The only thing wrong with me is that I take offense to you coming on here with your typically rude and condescending posts. I don't care who you are pointing your barbs at, it sours just about every thread you enter, almost always without cause.
The photo credit thread was a great example. Some very rare poster wants to give some photog an attaboy for what he considered a nice picture, and you went off on him. And still are earlier in this post.
It is tiring and the boards would be better off without it, regardless of whatever slight glimmer of useful info you occasionally post here.
I didn't "go off" on anyone on that thread. You are projecting your own miserable mindset into my posts. It was YOU who chose to sour that thread, not me.
Here's the entire exchange. Straightforward until bad hammy decided to ruin it, as he always does.

I could have been clearer and I am sorry to have caused any confusion. jim
malmo wrote:"Artistic ownership" -- surely you jest? You've made a lot of presumptions there. Where I come from when someone gives you a photo, you don't ask them for their SSN and drivers license. You just say "thanks." Which I did.

Look in the mirror pal. I am not "smarting" over any request. It was none of the guys business, nor is it any of your business. End of story.
My business is circumference. An ignorance, not of customs, but if caught with the dawn, or the sunset see me, myself the only kangaroo among the beauty, sir, if you please, it afflicts me, and I thought that instruction would take it away. - Emily Dickinson

Now I could say, as you've said before, "look in the mirror, pal." But in this area you're blind and so I will not mock the afflicted . . .
Tough-guy actor and martial-arts expert Chuck Norris, real name Carlos Ray Norris, sued publisher Penguin on Friday over a book he claims unfairly exploits his famous name, based on a satirical Internet list of "mythical facts" about him. Penguin published "The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 facts about the World's Greatest Human" in November.

Garry, does this mean we can't discuss our favorites choices in breakfast cereals here? I prefer Special K, with Granola mixed in, and sometimes Grape-Nuts. Does this get me thrown off the list?

I was just about to post this. OK, so you've now pissed off Chuck Norris, guys. Insert your own joke here!
I've never understood how anyone can eat grape-nuts. Do you chew them or swallow them whole? Or do you leave them to soak overnight to relieve them of their gravel-like hardness?
I like various Trader Joe granola's mixed with one Weetabix.

Thanks...
Good question - sometimes I let them soak a bit in the milk, but sometimes I like them crunchy.
And in searching for that, more Chuck Norris lines than anybody should ever need (and now you know where Dos Equis got its inspiration for the most interesting man in the world)

Allowing someone, and his wife, to speak his/their minds on the great issues of our day is a political violation? By the way anyone who is interested in Norris et als views they can google it easily. Or see it on John Stewart.
Feel free to discuss all the great issues of the day you like with family, friends, or on a thousand other boards. Raise politics here and your right to discussion gets curtailed. It's a pretty simple rule.
