I think, frankly, that it's going to take just a bit more than that, Mini-Scartch, to keep this issue inflamed -- although Bishop Busybody is, without question, a brilliant stroke and a devastating one.

Perhaps you should light a spark on another thread, or even start a new thread devoted to repeating your litany of condemnations?

Nah. What you did was so over the top it will long be remembered. Your cross to bear.

I'm sure your past behavior and words will come up again on this bb (and perhaps elsewhere), especially when you solicit private contact from posters who may not know about you utter lack of discretion when it comes to in real life information. But don't worry, we'll keep them apprised ... and safe.

I know that you and the Scartchmeister can be counted upon to seek to damage my reputation and defame me at every opportunity.

And you've found the perfect board on which to do it, and a gratifyingly gullible audience of perhaps as many as four or five.

Not at all. Your own words do that all by themselves.

Very few (maybe only one or two) have taken your side in the GoodK debacle. Face it, Bishop Busybody, no matter how hard you try, you cannot excuse away your actions toward GoodK and his family. You blew it, pure and simple. Learn from your monumental mistake, accept responsibility, apologize, and move on.

I dunno, Dan, when I start hearing about your assault rifle, I'd say Rollo's got nothing on some folks.

It's when you start hearing it in the neighborhood that you'll have something to think about.

(There. That should have the Scartchmeister on smelling salts -- and pounding his keyboard -- for the next week or two.)

Care to clarify that statement?

Hearing what? Your assault rifle talk? Or making noises from firing full metal jacket slugs?

Bishop Busybody, the Real-World's equivalent of a personified SCMC. ;)

I'm sure glad I don't live in your neighborhood. ;)
