Ultra High Rare Type Cards Wanted

[Jim VB]

Barry,

I agree with your assessment,

but when he says this: "...who refuse to seller for anything less than the best," what does "seller" mean? (I'm guessing he meant "settle".) And why doesn't that sentence have a period at the end?



When he says this: "...there are select number of items that we are actively pursuing.", why can't he get the singulars and plurals of the verbs and nouns to agree?




When he says this to Rob: "We suspect that you and your fellow cross-dressers will soon
form a "board of your own.", why does he think Rob will quake at being called a "cross-dresser"? (Not that there's anything wrong with that!)



When he says to Leon: "You are aware, of course, that perjury is a criminal offense.", what is that suppossed to mean? Does he really not know the difference between libel (or even slander) and perjury? Does he see the distinction between the civil and criminal court systems.


When he emails death threats to board members (Raise your hand if you've gotten one! Rob D? Dan B? Myself? Anyone else?), does he realize how ignorant that makes him look?


When he goes out of his way to belittle the very people he's hoping to sell him things, is that good business?


As I said to you this morning, I agree with Jeff P. I usually appreciate most of Bruce's posts, even if I don't agree with them. They stop and make you think. They encourage debate. But a lot of his stuff comes off as poorly thought out, as well as poorly written. There is nothing sadder than an individual trying to sound intelligent and sophisticated, coming off as uneducated. Don't get me wrong. I'm no high brow snob. I don't care how well someone writes or speaks. I take people as they are, but don't try to use big words and fancy terms when you can't construct a simple sentence.

Yes, and Seinfeld had a nice little run.

Whilst the three low life musketeers, spent hours thinking of child like bathroom humor and viscous attacks, we were quite busy obtaining two items from America's toughest want list.

So all you ex-cons, liberal drug users and micro-minds take note... we managed a 1000 hits from our post- and obtained just what we wanted-two ultra rare baseball cards.

Keep up the good work.

What in the heck did your parents do to you man?

[barrysloate]

Bruce- just out of curiosity, what were the two cards you purchased?

Glad we could help, to not would be, well, viscous.

That is an awful way to talk about Barry! I know he's a little more liberal than most, but I don't think he's ever been convicted of anything. Any drug use was probably confined to youthful indiscretion. I refuse to hold it against him. (Rob D on the other hand, is probably on his own here.)

I guess I'm the micro-mind (sic), Jim. As soon as I figure out what that means, I'll take offense if it will make Bruce happy.
