Does Rain Man wanna play the old thread game? Does he really, really, really wanna?

I sure hope not, because he would be obliterated.

Did you read that thread? He got all of the support in it, even from the only other Alpha that posted. Can you say the same about your frat on PP who basically disowned you? The OP is the one who got blasted. And none of the "complainers" chimed in. So yeah, Shid still wins.

BTW, did you read my above reply to your frat?

I have a question for you: Judging from the support and camaraderie Shid gets from GC posters on here, particularly you, would it be fair to say that you and Shid have an understanding, to say the least?

What kind of understanding?

Wow! You must be scraping the bottom of the barrel to inquire about a place that not only that I've retired from posting at (for totally unrelated reasons, lest you get it twisted as usual), but doesn't even pertain to the very forum that we're posting at now. I guess they must be having a slow week over there, since you felt so compelled to bring it up.

You and everyone else still got the point. Oh and I am not going to get it twisted. We all know why you left. LOL

No you don't because I never told you (or them):

1. PP has seriously fell off after 2008 (a lot of the devoted regular posters left).

2. It has turned into a Hollywood gossip board, a topic that I don't particularly care to delve into (although the "Superhead getting owned in interview" thread that I started actually didn't degenerate into the usual junior high brouhahas that are typical in PP threads).

3. My CPA/accounting firm joint venture I was involved with last year took up a tremendous amount of my time, and as a result, I really didn't have time to post or to log on only to find a slew of Hollywood BS threads. Simply put, I had a life to live and I went out and lived it.

4. I really don't have time in this stage of my life for a bunch of pointless negativity and juvenile behavior, which PP is infested with. It was fun at first and for a while, but after a certain point in time, it gets old and tired, and it makes you wonder if folks are just plain bitter about something or someone in their life. Misery indeed loves company.

And for the record, in 2009, my relationships with folks there actually improved tremendously. There were a lot less fights, and I got a lot more kudos for snappy retorts. Check my post history. So again, you DON'T know the reason why I left. And I'll say it again: don't get it twisted, LG!

Having a memory lapse?

So what happened to the joint venture?

It was for a one-year term with an option to renew in consideration of a full-blown partnership. We decided not to renew after the first year due to a number of major differences in business and work philosophies, which kept me from possibly making some really good money.

FWIW, the one good thing that came from this was that I earned $4,000 from one unfinished project that all went into my pocket due to a technicality that was not caught until the last minute. Because I had litereally worked 10-12 hour days for 4-5 weeks at a time over a three month period and hadn't made a whole lot of money, that became my Christmas bonus and I took a vacation to Orlando, FL and even stayed a night in Tampa while visiting a friend. It was a great time.

I learned a lot that year in more ways than one. Right now I'm putting together an entirely new and different business venture. I got several meetings tomorrow to see if this could work. I'm cautiously optimistic, but this just might work.

@Bolded
I missed this one. Can I get a link, some search terms, something? Im sure that dramatic exit was LOL worthy.
