RSB is raining garbage, so I thought that I might come over to this Forum to post. Wait... I've been posting over here. What in the heck am I talking about ? Talk among yourselves while I sort this out...

Good to see your feeling better. Have you started back playing
yet? Any action around the new home of the Stanley Cup?

I am with you Smorg...I get a headache just looking at the topic headers. I think a certain poster from Tejas must qualify for the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest capacity bladder in the world, as he seems to piss on every post there is on RSB.
Never seen anyone that could stir up some much hate and discontent!!

He isn't nearly as bad as several new posters who showed up in the last week or so. I guess some people think it's all one person, FL. Whoever it is he's (they're) messing up rsb to fair-de-well (first time I've ever tried to spell that, it must be wrong). Well, just like you pay a certain price to be in a free society, you pay a certain price to participate in an unmonitored NG.
Yeah...it used to be an absolute gem for information, but now you spend so much time sifting through all the trival, that it hardly seems worth it anymore, unless you're doing a direct search through the archives.
I was never a big poster there anyway...I have found it much friendlier here.

Don't know if you want to Troy. I had a fellow CCB poster email me that i"m getting trashed over at RSB and I've never, ever, posted there. I checked it out and sure enough, someone is slinging a pile of crap about me and others.
I really don't think you want to go there. I just did, and wished I hadn't. I very rarely post there, but I just read something that flipped a switch in my meno-postal brain, and I just came unglued. Not proud of myself or the posted reply, but the remark was so utterly abhorrent, it just had to be addressed.

From time to time, I think we've all lost our cool somewhere. I blew my stack on ASP back when Florida was trying to figure out who the next President was going to be! Since that time, when something pisses me off, I write the post but don't post it. I put it in my Outbox. I wait an hour or two, then re-read it to see if I still feel that strongly about it. If I do, I post it. I also try to remember that anything I post or email will be around long after I'm gone! Nothing you said in your reaction over there was anywhere near as bad as the back and forth bickering and name calling that has been so prevalent lately.
RSB for the most part, if you check back in Google, has been largely on topic, very imformative, and for the most part, inhabited by folks who sincerely love pool.
Thanks BobJ and Smorg. I am not generally one to just 'go-off'. But I just found that particular remark so appalling that I just could not help myself. Being one of those 'try and see the good' kinda people, I just cannot understand how some can develop so much hatred....over such trivial crap. It was just callous beyond belief.

Doug, good luck with the poker
I guess I'll have to take up poker too since I can't eat the appersnas anymore. Hope you're feeling all right Doug, I can't tell you how much exercise has helped me with my heart problems. I go to the gym five days a week, but still eat to much, but holding my own with the health problems and the weight. Give it a try, it's not bullshit, the exercise really works to lower your blood pressure, and I got rid omy my diabetes which I had the previous 10 years......Gerald

Troy said:Well Dave, now I just gotta know. Please give me the web addy. Thanks.
Troy...~~~ Curiosity killed the cat, satisfaction brought it back...
Troy,
Check your private messages, I went in to some detail about how to access rsb.

They tell me that is Fast Larry using an alias who is bad mouthing you, but I don't know that as a fact.
Steve Ellis said:
I'm not sure who Dave is, but Fast Larry has been spamming RSB for the last week or two. Most of it is nonsensical shit involving names that I've never seen on RSB before. Supposedly he's done it elsewhere, including here. Is this really supposed to be Fast Larry Grindinger, or whatever his name is? If that's really him, that would almost be enough to make me ashamed of my Schuler cues, since the last I heard, that's what he was using. Why would someone dependant on the industry for a living say the kind of crap he's been spewing?
(Actually, nothing will make me ashamed of my Schulers! RIP Ray!)

Dave,
I just glanced at RSB. Apparently FL wants to meet you in the parking lot at the US Open with guns, knives, or fists
. Interesting since to my recollection you have never mentioned his name in any way, shape, or form and have never responded to any of his idiotic diatribes.
Don't worry, I got your back

Lisa,
Don't forget many people on the usenet (all newsgroups not just rsb) post outragious (sp?) things just to set people off. I think they are the same people who toppled gravestones over when they were kids.
