What has any of that got to do with having an Internet column? Keep trying, Cheech.

[Quilla]

I'm so damned good that not only can I post here, I stil get my work done, and they love me!

[Russ]

No, I don't need a diagram. Neither do I need to be talked down to!

Did Bush Admin Force Newsweek to Retract True Story?;

No, acually we forced Newsweek to retract a false story.

[jjbrouwer]

You seem to be changing your story. I never denied being a journalist. I denied having an Internet column.

By the way, I don't take drugs. I've seen the way they've screwed up other people.

[jjbrouwer]

Why would you want to do that? And who is the sinister "we"...?

[PogySailor]

bttt

[jjbrouwer]

Please learn the difference between the words "infer" and "imply"...

YOU could infer that from what I said, but I would be IMPLYING it.

As I said before, I'm more than happy to tell you about my job in private reply. I don't want to post it here - which isn't unreasonable. Unfortunately, you are an attention monkey with way too much time on your hands so you wouldn't want to agree to that.

[jjbrouwer]

For someone who couldn't be bothered, you spent an awful lot of your day asking me...

If you want to know, I'll tell you (in private reply.) If you don't want to know, stop wasting my time and your time.

[jjbrouwer]

Well, you may have been ATTEMPTING to point out hypocrisy but you didn't succeed. All you demonstrated was that you spend most of your day anxiously waiting to reply to anyone dumb enough to reply to you. And, yes, on today's evidence I have to agree I do appear to have fallen into that unfortunate category.

I should have realised by now that you live on the Internet and you are always going to want to have the last word - even if it's an asinine one. So, by all means have it.

[Osage Orange]

I guess it all depends on what the "idiot" market will bear.

That market is bullish....

And the MSM know it.

Guys, please, enough already. Flame wars run counter to FR tradition, and I am saddened to see this thread used for such purposes. If you must, please confine your communication to private messages. Any further flames on this thread will result in my asking the admin monderator to intervene.

Yeah, we've abandoned it. In fact, I apologize for letting my distaste for jj pollute your thread. It's a good thread. So, tell ya what, let's have the Admin Moderator remove my posts to jj, and I offer apologies to both the Admin tasked with the annoying job of removing posts, and to you.

I just really don't like that guy. Sorry about bringing that bias onto you, though.

I'll just ignore the guy from now on. In fact, I prolly should just ignore anyone who is a naysayer who comes to pester me. To respond to them gives them power.
