Personally I am tired of all of this childish bickering by Lewis. The bets Mack made were smart and productive. Granted, there are no guanantees when gambling - one makes the best bets based on circumstances. Mack's bets were a hedge based upon the sales he made with his business. Since he won the bets, his customers got their money back on their furniture purchases and these people will not forget and will become repeat customers. Mack makes money on every sale - his prices are above what he pays for the furniture that he sells at a mark up. If he had of lost his bets, he would have not lost money because of what he earned selling his furniture - plus the tax deductions he would have accrued for his gambling. Saying his bets were foolish is nonsense. He knew what he was doing and he won - that is the bottom line. Lewis refuses to acknowledge the brillance of Mack's bets - he needs to keep his asinine comments in the sink where he rudely insults and berates everyone who does not agree with the nonsense and lies he spews. If I get barred for these comments, then so be it. I and many others are sick and tired of the crap that Lewis has been allowed to get away with for years. He has earned the right to be barred - many others who have had to deal with his filth, insults and abuse and have also wondered why he is being allowed to continue to ruin the forums with his behavior.
Is there anything sillier than someone saying he's tired of an argument, yet continuing that same argument?
And don't worry, David, no one's going to bar you. I personally would hate to lose my favorite puppet.
(Does a puppet usually know he's a puppet? Does he see the strings he dances on?)
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone, and give thanks that however your Thanksgiving may be going, at least you didn't have to spend it with crabby old David in your house. He would have screamed at and insulted everyone and made you wish you were anywhere else. You would have had to listen to little speeches like the one above--over and over, like in this thread.
