Nathan W. Collier - 17 Nov 2005 17:19 GMT
see http://inlinediesel.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=121 for pictures.

my wife had just left a stop sign and was driving approximately 30mph in a
35mph zone on a city street.  a truck pulling out of a bank parking lot
somehow "didnt see" my wife in her quad cab long bed 1 ton truck and he
t-boned her.  my wife and the kids are all fine, my son who was sitting at
the door that got directly whacked never even stopped playing his video
game.

as you can see the door is crushed, the bed is crushed, and the pillar that
goes between the back of the door and the bed is also crushed.  to say im
"angry" would be an understatement.  her truck that stickered for nearly
$45,000 has just been devalued.  when it comes time to trade or sell, carfax
will show its been wrecked and you know what that does to the value of a
vehicle.

what i really dont understand is that the highway patrolman didnt write the
driver of the other truck a ticket for anything.  it was clearly his fault,
he claimed the sun was in his eyes (although my wife had headlights on due
to dusk setting in!), he impacted her truck, yet he didnt get a ticket?  the
reason this concerns me is that im afraid this will hurt our ability to
collect from his insurance company, or does this really even matter?  i
called the highway patrol who told me that they dont determine the fault of
an accident....told me that was a misconception about their role.  is there
something different about montana law or is it that way everywhere?

im also wondering what my realistic rights are here.  the pillar between the
door and the bed cannot be replaced, and i dont want to continue making a
$700 payment on a truck thats been bondo'd.

i have an appointment to see an attorney, but am wondering now what i can
expect.  i know accidents happen but were it not for [b]his[/b] negligence
our truck wouldnt be smashed now.

Cop could have cited for a number of things, but chose not to for some
reason.

Point of impact usually tells the story. It does in your case. Your truck
was clearly more than half way through the intersection, no damage to front
fender or door.

They can put in a new panel and pillar I believe.

Each state has differnt regs. The attorney can shed more light on it.

many thanks.  this is exactly why my wife is driving a 1 ton truck instead
of the cute-ute that she originally wanted.

my insurance company said its irrelevant.  looking at the pictures and
reading the accident report, my insurance company assured me that fault is
not in question so the ticketing is apparently irrelevant.

wasnt even an intersection of streets, it was a parking lot driveway that he
came  through without stopping.

No one was injured. Why do you need an attorney?
What law did he break?
Did he run a stop sign?
Did he run a red light?
Was he speeding?
If the police did not witness any broken laws or the accident, it is
unlikely that they would issue a summons.
No one likes bondo. Unless the truck is totalled or you are willing to
sell it, get used to it.
The pillar has minimal damage that can repaired. Why do you want a new
one? Unless you are willing to pay the difference, neither insurance
company is required to replace a repairable part.
The bank won't care what condition your truck is in. They will still
want their payment. I'm pretty sure there is no bondo exclusion in your
loan agreement.
The sun is usually more of a problem at dawn and dusk. It if was noon
and the sun was overhead, the sun is a non-issue.
Sorry to sound pesimistic, but accidents happen. Your insurance company
should provide you with an attorney if there is any litigation. Why do
you have one already? You paid a premium for your insurance company's
help during an accident. Ask them these questions. There's no reason to
hire an attorney of your own.

depreciation compensation.  you ever try to tell/trade a vehicle thats been
wrecked?

> What law did he break?

failure to yield?

> Was he speeding?

speeding in what sense?  for the highway speed limit, no.  the impact
occured where the driveway meets the street, and its determined that he was
running an estimated 35 mph.  obviously he didnt stop (unless a truck with a
loaded 8-horse trailer can accelerate from 0 to 35mph in 5 feet).  i dont
drive 35 mph through bank parking lots, and dont consider it reasonable for
others to either.

> No one likes bondo. Unless the truck is totalled or you are willing to
> sell it, get used to it.

and this is why im seeking the advice of an attorney.  i will not pay for
bondo.  it didnt have bondo on it when i bought it, and im not going to
settle for it now due to HIS negligence.  why should i have to live with
bondo due to HIS negligence?

> The pillar has minimal damage that can repaired. Why do you want a new

the door and the bed can both be unbolted and replaced.  the pillar cannot
be replaced without being frankensteined.

i never said i was going to default on my loan.  i said i wasnt going to
pay for bondo.  this is why im getting an attorney.  if bondo is "no big
deal" then surely they wont mind taking the truck for themselves and
reselling it.  they can take the hit, i wont.

