    Cliff,

    I could not care less... Stay... Leave... whatever...

    I only ask that you quit announcing it each time you do...
    More later,
    Tour...

    Why is it that people feel compelled to announce their comings and goings. Are the pillars of the forum going to shake in their abscence? If you are going to leave, just leave. It's kinda like breaking up with a chick, you stick around for all the crying and drama, you're bound to be sucked back in. I suppose you would do it for the drama. Although I would feel a little like a dog with its tail between the legs; bouncing back in like I never said I was leaving forever.

    Bottom line if you're pissed, turn off the computer. At least then you don't have to come crawling back. Although it is more entertaining this way.
    There are two ways to argue with women. Both of them are wrong.

    Cliff,

    Nicest way possible: Shut up about this and it will go away.... Geez...

    If the "linch mob" doesn't get ammo from you, they'll stop going after you. You control this as much as anyone else.

    yeah i know, it was just a public appology for past stuff and got changed into something else.. I guess if troyD can stop pm'ing me about stuff that happend 3 years ago we can all move on.. He seems to be the instigator lately.. I'll just keep keeping my cool on the forum and ignore the bull... Not that i should have to do this..

    It started as an apology and finished with a justification, standard retreat attack.

    Who started the little PM pissing contest, PUTZ?

    Had you just ignored me, you wouldn't have to worry about what I've got to say. Cliff, the funny thing is that I'm laughing my **** off and you are stomping around (not TOO hard with that bad back and all) red as a vine ripe 'mater three shades of pissed off. THAT is funny.

    If on a bus, you said aloud,
    I'm being pushed and bothered and all are loud.

    Oh sir, yes Mister driver there,
    can you give me some help back here.

    I'm being lambasted but don't know why,
    as all I did was open my fly.

    I mean, I opened my PM's and then did they,
    come back to bite me in the derriere.

    If only I had kept them locked where they,
    had not bothered anyone except those who'd lay.

    Ding Ding ding... Summed it all up in one line, James... which of course I cannot do... so...

    This is the age old pattern.
    1. Announce departure...
    2. Lurk for a period of time...
    3. Start posting again...
    4. Fail to attract enough attention...
    5. Announce return, all have already noted, to gain attention...
    6. Dislike the nature of the attention attracted...
    7. Get "into it" with other members...
    8. Make an uneasy peace, during which contributions are made and times are good...
    9. Get into some other controversy (usually around a FM deal)...
    10. Put on "Mr. Victim" costume...
    11. Repeat as necessary...
    We have now about finshed Phase 6 and are revving up Phase 7...

    I will say that this edition is better than ever. Must be something to that old "practice makes perfect" adage... Highlights so far include:
    • an apology to no one in particular about nothing specific; and
    • an announcement that Private e-mails exist coupled with the complaint that those to whom they were sent are discussing their existence.
    It's not mob mentality... Mob reality? maybe... but we all have our roles to play...
    More later,
    Tour...

    With forums I exercise a rule: I speak to people the way I would if they were guests in my home; as if I'm actually talking to them face-to-face. Do this, and you'll always talk, argue, and discuss in a manner that won't make you feel like you've been "inappropriate." There's nothing wrong with "healthy debate," everyone learns in these situations. As far as those who you feel are trying to screw with you, take the high road---

    We all have our faults, not a big deal.

    I make my living off the evening news
    Just give me something, something I can use
    People love it when you lose, they love dirty laundry

    Well, I could've been an actor, but I wound up here
    I just have to look good, I don't have to be clear
    Come and whisper in my ear, give us dirty laundry

    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em all around

    We got the bubbleheaded bleach-blonde, comes on at 5
    She can tell you about the plane crash with a gleam in her eye
    It's interesting when people die, give us dirty laundry

    Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet?
    You know the boys in the newsroom got a running bet
    Get the widow on the set, we need dirty laundry

    You don't really need to find out what's going on
    You don't really want to know just how far it's gone
    Just leave well enough alone, keep your dirty laundry

    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're stiff, kick 'em all around

    Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies
    We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie
    Love to cut you down to size, we love dirty laundry

    We can do the innuendo, we can dance and sing
    When it's said and done, we haven't told you a thing
    We all know that crap is king, give us dirty laundry
