Actually, jak, that's a pretty good description of all your
posts ... snide put downs.

Hmmm, put down.

The Ruger holds 5 rounds and therefore is NOT a six-gun.
While KD is a (suicide?) blond and therefore fair, as a
mother she's hardly a maiden and really doesn't need me to
defend her honor or anything thing else that might need
defending.
You have lowered yourself to the level of Wonderfool,
Blackie, and Roadkill, jak. Childish name calling, snide
remarks, put downs, all at the level of 3rd grade playground
bullies ... no wonder Olin and Joseph stopped posting here.
I frequently disagreed with them on certain subjects, but it
was almost always on a civil level. You and your running
mates stopped being civil long ago.
The unholy trio has even started putting down Faye,
especially since she came out against your Messiah, the most
merciful Lord Barack Obama.
To answer other questions and put down posts here about me:
Of course my mouth was opened when the picture in the
Tennessean was taken. It was a candid shot and I was
speaking about the subject of my letter, the lack of police
presence in Madison.
No, the tie wasn't Italian silk, it was a common, everyday
tie from the rack, probably Sears.
No, I didn't grow the flower. It was presented and pinned
on by a representative of The Tennessean. All the letter
writers got one and the representatives of The Tennessean
wore red ones.
Finally, I'm not going away. I am probably one of the most
stubborn people you and your gang have encountered. I will
stay as long as I want to stay and constant jabs, pokes,
slanders, and put downs won't deter me.