> You paid a premium for your insurance company's

ill certainly consider a fair depreciation offer.  otherwise ill get it
through the courts.  im not looking for unjust compensation, only realistic
loss compensation.  nobody is grabbing their neck crying whiplash or asking
for one dime of "pain & suffering" (this despite my wife is in moderate pain
in her back, but feels it will pass).  im only trying to prevent eating
depreciation due to the negligence of someone else.

my brother bought a new suburban last year.  less than a month later a car
ran a light and smacked them.  $4800 later the truck was repaired and when
he attempted to trade it, the truck was devalued an estimated 30% due to
having been wrecked.  had he gotten an attorney he could have recovered
depreciation compensation.....since he didnt, hes stuck with a truck he no
longer wants because he owes WAY more on it than it will sell for now thanks
to the negligence of someone else.  this is why im trying to protect my
interests now.  my insurance company said to let them see what they can
resolve before i seek outside counsel, but consultations are free.

If the attorney is free, then I see why you're going that route.
If you want to get reimbursed for depreciation, I'm guessing that a
litigation on your own will be the only way. I'm sure that insurance
policies have language to prevent them from having to litigate
depreciation because if they didn't, everyone involved in accidents
would be seeking depreciation compensation.
Good luck with this nightmare.

doesnt that seem reasonable?  i know accidents happen, but why should i
suffer the depreciation as a result of the negligence of someone else?  i
buy insurance to cover my f.ck-ups.....so does he.  he f.cked up, and one
way or another i wont be the one to lose out as a result.  im not worried
about frivvolous crap......just my reasonable depreciation as a direct
result of his negligence.

No............... because it is doubtful if you will have any
depreciation if any at all.  You're just pissed and making a mountain
out of a mole hill.

so you would pay just as much for a truck that had been wrecked as you would
pay for a truck that hadnt been wrecked?  sorry, i dont buy it.  if youre
shopping for a truck and find two identical trucks (its really not that hard
to do) with one having been wrecked and one not, youre going to buy the one
that hasnt been wrecked even if the repairs are perfect (assuming both
trucks are in great shape otherwise).

Nate, my father was a body and fender repair man all his life.  If the
repair is done correctly it will be just as strong if not stronger than
the original.  Instead of a pillar that is spot welded you will have one
with a continuous weld and you will not be able to find the weld.  With
todays vehicles most shops don't even use bondo.  They cut and weld in
complete new panels or replace the entire section.   Bondo is for the
back yard mechanic.  Yes, if the repair is done properly I would buy a
previously wrecked vehicle if it was the truck I was looking for.

as a welder myself, i understand what youre referencing.  what concerns me
more than the repair is the damage (and the expected depreciation that will
surely follow).

but would you buy it if it were parked beside an identical truck that hadnt
been wrecked for the same price?  when i shop for trucks (and i buy a lot of
trucks) the first thing i look at is the carfax.  if any damage at all is
listed im done looking at that truck.  regardless of condition or price, i
dont buy vehicles that have been wrecked.  i have little faith in repairs.
i hate bondo, panels dont line up or match, the paint fades at different
rates, creaks/moans, etc.

In all the previous years I have shopped and traded vehicles I have
never seen two bumper to bumper identical used vehicles sitting side by
side on a lot.  What are the odds............ and do you really think
the lot is going to mark a vehicle down even if you do use carfax, which
I don't. No they won't because they know the vehicle is just as sound as
the one that wasn't wrecked.  If you want to be concerned about repairs,
forget about the metal work.  It is the electrical and computer system
you need to worry about after a wreck.   Besides, I haven't bought a
used vehicle since 1982.

todays shopper doesnt limit his search to a single lot.  todays shopper uses
the internet (i know this as ive sold many vehicles on autotrader.com) where
he can directly compare exact vehicles.

Even if your wife thinks it will "pass", IMO, you would be a fool not
to, at the very least, document this pain by a visit to either a
doctor or the ER.

My wife got rear-ended while sitting at a stop light. It wasn't a
severe crash, but enough that she did suffer some neck pain. She
ignored it. Eventually her condition got worse and it was hell going
back to get the other driver's insurance company to pay. IIRC, she
ended up going through workman's comp insurance to cover medical
treatments. She was working at the time of the accident.

