I see you're back, full-fledged -- no longer that freak, transgender backpacker/outdoorsperson called ProcterSue.

What gives with the powers that be on "the other side??"

Prosecutor banned? No way, He has never made my my ignore list. Well, almost once, but he's OK.

I got my North Star yesterday and was pleasantly suprised to see that he had an artical for one of his trail meals. There was a little mention about TC and how it was the oldest and most popular cook off in the land (hear that, BP Mag?!?!). The meal sounds yummy and I plan on trying it!

Good job, Ed!

He was banned on backpacker. As of yesterday, he's back, still sparring with bp2go. LOL!

Backin the day it was beer. buck a six pack. Pure crap, but great to a teenager with only $1.75 (.75 being for 3 gallons of gas).

Ruby - It's the quarterly matg that is put out by the North Country Trail Assoc. Being a member (well, I've been called worse!), I get this mag and it talks about some of the things the org is up to, such as trail maintaniece, bills in congress, etc. For the most part, I like it, but I can't help but fall asleep whiel reading it. Maybe it's the fumes from the ink?

I'm kidding. If your not a member and would like to help support thge trail system, there is a sponsered membership that will allow you to join at a discounted rate of 18 bucks. It's well worth it. One of the bennies I get is a discount on a rate to stay at the NCT School House in White Cloud. Plus, you can give your tme for trail maint, by joining one of the many chapters. Tarabull, LeSubtil and myself are part of the Titawasse Chapter, which trail responibilies include the Jordan River Pathway. They're a great group of people.

Check out http://www.northcountrytrail.org/index.htm for more details.

PS - I'm sure that there are plenty here that would sponser you if you wanted to join.

lizs, does anyone on this side care if he was banned and let back in on the other side.
He hardly ever posted over here to start with. Not sure why it was made such a big deal in the first place.

Then why not email him?

I'm reading this thread because I saw his thing in the North Star.

And I'll ask, Who do you think would care?

Is this really that "news worthy"?

We already know that BP mag and the board over there is crap, should we waste our time circle jerking the point?

Cripes!

Good point, Snake. I hate it when I'm behind some of those on the road.

Move on, there's more death to be seen on the TV when you get home.

I can't understand that mentality. Clog up the road just to see someones guts on the ground. It really sez a lot about us as a culture..

LOL, Snake Eyes, oh "younger brother" of mine. ;-)

Laqtis, I see lots of threads on here addressed to people. Didn't know it was against the law to do that.

You don't care? Don't read it. Lots of threads addressed to specific people have no interest to others.

And do others care? Some do. Many don't. Read it and move on if you don't.

lizs, why did I read this thread, well because I tend to read 90% of the threads on here to some degree. But I also knew I was going to have my comment about it like I did when the first thread came out about him being banned. I stated my thoughts on it then and I did the same this time.

Just so you know this will be in the 10% that I don't read now. So if you want to slam me go ahead. I won't know a thing about it. No great loss anyway.

Okay, okay, I got it. An email would have been more like a private trip thing and posting here is more analagous to inviting the whole group...I'm going to get in trouble yet.

Good point, lizs. It not against the law.

I guess this one, and your other threads started against BP mag, is on the same level as the Poli threads that are posted to create a "stir", if you will. Just like if one has a problem or an agenda with the Government, a person who has an agenda or a problem with a company should discuss it.

Isn't he still a transgender freak when he posts over here? Why should that change? Oh wait, I'm hiking with him in September (hear that Stikmon?)and now I'm in dubbl trubbl.

Llizs
Sorry, I love you, but I feel you're off base on this.

1. Your string did not say anything like: "Attention, Prosecutor." It appears to more of a general statement.

2. Since you have already seen him posting on the other side, you could have posted "your message" to him over there(Or are you banned?). It appears that you wanted to call attention to this new development to the general population here on TT.

I say "screw it" and I've stated my feelings previously. Things over there should stay over there.

Of course, there's the other all-time classic chapeau-inspired line...

"Beaver lost his baseball cap?? Let Me Slit My Wrist!!"

But who was the comic?? He was on an HBO stand-up comedians thing back in the 80s... some guy they said was like a Boston institution, practically (pre Steven Wright). Skinny older guy with wiry brown hair.... Never really made the big-time, but...

"Nevermind the typhoon that struck Bangladesh or the people starving in Ethiopia.... Beaver Can't Find His Baseball Cap!!"

YIKES!! Why would anyone ban Prosecutor? I wouldn't know because I don't read most threads anymore, particularly, the political threads. I've met him and I think he's wonderful! He is a great host, fantastic chef and an engaging story teller. He has an impish grin with devilry dancing behind his eyes. He's fun! You people take some things too seriously. Lighten' up!

StoveStomper, the owners were engaged in anticipatory retaliation over their fear I would expose their corporate policy condoning racial slurs in approved official correspondences.

But the fact remains that inconsistent, arbitrary and capricious actions by management on the other side is not news.

So let me understand this. You think this thread is irrelevent and a waste? How is this thread any less enlightening than "Ewker: Sleepiest person on TT?"

I'm not making a negative judgment on the releveance of either thread. I kind of like the mindless chatter on a backpacking board actually. But come on, all are free to post just about whatever they want. If it doesn't interest you, Ewker, I don't understand why a dig to prosecutor or lizs was necessary. Unless there's something more going on between the two of you of which I am not aware.

Come on, can't we all just get along?
