**** you akc. g

the ng has been dumb'd down steve. its surprising no one jacks the
spammers here.
jay and jim upstate usually have something to contribute technically
but wisely bail when the crap starts flying.
frank is another but has a sh*t dont stink attitude.
could you tell me who are george, leland and doug. it seems without them
braying it is quite quiet here.




Well Jim I'll disagree a little. Frank's sh#t stinks
as much as anyone else, it's the arrogant attitude on I know
more than you, no matter what, IMHO.

maybe so shark but he does post relevant info concerning the hobby. you
have
to admit its better than the flames.


Look back at past posts I've made about Frank.
I've said a dozen or more times, that when Frank talks
about CB radio, I usually don't disagree, as with his
political views, again I usually don't disagree.
But when I have disagreed, it usually will end up with
him throwing out some sort of insult, instead of just
disagreeing.
Look at the posts that Dave & I had, were there insults
thrown out? No! Did we agree on most of what we talked
about? Yes! Did we disagree about some things? Yes!
But it did not end with insults being thrown at each other.
I saw his post in a response and this seemed pretty
poignant:

"But I really don't care because this isn't a popularity
contest, and I don't have any desire to socialize with semi-literate
rednecks who think life revolves around beer, CB radio, porno videos
and "professional" wrestling (and no, I don't mean everyone is like
that)."

What's your IQ Jim? I know what mine is and guess what?
It's a lot higher than Frank seems to think mine and I'm sure
a lot of others. Mopar is an owner of his own business with
multiple employees, I think he's got some smarts. I've talked
with you lot's of times, I wouldn't think of you as "redneck".
The truth is, he says he an EE, by what he's said here I
would believe it, but his broad statement above makes no sense
if he is as smart as he says.
He knows no more about my education any more than I his
or for that fact anyone's else's on this board, so my point is
that just because someone types something that either you don't
like or makes no sense to you, doesn't mean that they are a

"semi-literate rednecks who think life revolves around beer, CB radio, porno
videos and "professional" wrestling"

As he said:
"I don't think I'm such a bad guy -- I just take my RF seriously, my
discussions logically, my coffee black and my Tequila straight. If
that doesn't sit well with anyone else, that's their problem."

If that is true, I'd bet he would have a great time with I and Mopar
and a couple of others here.
I don't take my RF seriously, It's not my line of work. I do take
my work seriously, my coffee from his state sponsor (Starbucks),
my Tequila is Petron, but I usually drink beer, not hard liquor.
