Matthew wrote in message <39ed018c.2602594@ne...et.com>... (...) Matthew, you seem to be unaware of one of golden rules of human life: APOLOGISE FOR BEING RUDE.

  Re: My point.
 
(...) Well that's kinda cool, cheating the system that tries to cheat you. Ever work in price management for a company Todd? There are legal, as well as allowed ways of "stealing".

  The view from my living room...
 
L-O-N-G rant follows I purchased my little web box a couple years ago to learnmore about the internet... I soon found that the internet is not a place or static picture, it is a dynamic, growing, breathing entity ... sometimes more of a monster than (...)

  Re: My point.
 
(...) A couple years ago, someone in RTL was crowing one day that they had switched price tag stickers on a LEGO set at Wal*Mart and had gotten away with a steal.

  Re: blowharding (was: Re: No promises when I'll be done, but...)
 
(...) The attack wasn't an attack, try looking at what I specifically said about Jude's site and tell me how you were able to tell whether I was being sarcastically funny or being rude. The fact of the matter is that you couldn't. There was no way (...) (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
