"I get the joke, it is just not funny" whilst every one

is that she laughs her butt off at dumb kid jokes.
So I endeavor to have one ready for her every time I
visit. It has become a ritual. I dare her not to laugh.
So far I am 100%.

All probabilities are 50%. Either a thing will happen or it won't. This
is especially true when dealing with someone you're attracted to.

*sigh* Stalkers stalk. It's what they do.


I've found that it's always folk who have something to hide who
don't respond to reasonable questions.

Why should 'our' Ken be ashamed of admitting that he's an MVP?


You have no actual interest in Ken.

You want to strike up a conversation with Ken such
as "*Why* does Winston have 29 email addresses".
In other words, you want to "pump" Ken, like a
country well, with that big pump handle.

This is why you keep asking random people to
look at some particular web pages - people who
would have no interest or knowledge of the web pages.

You expect Ken to "satisfy your fetish".

Why should he do that ?

You have a fetish.

There's nothing honorable about what you're doing.

Paul


I see you've realized what he is and what his game is. Kudos to you!

That is correct.


Yep.

You want to strike up a conversation with Ken such
as "*Why* does Winston have 29 email addresses".
In other words, you want to "pump" Ken, like a
country well, with that big pump handle.


THAT is INCORRECT.


Nope. that's an accurate statement. It can be proven by your
established usenet/email track record. Should one wish to take the
time.

This is why you keep asking random people to
look at some particular web pages - people who
would have no interest or knowledge of the web pages.

No, I don't.


Sure you do. You want his help with something. No doubt, to stalk
another. Or perhaps, a website or two?

Why should he do that ?


Because, like me, he is a granddad. UNLIKE me he never found time
to play with his son and his son's Meccano set. I have no doubt
that he regrets that now.


And here comes the insult you're so well known for providing when you
cannot obtain the false friendship you so desperately seek.

You have a fetish.


I have a firm belief that there is a small group of MVPs who have
abused the Microsoft forums for personal gain.


Always an excuse to justify your stalking, right?

There's nothing honorable about what you're doing.


Endeavouring to identify folk who are trying to cause harm to
others *IS* an honourable thing to have as an objective.


So you'll be turning yourself in for criminal computer tresspass,
stalking, harassment, willful copyright violation, etc.. When?

I deal with a lot of people in my business travels. Their biggest
issues is usually with I.T. people. Lets face it, in the
aggregate, our profession is a bunch of arrogant ass holes. One
of the things that gets me repeat customer and referrals is that I
respect my customers and do not treat them like idiots. Lets face
it, some of the things my customers do, I could never do in 1000
years. Does that make me an idiot?


Our profession? Where in the hell do you even get the impression
you're a professional technician? Seriously. You're a jake leg.

Oh, you certainly do treat them like idiots, you're taking full
advantage of them as you learn how to do basic techie things that any
real techie already knows how to do by putting his/her time in. They
paid their dues. You have yet to do so.

Now what does that have to do with harmless jags at certain
technologies/companies. Well, the user is typically
pretty upset when they call me. By listening to their
emotional responses to what happened, I am validating them.
I become a technology friend they can trust.


You're a con artist...

The harmless names are noting more than harmless names.
NO ONE in my 22 years of this has stopped using a Windows
product because I made playful fun of it. NO ONE has
been turned away from Windows because I don't like
M$'s products. But they do trust me because I do not
act like a marketing rep.


WOWA. You've been playing mr technician for 22 years and you have to
ask the sort of 'help me' questions you do here on usenet? C'mon
dude. No certs, having to ask others to explain how things work and
billing your customers for knowledge you didn't earn? You have
shyster written all over you.

Don't you think it's about time to quit trying to push your
childish lingo onto others? No one is adopting it.


Are you working for the M$ Marketing Police today? Someone ****
in your wheaties this morning? Go find your sense of humor.
A good cup of tea will help.


Do you keep using personal lingo when no one else adopts it?
Maybe that's why you're avoided at parties. You don't have the
audience size or endurance of Lewis Carroll. Neologisms work only
if you can effect change through literature or media or can
effectively influence a large audience. You've failed. Move on.

You're supposed to be a contracted consultant to customers (who
comes here to obtain help). Do you use your Franken lingo with
your customers to deliberately confuse them? Elevate your
professionalism.

Accusing someone of being a Microsoft fanboy is a last resort
inane insult. Just detracts from being professional.

Todd's generally low knowledge level and his proud
unprofessionalism make me think he's the kind of "IT guy" I
routinely have to clean up after. In a recent post he bemoaned the
lack of trust people seem to have for IT workers, somehow missing
the irony of it.


+1 I feel the same way.

And don't take too much heed in those myths about
overwriting several times. It is an urban myth. Doesn't
make a bit of difference. Just overwrite it once.

You've obviously never done professional data recovery. It's most
certainly NOT a myth. Using the proper tools, one *can* get data back
if it's overwritten (or so you thought) one time. It's a time consuming
process and requires specialized hardware (one piece being an
oscilloscope) and the knowledge to use it, but, it most certainly can
be done. You are giving very unsound advice here. I pity the fool who
has something they'd rather have not ever see the light of day taking
your advice and that drive winding up in the wrong hands. Like mine,
for example. You clearly don't understand how your computer actually
stores information or what bits actually represent. And what happens if
you don't flip them all!