That was 23 years ago, she is still suffering from the damage done in
that tiny little accident and it's contiuned to worsen.

ouch........sorry to hear it.  youre lucky she was able to get it in under
workmans comp.  any dealings ive had with workmans comp (for my employees)
has always been like dealing with the IRS.....you can just feel their evil.

impressed at the level of damage.

So now we're talking a 35MPH impact from a, what, 20,000lb vehicle?  Either
he was going far slower than that, or you got one of the rare armor-plated
COMBATT Rams  :)

im just going by the highway patrols statements that they base on load, skid
marks, etc.  his estimated speed was 30-35 and my wifes estimated speed was
25-30 which my wife verified.

They may have been going 35 at the time they applied their brakes, but
it sure doesn't look like the damage to your vehicle was caused by a
vehicle going 35 at the time of impact!  Did they write those estimates
in their police report? That would surprise me because they don't
normally go to the expense and trouble of calculating estimated speed
unless a fatality was involved. It takes a lot more to estimate speed
than just measuring skid marks. For an actual assessment they need to
weigh the load, check the brakes on the tow vehicle and trailer, measure
the tread, take tire samples, check the air pressure in the tires, check
the air temperature, humidity, and check the friction quotient of the
asphalt or driveway surface if they want it to hold up in court. They
don't normally do that for fender-benders.
Of course nowadays they would just get a search warrant in a fatality
case and obtain the actual speed from the vehicle computer.

i dont know, it will be 10 days before i can access the report.  the
30-35mph estimate was given to me by the highway patrolman over the phone.

You're absolutely correct.  A unloaded 1/2 ton truck traveling 20 mph
will skid approximately 25 feet in a panic stop.  If this truck had a
trailer hooked to it then skid marks will tell absolutely nothing as far
as his actual speed.  Especially if he only had a few feet to skid
anyways from a parking lot entrance into the traffic lane.  Tom pointed
that out in his first post but decided to change his tune when it was
time for lets f.ck with Tbone again.  With my truck I have a dead spot
on the passenger side from the side mirror and several times I have
almost pulled out in front of someone when the timing was just right.
It could be just what it is....... a accident and calling the other guy

thing some of you people are interested in here is just another stupid

Indeed, grow up Jerry. As usual you, among others, overstate the amount that
I post on this newsgroup. Secondly, I posted in reply to someone who
obviously had no idea of how things might actually be. Third, Nate has
genuine concerns, and whether you believe them to be logical or not, its
clear your reply (just making a mountain out of a molehill?) was meant to
stir things up, not help him with his concerns.

If you are going to bitch at somone for behaving a certain way, its best to
be sure you don't do exactly what you are complaining about.

You don't see me jumping into threads posting bullshit that I know is

And ya don't see me doing that on a constant basis either. Yet, as you
complain about it, here you are, bitching again about something that is so
insignificant as to be a "mountain out of a mole hill."

More bullshit. You have a vivid imagination, or just don't really read that
much.

I disagree, and thats why I posted. While you are correct in some of what
you say, you forget that the general buying public doesn't know all that you
know. As such, it is legitimate for Nate to be concerned about resale value.
In fact, its an astute businessman that not only knows about it, but covers
his a.s on such matters.

while i don't necessarily disagree with some of what you have said
jerry, for crying out loud, that is exactloy what you did here and
what you have doing lately when you decide to post.  you jump in and
post bullshit that is only going to stir things up again.  if you slow
down a bit, and relax, you'd be able to see that nate was pissed and
wanted some other people's opinion of what happened.  some gave good
advise and some went off on the holy grail route.  

doesn't seem like all that big a deal really.

and for tbone and max, that does get a little old, but it just seems
to be their calling.  i try to stay out of that.  max really does like
to bait tom, and tom has the rare ability to constantly jump into
areas where he has no knowledge and tell people what to do.  tom
pretty much ends up in the sh.t with everyone.  he has some good
advise if he would just learn to stay in areas that he knows what he
is talking about, he would do much better.  i am pretty sure that he
is on a few other forums that i read (that is why i keep asking if he
is t_bone from arizona) because the comments are so similar and he
ends up in the sh.t with everpyone there too.  

it is interesting though that the onlly time i see you here anymore is
when you blast in all pissed off, pitching sh.t on people, because
they pitched sh.t on people.  

just saying jerry.

as in most of the times Nate had already made up his mind and was merely
venting steam.  I simply thought he was making the issue larger than it
needed to be.

