9:07 AM EST 		Darl was the designated cannon fodder from the beginning, and nobody believes a word he says. Not even his puppetmasters. I hope the paycheck was worth being a public buffoon for all those years. Maybe my values are upside-down, but I don't think any paycheck can be big enough to make it worth behaving that way.

Well, TC, i agree with you, but that's why our combined net worth is probably less than 1/10 of Darl's.

Well, that one was shot a long time ago for me. :)

Which is probably just as well, or I'd never dare to post on public fora like this.

My hope is that, when the entire law suit comes crashing down around SCOX's ears, Darl is brought up on personal charges for all the blatantly fraudulent statements he's made in the last 5 years.

Suddenly my head hurts...ow....

Let's just say that people often marvel at my agility and dexterity and leave it at that, :)

Wait...all of that "pain-killer" I've been using to get past a wicked tooth-ache (yes, I will do almost ANYTHING to avoid the dentist, including giving an abcess time to heal on its own) is starting to wear off...

Darl? Is that really you?

But, but...you're a MORON!!!!

And yet, you're rich and I'm not.

Crap.

Careful there Dino you may start envying the wrong people. Drug Dealers and Arms dealers spring to mind immediately ;-)

My advice: Get to that dentist immediately!

Nah. Abcess has healed up. Wife came closer to killing me than the tooth did, though. She shared your sentiment.

Interesting little story regarding toothaches:

In 1935, Fred and Al Key set a flight endurance record that wouldn't be broken until 1958: 653 hours aloft in an airplane. They rigged up their own refueling system and did mid-air maintenance on the engine to stay aloft.

During the flight, Al got a toothache. After 4 days, he lanced it with a needle pulling thread soaked in antibiotic that had been transferred into the plane.
