Perception is reality. . .

< Obsolete Link > Ken Drake’s lengthy diatribe is at best nauseating, but he like anyone else can state his views and he alone is accountable for them. I seek no support form others and do not partake of the pack animal style that has festered here. I live and die by my own words today just as I have form the first day I ever posted to this forum.
I don’t need the support of “Blue’s, Ajack’s, Fred’s, Andrew d’s or Ken’s for that matter to feel confident in my skills, life and family. Moreover I have stated my opinion about them in clear and certain terms.
If anyone is intimidated by me or how I reply to anyone else then it’s clear that those people my have a problem with their own insecurity.
Hey, making friends is great, but being able to know the difference between phonies and fools is better.

*Mike. Someone (I know only his first name, Issac) e once said "I don't want to communicate with you. I am not a receiver and you are not a transmitter. I want to takl with you." GeneL
*talk away, gene.. i'll listen..and respond...
*Jozo, I'm not sure that calling anyone and everyone obscene names constitutes offering your opinion in clear and certain terms. And I don't remember anyone asking for your opinion on them. I'm fairly certain that I didn't ask you for your opinion about me.Perception is reality. My perception is that you enjoy attacking others for the fun of attacking. You change a discussion of worksite details into a name calling, insulting thread, with no regard to basic adult manners. A simple question is enough to set you into a rage that frankly astounds me. I certainly glad that I don't have you for a neighbor.I'll not try to defend any of the named "pack" that you named in your opening salvo, because I don't claim to know the history. I don't even care to know the history. I do know that you initiated the attack in the hip thread, and gladly escallated it on every post, no matter how many olive branches were offered. If there's one thing that I admire about you is your persistence and your consistency. At least we all know what your responses will be.I'm not ever quite sure what you are trying to accomplish when you answer a post. I am convinced that you don't have any intention of learning anything. Learning would require a dialouge. You only seem interested in defending your posts, no matter how wrong they may be. You remind me of my Grandfather. He refused to believe that man landed on the moon. He offered proof that the Gov was stealing our money by telling me that the entire thing was simulated, because they sometimes even labeled their television pictures as "simulated".He was a fun old man, but after a while, nobody paid attention when he talked. It was sad, because he had a lifetime of experiences, some good, some sad that he could have shared. Like I said, you remind me of my grandfather. But I'm afraid many are already dismissing your "expertise" simply because it's too hard to discuss anything with you.I offer no apologies for the ball of string thread or anything else that I've posted lately, except for the misunderstanding that we've already discussed early in the hip thread. I viewed much of what was being discussed as just bad taste amusing chat. If you can refer to us as stooges, just because we are trying to make a point, then I guess you don't mind us razzing you about your ball of string. I was genuinely suprrised that you actually thought that I didn't fix the goofs in the Booger' thread however. I'm not sure if you actually thought that I left the goofs, of just intentionally misrepresented them to somehow embarass me. Only you can answer that.Anyways, thanks for reminding me of what perception is. You now know what my perceptions are.blue
*i You and I have spoken for sometime now and even though we don't see the world in the same flavor, we manage to get alone.Um, about that... I think it only fair that I should tell youse guys that the rest of the guys are starting to talk about you two, and how you always seem to be getting 'alone'. I mean, what are youse two doing in that porta-potty, anyway ?LOLi (It's a joke, Joe.) : )
