I don't normally post PMs, and I am beginning to see why a lot of people turn off the PM feature, but I am compelled to entertain on this thread, as it is amusing to read everyone's posts.
After my moron post, I get a PM from CP (CP is way too serious):
****************************************************************** To: Jack Colton From: Coffee_Pot Tuesday, Jan 19 1999 3:28PM ET
great timing on joining the DGIV loser group....you fit in well
dumb @ss hahahaha *******************************************************************
To which I reply:
******************************************************************* To: Coffee_Pot (who wrote...) From: Jack Colton Tuesday, Jan 19 1999 3:39PM ET
Thanks... I have not been following it too closely, but I had been trying to think of something clever to say. I don't know who's who yet, or if there are any agendas.
Again, thanks. It's a privilege to be so honored by you. I hope your investments do well also.

And then I get another where CP is cut and pasting me from another board:

For Good reason... The lost their a lot of money in 4Q98. Press announcements since then don't indicate a lot has changed...
what the h_ll is this.....Dumb @ss
*******************************************************************
And all I have to say is:
Dear Mr. CP,
The "The" in the above post represents a sticking keyboard. It should read "They." I was discussing a company that someone had just asked me a question about, and I had never heard of the company before, so I was giving a 30 second analysis of the company.
Furthermore, I am sorry if I have upset you with my translation of your previous post. It was done for fun, nothing personal was intended. I don't know you, nor have I even looked at your profile. There is an automatic way to translate text into Elmer Fudd, Redneck, Swedish Chef, Jive and a couple of other dialects on rinkworks.com .
I suggest you cut and paste my message, and drop it into the dialectizer, and have some fun. Life's too short to go around carrying a grudge. Please quit sending me PMs as a form of bashing me, and you should not sign as Dumb @ss - I am sure there is smart in you somewhere.
Best wishes,
jc
