Hey. I see the IPMS had a house cleaning, they got rid of a lot of
deadwood and fat cats who did nothing.

Now, if they can only manage to figure out how to manage their money,
so they dont go tits up.

I wonder what ol Dave is doing now? Probably jerking off to gay porno.

Let me guess......  You're NOT an IPMS/USA member.  It took some
thought, but that's my guess.  If you are, (which I doubt seriously)
why didn't you run for office and give us the benefit of your
knowledge, expertise, and financial wisdom running the Society?  I'll
tell ya why.  Because it takes effort, time, work, a willingness to
accept responsibilty with not get one word of thanks from anyone for
the job you do!  Four things that few people in or out of the Society
are willing to give up or put up with.  It's easy to complain, defame
someone's character, and wax poetic from a keyboard in the comfort of
your home rather than working to improve the Society through action,
not hot air.  Nuff said.

Rusty, are you feeding Dopey Dennis' ego again?
Rusty White - 23 Mar 2006 17:03 GMT
Maybe, since trolls thrive on any responce to thier clap trap.
However, if you consider my response as "feeding" his ego, he'll starve
reading mine.  I get real tired of the IPMS bashing I see here so I
respond with resonable, calm dialogue.  If the dialogue degenerates
into name calling, then I know I have won the debate and the dialogue
ends.  It may not be the best way to deal with trolls, but at least I
get my point across.

Yes, I'll be there.  It's only about 5 or 6 hours from my home in
Edmond, OK.

I couldn't tell ya since I'm not from there.  I would check the
Nationals web site.  Go to the IPMS/USA web site and you'll see a link
at the top of the page.  http://ipmsusa.org/

Click on "Things to do" and you'll find more info than you care to read.

Edmond????????

Holy Dogshit, only steers and queers come from Oklahoma, and you dont
look much like a steer, so that kinda narrows it down!

You and John Burns. Now two reasons to visit Edmond.

: Maybe, since trolls thrive on any responce to thier clap trap.

    Correct.

: However, if you consider my response as "feeding" his ego, he'll starve
: reading mine.

    Wrong. Read your first sentence above.

:    It may not be the best way to deal with trolls, but at least I
: get my point across.

    Wrong. Ignoring trolls is the only way to deal with them.
  They shrivel and die of neglect when they are ignored. Or perhaps
  you haven't noticed they spew hot button issues trolling for
  a rise?
