Look, I don’t know why you’re arguing with me. I didn’t say james *shouldn’t* pay; I just pointed out it’s up for discussion whether james’ terms have been met, and you clearly maintain that the date on the receipt is adequate. I really don’t care one way or the other, hence the lack of other posts by me staking out a position. Hence the lack of me arguing with you now.
It’s just that this thread was 200+ posts deep into discussing a bet between you and james, without *anyone* bothering to actually link to or quote the actual terms of the bet itself, and everyone (james included) relying on recollected accounts of it. That’s just a shabby foundation for a thread.
I don’t know Jamese777. I don’t remember ever exchanging FRemails, and we rarely swapped posts. But it looks to me like the bet has been lost, and FreeRepublic can always use the cash.
The 2010 Q4 FReepathon is going on...I’ll toss in $50, if only because it is a good cause, and I haven’t lost a bet with anyone. How about it, jamese777? Win, lose, or draw, looking like you are welshing on a bet is far worse than just losing, and the cause is worthy.
My $50 will be done is about 5 minutes...
The pics are posted in the thread.
And you made some points which were easily refutable, and thats exactly what I did.
Sorry, but I don’t hold myself responsible for what others do or do not read. But then I do have a shriveled up heart of a conservative :)
