My granny always told me "It ain't bragging if you can do it."

I guess I better not mention to him what I am doing with MARS also, eh?

That is bragging too, right?


Look at the subject line of this post. This entire thread was started
by you doing nothing -but- bragging; i.e, "how Ham Radio has stepped
up to the plate", how it's "showing its stuff", etc. Maybe you've
forgotten the definition of the word "brag"..... let me refresh your
failing memory, Dan:

brag -- v. [OFr, 'braguer'], to boast. n. 1. a boast; boasting. 2. a
person or thing boasted of. 3. a braggart.

braggart -- n. an offensively boastful person.

And it's certainly offensive when there are still people suffering
while you are carrying on about how great ham radio is and how you get
a warm fuzzy when you pass a couple messages. That's like a little kid
at a funeral begging for attention by making faces and yelling, "Look
at me! Look at me!". How old are you anyway, Dan?

I'm old enough to know an ignorant SOB when I see one. YOU.


But apparently not old enough to address your personal issues and
refrain from grade-school rhetoric. I most certainly am an SOB, but
you write the book when it comes to ignorance. It's not your fault
that your parents didn't teach you how there is a time for bragging
and a time for condolence. But after being gone from the nest for how
long now..... 40 years?..... you should have learned such basic moral
principles on your own. Your -only- excuse is ignorance. Isn't it
about time you grew up?


I've been out of the nest since 1964. I was shooting gooks before you were
born. Which was the same year, right?


Maybe I should rephrase that: Isn't it about time you let your
emotional age catch up with your physical age?


Keep your left wing crap under you wet behind the ears.


Oh boy, now you spin political! I -love- arguing politics! So are you
a Bush supporter? or do you think there should be an amendment to the
Constitution that guarantees every citizen the right to vote?


I grew up just fine. What's your problem is the REAL question.


Aw, gee, and just as I was beginning to think that you were starting
to get a clue..... IT'S NOT ABOUT ME, DAN!!!
