COmpliments of Balsa Boy
Jerry, here's a form letter you can use from now on, it should make your job a lot easier: Category A; denials/excuses: ============================ [ ] The T-Shirt thing was not my fault. Everything you hear to the contrary is just lies. [ ] The bounced check thing was not my fault. Everything you hear to the contrary is just lies. [ ] The crap you heard about me from (insert customer/vendor name here) is just lies. [ ] This just confirms everything about TRA and NAR that I have ever said. [ ] This just PROVES that _________ is out to get me. [ ] What I need is ONE impeccable dealer to simply carry some of my actual products. [ ] I don't own US Rockets any more. [ ] US Rockets is still my company. Category B; ego-centricity: =========================== [ ] __________ may have been well-loved by you, but now that he's dead, I really must tell you what an ignorant asshole he was, because he narced on me and didn't like me one bit. By the way, he drank a lot and was therefore responsible for his own death. [ ] (Circle One:) Mark / George / Phil / Chris / Other:____________ ...is so blinded by their hatred of me, they fail to see the obvious - that I am always right. [ ] You changed the subject, you're illogical, and you're stupid too. [ ] You know, if you folks would have simply done things MY WAY, you would never have any of these problems. [ ] I told you so... neener neener. [ ] Gosh, I never have any of these problems at MY launches. [ ] TRA and NAR hate rocketry. TRA and NAR hate YOU. But Jerry *loves* you. Who's your daddy? Oh, yeah. Category C; bizarro-logic: ========================== [ ] I shipped APCP motors without a permit, ask me how! [ ] But APCP motors really ARE safer to ship than water! You see, water is H2O, two molecules of fuel with one molecule of oxidizer. By DOT's OWN REASONING this should be controlled even more tightly than APCP. [ ] If NAR and TRA would simply follow the law (as I interpret it) everyone could ship motors anytime they wanted, store them wherever they wanted, and there would be a plethora of motors available from hundreds of manufacturers. Category D; ingratiating sycophanty and miscellaneous commentary: ================================================================= [ ] Welcome to RMR, this is the sort of uncivilized behavior you should expect here (except from me, I really am above that sort of thing). [ ] __________, you really rock! You da man! [ ] Allow ME to welcome you to high-powered rocketry, which I invented. [ ] This should be in the FAQ Category E; Rambling, Incoherent, abusive diatribes filled with vulgarity and megalomaniacal drivel: =================================================================
