From my inbox: Shutting down FR's support - extortion attempt

Hello Jim,

Since you've done what you've done to another reporter of mine when others seem to be allowed to post back to their blog or sites viablogger section, I've taken the liberty to gathering information about your website.

1. I've determined the need for all that money a month is invalid. I run a major website, and do not need that much.

2. You seem to be running the show, not a major building with staff.

3. Donations like this should be going elsewhere, needed, not into YOUR pockets.

4. I am having a press release written on FR, urging citizens to stop wasting their money on you, and to donate for a better cause, elsewhere.

5. I will not stop, unless the price is right. Yes, this is a bribe, because I will not screw you over had you not screwed me over. But it can change with swift talks.

6. You are not a true AMERICA LOVER.

7. Have a nice day, expect your vendors to pull out soon and your donations frozen.

Reads like satire. I don’t buy it for a second.

Watch his FR statement on video here and see if you think this is a guy capable of satire. Your skepticism is healthy, but in this case we have a delusional, mentally ill borderline personality who appears ready to go fully psycho.

Bad.
Because then we push our luck.
And eventually statistics catches up and pushes back.
Usually face first into a mud puddle.

[Monkey Face]

Sounds yummy!

[Tax-chick]

It is!

[Monkey Face]

Where IS everyone? It’s lonely out here in cyberspace, and there is no sound, so no one can here me Babble. (Although I’m very fluent in that language!)

Our weather is so beautiful, I can’t believe that Thanksgiving is three weeks away.

(Could someone give me a reality check? I promise I won’t cash it until Election Day...)

[Darksheare]

Fever here.
Wandering in mind fog.
Be back, umm, later I hope.

[Monkey Face]

It’s OK, Darks...you’re excused. Take care of you, Sir!

[Darksheare]

Here’s the best part, itching sinuses.
Fever with itching sinuses.
Thankfully no vomiting.

[Monkey Face]

Itching sinuses are almost as bad as itching eyeballs. Or finger joints.

Take care of you!!

"I guess it’s a good thing that few of the disasters our parents warn us of actually occur."

Oh, really? I distinctly recall my father's constantly warning us to close the door in the wintertime, because he didn't want to heat up the whole outdoors.

And now look where we are! Was my father prescient or what?

He didn't call it global warming though.

[Monkey Face]

My father always said, “If you’re cold, put on more clothes. We can’t afford to heat the whole house.”

[Darksheare]

Parents, always spoiling the fun.
;-)

[Monkey Face]

Yah...my parents were the products of hard times, and taught me to be frugal. For the most part... I think...

[Darksheare]

Science! was not quite promoted in my house for obvius reasons.
(I still say the insect repellant splosion was not my fault.)

[Monkey Face]

Mine, too, not.

[Darksheare]

I was also discouraged from messing with electricity.
I still don’t know how all those breakers tripped.

[Tax-chick]

Evening, all. It’s dark here. We’re having frozen pizza.

[Monkey Face]

Ick. Why don’t you heat the pizza before you eat it?

[Monkey Face]

I had no clue what electricity was until I grabbed the wrong end of the coffee pot cord....

[NicknamedBob]

A jolt of electricity makes you willing to forgo that second cup of coffee.

[ThomasThomas]

I don’t remember most of the times I have been shocked. If it doesn’t leave a scare then it really never happen. It is also not a efficient way to heat pizza either.
