Gary, I've only twice before wished someone would dry up and blow away.. Today I expand that thought to two others .... you and my wife. I've expressed my feelings to her today when she arrived back home from her KC trip where she arranged for her boyfriend to finance her moving away to be with him .... so I might as well share my personal thoughts with you as long as I'm at it.
Gary, you are a real piece of work. Me, I go through life expecting little from people and most of the time that's what I get. Occasionally I find that there are decent, honest folk out there who just look for a fair deal and treat others with respect. When I find what I expected and the person in question is a waste of skin, I move on and go about my business. When I find folk who are like me and honest, stick to their word and don't smother others with sob stories in order to collect a quarter in a cup out of sympathy I respect their existence. If I am in a position to help or have something they might find essential in my power to share, I do. Yes, I have my troubles at the moment and find myself lower than I've ever been with no body to ask for help. I don't use my troubles as bargaining chips. Never have and never will. In this particular case my acquaintances who have use of my possessions that I can't fit into the box I plan to take with me will make out like bandits. And I feel good about that, at least someone will benefit from my misfortune.
You on the other hand are a piece of Sh!t. Every single time you badmouth me is just another person on this site you loose credibility with. No one here actually knows me personally, but those who have been here long enough know that I have sent out parts and things for free just to help. Some have done the same for me in the form of technical help, patches and even custom belt buckles. I've been invited into their homes should the need arise. I appreciate every single person on this site who has integrity and is willing to give aid and comfort to a fellow human being deserving of their charity.
I do love you all who have offered help and advice over the years, I just want to get that out there. Thank you all.
Gary, ... I'm not a crook, I'm not a thief, I'm not a cheat. You are welcome to your opinion, but god help you if you think you can find anyone here that will listen to you. I truly think you've burned your bridges here, my advice would be to go elsewhere before you really make me angry. Soon I'll be mobile, homeless and with nothing to lose.... do you really want that kind of person to have your address? Think about it. I really, really despise cyber bullies, be very careful of who you taunt.
Besides being college educated, an ASE certified master mechanic, Pilot, marksman, locomotive engineer and a number of other little talents ... I'm also a very accomplished locksmith.
(and of course I only put that out there for potential employers to take note of)
