Thanks Rocket, I haven’t finished catching up on this thread. Well isn’t that nice of Lynn. Sorry Lynn for distrupting your board. I just want all of you to know on the original topic that it posted that I agree with your responses to it. I feel as you all do, no way do I agree with anything she spews forth. ---

But I’m sure you knew that. \*\* The picture Bhudda posted from my website is a portrait taken 5 years ago. Yes, I was slimmer then. So what? The picture idnew keeps posting is from a Memorial Day campout this year. So what? How about everyone here post their real pictures, so the rest of us can poke fun at you, and call you stupid because: you’re fat, anorexic, flat out ugly as a dog’s butt, your complexion is full of pock-marks, you have six fingers on one hand, webbed-toes, you’re wearing purple shorts with a paisley shirt, you’re too short, you’re too tall, you’re too white, too black, too red, too yellow, too green, you have crooked teeth, you have boogers hanging out your nose, YOU’RE SMOKING, etc… Get the picture moron? Am sure you are just as sick in real life as you are here on this board, attacking people because of what they look like, or what their opinions are. Has occurred to me that the reason you people are here posting day and night is because no one in real life will have anything to do with you. As for being a stupid, lying, warmongering, jingoistic asshole… you really should stop looking in the mirror, Coldfire. Someone asked me a couple pages ago if I’d seen the movie _Private Ryan_, and I didnt have a chance to respond because of the other bullshit, but yes… I have a copy of it in my video collection. Have you seen _Air Force One_?.. Very popular movie, made big bucks at the box office, but then Doves wouldn’t care for it… hits too close to home. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by RosieWolf \* > Yes, I was slimmer then. So what? That in itself is no problem whatsoever. As said, this isn’t about your size: it’s about other, much more important characteristics. > [@](#): > > Am sure you are just as sick in real life as you are here on this board, attacking people because of what they look like, or what their opinions are. I never attack someone based on his looks. Damn straight I will attack someone based on his opinions, provided these opinions are as inane as yours. I did not initially attack you on your looks: you provided many other things that would piss people off. In your case, I just put two and two together after seeing your picture. So I thought I’d throw the oil tower thing in. Cheap shot? Possibly. But frankly, I don’t care what you think about it. > [@](#): > > As for being a stupid, lying, warmongering, jingoistic asshole… you really should stop looking in the mirror, Coldfire. I don’t really understand this bit. Are you implying _I_ fit that description rather than you? I’m sure everybody will be quick to agree with you :rolleyes: ---

I agree with you Coldy, after seeing her picture, it’s obvious that she is as ugly as her words. I’m still trying to decide if there was some implication that the younger picture is somehow better. :eek: Rosie - You want to see all of us? Try the people pages. Sorry, I don’t have the link at the moment, but maybe someone else can post it. I can assure you that each and every single person on that page is hot, especially Coldfire. Biggirl - I didn’t get the impression that Coldfire was saying that fat people were stupid. ---

Say, Rosie, as an ex-USAF noncom, surely you understand the concept of chain of command. Why are you so unwilling to let the people who are directly concerned with the Cole investigation, and who have geater expertise than you, do their freakin’ jobs? What is your expertise in forensics, anyway? What do you think is not being done, at this point? Sorry, sending a bunch of drunken, over-the-hill vets to randomly “kick ass” doesn’t count.
