Squeak 17 #1 July 6, 2011 Our lack of community in western culture has come to this. This is not an Oz isolated case, just the latest one.

I'm considering building a little overpass over it so the coyotes and foxes can also enjoy the yard.

popsjumper 2 #11 July 6, 2011 Quote He was probably the one that 'Grassed you up' and had the letter sent So, plant them in HIS garden ... just sprinkle a few seeds My father was big on gardening and kept his plants of all types well groomed and such. During the hippie days, I put in a couple of seeds and when they sprouted he, having no clue what it was other than it was green, babied those suckers right along with the rest of the garden. Years later, when I told him about it, he remembered that those nice, bushy 6ft tall plants all of a sudden disappeared from his garden. My reality and yours are quite different.

Oh, sorry - I thought you were implying that it was he who blew you into the cops; thus the nastygram. OK, disregard, then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krip 2 #23 July 7, 2011 Quote Take that shit to SC, please, both of you. Hi Mr Bill Thank you for swift action everyones digging this stuff from all over the world and imo theres a simple explanation. What I couldn't understand is how two or more mature adults that have been on the same websight for ever. Understand the rules and Can't resist takeing cheap shot's at ea other and Mr Bill has waste to waste his time to play babysitter for mature educated adults Now thats a sad indictmentI could care less about politic's and a persons profession. What happen in SC should stay in SC or better yet just do it in the privacy of a PM. With out a audience. I can't figure out how to spell check but when I get PM's from the same person about the SOS I got motivated real quick and learned how to block them. Theres a simple explanation for it. I visited a woodworking websight that wasn't as as DZ.com They just called their special forum for people that have issues "the basement". I can usually catch myself 70% of the time before I take a cheap shot at some folks on this websight that just rub us the wrong way. It's real simple really even for a old fart that can't spell. Before someone says something about the 70% number thats a low ball guestimate FWIW After the shocking downturn in the world economy I watched a interview with Alan Greenspan (Google is your friend) admitted that he had made some errors but was proud of the fact that he was correct 70% of the timeI don't have any unrealistic expectations about what to expect from "yutes" or adults. After the house guest from hell This situation is just another reminder how easy people that are educated mature adults resort to the lowest commen denomator. Like the poor uneducated folks that some of smart folks feel superior to. Today i posed the same question to a professional. And got a very simple answer. It has a special medical term and the insurance companies and the medical professionls won't even attempt to treat them. It's that badSo the next time you can't control your urge to take a cheap shot to the same person again and again , and resort to cheap tricks. Bicker back and fourth and hide your lack of self control in SC. I know the people to ignore on DZ.com and some how we've worked it out. I ignore them and they ignor me , myself and I . I'm not going to waste my time trying to explain it even for free or even a "donation". Now lets break out a big ass bag of popcorn Thats for the folks that have nothing better to do than watch the same reruns aka SOS every night. It is what it is It's not sad or happy its just a fact of life. But I do feel sorry for Mr Von even though he banned me more than once.One Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
