Nope.

Sure you are.

I'm not responsible for other people's kids, but I donate to Toys for

A project of the United States Marine Corps Reserve...That's gotta
get you grinding your teeth a bit!

I think the Marines are a great bunch of people. I think that people
that try to catch a ride on "thier" coattails aren't.

Me to...That's why I am glad Frankie got court martialed.

You've not been paying attention...but then that's not new either.

So you do or you don't want the Morse Code exam kept as a licensing
requirement?

Make up your minds.

Mine's already made up.

I said it clearly before. I don't like the way things have gone,
but it IS a democratic society. I'd like to see some part of it stay
and have explained myn reasons why.

It's no mystery...Unless you've not been paying attention.

Notice to Len: Start playing nice with these guys when they start
playing nice with you.

Uhhhhhh.....

Brian....

Jim Miccolis has NEVER called the putz anything BUT "Len" or
"Leonard" or any other abbreviation of his name that Lennie didn't
himself use, yet Lennie's pelted him for YEARS with NUMEROUS
diminutives. You have too, yet I have NEVER seen Jim refer to YOU as
anything except "Brian", "Burke", or by your callsign.

We'll start with you. Once you've reformed, we'll work with Jim.

There's nothing to work with with Jim.

He's already establsihed a track record of NOT calling people by
diminutives.

He doesn't do it to Lennie...he doesn't do it to Mark or you.

So...What's YOUR excuse for doing it to him?

My duty as a friend to Len and good citizen of RRAP is now satisfied.

No...Your duty as a "good citizen" will be done when you
publically state, and then STICK TO IT, your intent to not initiate or
perpetuate the use of diminutives towards people who don't use them on
you.

I call you "Steve" at least 99% of the time.

And you mimick Lennie's diminutives. And Frankies.

I call Jim by his name
more than 99% of the time. I do slip up once in a while and refer to
him as Quitefine. I wonder why I do that?

Me too.

But I wonder WHY you call him "Rev Jim", "Jimmie", "Reverend Jim"
AT ALL, Brian.

He's never done anything similar to you that I am even remotelya
ware of....

Now what do you call me?

As of yesterday, I'll call you Brian until you slip back into some
other practice.

A year ago I called you "Brian"...I did slip a couple of times and
immediately apologized for it...

And Yes, Brian, I will do the same for you, effective with THIS
post...assuming you do and continue the same. Otherwise, it's right on
back to the mudslinging.

I don't beleive you. We've gone this route before. Yet I continue to
call you Steve and you continue with the diminuitives.

"believe"

Yes we HAVE gone this rout before...And when you started back in
on the diminutives and mistruths, I asked you point-blank if that's
what you wanted. You indicated you "could take anything you can hand
out"....

OK...We played your game.

Tired yet?

We'll see how long you last this time.

No...

We'll see how long YOU last, Brian.

Steve, K4YZ
