  Re: Pastel = Profit (Was Re: 2000 Dealer catalogue Removal Request Backfire?)
 
(...) Well, it was apparantly an error on somebody's part, because the pics and links are gone. Honest curiosity, how does that affect the 'public info' thing? I mean, I agree with most of the people around here, that if information is on the public (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) "If you don't want me to drive away in your car, don't leave it in the parking lot." 8^) All in fun, Dave! (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Pastel = Profit (Was Re: 2000 Dealer catalogue Removal Request Backfire?)
 
Yep, and I'll respect that statement. But I certainly WON'T agree with it. Putting pics on an open website and then saying "hey don't look at those" is NOT the way to run a website. Don't put them there in the first place, if you don't want them (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.general)

  Re: Ponte Vecchio - Elevated Road Bridge Over Rail
 
(...) Huh. Well, it's entirely possible that the walkway once connected the Uffizi to Pitti. I mean, certainly the Machiavelli had enough money to throw at it to get it accomplished. It seems a little absurd, but certainly physically possible, and I (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Taxes from Lego auctions?
 
(...) Ayup! I guess I couldn't be troubled to check for mistakes in the middle of a rant. Thanks for catching that. Chris (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Ponte Vecchio - Elevated Road Bridge Over Rail
 
(...) Eric, I'm not sure about whether or not the passageway is walkable from the Uffizi to the Pitti palaces, (partly because I've never been to Florence) but I have a large book on sights in Florence, and it show an arial view of the old town.

  Re: Taxes from Lego auctions?
 
(...) I think that's quite a bit more extremest than the original statement, but in essense, yes. If it came down to you paying $3.50 or being put in jail for 5 to 10 years, I'd hope you'd pay the $3.50, because it really ISN'T worth the trouble of (...)

  Re: Taxes from Lego auctions?
 
(...) Boy, I know some people express some extreme positions, but this one takes the cake! VBG. I assume you meant: "At least most CPAs are NOT actively engaged in murder." (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Taxes from Lego auctions?
 
(...) Am I right in taking what you are saying as: "technically, you may have the right to evade taxes, but you'll get in trouble and it's really much easier if you just go with the flow. After all, the government slowly stripping away freedoms (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

[F-UP to .debate, not that this is much of a debate, but it is o-t, and not shopping, and .debate was already on the list.] (...) Got a reference for that?

  Re: Meijers in Grand Rapids
 
Thanks for that ref. notice how it claims the American Horse is a second cast. Incorrect. It is as if you took two sets and mingled the pieces, then reassembled them. Not possible to say which set was first and what set was second any longer. (each (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.market.shopping)
