Col. Hackworth's Opinion on Bush's Exit Strategy

“Leave it to Vile to screw up a good Gear thread in the making. ;-)”

“"But don't dish it out then put people on ignore because they hand it back to you.”

Jesus Ewker, get over it already. You were the one bltchin' about how SS was acting and now he leaves you alone and you're all hurt. Make up your mind.”

“hey Nigal phuck off will ya saying that in a nice southern tone”

“Anything over 20 years old or so. That will be the rule. Of course that sort of eliminates MSR stuff. Nothing they make would last that long.

My XGK is over 20 years old.
WAY over.”

“Sol looking over to the rest of the O-99, 123, and 8R owners ... "Hmmmmm...shall we humor this old XGK geezer and let him do the O-99 Cookoff?

Navi there is no way in hell that the plastic pump plunger on that MSR is the same one you started with. Admit it.

Still we Swede owners are a generous and magnanimous lot. Maybe you can come but only if you bring a couple of cases of Navi Ale.”

Oh, I admit it. I think the only things that are still original are the pot supports, the striker, and the fuel bottle.”

“Like my grandfathers axe.

3 new heads
5 new handles

But by golly still the original axe LOL.”

“LOL! He's an honest man. Guys for Navi fessing up I think we should invite him along. What say ye?”

“BTW Nigal, if he has me on ignore and wants to avoid me then why even respond to a partial copy and paste made by someone else.
Don't act like he is all holy or anything.

I don't have anyone except for some trolls on ignore. I don't plan on putting him or you on it either. Say what you want I will respond back. I am not going to hide behind putting people on ignore.

At least I don't go behind people's backs and email others about them. Not talking about you either.”

“Sorry Sol, Sierrapalooza will be taking all of my vacation time.
But, thanks for asking.”

“I only have a couple cut and pasters on ignore just to save a bunch of scrolling. If someone has me on ignore so be it. Who cares? I’m not going to bellyache about the lack of attention because in the end they are just some person on the internet. I especially won’t belly ache about them if I myself am more prolific at the same kind of comments I accuse them of. While I like giving my opinions my ego does not delude me into thinking it has the same value to others.”
