Still John.. you made it a point to jump on me and didn't say a word to
Jackoff. If you want to play this little Sheriff game at least apply your
laws evenly. I realize American justice operates differently for the rich
vs the poor.. but lets pretend all the posters here are roughly equal for
arguments sake.
And for your information, I wasn't copying Harry... I posted my reply as I
read the posts in chronological order...that is, I replied before I read
Harry's similar post.




It is indeed unbelievable that Herring cannot see the difference between
insulting one's elderly mother and members insulting each other. Amazing.



It is one of the problems with insulting each other in the general. I
can't remember who, but someone used to insult Don on a regular basis
because he took care of his mother. It probably would be better if we
just gave up insulting each other all together. Somehow insults always
end up turning molehills into mountains.


Who could have done such a thing? Talk about crap behavior. I do think I
recall that. It continued for quite a while.

It was not right then and is not right now. But, as I stated earlier,
teasing another member is quite different than insulting ones elderly
mother.


Teasing? Like in 'friendly teasing'?

He doesn't *want* to see the difference or even that's it's an equal

Then he'd have to apply his laws equally.

Just curious; did you ever see the movie "Grumpy Old Men"? Do you see any
correlation with this NG? Other then there is no Ann Margaret, many of the
characters here seem similar.

Old Herring complains about this and that, including folks talking
about queers, yet he is the one (see his tag line above) stirring the
pot on that subject. I think he got ****ed when I teased him about the
nice fuzzy white woman's hat he wanted to buy during the Olympics and
when Tom teased him about his license plate (something like ILIKEMEN)

Herring has one set of standards........if you don't disagree with him
you are OK and get a free pass to go directly to Go, collecting $200.

If you disagree with him however, watch out as he comes after you on
his painted pony the minute you break *his* rules.

This is the same guy who could not accept a cease fire from me.

What an ass he is.

This is all quite funny. Don, you're saying that I come here just to
stir the pot, but over the past couple of days, you've made several
replies to my posts that were just to stir the pot yourself. Replies
to posts that had nothing to do with you, and said nothing about you
in any way. Yet you felt the need to jump in with your childish
insults.

It would be quite easy to count them up and show that you and a couple
of others on this NG, not me, are the most prolific pot stirrers here.

In any case, you'd find that if you did not insult me, I would not
insult you. Indeed, I think that taking care of one's mom in her
waning years is a noble and giving gesture. Surely you'll agree that
making childish insults on this NG is not in line with that.

So, you quit, and I'll quit. We'll draw the line here. It's totally
up to you. But understand that a shot over my bow, even if you're
just doing a follow-up for Harry, will negate it all. Your choice.

Jim, it's because of actions and words like yours above. A cease fire
to you, means that the other person should stop picking on poor
childish JimH, but you think you can keep calling people childish names
and issueing petty insults. You reap what you sow. You acted like a
total ass here for so long that no one wants a anything to do with you.

I don't expect any better from Jackoff or a couple others..they only

All I ask is that you do your duty in a fair and balanced manner... or
if that is impossible, take your law enforcement talents to another
territory..


This is all quite funny. Don, you're saying that I come here just to
stir the pot, but over the past couple of days, you've made several
replies to my posts that were just to stir the pot yourself. Replies
to posts that had nothing to do with you, and said nothing about you
in any way. Yet you felt the need to jump in with your childish
insults.

It would be quite easy to count them up and show that you and a couple
of others on this NG, not me, are the most prolific pot stirrers here.

In any case, you'd find that if you did not insult me, I would not
insult you.


Horse****, you do it on a regular basis. 90% if not more of your posts
are insulting someone.

Bringing someone's elderly mother into a fray is cowardice pure and
simple.

I could chase everyone around the NG, daring them to take a silly

over the line.

What a pathetic loser,saying stuff about someone's elderly mother.


Childish name-calling destroys the tiny bit of credibiliy you had
left, Kevin.

Speaking of obsession.. that's twice now that you've included my 91

old mother in your filthy fantasies.

I'm very suprised that our local sheriff hasn't come calling... as
he
seems to keep a close eye on me.


Don, when you make the type comments you've made (copying Harry),
do
you
not expect similar comments in return?

How does Jack's comment displlay any more obsession than yours?

Still John.. you made it a point to jump on me and didn't say a word
to
Jackoff. If you want to play this little Sheriff game at least apply
your
laws evenly. I realize American justice operates differently for the
rich
vs the poor.. but lets pretend all the posters here are roughly
equal
for
arguments sake.
And for your information, I wasn't copying Harry... I posted my
reply
as I
read the posts in chronological order...that is, I replied before I
read
Harry's similar post.



It is indeed unbelievable that Herring cannot see the difference
between
insulting one's elderly mother and members insulting each other.
Amazing.

Jim, you've made insulting remarks about MY mother many times....was
THAT okay? Careful, now, everyone remembers.


Care to show us that post Kevin?


When you stop calling me Kevin. Really, Jim, give us a couple of
answers. Why do you INSIST on acting like a spoiled little child? Why
don't you grow up (mentally) and start acting like a man? Why are you
so spineless that you can't even debate someone without petty insults,
and childish name calling?
Now, want to see who here REMEMBERS that exchange? Probably too old to
be archived, but if you don't remember, then you ARE bipolar.. Get help!


Hey Reggie, need more proof?


Here you go, Reggie!!!!

You are no longer in my killfile Kevin........I missed reading your

Did you figure out what 'MM' means yet? ;-)

Hmmm.. I get the feeling that entering a deal with you would be akin to
Israel entering an agreement with Hezbollah.
I will pledge that I will never degrade your mother ..or any other

Just curious; did you ever see the movie "Grumpy Old Men"? Do you see any

I think the characters in the movie were funnier.

I'll continue to hold my fire, as I realize that changing your stripes
may take a while. As I've repeatedly said, just say that you agree,
and it's over. Do you agree?


I thought I clearly stated my pledge.
Do you consider my statement above to be 'firing a shot across your
bow'? You may be too sensitive for this rough & tumble newsgroup.


Ahh.. I see. You pledge to not insult my family or my boat, but I'm
still on the table. Your intentions are clear. See ya.


I have to say, this a very cute thread. Sort of the Geneva Convention
of Newsgroup Insults, what is an acceptable targets of personal insults,
what is not an acceptable insults, "Ya Mama" jokes are off limits, "Jack
Off" jokes are on limits. What is even funnier is no is since no one's
mother who is being insulted probably ever reads reads rec.boats there
is a "no harm; no foul" clause that could be enforced into this Geneva
Convention. Once all parties agree what is acceptable insults we need
to have all parties have the agreement signed and notarized and
submitted to ........... ooooo wait who do we submit the Geneva
Convention agreement to?

Wouldn't it just be easier to agree not to insult each other than to
agree what is acceptable and what is not acceptable targets of insults?

If we had proper law enforcement for such accords we could put this to rest.
I don't trust those big belly Southern sheriffs to be unbiased.
Maybe we need a Mountie in here to bring back respect for law & order.

I'm a bit confused, Don. While you didn't agree to the cease-fire,
you seemed like you would be agreeable to it, as long as I was.

Now you're taking shots across my bow, and without me making a single
post.

How about mature self-restraint?
