  1. Any girly pics? No. Are you repeating me? CAL Are you repeating me? CAL NO.
  2. Any girly pics? No. Then it isn't worth it... That is what I tried to tell you sir. CAL
  3. Fay, this is the first post. Skip the rest. CAL Cal, I read the whole thread and then came to my conclusion after promising myself I wouldn't get into this one. I hope my comments haven't added fuel to the simmering fire. don't worry Fay - I consider you a civilian in the raging wars that be...you have done no harm. Take care and hope things get better for you. Still think kindly about you now and then. CAL
  4. not exactly - but there is nothing there for you to see. Move on. CAL
  5. Fay, Like I tried to suggest to you earlier, this is the way it is on Boards. Fact of online life. Take care and get some rest. CAL
  6. If I am not mistaken I think I did buy a pet off of Old Guy once. My Bad. CAL
  7. I can do what worked in the past: tell some stupid harmless joke and have the "politically correct" lemmings pile on... that has ALWAYS worked. See Tom Leykis and Don Imus. CAL
  8. Mirrors my first experience Commodore 64 with a 300 baud plug-modem...took ages and nobody minded and I was paying per minute on the phone. Had to take a student job just to pay the $300 monthly phone bills and I was 16 at the time. You probably downloaded some games my group cracked or some demos I wrote back in 1983-1987 Call packs. Cal is going to have a seizure when he sees the administrator taking part in off topic posts in comics general in his post about not having anymore off topic posts It's actually now interesting Hey!! How can this be intersting without my rants??? How???
  9. Nick, yes you are absolutely 100% correct AND you make a lot of sense almost all of the time. I normally do not do this, because I could get in a lot of trouble for this, but I am semi-retired, so thus, sort-of-invincible BUT we had to fire a floorman within the last three months... he "took" by "mistake" $7.00 and the camera and security caught him. They normally handle anywhere $100,000 to $250,000 on No Limit nights. His answer: " It was only $7.00. I did not think it hurt once in a while." I was the manager on duty and had to make a quick decision( it happened during the change of shifts - thus I had to decide quickly): eat it and write out ANOTHER petty cash marker OR turn it in to the Owners and let the chips fall where they may. I had kindly "warned" the younger lad about this before. But I guess he cannot accept my semi-retired role and my "advisory" capacity. The Owners fired him. Over $7.00. So it is 'OK' to break the rules once in a while and post OT in Comics General. Not one poster, no one has yet to come forward and tell me anythig about the shill-chasing stemming from the "OT Fiancee left me boo hoo " thread. Not one. Flamed? Of course. The flamers are somewhere online, out of reach. had the shill not chased me( again) a lot of the garbage on the Boards would have NEVER appeared. Let it go? Of course - I have to. But I can dream, can't I??? good night. CAL
  10. I was too. But to be branded an elitist to me is a compliment CAL
  11. I get too much a kick out of these kind of threads to ever kick you folks off Besides, I like you all too much to see you go BTW......I personally do not mind OT threads if they are few and far between in CG ONLY. I like talking music and movies with fellow COMIC collectors because I care what they think. I do not care what sports or coin fans think. I love the charity threads and Secrect Santa/Chanukh Harrry/Athiest Andy/Budda Barry/etc. threads. And I really love the OT threads when one of is in trouble where we help out or where one of us needs advice as long as they do not turn into trash someone or something threads. We get to know each other and become more of a community. The fact that I know so much about many of you, is the reason some of us have become friends and the reason I love this community so very much. That said, the mods seem to leave it alone as long as you keep it to a minimum and use OT to begin you thread. If the title states OT, anyone who wants can just simply avoid it. At the end of the day, we have always been a bit flexible on these boards, and I think the mods do a great job that they work very hard at! They also do not get the credit they deserve The rules are the rules, but even I have broken them once in a blue moon. That's my (worthless ) And, hey, let's be careful out there! I don't believe this... cannot possibly be happening...
  12. good! another voice of reason instead of "spin"... CAL
