Oh dear Frank, you are a hoot to be sure! Listen closely and carefully because this will be one of those rare times that I am actually addressing you personally.



REX SAID, I wash my hands of you. You said that in a previous post. So why are you responding now? Again, this is a simple example of context. You obviously changed your context or you would not have replied now.



First off, my name is Troy, you should know that by now if you weren't so daft. But I take no offense as I was called that in the Army all the time and sometimes a lot worse, it's all good!



You always keep yammering on about context and yet here is a completely fine example of being taken out of context but it's you that is taking what I said out of context, you ol' hypocrite you! When I said that I wash my hands of you, I meant what I said, that I was no longer going to be bothered with YOU directly. This doesn't mean that I still can't read what you have to say or respond to others about you which is what I did, I was responding to Gregg as you should be able to discern by now from all the thousands of posts you've made on this forum, you should be able to comprehend the layout of posts in whom they are in respondence to. In this case, I was merely responding to Gregg about you, I wasn't talking to you but about you, to another human being. Can you comprehend that? So you are incorrect in stating that I've changed my stance of washing my hands of you, that rule still applies (except for the rare occurrence like now).



Stop acting like little jealous kids, which is exactly what your doing.



Is it really? Pray tell, what on earth could I possibly be jealous about of you or yours? If truth be spoken, it's a conjuring of your egomaniacal mind Frank, it truly is. Perhaps it is you that is projecting your jealousy onto others, that would make more sense than any of us being jealous of you. Seriously though, how did you come to this conclusion? Please entertain me with a well thought out reason that gives you this impression, I would truly love to hear it.



You make silly accusations.



What accusations have I made other than about your clearly witnessed ego? I merely posted quotes of what you said and even gratiously made them links to your entire posts so that others could read them in their full context (see how thoughtful I am?). The sad thing is, your words are more harmful to you than helpful to others when your ego overrides all else. If quoting your own words is so damaging to your ego Frank, then perhaps you should choose your words more wisely!



I'm not claiming that you don't have any knowledge to be shared with others, you do, but you act all high and mighty about it which derides anything worthwhile you might have to offer, you lord your supposed knowledge over everybody which turns a lot of people off. The irony is, what you have in supposed knowledge, you lack in wisdom in how to convey it in any meaningful way that is not passive-aggressive, insulting or above all, fictiously inflated and arrogant. What I am saying are not accusations Frank, it is the truth as has been discovered by seeing how many others, way before I even knew you existed, have been responding to you for quite some time due to your egomaniacal personality. Heck, someone even took the time, energy and money into dedicating a web site in honor of your egotistical words Frank! What does that tell you?



what the heck are you afraid of...?



Since it is a conjuring of your egotistical mind, you tell me what I am afraid of. As others that know me quite well here, I am not afraid of anyone or anything anyone has to say and have shared my time here in many discussions and disagreements as many can attest to. The difference between you and me though is that I never (intend to) belittle the people I am talking to and that's a huge problem with you. It's all about intention Frank.



The bottom line is, Frank, you are nothing for me to be jealous nor afraid of. I do pity you being a slave to your own ego, but that is all. The fact that you are such a hypocrite by saying that I make silly accusations when in fact it is you that is the one making the silly accusations by saying that I am jealous and afraid of you is not lost on me nor the humor of it all.



And you keep calling everyone children Frank, do you realize that? However much older you are to the rest of us, that you love to lord over us, what you make up for in years, you sadly lack in wisdom and maturity. If age hasn't affored you with wisdom and maturity by now, then I'm afraid that a lot of your time on this planet has been wasted!



At the end of the day, no matter how much ridiculous chest thumping claptrap that you vomit, I will only find humor in your words. So thanks for that! Keep on keeping on Frank...
