear campaign. The military isn't smearing these people - you are! Wrong, but this is obviously where our opinions differ! If I am wrong, please be specific. I said the military is not smearing these people. If they are, please point me to the evidence. snip He was in a compromising situation as soon as he was alone with her They were with a guide, as I recall. People run naked in a sports areana, with 80,000 fans and TV audience watching. Doesn't stop them from doing stupid things. I doubt that one guide really mattered to them if they were distracted with other interest! You have no evidence to indicate that other interest (whatever that means) was a factor. And are you saying that no male who is in the military can be alone with a female who is in the military? Not if one is an officer and other enlisted, and/or one or both are married, but not to each other. Then these are grounds to be very careful about any appearance of impropriety! Please point me to the relevant regulations where this is stated. If you are saying that, please point us to the relevant policy document. Uniform Rules of Military Conduct, I believe is what it is called. Please quote the relevant section. and though there may not have had anything going on between them, it put them in jeopardy! Only in the sense that a scum like yourself might choose to smear them. There is lots of scum in the world, that is why it is important not to give them any cause to make any slanderous comments based on nothing more than the appearance of impropriety. Those who want to smear will always be able to do so, since the possibility of the appearance of impropriety is entirely subjective, since it is not necessary to prove anything to make the smear. snip Wrong, but this is obviously where our opinions differ! Moving On!!! snip To choose to speculate that they were doing something wrong (other than not wearing PFDs) is a rather scummy thing to do. Granted, it is a scummy thing to do, but it happens all the time in the world in which we live Only when scum like you do it. hence the importance of not putting yourself in a compromising situation. Why would you live your life in fear of scum? I'm not sure why you feel compelled to do so, or to think it appropriate or even relevant. I believe you mentioned that you yourself sometimes go out on the water without a PFD. Does that mean you must be having sex with young boys or something!?!? In this day and age, I do not believe it is very smart for a man to be with children by himself. With the rash of older women, young boy assaults occurring, it is becoming equally advisable that women be very careful as well. False accusations can be easily lodged, so the easiest thing is to avoid possible conflicts of interest. Getting back to what I said, please try again: I'm not sure why you feel compelled to do so, or to think it appropriate or even relevant. I believe you mentioned that you yourself sometimes go out on the water without a PFD. Does that mean you must be having sex with young boys or something!?!? snip Clowns know no humilation, we just paint on a bigger silly ass grin! OK, so your whining about wanting serious conversation was just more of your assclown act then? This is fine. You are just here to clown around, and have no interest in serious discussion. It all makes sense now. I didn't think it was possible for someone to be so idiotic as a matter of everyday practice. If you must whine, keep it to yourself! Good self-talk, Tinkernhootowl! snip Typical liberal, hates the military! hates what is important to the military, you know like spit and polish, and blowing up things! Not only hates, but beyond their comprehension! Um. Where is the hatred of the military? My comment is there to indicate that I see no relevance in that windbag paragraph to what is being discussed. Like I said, beyond their comprehension! Beyond YOUR comprehension. snip I like to kiss my wife whenever! Good grief. No that would be if I had to kiss your wife!!! She would, I am quite certain, bash your skull. She suffers assclown fools like you much less gladly than I. Like I said, that would be good grief! snip Be sure and call your Congressman! Wait, you're a Canadian, you don't have a Congressman to call, sorry about that! I guess you could call your PM, whoever that is this week! I see you are as uninformed about politics as you are about everything else. Prime Minister is to President as Member of Paliament is to Congressman. Welcome to international politics! Right, or is it Left! I guess you could have your PM call one of our Congressmen! By the way, who is your PM this week? Same one as last week. snip How interesting that an asshole like yourself has a toilet obsession. and, How interesting that you have an obsession with assholes! Well, I'm talking to one, that is true. snip Crack addicts dying on the streets of Amercia often have a smile on their face. You seem addicted to being an asshole, maybe there's a similar affect. And Liberals freezing to death on the streets of Canaada Liberals (you do not that Liberal and liberal are different thigs, right) seldom freeze, they tend to have well-lined pockets. often have smile on their face, as long as they have their "Popcorn and Beer"! Uhoh, Tinkernhootowl is getting involved in yet another issue where he doesn't have a clue. |
