Like I said, I am not interested and unimpressed with the whole "showman" thing. I think your plug/advertisement might be a violation of terms here, and I would not be surprised if it gets removed. Anyway, thanks for letting me know who the person in the pic actually is.

Who the heck is this guy?
it was not supposed to be a plug.
It was not supposed to be an advertisement.
It is supposed to help you EDUCATE yourself.


Tony = bad guy because he said he would take off your e-mail....but did not.
In your own words good guys do as they say.

Does that mean you are a bad guy as well
Because you are pacificcoastherpetological.com
and you are about 700 miles away from the pacific coast.

Does not really make sense does it.
 
"Does that mean you are a bad guy as well

Ritchie, your logic is flawed. And trying to say I have lied or not followed through in some way is a dum@$$ move on your part. First, I live about 385 miles from the pacific coast, and I moved here 2 and a half years ago from guess where... San Diego smart guy.

Honestly Ritchie how can you even compare the two??? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. I hope for the sake of our nation that is not you pictured in the avatar. I shudder to think of someone that iignorant actually being given a gun...
 
Gotta go with James on this one Ritchie

While i agree that starting this thread over a little reptile related spam was an over reaction, the only truly bizarre statements have been made by you in your last three posts.

James

Like i said earlier, i am sure there was no malicious intent from Tony. He is just not particularly computer savvy
 
clap clap clap clap

very good.
you caught on.
it was very stupid wasn't it?
Why in the world did I even compare the two? how stupid is that?
I must be VERY VERY dumb to even compare the two.
I must be STUPID to post about something so STUPID
You getting it yet?

This is the BOI.

Posting on someone because you are on their e-mail list is ignorant.
or
Posting on someone because you are on their e-mail list is cry-babyish .....specially if you are a 38 yo male.

Is that it?
is that all you have to offer our nation?
Is that all you have done for our nation is to hope?
What, you think because of a few words here on a forum, that I am actually stupid enough to not know who the enemy is? or maybe that I know nothing about gun safety? or maybe I will shoot my own soldiers?
What have YOU done for our nation, that you can sit there and mock my ten plus (10+) years of service?
I'll tell you what you have done. You have been a back seat driver. You have been one of those people that have been critical of our soldiers. Instead of doing your part, or at the very least "supporting our soldiers", you are one of those people who mock our soldiers thinking this war was all their fault, meanwhile not knowing that they only follow orders. You have been like those protesters in front of the base cursing out soldiers like me who were just freakin doing their jobs and trying to support their families. You are like one of those protesters who egged my car just because i was on my freakin way too work. You do nothing to protect this country and its way of life and its constitution.......but yet you question the very manner in which I provide the aforementioned. people like you who have nothing better to do than cry, really disgust me.

Actually, I apologize.
I am not really mad at you.
I am mad at the fact that I wasted two (2) seconds of my life reading a cry baby post that I expected to see from a 13 year old and not a 38 year old.

p.s. yes that is me in the picture.
in fact here is another just for you.

Ummm Ritchie? Now you are making a large number of ASSumptions and I am beginning to wonder also if you haven't gone over the deep end.
 
Off Topic...

I just realized how sad the world has become. You are wearing a side arm, but the snake is what the majority of humans would fear the most.

Geez Ritchie.....lighten up. It most certainly isn't an issue important enough to have a stroke over.

You seem to be in rare form on several threads here the last 24 hours. It might not be a bad idea to get some sleep, have a drink...maybe a little Thorazine?
 
you guys are absolutely right.

but it is not the people here.

it is just me. I am missing the army. I have been out one month and 28 days. I have friends over there......and here I am at home sitting on my @ss doing nothing.

peace out
 
You are like one of those protesters who egged my car just because i was on my freakin way too work.
I am sure you see your share of loonies Ritchie, but I am certain 99.9% of Americans from the U.S.A. support the troops 100%!
Sorry that you have to see the worst of us.
 
Ok, Let me start off by saying that I realize that posting this thread may seem petty as I mentioned in my first post. If anyone deems it as that, I can live with that. I also realize that the continued e-mails may very well have been due to a technical error on Tony's part as some of the more civilized intelligent responders pointed out to me. I also realize that I could have just blown it off and moved on, and that is probably what I should have done. Either way, I was irritated at the time, and I felt it was a legit gripe. It is here, and if anyone wants to criticize me, I am just fine with it. I welcome all intelligent feedback weather it is in support or Tony.

Ritchie, I did not think anyone could top Neil's stupid posts, but congrats, you did. I must have somehow missed this one though!

"I know I have not been around here in a while......"

Yes, and it has been nice.

"BUT D@MN what has happened to this place."

Oh, please tell us all how this site has gone downhill in your absence.

"Don't know who started thread....."

Can't you read? My name is right there on the bottom of the post.

"don't care either"

Good for you. You also do not seem to care if you come off looking like an idiot either.

"all I know is it is someone who says they are 38"

Well smart guy at least you were able to retain something.

"only got one word. WAAA"

Your writing skills seem to be lacking as well. "WAAA" is not a word. I assume you are trying to express disbelief in regard to my age in association to this thread. I have to tell you that I find that very Ironic coming from a 34 year old guy that refers to himself as the "Love Bombing Ferret". It really does not get anymore juvenal than that now does it.

