I'm not nasty. But if you already call me downright nasty, you must
really hate the Boner troll. Oh no wait, that's your buddy. Amazing
how you juggle those double standards.

So, I have you complaining that I don't call out Casa. I have him
complaining I don't call out you!

Something for you to think on.

I don't throw around death wishes, I don't call women ****s etc etc.
The list goes on. If you can't see that difference, there's something
really wrong with you.

That's because you treat people equally ftmp.

Sadly that means that Bwuthie's 100% trollish posting gets the same
weighting as my on-charter cooking and recipe posting.

Something for you to consider.

Of course not, your relentless snark is far more civilly couched and as
such vastly more insidious than any of my more overt recriminations.

Additionally it's directed at almost ALL who post here, save for "safe
harbor O"...

Careful Bwuthie, you're fast approaching the safe harbor fail safe point....

Someone in my family had the hardtop version of that car - same lavender
on the outside, same creamy-white leather upholstery. And air
conditioning! - the first air-conditioned car I ever rode in.

If he was worshipping it he'd be doing a lot more than running a rental

Allergies are individual to the dog and this plant isnt particularily

Please, it'd be easy to have a padlocked door on the side of that
space. However locks only keep honest people out. Where I live I
don't lock anything, the doors to my house are always unlocked, my
barns are not only unlocked their huge doors are usually wide open...
the worst that happens is occasionally a few Canada geese wander into
the barn and leave me presents, they never take anything, they hae no
pockets. An endless parade of critters here leave me presents but
they never take anything that they can't eat. I don't care that
critters poop here, free organic fertilizer. The worst crime that
occurs here is critters trespassing and pooping. That's why I've
learned to wear LL Bean boots, easy to hose off and leave at the door.
I've even learned to share my space with skunks... they leave presents
I'd rather not have but still they never take anything they can't eat.
I really ddon 't mind the skunks, they are gorgeous critters,
especially the albinos, all snow white, like ghosts prowling for food
at night.

Someone in my family had the hardtop version of that car - same lavender
on the outside, same creamy-white leather upholstery. And air
conditioning! - the first air-conditioned car I ever rode in.

I don't throw around death wishes, I don't call women ****s etc etc.
The list goes on. If you can't see that difference, there's something
really wrong with you.

Why am I the judge here? I will speak to whomever I wish ... or not as the
case may be. I have always said as much so what is new?

Speak to me nicely and I will respond. The way others speak to you, is not
my business or my fault.

Here's a tip for next time you employ tradesmen;

You're paying them to use their skills to produce a result that's a
credit to the property, its owner, and the tradesman.

If the inexperienced owner makes a request that will look bad or won't
work, a professional, competent contractor should explain a better way
to do it. Because he knows a badly finished/ugly job is a terrible
advert for his business.

When a tradesman leaves a bodge like that brickwork on full public
view, he's not just disrespecting the contract and the employer. He's
flagging up a dire warning about his poor standard of workmanship
throughout, especially the parts you can't see.

Do you disagree? Am I to blame for what other people post?

Am I supposed to fight anyone who posts nasty stuff to you? I have enough
problems defending myself and I don't see you defending me!

Yes, I hate the way others post, but I can't change that, nor am I
responsible for it.

I repeat, if anyone speaks nicely to me, I respond. This is not real life.

Wrong. RFC *is* real life with real people and real feelings.

Oddly enough, being trash-talked on Usenet is nothing to me. It's
quite a bit different in person. Probably something to do with the
way my brain processes the written word.

I can't say I've never had my feelings hurt online, but it's much
milder than if I'd heard those words face to face.

But by granting him safe harbor even though he flames everyone here you
DO bear some onus for his endless snark.