Max is a bonafide f.cking a.shole, always has been and always will be.
If he isn't crying about something in his personal life he is engaged in

I'm sure will say otherwise, and hopefully, you'll never know that I'm not.
I get the distinct inpression that having you call me a f.cking a.shole,
among other things, is a an honor not to be taken lightly. In other words,

Exactly what have I "cried" about in my personal life? Ya know, this is just
one more in a long string of crap you've posted making claims that you can't
substantiate.

> stretching out long pissing threads.

Yeah, long pissing threads to which you delight in adding posts. You just
don't get it. This place is not only a good resource for some kinds of info,
but also amusement. The more crap you post, the more amusing you become.

I don't need the last word. In fact, I think its funny that you feel the
need to have it. See, if you keep replying, I've reached my goal. Feel free
to reply to this as well. If you post something that leads me to believe
another verbal poke in the ribs will get you going again, I'll probably do
it. See, the reality is, I'd like for YOU to have the last word.

Go ahead Jerry, prove either that you are a decent gentleman, and shut up.
Or post again, and reaffirm your ability to post stuff that just isn't
grounded in reality.

My way out is to stop yanking your chain. You are the one that locked
yourself into making sure I didn't get the last word. I told you to go ahead
and take it, or to just stop posting, but you are determined to make sure I
don't get the last word. So now, if you don't answer, you look like the fool
(at least in your mind), because I'll have beaten you at YOUR game by
getting the last word. And if you do answer, I just poke ya again, and the
game goes on.

Thats right Jerry, you are so smart, you created your very own "Catch 22",
and put yourself in the middle. Hell, I thought you were smarter than that,
but thats the way it goes.

But no one else cares if you answer or not. Not even me. I think its amusing
that you've caught yourself in this little spin. The only one that will
think you lost if you stop replying is YOU.... ok, so maybe Tbone will think
you lost..... and maybe some casual observers..... I dunno, maybe even they
will think you finally got wise.

But you cannot resist.....so you'll reply to keep me from "winning".

Whatever. Your turn.

No, I really don't. I have some spare time to burn while doing laundry over

Jerry, I don't give a damn what you think of me, nor do I figure what anyone
else on here thinks of me matters too much. Ok, maybe there are a couple,

Really? Why is it we could look up your record on almost any NG search and
find that you post at least monthly? And if you stopped, why is it I've been
able to get you to post not only several times, but almost everytime I've
posted. Jerry, if you stopped posting, you would have stopped. I hate to

Really? wow.... I wasn't aware my world was so cramped..... what makes it so
cramped? Do I need counseling?

Wow, another chapter of my life I was apparently unaware of, please tell me
more, and point to a source. I'm intrigued that I was fired as a teacher,
since I don't recall that happening. See Jerry, the more you type, the more
you make stuff up, and the more you look silly. Remember, you need proof
that I was fired as a teacher.

Tom Lawrence - 20 Nov 2005 06:17 GMT
> Tom pointed  that out in his first post

Yes, I did - because the way it was worded ("the accident occurred where the
driveway meets the street, and it's determined that he was running an
estimated 35MPH") sounded like it was determined to be a 35MPH impact.

> but decided to change his tune when it was  time for lets f.ck with Tbone
> again.

No - I changed my tune (if you want to call it that) when Nate clarified
that the HP officer stated (on a phone call - meaning he had time to do some
analysis) the initial speed was estimated at 30-35MPH based on the load of
the truck and the length of the skid marks.  My problem with T-Bone was his
statements to the effect of, "you can't place blame on the other driver,
because you weren't there, so you don't know what happened".  Unless Nate's
lying about the details of the accident location (highly unlikely), or lying
about the statements the Highway Patrol made to him (again, pretty
unlikely), it's hard to imagine a scenario where the other driver ISN'T at
fault.

> With my truck I have a dead spot on the passenger side from the side
> mirror and several times I have almost pulled out in front of someone when
> the timing was just right.

As have I.  But - have you ever pulled into oncoming traffic from a parking
lot at 30+ MPH?  That's the part that categorizes the other driver as a
"moron".  Add in the part about the fully loaded horse trailer, and it's
even more puzzling why a reckless (let alone careless) driving citation
wasn't issued.  Putting myself in that situation, I can't imagine a scenario
where I don't pull to the end of the driveway, and either come to a stop, or
at least a creep, look, and then pull out.  Even if I don't see the oncoming
truck, no WAY am I pulling out onto the road fast enough to impact the side
of the truck that much.

