Kind of makes you wonder what it must have been like for Alan Shepard sitting on top of that Redstone just before they lit it....put together by government workers after being assigned the job of building it as the lowest bidder for the contract. :-)) Dudley Henriques I thought Wally Schirra said that. and I thought it was the private sector that bid on government contracts, not "government workers". Remind me in the future if I happen to state pi to extend it to it's maximum just for this newsgroup's more intellectual readers. Dudley Henriques Well, then you would indeed have something to boast about, since it's never been done. Try giving it a rest. Break for lunch or something. Dudley Henriques |

Lighten up. Don't take yourself so seriously. Let me enlighten you on something my friend. I DO take myself QUITE seriously and if you intend posting to me and desire intelligent and meaningful dialog in return, I strongly suggest you try and refrain from using a smart, superior, and condescending tone with me. I don't like it, and it marks you as just one more Usenet "correction artist" to be avoided. Here's a Henriques Usenet hint for you. If you are NOT posting to me in the manner I've described above, USE A ****ING :-) and avoid the predictable second post where you start telling someone who has taken what you have said to them in the EXACT context it was written; how they should be "taking themselves" Trust me, it will save a whole lot of this type of bull **** when dealing with me.

And let me assure you that I do not expect anything intelligent and meaningful in any of your responses. So don't feel you are disappointing me in any way. So once again, lighten up. You'll live longer. And don't waste your time and bandwidth on what you call "Henriques Usenet hints". I'm sure to ignore them. But thanks anyway, for the offer. |

See......with an intellectual level this low, you and I would have nothing to share anyway, so nothing lost. DH (not worth the signature :-) |

Dudley Henriques Hey, Your Dudship, Now you are not only taking yourself too seriously, you have obviously just confused me with someone who gives a good **** what you think about anything. If this is true, why are you keep posting to me continiously when I don't post to you initially? You won't find one post from me to you that wasn't an answering post to you from some idiotic comment you felt you just HAD to make!! :-) And let me assure you that I do not expect anything intelligent and meaningful in any of your responses. So don't feel you are disappointing me in any way. And based on your posting history to me, this is EXACTLY what you will get if anything, so why post to me at all. Simply pass me up since I'm so distasteful to you. :-) So once again, lighten up. You'll live longer. And don't waste your time and bandwidth on what you call "Henriques Usenet hints". I'm sure to ignore them. Actually...as has been proved by this post, you haven't ignored them though have you? :-) But thanks anyway, for the offer. Junior High School stuff! Try something else less predictable. I'm a chess player and tend to enjoy the game, but you're no challenge at all . :-) DH (not really worth the signature) |
