Hi Winston, heh... heh... ====================== "I know, I don't know what to do with it all! LOL." ====================== Here are a few suggestions, my friend. You could buy: 1 - some grenades 2 - a kevlar helmet 3 - a flak jacket 4 - a rocket propelled grenade launcher 5 - Custer's boots At the risk of self-flagellation - if you pick wits with a nitwit you will get a half-wit answer. (I just made that up - not bad huh?) If I don't cross swords with you in the interim... have a GREAT Christmas Winston. Gary Simpson

============================================== At the risk of self-flagellation - if you pick wits with a nitwit you will get a half-wit answer. (I just made that up - not bad huh?) ============================================== LOL! I like! Well, I'm kind of like the Bad Weather, I keep coming back, so chances are . . . :-) But just in case, I hope you and your family have a Great Christmas also Gary.

Hello Forumites, First a message from my sponsor, Mary Christmas: "HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU ALL!" Now, down to business... This could happen in ANY business, however, I want to ask it here because MLM's are, in fact, "people" businesses... How would YOU feel if you found that your upline sponsor, mentor, guru, Diamond, Wizard, Warlock, whatever was privately NOT the person that they portrayed publically? I'll give an example. Let's say that in public such a person behaved with utmost decorum but you witnessed the complete opposite when this person thought they were not being observed. What if this "role model" was a complete liar? What if this person was just leading people along a rose covered path just to advantage him or herself. How would you feel? What would YOU do about it? Would you confront the person or would you just retire away from their influence like a little mouse? Would you warn others? Would you denounce the person? What if you were a very vocal supporter of this person then you found out that he or she had been living a lie all along? How would you feel about that? Could you just "go along with it" in the hope that you could make some money along the way? I am talking about TIN GODS here. What are your thoughts? Gary Simpson.

============================================ How would you feel? What would YOU do about it? ============================================ Well, if ever I experience that I will definitely let you know. It's really kind of hard to hypothinize what one would do until one actually experiences it. Fortunately, to date I have not experienced anyone like that. But then I don't put people up on pedistals either, so perhaps that's why. What I have found in life is that people are people. They do what they have to to survive. Sometimes that includes the bad with the good. I'm sure that even the Pope has some less than desirable qualities about him.

Gee Winston, You must be one LUCKY SON OF A GUN! Or maybe all the DH's are in Australia or something! That building behind you in the pic... is that a bomb shelter or something? That could come in handy. Has anybody else experienced any of this? What I am talking about here is when a so-called monolith of hope really turns out to be just a PeeWee. Gary Simpson
