Tsk, tsk. You want a meeting with charts and graphs and an
experienced presenter to show you examples of the infamous
Double Standard?!?!?
hmm, maybe. *Your answer* is what needs explaining. If I don't care
about your mode, nor Steve's mode of expression, and you two are on
opposite sides of the discussion, I need an explanation of why that
means that I have a double standard.
Tsk. Still need an "explanation?"
Not a good reply, Coslo.
Nor a good explanation.
Lennie doesn't HAVE a "Double Standard" that he can use as an example,
Mike. That's why he dodged answering your post.
Nope, I took the summer off to rest a torn meniscus. Takes longer to
heal as time marches on.
Who filled in under your name in here "all summer?"
What are you talking about?
You'll have to forgive Lennie...If you posted even once in that time
period, he assumes that you anxiously devoured each and ever word he wrote
as
if there were no other nourishment to be had.
Or you may be smoking some "good stuff" that Bob Casey said I
was... :-)
nahh. nothing stronger than the occasional beer for me.
3.2 stuff? :-)
You smoke beer? How is that done? :-)
So. you deliberately misunderstand me to serve as the content of your
replies? noted! 8^)
Of course. "The Dodge" (not the automobile). A typical Lenniesque
diversion from having to acknowledge a comment which might embarrass him.
Tsk. You should get a subscription to Psychology Today and
fill yourself in on what "relationships" are.
It is okay. This happens all over Netnews. Don't let it bother you too
much.
This is where Lennie gets most of his "education"...Periodicals that
his
wife subscribed to...Of course he'd have everyone here believe that it was
HIS
education that carried the day.
Here's the question Steve. I think I know the answer already, but let's
check it out.
As long as Lenover21 continues to post in his present style, I assume
that you are happy to post in retort to him. Yes?
If you'll take careful notice, Mike, with rare exception over the last few
months, I rare reply directly to anything he says. Most of it (like the last
couple with you here) have been as a result of someone else's posts echoing
him.
I'm pretty convinced that even though there are times you find him
exasperating, it doesn't upset you to make the posts?
What would upset me even more is letting a bully go unchallenged.
Amateur Radio is something that has enrichened my life and has been a
Godsend on more than one occassion.
To allow a creep like Anderscum to trash it unabated would be unthinkable.
ESPECIALLY when he is so blatantly wrong on so many occassions.
I also believe that for good or bad, you enjoy it to a certain extent.
Only that it lends some balance to his mistruthfulness and deceit.
So you guys have a relationship. It's a pretty strange one, made easier
by Netnews, but this sort of thing has existed for a long time. It's the
old Winston Churchhill/Lady Astor thing. They traded barbs with each
other, and I have to believe they enjoyed it.
Why Lenover21 resists my suggestions that this is what is going on is
beyond me. It is no insult, its just how things go sometimes.
He resists a lot. Common sense. Civility. Friendship. He'd rather you
slap him around a bit than shake his hand.
Lennie loves to berate othrs for "assuming", "rank and priviledge",
and
swears he does NOT berate others for thier services regardless.
I do not have now, and I never did have any military rank. That needs
to be clear. But there are more ways than that of serving your country.
Absolutely.
Lennie did one active duty tour in the Army. Good for him.
But I know people who have made far greater contributions to the United
States who never left thier home state than Lennie ever hoped to "passing 1.2
million messages at ADA in 1953".
That's what get's his goat. The really sad thing is that Lennie COULD be
in that same boat...but just hasn't got the guts to be anything other than what
he is now...bitter and angry.
