What makes Tabs great? He is a man of his word.... Yes, you have to read into that to ascertain the real meaning... (most individuals cannot)

Can't be. They are spelled different.

A few generations ago you would have found him on a mule, selling snake-oil at county fairs.

U must have me confused with my Mothers second cousin removed...Larsen Engelbert, Mother always did say that I did bear a strong resemblance to him in manner and appearance...Larsen last words before they hung him were, 'You can't cheat and honest man, give a sucker and even break nor wise up a chump." With that he stepped off this mortal coil to a better place or maybe not.

NO NO NO you have it all wrong the real etymology of my nickname being TABS comes from Mother..she got tired of telling me I was throughly azz backwards all the time so she just shortened it to TABS...

ODDJOB UNO 12-15-2009 02:21 PM

Please do forgive my spelling, I am a victim of the CA educational system...and further there is positively no excuse for my haste in posting before I used the spell check feature.

Not so sure what makes Tabs great. I just know I appreciate the time he takes in posting his unique insights, opinions and wisdom.
:D

Now I admit it. Tabs, like Barry Manilow, is great.

not conceited, convinced

shouldn't that be nostatae, not nostatus?

Porsche-O-Phile 12-16-2009 12:17 AM

Gee, and all this time I thought it was his sunny disposition and positive outlook on things.

Gotta' be honest, I don't even read 99% of what he posts anymore. It's always the same old tired schtick "the world is going to hell! The end is nigh!"

Don't get me wrong - I like the guy and can appreciate his occasional attempt to get people to think, but OTOH the personal misery crusade aspect gets a little tired after about the ten millionth time of hearing how the USA is going to collapse and everyone will be eating gruel out of cracked wooden bowls as they cower in their hovels starting next Tuesday at 9:30 AM.

Yeah, times are tough. Yeah, we have problems to solve. But I'm glad there are some folks among us who have some optimism and some desire to fight on and believe that we can build a better tomorrow, not just surrender to poverty and misery 'cause some self-aggrandizing charlatan full of bluster on a Porsche BBS (other than me... ;) ) said so.

I'm glad to see most here take his stuff with a grain of salt and that dear old Tabs is starting to not take himself so seriously. That's probably a really good thing for everyone (including him!)

tabs 12-16-2009 09:06 AM

Dear POP

All I do is add up the numbers....what is 12T + 8T + HC + C&T= Disaster...

If the sun were shining and bright that is what the fk I would be saying..

Take a look at the list of people from Andy Grove of INTEL to Warren (Banana Republic) Buffet, to Economist at NYU..Roubini, To the Founder of the Blackstone Group (Peterson), to Nial Ferguson (historian) and Rogoff (Econ) of Harvard...Santelli at CNBC.

Or take a look at Thomas Friedman of the NYT who says the US govt erg Congress can't get er done anymore...

You want BLACK take a look at what these guys have to say...

tabs 12-16-2009 09:22 AM

U Boyz forgot the adjective Mother frequently likes to use when refering to her TABS and that is BOMBASTIC.

No one ever said that being a prophet was going to be easy....

red-beard 12-16-2009 09:44 AM

True. You know what usually happens to prophets, right?
