| Um... JP... I hate to break it to you, but Gary and I get along quite well these days after getting things sorted out. My note that someone might want to check on him was exactly that, and nothing more. Take a pill, dude.  |

If that was honestly your intention then I can appreciate that and I am glad that was the intention, if it was.
And if that is the case and everything was worked out, then let's see if Gary is allowed back on the board.
Showme,
I am sorry that your birthday thread was highjacked. _________________

Well, that explains it!
I am glad you worked things out with Showme (Gary). Maybe you can work things out with CP (Gary).
Maybe you can hang around and contribute some legitimate posts occasionally. _________________

Do you still have his Dunhill?

Do you mean showme's? I'm not sure if it is the one you're talking about, but there was a Dunnie in the batch he sent to the shop. They've all been back in his hands for a while now, though. |

They might have the same first name, but the similarities stop there, I'm afraid. CP is beyond working things out with anyone at the moment. I hope he gets the help he needs (meaning professional) so that doesn't remain the case forever. As for the other, I'm not sure why you correlate posting frequency with legitimacy. |

| LL,
A while back you volunteered to fix his Showme's Dunhill that had antifreeze damage. (which I thought was quite admirable) When we corresponded a few weeks ago, he told me you were still working on it.

I do not correlate posting frequency with legitimacy but I do correlate content with legitimacy.
There is a place in this forum that one can post their thoughts and feelings not related to pipe smoking or positive content as they wish as long as it does not convey personal threats. Apparently this policy is more flexible with certain individuals than others. I understand that this is a somewhat private forum established by individuals that have the right to do what they wish. On the other hand, I don't see right, wrong and fairness flippantly and I don't take unfairness for granted or see it as some right of passage based upon the popularity of any individual. _________________

I just checked, and his box-O-stuff was returned on May 2nd. |

What ARE you running on about? I haven't posted here but a half dozen times since this board's original meltdown, and doubt I will any more frequently than that. I did this time because my exchange with showme was cut off suddenly, like a plug pulled from the wall, and he stopped posting at the same moment as well. It seemed like a legitimate concern, especially given that he didn't acknowledge his own birthday thread. If you want to make a speech about something then ask Dock if he'll let you make a sticky post. Or whatever. Damn. If you're trying to obliquely re-open CP's "case" then talk to the mods and/or Dock. They know a lot more about it than either you do (or I care to). |

| | PB -- we posted simultaneously. I agree. Flush all this justpipes back and forth as far as I'm concerned. |
