I can't really remember if he ever took the bet or not.


From what I read, he didn't.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('MD', 'S')till strange. Gid/Cash ole buddy if you do peek in and see this: You are a Strange Bird!

Beyond strange. Some of the stuff he posted as Gideon was bizarre. He apparently has some sort of discipline fetish. He'd go on and on about it.

There is a credit crisis - banks don;t give people money, people don;t have money to buy useless stuff , economy falls.
The crazy thing is :
People give newly created money (yes people should be the only ones with this power) to the banks to "Save" them so they can keep borrowing at interest :)
Why do they the people need the middle man the banks ? Because they control everything, and in fact is not the people who have created the money , the banks did it , they saved themselves from drowning by "pulling themselves by the hair" and placed the debt on the people. They own everything

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Plantagenet', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Pops', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Specop_007', 'I')f the elections are not held I'll betchya he comes back, if for only one post.

Since you bring up the same situation Roc and I talked about last, I'll offer the same bet to you which I did to him; I'm sure you know my wager.

Either I'll post no more or you (and any IP close to yours) won't.

In fact I'll offer it to anyone: if there are no elections on 11.4.08, on 11.5.08 anyone who takes my bet can have free run of my account here for as long as they can - just send me a PM before election day and I'll send you my password on the 5th if I lose.

If I win then you lose here.

Talk is cheap, tapping nonsense into the ether is less than cheap and I think talking crap into the ether to stroke ones own fantasies at the expense of those looking for a little honesty and perspective is worse.


I'm way outside the CoC but I'd ask:

Any takers or are you just talkers?


Hmmm.........Now it starts to make sense.

Rocc bet Pops that the election wouldn't happen on Nov. 4th? And Rocc was going to have to give up his account if the election happened?

Well, the election is going to happen.

Rocc was going to lose his account in a couple of weeks anyway....

Its much more dramatic for Rocc to claim he will never post again because he is going into seclusion to hide from the world's travails in his bunker, then for him to never post again because he lost his foolish bet about the elections.

I'll bet the bet with Pops is the real reason Rocc stopped posting. Rocc isn't hiding from societal collapse....

Rocc is hiding in a hole so he can welch on his bet to Pops.


Can't fool a secret agent psychiatrist, can you? My, But if you want to write books for dummies you have to name them for dummies.

HIDY HOLES for dummies would outsell hiding holes for dummies.

Yes, charlotte, there is going to be an election.
And Obam is going to be president,

And McCain can finally let his gut hang out again and take a deep breath, he didn't want to do it anyway.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('frankthetank', 'R')occ-

If you are still reading. I was talking with my sister today. She said this huge lady that she works with, her mom and her aunt are BOTH having angioplasty done. They both are on medicare at least (they may have other insurance?). I can just imagine what they look like (the lady my sister works with already had knee replacement..shes about 275 and shuffles when she walks). These people are eating themselves to death.


Good. We don't have enough food for these kinds of people anyway.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Narz', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('PenultimateManStanding', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Narz', 'Y')ou're a good guy too. So am I. Doesn't mean we always stick to our resolutions. If there's one thing I've learned in this world it's that old habits die hard.
So you think Rocc will be back? I don't but I could be wrong.

I think he'll definitely be back lurking, even if he can resist the urge to post.

Forever is a long time. Well, unless "TSHTF" next Thursday & the Net goes down forever.


No possible way, they will save the net, so they can beat you with it.
The net is the system of control that will turn everyone into slaves, it won't go down, till the PTB and the evil is dead.

'Bout 3 years from now.

I think Roccman will come back and post one more time after the elections just to admit he was wrong, otherwise I will consider him a right on guy with a wussy streak.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pinewillow', 'b')lah...

WE can see that you have posted under at least 9 different handles....

Ohhhh ooooh!!!!

I won't go into the entire list freddy, but you should come clean and tell the board all the handles you have posted under.

Unless you would rather have every IP blocked near any you have posted from...
