In Reply to: Let's not make this ugly, J.D. posted by Jack Seaton on July 18, 2006 at 20:32:08:
The more I read this post of yours, the more spectacularly, howlingly funny it is.Alright, now I get it --- it was facetious, right.... -- you were doing a send-up of a status-impaired, hopelessly money-centric, middle-aged clown, right ? ....
" Hint: These men have money and spend it ... a lot of it on audio "
All that's irrelevant, Jack. Here's the problem.
Your original post dissed Fremer up & down, without basis or evidence, and you're finding you can't defend it.
I happened to call you on it.So -- you tell us about race cars, cola heirs, largely avoid the issue,
and blow smoke up my ass about " I have a strong grasp of where you are, your experiences to date " ... ??You are One Seriously Pompous Windbag, Jack, but don't believe me.
I say let the reader decide.
I think it's safe to say they're probably getting a Strong Grasp on it.J.D.
