The thread my die but so what

Isopatch never made me a cent

and I can name several others who have

None of whom ever have displayed the abusive and thoroughly sick personality of your great
Isopatch

A man's worth has nothing to do with the size of his bank account

Incidently I have nothing but the utmost respect for you

Its difficult to debate with a person so egocentric.....if one were to debate him his first option was to put people on ignore, the second option was to publically disgrace, the third option was to call them an ankle biter. Look at his new thread he started today.......many of us are already on ignore before a chance is given.

I hope he enjoys his mountain of ytd profits, his new Beemer, and the new art and etchings. I feel I know more about Iso's personal life than I really care too.

On the other hand, you are one poster I read because you kept it down the centre and you are one very knowledgeable person. Good luck in your endeavours.

Jane

Uhhh, I quit participating on SI because of Isopatch. You and I have had this conversation privately on a couple of occasions. The fact is I have absolutely no time to babysit someone who's a paranoid schizo.

...and to think people were actually taking his investment advice?

The questions I have is why did I tolerate it for so long? Why do you protect him? Was it to preserve a chunk of SI history? Why did Larry C. start a new Strictly Drilling (without the ":")? Did he intend on guiding history into the future? Were the good old days that good? I guess my memory of it all is getting kind of sketchy because the lord knows I would of canned his ass after the first incident.

I tolerate this insanity because of you guys, I guess it was Slider's last joke on us poor chihuahuas before he finally said his last "~outta here..."

Regards,
Michael.....................................................

Btw, I loved his grand entrance this morning ... he walked right into the CFZ thread (or should I say the mouth of the dragon) he started bragging about those poor bagholders-- it had Gander spinning circles. Ha...ha...ha... IMO, all he was doing was telling us that he just doesn't give a flat f*ck what we think of him.

The man has no shame...

Roe not being an original I can say I was a longtime lurker, on SD and then SDII. Who did I look for, the three amigoes ... iso, Roebear, and Slider. Notice the names are in alphabetical order.

I lurked for so long I finally decided to participate. The reason was quite simple, the three amigoes in my opinion helped me improve my skills, not just a little but a lot. I have to give credit where credit is due.

As for others that have assisted me in my learning, some names do come to mind .... Sharp, Shack, ATA, Zeev, Larry Dudash, aj, Shack, bcrafty, Shack, skinowski, The Freep, Shack ...., missing in action moonbeam, mishedlo especially via his Brian posts, John Maderez, AA, a few others I probably missed, and Shack again. The names are in no particular order, and there are lots of Shacks in there. More on that later.

I've never made it a habit of getting into scraps, rather try to make it a habit to just leave, when I see something undesirable developing. I can fight and very well, but my conclusion is that first and foremost it always takes more than one, and second .. if I am one of the participants I am hurting myself, as much as the other guy. A board scrap makes waves, and waves are composed of energy, and energy makes currents, and well currents affect stock prices ... that is as long as the waves are confined to the charts. When the waves are taking up board space the energy is going elsewhere, and I believe in the first law of thermodynamics (only so much energy available).

Why the so many Shacks and if so why am I going to post on iso's board, as well as others, and not for example just on Shack's.

Simple, Shack has helped me with skills I need to participate in an arena in which I am comfortable, with folks I have gotten along with quite well, and with folks I intend to continue getting along with. Shack has done a good enough job that I need him less than I used to. This does mean I will not post elsewhere or not get along with others. Far from it.

So to the future and cudoes to all that have assisted me, and I hope I have gained enough in knowledge and skills to the point that I can help a few others. Passing knowledge along does give one a certain feeling of satisfaction.

A good thing to always ask is why am 'I' here. For me the primary purpose is to make money. Sure I enjoy the chitchat, but I enjoy the learning more, and maybe the making money part the most. So I follow the money, first and foremost as best I know how.

Finally I'm moving on, and think it best for all to do the same.
