LOL! Does your father know you're the best clown in RAH? LMAO! Your
backpedalling act is HILARIOUS! HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!


I have contacted the IGMC and provided details regarding your unauthorized
use of Marine uniforms.


Did you send them a picture of your daddy too?

I will tell you something about my father. He told me that given time,
everyone's true character will be revealed. Your character is well
established.

Juan, you make an issue of my anonymity. I ask you this question. How is
it that an anonymous poster on RAH gets more respect from his audience than
a former Marine? Ask yourself. You are a clown.

Didn't he also tell you that a man's character is revealed much quicker by
the size of the yellow stripe? Look in the mirror.

LOL! You think that's respect? grin Ever wonder what people say about you
behind your back?

Do I wonder what people say about me behind my back?

Not to any great extent. I'm truthful and sincere, everything else pretty
much works out on its own. Those that are close to me are in the best
position to evaluate my character based on my words and actions. To those
that are not well positioned to evaluate my character, I don't go out of my
way to shape to their opinions. Over time, most folks will figure it out.

You are probably a good husband, father, and neighbor. Unfortunately,
something consistently gets lost in translation when you speak to an
Internet audience. Maybe, things that are intended to entertain or
educate, come off as boastful or arrogant - or even beg belief. If that is
the case, you have to ask yourself why you are so misunderstood by so many
people. Is there a slight language barrier jet lag? I don't know, I'm
giving you the benefit of the doubt that you aren't as big an asshole as
many of us perceive.

Until you opened your mouth, most of us were poised to respect you for your
military service and accept that such service often includes sacrifice,
risk, pressure, and emotional reward for a job well done, a job that might
have saved lives or a job that might have helped a unit meets its
objectives.

You enter into dangerous territory when a recantation of your achievements
are expressed in terms of sacrifice, risk, the preservation of life. If
viewed as a boast in any way, the reader immediately thinks of those that
sacrificed more, risked more, and saved more lives, without any boasts.

Without minimizing the emotional fulfillment you experienced when you helped
that mother and child, I must say that many of us here on RAH would expect
nothing less from a Marine.

I have a couple of stories of similar gravity that I probably will never
describe in a forum like this because I am afraid of how such a telling
would be perceived. I guess my thought is that a lot of people would have
reacted in similar ways if they were placed in similar situations.

I guess if joe-blow were to tell the same story as you did, we would be a
little more passive. You were a Marine. We expect more of Marines.

That we have in common. Most folks who know me have already figured me out.

Dangerous to make assumptions. I have been online since before most people
knew what a modem was. This usenet newsgroups contains an infinitesimal
fraction of my total participation on the Internet, before that on places
like the GEnie info service where I was a sysop and responsible for
maintenance of their Aladdin front end, and before that on Fido BBS'.

Maybe, things that are intended to entertain or educate, come off as
boastful or arrogant - or even beg belief. If that is the case, you have
to ask yourself why you are so misunderstood by so many people.


So many? Kiddo, there are many 12 people here who think they "understand"
me. They keep trying to put me down, and don't realize that it is I who is
using them as entertainment. I've tried to repeat this many times, but it
seems to go in one ear and out the other -- I don't CARE what any of the
rahgagglers think about me or the things I've done, or the things they think
I haven't done. This is nothing but entertainment. It is literally how I
describe it -- yank the chain, watch the puppets dance.

Is there a slight language barrier jet lag? I don't know, I'm giving you
the benefit of the doubt that you aren't as big an asshole as many of us
perceive.


Alright. If that is the case I may do the same for you. But not while you
continue to hide behind an anonymous posting name.

You enter into dangerous territory when a recantation of your achievements
are expressed in terms of sacrifice, risk, the preservation of life. If
viewed as a boast in any way, the reader immediately thinks of those that
sacrificed more, risked more, and saved more lives, without any boasts.


You're ignoring the beginning of the thread and the reason I posted that
small story. Go back and read it again.

I guess if joe-blow were to tell the same story as you did, we would be a
little more passive. You were a Marine. We expect more of Marines.


And you got much more. But you see, I don't need anyone to validate that for
me. I know what I did. That mom and that kid was just one day in a four year
career. It just happens to be something I'm proud of because it was lives
saved, rather than taken.

As opposed to what, being near the mess hall, like you?

Precisely. I don't worry about what people say behind my back, because I
don't give any respect to anyone who won't say it to my face.

Actually, I've never seen you give anyone any respect at all..


But what I meant is nobody could possibly say anything worse about you
behind your back than what's said here.

Or, for that matter, what you actually think of yourself.
