7th flight - 7.9 hours in.. Too fun!

Rule number one. ALWAYS bring your CFI a snack and a drink when you show up.
It's a lot like feeding the animals at the zoo, they still might growl at you,
but they probably won't eat you for dinner.

Thanks for the support guys.....

It's hard to believe that Dennis Hawkins who was a regular to this
group would stoop so low as to do what he is doing.

For my part I have sent an abuse complaint to his ISP and if you could
do the same I would appreciate it.

TO THE GROUP ----- You will all notice that Mr. Hawkins has
been conspicous by his absence this past week and it will be
interesting to see what sort of reception he receives from
the group if he ever decides to show his face again.

Hopefully within a few days his ISP will put an end to this foolishnes
and this group can settle back down to the enjoyable discussion of
one of our favourite subjects...... helicopters.

Dennis Hawkins is living proof of that.

against Mr. Hawkins regarding his childish behaviour.

I sent them an abuse complaint. What did you do (or say) that made
Hawkins start this crap?

Thank you for your consideration and help.

In ten years on the web I've never seen anyone act this
childish or in such a vindictive way before.

What did you do (or say) that made
Hawkins start this crap?

Some guy named Neb posted a message a few weeks ago and signed it with
some sort of electronic signature which looked kinda like a binary
atachment.

Dennis ragged on him for his transgression but in the process he quoted
back over two hundred lines of text...... So I kinda stuck my tongue
out and said speaking of netiquette, what about failure to trim posts.

Dennis didn't like that comment and over the next few days started to
argue with this Neb guy and confused me with Neb.

I pointed out the I was in Canada and Neb was in Ohio but he still
wanted to argue that we were the same person and accused me of
trolling the group, because I used two or three different signatures.

I pointed out that regardless of my signature that my IP addy was
static and always remained the same.

By then he was beside himself and threatened to make an abuse complaint
to my ISP....... I told him to go right ahead and ever since he has
been in a snit, and is either manually monitoring some of the groups I
post to including this one, or has a piece of software monitoring these
groups.

In any event right now.... Every time I post within a few hours or half
a day one of his obnoxious TROLL ALERT messages shows up.

Considering he was a regular contributor to this group he will have
some explaining to do if and when he ever shows his face here again.

TO THE GROUP ------ You know folks I do post in various newsgroups and
depending on the group (at times) I do use different names.

Now Dennis spent hours doing a GOOGLE search and after tracking
some of those groups down he couldn't wait to tell you all about me.

Funny thing is that he started off talking about some business groups
that I havn't posted to, or monitored in about two years.

and GAAAASSSSSPPPPPP..... He missed altogether the (adult)
personal newsgroup in Edmonton that I post to under the name
TIDDLES ( )

Now if anyone wants to go monitor that newsgroup for my hot
and steamy postings...... well you go right ahead.

I believe the last posting I made there was a few weeks ago when I
posted one of my famous pot roast recipies.

Talk about steamy..... Eh!!!!

But two can play the GOOGLE game and you might be surprised to know
that Mr. Hawkins AKA Dennis the Weasel likes to post in a poulty
newsgroup where people talk about chickens.

The reason I'm telling you this tidbit is because about ten months ago
he kinda tried to hijack that group by posting a FAQ and starting to
set people straight as to what were acceptable posts in that group.

Needles to say...... Every regular in the group told him to take a
hike, that a FAQ wasn't needed, and that the group got along
just fine without his attitude or comments.

After a few weeks of taking a public whiping from the majority he
finally settled down and stopped acting like he was the big cheesey.

Now folks..... Isn't this a fascinating post, doesn't it leave you
spellbound, and clamouring for more steamy details.

Now I did make a lasagna a few hours ago and it was delicious,
so if anyone wants...... I could post my lasagna recipie.

Or if you want I could totally change the subject and tell you another
helicopter story from my short and meagre collection.
