Hang around and don't get worked up about a response. In the litle time I have been around I have typed some stupid responses and gotten chewed / flamed for it and learned. But its all in fun, and I am learning so I vote you hang around.

{Plus I'd like to see what your next car is...)

Just kidding of course, you should stay on this board!
But you can give me your nice ride.

I'm working on Wayne from a few angles. We will bring young Wayniken back from the dark side. Leave windoze he must.

Stay.. freedom of speach (along with being responsible for your acts) should be preserved even here.

As someone else said before is more about 'style' than not about 'content'.

I have been 'on-line' for a very long while (more than 20 years) and it is very difficult to communicate properly (read emotions) while typing, looking forward to a video-BBS.. any takers??

No thanks Jordi, I have a "radio" face.

Although you do tend to go to the exteme sometimes, I feel for the most part it's been refreshing having someone new here mix it up a bit.

Hang around.

If I don't want to respond to someone, then I don't. This board is kind of like TV.... If you don't like something (someone) then turn it off or change the chanel!

And use the icons/emotion thingies, if you are speaking "tongue in cheek" then indicate as much.

There have been some real loosers here (can anyone say Tabs?), and I agree with an earlier post, "you are not one of them".

Anyway, we're all just jealous of your 993.

BigB (Brian), you and I got our wires crossed once and they shorted out. But we got that straightened out easy.

I think some people post either when they are tired or have had a couple bumps and it doesn't sound like them per usual. One day they're antagonistic and sheepish the next. I'm not impuning anyone here specifically as I post on a few boards.

I'm surprised that I haven't received more criticism for OT, vagueness, missing the point, etc. The guy who catches my act the most is Wayne, mostly privately. And the thing is, he's always right. So BigB, if Wayne hasn't pounded you lately, you ain't seen nothin'. And too bad you sold the Boxster, 'cause you and I were the only Boxster posters for the most part.

john_colasante · 07-08-2002, 05:45 PM

First, definately stay. I like your posts and responses. Plus you have almost the same car as me now and I may need parts at some point.

Second, I ditto almost the same feeling as Don Plumley; whatever he said.

Supe, what kind of obnoxious bastard would have the gall to call you such a thing? Sheez.

Nostatic: Keep on rockin' in the free world, man. I'm your biggest fan. Then again, ask Zuffenhausen about my girlfriend sometime and you'll see how I can relate to you

Wayne: You host my site, dude. You're a great guy, I don't care what anyone says.

Painta:I confess. You were an easy target in the "how fast is too fast" thread. I took advantage. Bygones. Take a deep breath before you post and/or follow up. Should improve your S/N ratio and keep the dogs at bay.

You want me to post pictures of a woman lawyer? You *are* a brave man, especially when it is my arse (or other anatomical part) on the line.

Your interest is duly noted, and our customer service team is working on your request. Rest assured that nostatic.fm always strives to keep the public happy.

pwd72s · 07-08-2002, 06:55 PM

HOOT! Nostatic? I've had the unfortunate experience of having been drafted for jury duty a few times. All I'm asking that you to post pics of? What lawyers try to do whenever they argue before a jury. Well, I'll admit, they have clothes on at the time...but they do tend to think jurors all have low IQ's. Having been in a few deliberation rooms? Not so! I sat on one jury with a member who really was, literally, a rocket scientist, retired from NASA...but neither defense or prosecution knew that. Boy, did he ever educate us on the "junk science" both attorneys tried to baffle us with... I was skeptical, so after the trial, checked this juror out. He was legit. Advice to your wife? Beware of jurors...some may really be rocket scientists..

nostatic · nostatic's Garage

Yeah, but she's a unique one...she also has a Ph.D. in chemistry. I'm afraid you won't get any "junk science" from her, at least in the chemical arts. Now as to whether she uses her power for good or evil...that's an entirely different story

I suppose that does set up an interesting pictoral..."hey, what are you doing with that Ehrlenmeyer flask? My, that is a big graduated cylinder!"

I better stop now, otherwise I'll have to get Wayne to delete this thread too

Kevin Stewart · 07-08-2002, 07:04 PM

Hey I enjoy reading your post, but the other guys are right, I only post to certain people because some of the guys can lets say Be a little tart, believe me i know what your are talking about i posted and asked a questions, what i got was a smart coment followed by a answer that made no since at all, it was a page long and the guy thought he was giving a genius answer but in reality he was showing his behind, i almost posted negaitively but i read several other things by that person, and he was the same all the time, i just stay away from people like that, but hey man there is no reason to leave because some of these guys show thier real A$$, anyway hang around, Kevin

Bravo · Bravo's Garage

I am one of the lurkers around here and I have to say that BigB has got nothing on Nostatic! I mean that guy has taken it enough for all of us. --- Personally I like the posts even when they start to flame because most of the people are just trying to state their case using the typed word-- Not always easy to do . Something I try to do is imagine all posts as if they were talking with me about their car. Now to me Early_S is a great example of this beacuse he is always using exclamation points-- Like listen you stupid S.O.B. the spec book says 32 degrees!!! GEEZ! ---I honestly laugh out loud at some of the posts I read. And I love it! Keep up the good work. I need all of the info I can get about these cars

Kevin,

Here's a few extra you can use: . . . . . . . . . . .

And I agree, Nostatic takes a huge amount of abuse. Of course, knowing that he has a Ph.D. J.D. for a wife - I'd guess his hide is plenty thick!

pwd72s · 07-08-2002, 07:21 PM

Hmmm...maybe Hef would be interested in a future pictorial? "Lady Lawyers"? (Shown out of their briefs?) After all, he recently did "women of ENRON"...(disclaimer...only reason I know this is that the cover girl is from Oregon, and the state's largest yellow journalism paper did a story on her.) Gawd, what can I say? nostatic? Your wife may be the brightest woman on the planet...but Senator Hillary has claimed that spot. Your wife will have to fight for the title! Anybody care to guess the Vegas odds?

nostatic · nostatic's Garage

Well if she takes over Hillary's spot, does that mean I have to get Monica to wet my cigars?

I demand a recount!
