Re: Where is T-bone?
it went a little far i think
Yes, I agree
I think there's already enough crap happening in the world that extra *&#! like this just makes it less fun and harder to keep going.
I just talked with my neighbor.... he's REALLY big into snow machines.... 800cc and higher sleds that make sick HP. He's parting out his 2009 Polaris 800cc xxx whatever-the-name-is because he can get more money to put towards his next 2010 1000cc whatever it is.... he's the greatest guy in the world.... even though I'm sure there are some guys out there calling him a d*&k for doing it.... sure, it's not the same as parting out a Sy or a Ty, but same philosophy.
It seems that a lot of the details concerning the goings on on forums like this are semi-secret because a lot of stuff is done via phone calls, emails, etc. If someone has done something categorically, morally wrong then fine, call them out for it and let them respond (but you'd better do it to their face first!). But if someone is being lambasted just because of a personal grudge, testosterone overload, 'I think you slept with my wife' sort of thing, then it should be kept to PMs, emails, etc. ..... otherwise it's slander, and just wrong.
Sometimes I wonder if people really know what it means anymore to be a 'gentleman'.... there's a certain moral fiber associated with having he honor to be called such.....
.... and why am I on such a f'ing rant tonight?? Because my Uncle, who served a tour in the Korean War and two tours in Vietnam passed away this week - 75 years young, a real Gentleman, and taken WAY before his time.... he was a decorated hero, and reminds me that life is too short for all the BS that people stir up just to try and get a 'rise' out of someone... or to get even.... ARGGHHHHH!
