_sigh_ Since it is confession time, I would like to come clean as well. I am actually not a Dutch, 26 year old Investment Banker as stated in my profile. I am really a 54 year old KGB spy. I post from a deserted cabin in the woods near Assboink, Idaho. You cannot trace me because my laptop connects directly to Russian satellites. I am in direct and daily contact with President Putin. ## I was a sniper myself: a trait I inherited from my dear old dad who was a gunsman and body guard for Joseph Stalin. Who, incidently, wasn’t all that bad - don’t believe everything you read in the papers. **Coldfire** * * * _ **"You know how complex women are"** _ - Neil Peart, **Rush** (1993) ---

I think this is the point in the cartoon where we all see a picture of a screw and picture of a ball appear above Dannyboy’s head. I hope the next scene involves either an anvil or an Acme rocket. ---

Ha Ha Ha. I must say Danny, that was pretty funny. I for one saw the O.P. as humorous parody of DOG trolls (DOG-delusion of grandeur). I loved the bit about: > [@](#): > > NewtonsApple= an innocent bystander of considerable wealth ---

My investigation of the Mikey business stopped when Mikey left. But it did reveal that Walter Wunderlich had never been an “assistant state’s attorney.” There was some speculation he might have worked for the attorney general’s office. I can easily take up this part of the investigation again, but I suspect it would be futile. As Monty suggests, the DD214 is mischaracterized by the above description. I have a DD214 here; unfortunately, it’s in FormFlow 2.0 format, that being the forms application we use here in OSD. I am now 100% convinced that Danny is the same person who was posting as Mikey, as Finder, and as Former Agent. From this point on, I will treat any posts by Danny as if they do not exist, and I urge all others to do likewise. As Susan Powder would say, “Let’s stop the madness!” Please. - Rick ---

> [@](#): > > official DD214 says he was a sniper and had confirmed kills BULLSHIT! I see literally THOUSANDS of DD-214s in my line of business and I have yet to see one as you described. Oh, and I did a data base search using the name Matthew Anderson, U.S. Marine Corps in the government’s nationwide system (I work for them so I have special access) that logs all veterans who have used the VA disability or medical benefits and I didn’t even get one hit. Go figure. ## Since you are such a fountain of knowledge, e-mail me the guys SSN and date of birth and I will research further. You want to proof yourself, here is your chance.

> [@](#): > > Recently Mr. Andersen was fired by [IMOTORS.COM](http://IMOTORS.COM) due to alleged ties he had to a group preaching “New world order” ties. I love it! Somebody is “preaching” ties to a group that is supposed to be so ultra-secret that no one will admit being a member. (And why does an on-line used car dealer need an “INTERNET SEARCH AGENT”?) David and Glitch, I agree that the style is pure Phaedrus (and was all the way through the rant against DavidB), but this guy’s S&G isn’t up to Phaedrus’s standards. (Although I suppose that he might be trying to “dumb down” his typing as a disguise.) * * * Tom~ ---

You know the old saying “It’s better to be silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt”? Well, it’s better to post rarely and be suspected of being a tin-foil-hat-wearing, no-medication-taking, not-allowed-access-to-sharp-objects sock puppet, than to post “proof” at length and remove all doubt. * * * Jodi _Fiat Justitia_ ---

It’s 2:44 PM in my little hidey-hole I call an office. Tears are streaming down my face. Am I crying? Oh no. Laughing hysterically at the newest lyrics to “Danny Boy”.

We have a new champ-ee-on for funniest thread I’ve ever seen. I love you guys. _Now see here, 007. This may look like an ordinary Mont Blanc pen, but when you press this lever, it becomes capable of shooting blood through the windshield onto the console of a Ford Bronco…_. Oh, by the way, Danny, in your tale of Mr. Andersen, you forgot the part about when he moves to Russia and becomes a Commie.

Gee, Jab; I’m wounded. Not to take away from another poster’s shooting & scoring, but I believe I posted the link to the actual regulation which the Navy says what does and doesn’t go into said DD Form 214.
