I mean what I say, and I do what I say.

You messed with the wrong dude.

An Ad hominem attack is when you attack someone personally INSTEAD of his ideas. You have perfected that art.

I attacked your character directly because that is where the problem lies and where my claims lay (i.e you are a liar)

You have NEVER come back and refuted a claim based on counter-evidence. You have only come back with Ad hominem attacks and making snide innuendo remarks about my lack of formal education and other irrelevant bullshit.

So when I say you are a piece of shit, that is NOT an Ad hominem attack, because it YOU who I am talking about, and it is YOU I am making a claim about.

But don’t fret. Any ‘new’ person coming into this forum won’t be exposed to my rants, I’m outta here.

Hi Fred,

I was so busy with my last day at the school district for the year I forgot to post anything. Thanks for remembering! It’s amazing how time marches on and yet at times it seems like just yesterday when I was mowing his lawn for him or having him over for dinner. I think about him often.