Nate - can you take some pics of the area that this happened (if you haven't
already?)
Jerry - 20 Nov 2005 07:02 GMT
 >
> As have I.  But - have you ever pulled into oncoming traffic from a parking
> lot at 30+ MPH?

No I haven't and common sense tells you that wouldn't be a easy thing to
do coming out of a parking lot making a 90 degree turn pulling a horse
trailer..... and if he hit her broadside he never even got into the
turn.......think about it.

>  That's the part that categorizes the other driver as a
> "moron".

If it were true.... but my experience is people with horses, assuming he
had any aboard are very cautious in how they turn and brake and even
when there are no animals aboard they seem to drive in the same manner
with their trailer.  There is to much missing from this story to make a
judgment like this.

>  Add in the part about the fully loaded horse trailer, and it's
> even more puzzling why a reckless (let alone careless) driving citation
> wasn't issued.

Maybe because it was not the situation as described and no I'm not
calling Nate a liar but he could have his information all turned around.
  You know the Police officer could have been flat wrong. Just how long
do you think skid marks would be with the 20,000 pound total weight at
35 mph you mentioned?  I'd say a good 50-60 feet and to me that would
mean he skidded all the way across the highway into the parking lot
across the street  before making contact, unless of course the trailer
had brakes, locked up and over lapped the truck marks??.  Come on Tom,
use some logical thinking here.

> Putting myself in that situation, I can't imagine a scenario

Me either which leads me to think he probable never braked at all until
just before impact which would result is the damage that resulted
because of the force from the weight of his vehicle and load.  It still
places the fault with the driver of the other vehicle but a moron it
does not make without better information.  Most states believe it or not
usually have a speed limit of 10 mph in parking lots and certain
residential zones where there are children, at least the one's I've
lived in so why wasn't he issued a citation for speeding......maybe
because he wasn't going that fast?

not a 90 degree turn at all.  there is a one way driveway coming in, and and
a one way driveway going out, both are angled.  if it will make a difference

Thought you said she (your wife) was on the street and the other driver
was coming out of a parking lot.  Doesn't he have to turn left or right?
 If it was a angled collision then it could be even easier for the
truck and trailer not to see on coming traffic properly or make a
misjudgment in speed and flow, especially if he was under the impression
your wife was getting ready to enter the parking lot.   Sounds like it
was what it probable is...... a accident.

Yup, sounds like it was an accident, it was the other guy's fault, and that
Nate has legitimate concerns.

Just keep proving me correct Jerry, its amusing that way. Even more
interesting that the people you attacked in your rant can both justify what

much you think we post, and why you think we post.

sorry, i dont buy it.  every day hundreds of people use that same driveway
and they have the sense to know when to stop.  it doesnt matte anyway, youre
still supposed to stop when traffic is coming.

well i know he didnt do it on purpose, but it was still due to his
negligence.  an "accident" to me is swerving to miss a dog and hitting
another car.  choosing not to stop before exiting a parking lot onto a very
busy city street is negligent at best.

Bullshit......... the local WalMart where I live has no stop sign or a
painted stop on the pavement at their exit before the street and I exit
there all the time without stopping first.  Why should I.... there is a
clear view of traffic at least a 100 feet in both direction before even
getting to the exit and that view is 500-600 feet on both sides of the
road. So if there is no traffic for several hundred feet on the road
before the exit why should anyone stop.  I doubt there is a single
person around this NG that has never done the same thing.  It doesn't
really matter Nate and like I said before I understand your frustration
and right to be mad because your truck has been wrecked but you're
picking at straws now.

read what i said again.  i said choosing not to stop before exiting a
parking lot onto a VERY BUSY city street.  if nothing is coming there is no
reason to stop, but this street in question is very busy.  its the only
street in and out of a residential area with thousands of residents.  my
wife said there were cars directly in front of her and directly behind her.
its wasnt an issue of would he hit a car, so much as which car would he hit.
now i wasnt there to see this, but i trust fully in what my wife tells me.
this is an issue of negligence at best.

Then we will just have to disagree Nate.  There are times when a slow
roll towards a exit and then merging into the flow of traffic is safer
than trying to build up speed from a dead stop.  If you have ever done a
lot of driving in California then you would know that is the only safe
way to move into traffic out there.  That doesn't mean you never stop
but it is not always necessary.  I wasn't there and your description of
what happened will never be crystal clear to me or anyone except to
yourself.  Thats just the nature of the beast when trying to explain
something in words that you have visioned in your mind.  Just like I did
and most likely everyone else after being involved in a accident you are
going to fume about it right up to the day you get your truck back from
the shop. After that it will just be a memory.

