    There's no need for that. Just because I likened your username to an item of feminine clothing.

    In one of those light bulb moments coupled with an audible DING inside my head... I forgot to mention the dingbat who prayed 5 times a day and wanted to get faster on a bike on 3 grains of rice a day and thought sex before marriage was a disgusting, sinful act. What was his user name?[/quote

    One of the highlights was a techno wiz member, who when having one of his many disagreements, said that he was able to see what other members were looking at on the Internet by hacking their IP address or something. That put the wind up a few people, particularly the married man browsing for escorts :lol:

    Ahh, the old adage that we all pay for it one way or another. I think all we are talking about is the differing cost of outright ownership vs short term rental :P

    I find it really funny, the internet sure is a wonderful place and full of everything that makes us human but to answer (not that it will mean a jot).

    I never once came here showing wealth, my posts were ALWAYS about how much cyclists are ripped off by manufacturers just because they have a captive market and push prices onto people just because they feel they will get away with it.

    I have never made statements about notoriety, I have been questioned but the amount of people who follow my work is something I have never exploited nor have I boasted about, it isn't real after all.

    My tuning ability is my own concern, its done me well and through all of the rubbish on the net, mainly of which is jealousy, it matters not because I have never wasted my time arguing with people on this matter simply because I've always been busy and in life I have found that those who spend all of their time on the net looking to attack others all have one thing in common, they have failed to achieve their goals and instead try to blame others for their own failings.

    Car ownership, not sure what you mean, I've owned a few and never once stated to own a car I didn't, whats the point ?

    I changed my name as my wife father and mother died, she was last in line with the name and instead of that name dying I took it on as we have 3 boys. Not that its your business but the answer is simply really.

    Using computer ability ? I would/have only done this when I felt the need and I've never felt the need to check anyone who I didn't feel needed to be checked.

    Previous occupations ? you refer to a building I rented out ? why does that matter ? I am a software developer, I have worked in several fields but always in the software business. I have several properties I rent out (all online through companies house) but again, I can't fathom why that bothers you or why you feel the need to make a totally invalid point ?

    Being a tool, thats quite possible. As I've got older I have realised the most important lesson in life. You can't please everyone but as long as my wife and kids are happy I really don't give a damn.

    Now for the wife argument ?
    Again, its people like you who post on the net like the guys in the above links you posted trying to make others think that a lie is truth or truth is a lie but to be clear, if I ever posted an image of my wife, she was certainly my wife. I would never deny my wife (she is as hot as hell)


    Now I would like to thank you all for your time in posting the above. The fact that I mean so much to you that you felt the need to take the time and put in the effort means a lot to me.
    Living MY dream.
