All anyone has to do to see who is lying is to go to the Google Archives for
ARBR from a couple of years ago and see who was saying what to whom and how
it was being said - and then note how silent Tom Sherman was during the
entire episode. I understand scalawags like Ed Gin and Jim McNamara, but Tom
Sherman remains an eternal mystery to me.

My low opinion of the members of ARBR is well illustrated by posts such as
yours. The only messages I find worth reading are my own - which eternally
confirm My Greatness! Yea, I have become a legend in my own mind.

I can only presume that you were so bold because you are confident
that no one aould ever follow your advice or I would have cautioned to
to tread softly. Just where do you suppose the quotes ... "Jim is an
expert in dealing with criminal vandal trolls as he has had a world of
experience with a particular one who went by the name of Ed Gin. Only
Jim McNamara, I and a very few others ever stood up to this criminal
vandal troll to defend the ARBR cycling newsgroup." can be found?
Why in the Google Archives for ARBR. That's where and whose words
might they be? Well there yours and stand in utter contradiction of
you unsubstantiated assertion (read LIE) that I aided and abetted Ed
Gin. You really should make a concerted effort not to say things you
cannot prove and not say things that contradict what you have already
written so as not to undermine your credibility and illustrate what a
fool you are. Also in the Goolge Archives for ARBR can be found the
following quote of yours ... "I will stand by every message I have
ever posted to Usenet, bar none. Some of my posts will require some
explanation no doubt, but I can defend and justify everything I have
ever said to anyone." So how do you propose to stand by two
diametrically opposed accounts? Some of your posts require some
explanation for sure, but good luck defending and justifying
incongruous contradiction. The conundrum continues!

Well, that was then, this is now.

I hold you responsible for bringing Ed Gin to this newsgroup (ARBR). You
should have kept your squabbles with him confined to emails. After all, you
knew the kind of criminal he was. Why did you inflict him on the group?

Also in the Goolge Archives for ARBR can be found the

You have earned for yourself the reputation of a stalker. This supersedes
whatever qualities you may have had in the past.

His headers contain "Date: Fri, 23 May 2008 01:19:39 -0500". Insomnia
perhaps? :-)

I keep the oddest hours of anyone in the known universe. I am more often
than not just going to bed when others are just getting up. Except when I go
out of the house to do chores or go for a bike ride I live in a darkened
room with the curtains permanently drawn. I sometime do not know if it is AM
or PM unless I look out the window and I lose all track of the days of the
week. Ever since I was 30 I have lived in an eternity of Saturdays. I scare
myself sometimes when I am not sure of the month, but I never confuse the
seasons. It is always 9 long months of winter here in Minnesota and only 3
short months of summer.

One of these days I am going to go down to my dirt floor basement and hang
myself from the rafters. But I am waiting for my 20 cats to precede me in
death. After all, they depend on me.
