    Default Come on guys, this guest may be from China, I don't...

    Know if there are any comas, words (ideas) or paragraph in Chinese, may be he is doing his best, I agree with George, though probably wouldn’t have being that much hard to Tim either.

    I make an effort to write in fair good English, actually, write in word to check spelling and then copy to the board. Wonder if any of you who feel that much educated to criticize the writing of some posters, would write that good in Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, or any other language used daily by some participants of this board.

    No intention to offend anybody, please.

    for jeff, a rhyme someone in my department once told me

    "we are the best,
    we are like no other,
    and if you say otherwise,
    your mother."

    words to take to heart, jeff.

    and since gas went over $2/gal for 87 octane, i don't let the tank go below 10 gallons.

    (all in fun, no offense intended).

    Default George, surely you must be kidding more)

    ...as so far from your posts, it seems you've establish the following:

    1. If something doesn't bother George, then it shouldn't bother anyone.

    2. No one on the board should be teased about anything, else they shall be "taken to task" by George and given a thorough, verbal thrashing.

    3. George and Tim can both post their opinions, perhaps each with some valid points (that is, up until your reply above anyway), yet Tim's posts somehow "waste more bandwidth" than that of George's. Interesting.

    4. George's "diety"...whoops...I mean "seniority" on the board somehow entitles him to write rude posts in response to others meant in jest, while casting whatever unfounded aspersions he likes along the way, should anyone respond to his lack of tact or poor delivery.

    ...and all in the name of "policing and preserving" the Board and its purity? Give me a break. Sounds a little pious and self-serving to me -- I'm hoping you're not really that full of yourself.

    That either must be one damn small pond you live in, or one huge chip on your shoulder, my friend. I doubt the orig poster himself would've made such a big deal out of this.

So what if he writes like that, I don't care, and I am probably much more discriminating about writing and using the language than yourself.
    As to calling me a prick, well now that we are in the mud, I may be a prick for taking you to task for being petty, but you are a stupid prick for wasting more band width and not accepting the fact that you violated the code of this board which is tolerance and helping other people, instead you elected to criticize the poster and not offer advice, violating two very fundamental tenents of why this board exists. Why I said what I did. And lastly Tim...and hopefully it is young Tim who has a lot to learn about the culture of message boards if not life itself...as in society, there is a pecking order on all boards and you have now violated that tenent as well by criticizing me. Since you live in a glass house and elect to throw stones, I will leave you with what you deserve in terms of correcting the poster's grammar. Tim my boy, you misspelled a word in your above post...its peruse not paruse....not really what the board is about is it?

    Default Living in New Joisey and being the brunt of many (m)

    ...."mafia" jokes (yes--even though I'm Norwegian, I guess living in NJ is 'guilt by association'), this is one of my favs:

    Violets are Blue.
    Roses are Red.
    I just blew up your Car.
    Why ain't you dead?

    or

    We wanted to send you some special wishes;
    But instead we'll let you 'swim with the fishes'.

    No offense to anyone at all.

    I think Tim Gin is taking to heart that I dont care. Is this room that boaring that someone has to post **** that belongs in old police textbooks? Tim, I am dissapointed that it has come this far for some poor SOB that cant spell, as for George and the others this is par for the course. I dont mean to demenior anyone but this is turning into complete crap that has no issue here but perhaps in the off topic boards. Humor runs through out blood but I who is one person that can have a fun time being trapped in a card board box or a trunk does not find the outcome funny at all. Take a step back guys and think before you type...I have no intention of editing my post. Step back and figure where the puncuation should have gone.

    last point Tim...I promise. It isn't about policing the board or pious indignation. It is an open forum and you are welcome to post whatever you want.
    But if you criticize someone, be prepared for a measured response. Perhaps you now know how the poster felt after reading your immediate response to his plea for help after performing a lot of engine work without good result.
    Doesn't feel very good does it?
    I wish you well.