I'm betting one of those times isn't while the sun is in your eyes and an
7500# truck is sitting in front of you.

Yup, but Nate is in Montana.

Damn, you either? I thought from some of the responses, yours included, that
you all knew better than Nate what happened.

> and your description of what happened will never be crystal clear to me or

I think some of us got enough of it to understand that the other driver was
a fault, and Nate is justified in looking out for his interests. And get
this.... We figured that out the first time he posted.

Yeah, I'm sitting here doing bills, and I see you are answering right away
too. When I leave the desk to swap out the laundry, there will be a few
minute break. Feel free to get some coffee or a snack. But don't forget to
answer. And by golly, make damn sure you get the last word in.

Still worried about that last word maxipad.  BTW maxipad fits you very

Better get your tissue, cuz I was ALL OVER that post......

As far as teaching, I am sure I carry more credentials regarding
teaching than you could possibly imagine.

Sorry, it wasn't a rebuttal. It was a deliberate attempt to get you
pissed off and riled up. It worked splendidly.

I bet Social Studies wasn't either.

Nothing has changed in your life in the last 6 years has it
maxipad.....You're still the same dumb jerk of a a.shole as before,
except maybe that you are now having to do your own laundry.  Very
interesting going back and reading those old post and how you argued
with Roy, Sandman, Gary, Budd, and just about..... no with everyone in
the same manner as now and you used the same stupid moronic and childish
tactics in trying to have the last word.  Think you'll ever grow up
maxipad. Oh, don't worry about JPH's post.... you must have missed the
part where he said MOST states but then that is your
style......LOL.....yank,yank.yank.

Nope, never was worried about the last word Jerry. That was soemthing you
decided you weren't gonna let me have. Thats fine, but I'm gonna make you
work at it, just for the hell of it.

I guess I remember that post, barely..... it was from '99, so I figured it
was water over the dam. I never really tried to remember them all. BTW, for
you yanking my chain, you seem to have time to go on wild goose chases as
assigned by me. I'm not sure what that post proves, what were you intending
by digging it up?

You sure are obsessed by my life.... "dumb jerk of an a.shole" wow, that
would be profound, only its not profound. Its just kinda silly.  And I've
been doing my own laundry for..... 30 years? I dunno, obviously you've put
more thought into my laundry than I have.

Yeah, when I disagreed, I did argue. Hell, Budd and I have talked on the
phone, and even exchanged philosophical/theological ideas and discussion.
Gary's been a good source of info and assistance when I got stuck on things
I neversaw before. But the real thing is, I never tried to have the last
word. This time, I'm just doing it to prick you. You brought it up, you
whined about it, and you have claimed it as a prize, so I'm making you work
for it. So I'm an a.shole in your opinion. Great, I'm an a.shole thats
having an amusing time.

> Think you'll ever grow up maxipad. Oh, don't worry about JPH's post....

I grew up. See, I post rebuttals, not grade school name calling. Yeah, I
know he said most states, but I bet if you look, you'll find all states
require that you yield right of way or stop at an intersection. Feel free to
prove me wrong.

Feel free to try for the last word again. You might get it this time, its
getting late. But there is always tomorrow.

BTW, I missed that proof that I got fired as a teacher. Feel free to post
that.

Obsessed by your life...LOL... not hardly.  But a guy that can't even
hold down a teaching job and gets fired from it has a problem.  Usually
when a teacher screws up they get promoted with a pay raise. Hell even
when you tried to be a tutor the kids father fired your a.s.  Then you
come on here crying about all the jobs you we're fired from, how your
Dad's will screwed you out of , what was it a coin collection and a
stack of comic books............. all you ever do is cry, complain and
argue with everyone.  You don't really want to re-read those posts where
you cried because you couldn't have the last word or was fired from
every job you attempted do you.  Besides I'm confident everyone here
remembers them anyway.  You remind me of Cliff on Cheers.......same
situation, same jerk except he actually had a visible job and not a made
up job to try and hide his failures in life as you do.  For a guy that
has already turned 40 you haven't accomplished much in life have you.  I
see you have to respond to every single thing I mention, even laundry
and I'm sure that comment actually went over your head.......... Been
doing laundry since you were 10 years old huh......  Sorry maxipad but
you didn't grow up at all. No maxipad, I didn't challenge you to
anything.  What you are doing now is what you do in every thread and I
do mean every thread.  I'm simply pulling your chain, watching you jump
and spin like the little puppy dog you are and shamefully starting to
enjoy it. Wouldn't be surprised if when there is a little slack at the
drive up window you run home to read this.....oops.... don't want to
give that one away do we. Don't worry, I'll eventually unhook that chain
and let you outside to play in another sand box.    After all it
probable isn't fair to mommy to have to get up several times each night
and tell you to stop screaming in the dark.  But for the moment seeing
you dance and do a slow burn is a little more entertaining.

