MrSpkr Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 Originally posted by Michael Dorosh: I guess Hiram belongs to that line of chicken-**** conformists, like my parents, who feel that the entire world is wrong, unless they eat exactly what they eat, watch what they watch on TV, and enjoy the same liesure time activities as they do. And God help anybody else who deviates from this narrowly held view of what is "normal." By all means, Hiram, do post me some photos of your house/apartment/room in your mom's house, and let me know what you consider acceptable decor. I am sure we would all be thrilled to see it. I do presume you don't live in a glass house.Ouch. If being passionate about something lets me answer people who write and ask "what did my daddy do in the war, he never told me, and I have no clue" well, go ahead and call me disturbed. I thought we were put on this planet to help each other - not to revel in such mundane matters as "getting laid" (funny the importance men of Hiram's age place on that - some people would tell you that getting into the afterlife takes priority, but hey, whatever floats your boat) or cutting other people down on internet message boards. But I guess that's up to each of us to decide.Michael, that you do such things and help keep the memory of that generation alive is admirable. You do have a passion -- albeit an unusual one -- just as many of us here have passions. My wife thinks me odd for wanting to study on the military campaigns and political campaigns of men long dead. She finds my collection of old political campaign buttons amusing. But I am the first person she recommends to lecture local history classes on the subjects. We all have our passions. Be glad you have one. Steve P.S. However, the mannekin in your living room does squeeze you past me on the "Nerd" scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the concern though. I think I'll refrain from posting pictures of my personal hovel. I still think it's odd that you would do what you do, but that is...my opinion. I still have the right/privelage on this board to post my opinion. It's your choice on how you react to my opinion. Your reaction was enjoyable though. Regarding passion, much of mine is for large hipped ladies. [ June 26, 2002, 11:06 AM: Message edited by: Hiram Sedai ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted June 26, 2002 Author Share Posted June 26, 2002 Originally posted by The_Capt: Look out the Grog has teeth!! I doubt if it matters to you Michael but my estimate of you just went up a couple of points and that is something I do not give out easily.I actually take that as an extreme compliment, Warren, thanks. Now that all the relevant parties have responded, maybe it really IS time to end with this group hug? I think we ALL live in glass houses, or we wouldn't be here as often as we are. No?

mike the wino2 Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 Panzer Leader, you're right, I should have kept this civil. Michael Dorosh later that same post... If Hiram truly, truly doesn't understand the importance of having passions - well, then there is little hope for him. He can join the work-go home-drink beer-until-unconscious school of Life You sir, have crossed the line. This was a nice, albeit quirky, post that was getting a nice head of steam built up and you have to go and insult beer drinking. :mad: What has the world come to? Can't beer drinking be a passion? In fact, what high-school-through-college-aged isn't passionate about drinking and carousing? :confused: Please continue with less beer bashing.

But I guess that's up to each of us to decide. Michael, that was simply beautiful. You're still a complete nutter, of course, but I'd be proud to stand up in any mental competency hearing and say I know you. P.S. - I think Hiram was simply having you on, lad. Like myself, of course, he can go a bit over the top, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Beman Posted June 26, 2002 Share Posted June 26, 2002 I actually take that as an extreme compliment, Warren, thanks. Now that all the relevant parties have responded, maybe it really IS time to end with this group hug? I think we ALL live in glass houses, or we wouldn't be here as often as we are. No?Uh, no thanks. After all this talk of passions and convincing women to dress in SS uniforms, I think I need some "quiet time." DjB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
