Although I've scaled back my postings on the Porch to "few if any."

I feel it's necessary to come to the defense of Tom and his tremendous positive perspective on life!

I may not always agree with his stock picks or his peculiar manner in how he communicates with the opposite sex. However, people like Tom, JW, and RR have the unique ability to lay it on the line, say what they truly believe, and live with the consequences of thier opinions! For that I have the greatest respect for them. I hope I someday can be half as confident as these men demonstrate themselves to be on a daily basis.

Often when I read the dissenting posts of the "Voltaire Bashers" It takes a mere few sentences of their post to recognize these same dissenters more than likely are the same people who at their day jobs have a million and one excuses as to why a project they participated in may have failed. Nine times out of ten failure is usually due to their inability to welcome risk.

To the dissenters I offer this bit of advice:

Sell everything you have carelessly dumped into the Stock market, march down to your corner grocery store and use those dollars to buy state Lottery tickets! You crybabies will find more satisfaction scratching the silver off of a piece of cardboard in hopes of finding gold. B-I-N-G-O!

As for me I plan to stick around, keep my mouth shut, scratch my head and balls and continue learning from past mistakes of myself and others who aren't afraid to broadcast their thoughts and take calculated risks.

My only regret of this 'Fine Porch' is that it became moderated...

Keep the coarse reviews coming, Timster