You sure seem to have made a bunch of assumptions about it and you think you

I never got fired fro ma teaching job Jerry, thats just something you made
up. I await proof otherwise.

LOL, yeah, it must seem like that to those with limited knowledge of how the
tenure system works.

Wow, thats somehting I don't recall, likely because it never happened. Feel
free to post proof of that too.

I wasn't fired from any jobs, but feel free to bring proof of your claims.

How it screwed me out of what? Jeez Jerry, ya ought to come up with some
facts before ya go posting so much crap.

> what was it a coin collection and a stack of comic books.............

I don't recall either of them being a major deal, I don't even remember the
comic books.

You really ought to get proof of this stuff Jerry.

It'd be great if someone would back your claims, but no one is.

LOL.... well using your often used tactics I don't have to prove
anything.  But if you're really interested just go back to July 21, 1999
in this very ng and you will find what you seek.

Gee maxi, how can you not recall either being a major deal and yet not

you every time.

But you just said they were not a major deal...... so they must
exist....make up your mind maxi.

> your turn

Naw..... i had already decided today that I was through with you
maxipad.  Exposing you for what your really are has some rewards I guess
but it also has the downside that I have to stoop to your level to do
it.  Very distasteful....... kind of like having to scoop the dog litter
out in the yard.  So come on back with your moronic last word that seems
to be driving you over the edge and then maybe you can get a good nights
sleep.  I'm sure mommy will enjoy no more screams in the night.  I guess
you realize by now that all anyone just has to do a google search of
news groups with the name Max340 and all your old bullshit pissing
matches pop right up.  You can run but you can't hide maxipad.  Oh BTW,
 I did find it very interesting the two names you chose to identify as
very close friends on this ng.  Very interesting indeed.  How is that
saying.... Birds of a feather......Good night Cliff....

Nate, I am glad your family and no one else was hurt in the accident and
hope you get your truck fixed soon.  Only point I was making with you
was I thought you were being a little more concerned about depreciation
value than need be.  I guess to each his own.  Sorry your thread turned
into a shitty pissing match but I'm sure you have seen it before.

Whjat I seek is proof that you are correct. What I'll find is surely
something different. Thats why I choose to let you prove it by posting it
here on this thread. Once again amusing that you went looking for it.

What archived posts, you haven't posted anything that proves what you've
said, so.... keep trying.

> Naw..... i had already decided today that I was through with you maxipad.

LOL, yeah, I guess you finally decided that you had enough of playing the
games you claim you don't, only to retreat after claiming you weren't gonna
post anymore.

> Exposing you for what your really are has some rewards I guess but it also
> has the downside that I have to stoop to your level to do it.

LOL, The part where you stooped was where you attacked Nate for having
legitimate concerns, attacked TomL for eloquently stating his point,
attacked Tbone for whatever, depending on the day, attacked Budd for being
Budd, and then decided t call me names for no apparent reason.

All of it was below the normal conduct you practice in here. IOW Jerry,
despite the fact that I regularly disagree with you, it was worth dragging
you around a bit until you realized that you had in fact, gotten off the
normally respectable hole you claim. I dunno WTF your problem was, but hey,
you jumped into the mud.

Nothing to hide from, Jerry, as you haven't proven a damn thing, since none
of the things you've claimed were true.

>  I did find it very interesting the two names you chose to identify as
> very close friends on this ng.  Very interesting indeed.  How is that
> saying....

Yeah, I guess it wouldn't surprise you to figure I'd spent several hours via
phone and internet helping TomL with trans difficulties, since you attacked
him too. Hell, for all the arguing you seem to think I did with Nate, I'd be
glad to chat with him and help out if he had a problem. Remember Lee? He
stopped here for several nights, even camped out in a local bar for a couple
of them, drinking and having a good time. Yeah, I'm such an a.shole.

Your turn.
