first of all thank you for your compliments. As for it being a poker game, you can raise the pot, I can call or raise and you can't show me your cards.
You're going to rely on an administrator to do what?
If they were to look at Pickup and Pickup's greatest fan, they would determine that their recent posts were sent respectively from New Jersey and Arizona. Yet I can tell you without a doubt , that the same one person is behind both of them. So, i.p.s addresses for determination of identity means diddley squat.
As for tieguy , I have had some p.m correspondence with him about this and we are both okay about it.

Well, I worked hard all my life, paid my unemployment taxes every paycheck. And you're going to use this excuse to do nothing for how long?
And, by all means, if I wasn't as company and customer orientated as I was. I would have never been fired. So you're saying you drank the beer on duty to help the company and customer? Do you think before you post this crap?
Because, I would have had misses, and taken my lunch instead.
And I advise everyone to go by the book, even in Canada when it gets dark at 4pm, so be it.
When , you take your lunch and come back, and need another half hr for windows to defrost (at minus 40), so be it.
Let UPS deal with it.
Don't get fired over it ! | Looks like some parting advice. Are you leaving the site? Can I bid you a fond farewell?

What am I to do but to take up his cause?
If you had read the thread carefully danny, you would have noticed that Pickup(sigh!) said that there are ways of hiding or seemingly changing one's ip address so that an administrator can check and it would seem that two different ip addresses are being used for two identities but it reality it is the same person posting from the same computer
So it really can't be definitively proven by Cheryl if the user is one and the same unless he took no steps to hide his i.p.
As for your hypothetical bet where you pit your and tieguy's future abilities to post, did you check with tieguy before you put his ability into the deal or did you take it upon yourself to speak for him and hence decide to risk his posting ability? You speak constantly of the "gooberment" taking it upon themselves to decide arbitrarily for people and yet you might have done the same. And if you didn't speak for tieguy with his explicit permission, then you are unable to walk up to the betting window and place your bet .
And what if pickup took your bet and won , and tieguy refused to abide by the terms you set and continued posting ? Then you would have welched on the bet. Pickup was wise(and when isn't He?) not to take the bet for he saved you from carrying the mantle of "deadbeat". He obviously bent over backwards to save you from that shame and as result seems to have picked up some shame in the process. I said "seem to" as any astute observer would see he demonstrated a remarkable amount of restraint in showing you this small measure of mercy.
Pickup, please come back . I for one will be ,immeasurably , for the worse if I can not continue to go to the fount of wisdom that you are. I will continue to go to past posts and meditate on your past teachings in the meantime.
By the way, pickup, I live in Arizona . It is beautiful here and if you ever come to visit me from the garden state of new jersey, it will be even more beautiful | Hmmm a first time poster who had admired pickup from afar and now strongly feels the need to run to pickups defense? Now this is much better material for a good conspiracy buff then trying to create a match between me and socks.....

As far as Canadians, I happen to know a lot of them. Swell people. Beautiful country as well. Proud but yet humble. Unfortunately, been led down a path of larger goverment is good mentality, the cradle to grave services that you seem to love to take advantage of. Many dont like what they see. You can read it in the front pages of the paper if you take the time.
So I can honestly say, you sir are no Canadian.
And like other great societies that have fallen by the wayside, undercut by those that seek to get whatever the government hands out, and vote themselves even more largess at every opportunity.
Nope, you are no Canadian. Instead you are part of the problem.
Not to mention narcissistic.
Pup, glad you are back. Really I am. And no need for thanks, I meant every word. Even if you are your own best fan!

1) Yes, Ft Lauderdale Airport is located in Hollywood, Fl.
2) My customers were only positively effected by me skipping my lunch during my route, so everyone could get thier deliveries (with no misses).
3)I got no point on here to lie. Would be nice if you could just show me 1 example.
4)I actually vote conservative here. The province I live in has been conservative for over 30 years now. Our federal government (lead by Harper as PM), is also conservative, that I also voted for.
(which does not mean they will abolish National Healthcare, and kick the less fortunate out of the system,with higher associated costs, or start having ghettos in every major city).
5) Non Canadian, makes me laugh. We have so many seasonal workers here, fishing and forestry, landscapers, just to name a few.
Some, work only 6 months out of the year, and collect Unemployment the rest of the year.
But, they too, build this country to what it is today.
6) More government (regulations ), doesn't nessecary mean a bad thing.
As we have just experinced what corperate and Wall Street greed did to America, while Canada had no such thing as a banking collapse or housing crunch.
Finnland, Norway and Sweden, for example, the most democratic social governments on earth, are debt free, and are lenders to countries , such as ourselves.
Don't get me wrong, I would never want us to become that social, ever.
Because, it's just too expensive to live there.
Anyways, just wanted to clear the air, thats all.
No hard feelings.
Just my opinions, and my answers to your postings. |

You really need to get your figures from someplace that does not have an ajenda. China and Russia spend more together than we do. And the Chinese are rapidly taking aim at the number one spot.
But as a practical matter, that is one of the actual purposes of our federal gooberment, the national defense of our country.
What is not one of their mandates is the cradle to grave super store of goodies you want. Well, actually, you want what they have, without the cost to you. Problem is, you cant have one without the other. And once the trip down the water slide has begun to marxism, there is no stopping the power grab of the government.
Interesting how you dont respond to my statement that your healthcare system which you profess to be so great makes front page news to the contrary. And same thing in other countries like Germany.
Yeah, our system needs fixed, but you dont have the answer, only a pretty little bandaid that is contaminated with all sorts of evil bacteria that cant wait to infect our society.

d | Dannyboy:
I'm too tired to google anything right now, about Military spending.
If you say, it's ok, what the US spends, I believe you.
On the contrary, if you lived in this country, you would know about a lot of government control ,or jobs , that have been ousted.
Just today, gun registry has made the headline here, that it will be abolished (cost is too high to keep it).
In the past we have given up the motor vehicle branch (DMV), privatized that, also government controlled likor stores.
We have privatized Utilties as well, along with phone service.
So, no. Steps are taken back as well into hands of the private sector.
The latest 2 healthcare headlines : Calgary Flames NHL team got infront of H1N1 vaccination. Well, today, the health official that permittted it, got fired !
Yesterdays headline :POLL: 77% of Canadians believe they would be treated here better then in the US, if they had a serious illness. Up from 71% in 2005.
I really don't know, what is making the headlines there. |
