Took my mom there on her last trip to see friends before she passed. She grew up in Ann Arbor and went to U of M. Dad came from Valpo. Click image for larger version

A feud insinuates equivalence. Blob has an extensive spank bank of screen shots of my posts that he believes justifies his hatred. I treat The Blob like I treat Himey; it is extremely rare for me to initiate a dialog. But I will respond most times, with facts, to point out irony, or succinct ridicule.

We've gone over this before, and with you.

Since Bob has steadfastly refused, it only serves to elevate St. Douglas's conclusion. Based on the observing Bob's behavior over the last few months, I would argue that the level of certainty is approaching the high 90's.

After watching The Sting in '73, I used the expression 'that's Jake' for the next 10 years. Jesus. I guess there've been signs all along. Sigh....

No hatred on my part. And really just the opposite your engineering follies are very entertaining. You say it is rare to initiate my ass. I am in your head so bad you talk shit about me in threads I am not even in not to mention the threads you started about me. You are as delusional as your mentor and unable to respond to any of my questions with any distinguishable intelligence.

Are you unsure Big Bob is Antfarmer2 or that Antfarmer2 killed someone in a DUI incedent?

How on earth is me wanting to know what kind of tractor Big Bob prefers castigation over a criminal matter? I'd like to know if he has one of those old bellows-type farm forge as well. He has the antique Swedish Steel anvils. And 5 will get you 10 he knows what an 'anvil salute' is.

I think the inclination to blame jurors who can't understand is probably mostly made by a DA who blew the case.

Sorry to hijack your thread and lead it down this path.

Nope. The civil matter is AF2=BB. What AF2 did or did not do is irrelevant.

Exactly. And for this thread, not important. I just wanted Big Bob to share some of his life experiences with us. He's older, grew up in a rural setting, and likely has a lot of handy tips and work-arounds.