Ritchie, since you felt it necessary to comment on my age and my location, lets discuss people that write stupid things for their location like:

"In the shadows watching YOU" (isn't that considered stalking) or
"In the wind" (that was Bill Leverton's for a while there)

I find these type of people to be lacking in self esteem and that they want to be perceived as special in some way, a breed apart if you will. Well, I agree that you are special, just a different type of special than they intended. Instead of just simply putting down a location so that potential buyers could get a location, putting down a comment like one of these is just like saying "Look at me... Look at me... I'm so different... I'm misunderstood... I'm a rogue... I'm a rebel". In actuality it is more like pathetic.

Moving on, Ritchie, where did you come up with 700 miles from the Pacific Coast? Even Lordsburg New Mexico is only about 550 miles from the coast, and that is one state east of me. Not only do you need to brush up on your reading comprehension and spelling, but your geography needs some work as well.

"clap clap clap clap
very good.
you caught on.
it was very stupid wasn't it?"


Yes

"Why in the world did I even compare the two?"

We already established that... Because you are stupid??

"how stupid is that?"

Pretty darn stupid...

"I must be VERY VERY dumb to even compare the two."

Didn't we just cover that? Ya, it was VERY VERY dumb. Let me add that you are not helping your argument here at all.

"I must be STUPID to post about something so STUPID"

We all figured that out a little while ago, but yes I do agree with you on that.

"You getting it yet?"

Oh, I get it alright, you are obviously either nuts or drunk (or maybe both).

"This is the BOI."

Thanks for the tip.

"Posting on someone because you are on their e-mail list is ignorant."

You are welcome to your opinion for all that is worth

"Posting on someone because you are on their e-mail list is cry-babyish .....specially if you are a 38 yo male."

"is that all you have to offer our nation?"

I plan on continuing to pay my taxes.

'Is that all you have done for our nation is to hope?'

Get off your high horse solider boy. Nobody forced you to join up, so quit patting yourself on the back and tooting your horn and take somewhere else.

"What, you think because of a few words here on a forum, that I am actually stupid enough to not know who the enemy is?"

You said it not me, but to answer your question, yes I do.

"or maybe that I know nothing about gun safety?"

Again, you said it. After looking at that pic and listening to this ridicules rant, I would not be surprised...

"or maybe I will shoot my own soldiers?"

Are you drunk or high, and if so, do you drink or take drugs while on duty? If yes to both then, I think it is certainly starting to look like a real possibility. If no to the first question, then I would be even more concerned for your men.

"What have YOU done for our nation, that you can sit there and mock my ten plus (10+) years of service?"

You came at me, and now you are the one crying like a baby. Ironic isn't it?

I'll tell you what you have done. You have been a back seat driver. You have been one of those people that have been critical of our soldiers. Instead of doing your part, or at the very least "supporting our soldiers", you are one of those people who mock our soldiers thinking this war was all their fault, meanwhile not knowing that they only follow orders.

I thought you said earlier that you know nothing about me. Where in the world did you get all of that. You are just nuts. Sounds like you have a major (pardon the pun) chip on your shoulder... I support our troops. We all do, weather we like it or not (except of course, for those of us that do not pay taxes). You presumptious poor crazy fool I feel sorry for you..

"Actually, I apologize.
I am not really mad at you."


Well that is nice to know, but you could have fooled me. I find it odd that you have gone on a rampage and then apologized on the same post. You do realize it does not get posted until you actually submit it. you could have deleted it and there would have been no need to apologize, and it would have been a much shorter post.

"I am mad at the fact that I wasted two (2) seconds of my life reading a cry baby post that I expected to see from a 13 year old and not a 38 year old."

Hey wait a second didn't you just apologize? You really are crazy, and if you actually think that you were able to write those 4 posts in 2 seconds then you are even crazier than I thought.

"p.s. yes that is me in the picture."

Just great...

"in fact here is another just for you."

Ritchie, Listen, I hate to break this to you, but I am married. If you are just looking for a pat on the back from me for your military service??? Well, You are asking the wrong guy. Do us all a favor and get out and get some psychiatric help. You really do seem to need it. I am serious.

Moderators, I have a request. When I originally posted this, I did a search on Tony, but found nothing. I do not know if I did it in the wrong search box, or if I spelled his name wrong. Anyway, while surfing I came upon another Tony Cutreo thread. Would it be possible to link this to that thread? I apologize for failing to find it in the first place. Here the link to that thread. I also have a question about TOS here is Audry Price Payne's post (#17) on this thread a violation of the TOS, or am I in error.

Looks like I forgot to highlight a couple of Ritchies's comments. Well they are still in quotations... Sorry folks.
 
It appears that the 10th anniversary of the Tampa Show will go on as scheduled. These shows seem to to be growing and get better each passing year. The Red Roof Inn as well as the Hardrock Cafe are now taking reservations for the show. I spoke to Tony recently and it is true that he sold the Raleigh Show to the the fine folks (Alex Russell) of Gila Productions. He stated that he currently has no plans to sell the Col SC show and his website has it scheduled for Jan 06. Not to kick a dead horse but Tony's time constraints preclude him from seeing most email and he has a paid service that handles the newsletters and bulk vendor mailings/solicitations. I do not believe that he would deliberately spend his time soliciting vendors who have expressed a desire to be deleted from his listings. I do agree that spam van be very annoying. On a lighter note it is better to be looked over than overlooked. Best regards to all.
