Ed Braaten (Thomison) Flying W Reptiles

you read the facts.

If he didn't, then why isn't he on here defending himself?

Back to the psych ward,
Jody Barnes

You just did a great job of making yourself look like a freaking asshole. You had no reason to level an insult, but you did so without provocation. You are a sorry piece of crap, and if you can't do any better than that, you kiss my a$$

Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year to you and yours

and responded.

You pretty much made my point for me. Take legal action, follow through with it, and get your money back. The way you chose to act, well, maybe it would have been in everyone's best interest if the law would have caught up with you.

Jody, you went wrong on two accounts here. Not saying you shouldn't have traveled to the guys house, because I'm guilty of doing just such a thing myself. But you should have called the Sheriff first, as an escort and witness to the entire thing. This would have covered your butt. Being a cop at one time, seems you woulda thought about that one.

Second place you went wrong is filing the civil suite in Texas. If you are going to take someone to court for a law suite, you need to take them to court in the state they have monetary value in. If you had succeeded in getting him to a court in Texas, and he proved he had no valuable assets in Texas, the ruling would have been $0, and zero snakes almost guaranteed. You need to initiate the suite in the state he resides, works, banks, etc.


Just FYI for future.

And here we go again. Jody. David made the same observation that I and a number of other folks have made. Your behaviour, both at Ed's and on this site, have made you look dangerously unstable and somewhat psychotic. Every time someone points that out you lose your mind again and start ranting. All that does is validate what was said about you.

You need to learn the difference between an observation based on evidence and an insult. No one has insulted you here. They have simply made observations, albeit somewhat blunt and unforgiving ones, based on your actions.

As I stated before after that delightful and profane Email you sent me a couple of weeks ago, seek help. Anger management would be a great start.

That said, it would be nice to hear a straight answer from Ed on the $700. Jody being a few cents short of a dollar does not in any way excuse the debt.

Ed has been here in the last few days too. Apparently, he has nothing to say. That silence is speaking volumes ED.

I can show you cell phone records where I contacted the Sheriff's Office a week before I went to Ed's house. I was told it was a civil matter and that if I wanted anything done about it, that I would have to take care of it myself. The Sheriff's Office refused to assist me before any of the other events took place, including the phone calls I made to Ed.

Did you specifically ask for an escort? I just went through something similar in AZ in '06. It's sorta hard to believe they refused you an escort, especially coming in from out of town. Most any law enforcement agency will do it, rather than deal with a potential bad situation. It's their JOB after all.


Anyway, sorry to hear it.

Merry Christmas to all!
Rick
