> [@askeptic](#): > > OOCC based on you other posts I understand why you chose to pit me. I wish my first pitting had been by someone intelligent, from whom I could have learned something. Instead I get pitted by some right wing freak who cannot spell bowl. remember when I said you were a psycho? flying off the handle at me and calling me names has surely proven me wrong! ---

Happy **askeptic** ’s Day, everyone! Lest any other fools ‘think’ I’m trying to speak for the ‘entire board’, pray allow me to disclaim: I neither speak, nor type, nor pretend to speak or type, for any but myself, _and_ I’m consistent. Happy **Munch** ’s Day, everyone! ---

Well at least you’re NOT consistant. I woke up this morning anticipating a reference to April 1st and me. Despite the fact that I have made a mighty effort to stop being an idiot. Little did I suspect that today would be the day I would ask my wife for a divorce. Hell you could not be expected to know or care but christ, right now insults (especially unwarranted ones) kind of hurt. Not that you or anyone else should care. I am just whining to myself and fuuriously typing my fingers off to avoid thinking about what is going to happen once she calls her lawyer… ---

**askeptic** , You don’t know me and I don’t know you, but I divorced my first wife: It was ugly. Let me give you some advice. Find something else to do, you are going to be overwhelmed with nervous energy, or whatever you want to call it. Your self-admitted frail grasp on sanity cannot be helped posting here. You don’t need people calling you names. You’ll be doing enough of that yourself. Myself, I worked 14 days learning stuff like C++ and X. ---

You could also learn New Testament Greek. It isn’t that much different than modern Greek. ---
