Heard Through The Grapevine

        Apparently you don't get it, even yet. Just to make it clear...You were making personal attacks on someone. You misconstrued his humorous blog and accused him of making personal attacks on you. But you went too far and in my opinion crossed the line and were bullying him and engaging in character assasination of someone we all know to be a fine person.. I don't like or encourage bullies. I wanted you to know how out of line you were and the trouble you were trying to cause. I would have and will do the same if I thought it was being done by anyone else to anyone else, including you.. If you weren't concerned "if these 2 were the same person or not why did you keep bringing it up? No one was cradling anyone. I haven't seen or talked to Pacman in a year or two. He is quite capable of handling anything on this forum. I just didn't like the way you went after the messenger istead of the message. You keep making comments in this matter that are personal and demonstrate your desire to attack personally. Such as, "Nagy is easily riled up, it was just something to keep him huffing and pufing about". Friend, you couldn;t be more wrong! I'm not easily riled. When I am you won't have to wonder about it, you'll know it,  I promise. So, huff and puff on that.  Also, I always write under my own name. I don't write under any anonymous names. I do that intentionally to take personal responsibility for what I say. I have no problem with those who write under other identitites. I understand that there is good reason for that in many cases. You are right when you say, "whether people use real or fake names is not important'. I would add  - most of the time.

              So, Rhodes, why don't you drop it. Even as recently as yesterday, you wrote a couple of excellent blogs that were about serious matters on this forum on other issues. I and others have said that to you all along. Why don't you continue to do that and let's move on. If not I will respond accordingly.

             Thank you.

Why don't you just keep your word and not talk to me?

Paul Nagy

        I don't think Rhodes is a bad guy - before or now.  I think he just crossed the line in his attack and insults on a blogger. I just responded to him in the same length he responded. He has every right to say anything he wants and so do we and so do you, even when we are wrong. There is no shame on any of us.

That's what open debate is all about.  I appreciate your coming to his aid but he did just fine. I think he makes positive contributions here like the rest of us do on occassion. Long live Middletownusa!

I don't see it that way.

 

the mj trolls are accomplishing their goal to stir up and distract this forum.

then pac and Paul want to insult in long form.

 

shame shame shame

 

keep yer eye on the ball and yer head in the game

divide and conquer is one of the dark siders' methods--will u allow it to work?

 

ate at the 5 guys in cville--not the best burger that I have had, but better than most chains.

I like Panera, and would expect either/both to do very well here, except that they have no $1 meals--far from it.

 

best to pattigirl and her venture--so would yo co-habit the site, or would you vacate?

Or would you become a chick filet operator?

 

guilty rhodes as I near 1000 posts in 3 1/2 years here.

I have promised myself to be out for good by  1000, and I will follow through this time

so I am trying to limit my ramblings

this place and my thinking has caused me enough grief with others in town
