But the text of his screen name running off the pic is the same.

Oooo... a TWFix conspiracy theory?

I can't ding him on that. I like that effect and used to do it on my other avatars before I got lazy.

iDesmo, I hope that you will give it a chance. This is a turbulent time and there are many people saying things that they're going to later regret, and it will be some time before things settle down on either site.

At any rate and in either case, it has been a pleasure knowing you.

It was pretty unique to him on CF. I like it. Wish I had thought of it. He still does not have the awesome "Lifetime Premium Member" tag though.

Desmo!

What did you do, take a Berlitz course? It took me close to four years to be able to decipher your posts, and now you've gone and made it easy.

Consider the welcome mat rolled out in your direction, wherever you are...

Sorry to beat up on your girl, but she's kinda jumped the shark lately. I won't bore you with the gory details, but I don't think all of her kittens fit in the basket anymore.

All her dogs aren't barking at once, either.

I'm doing much better thank you. As for explanations and such, I remember once back in the month of May - ish 2006 and speaking about Synblood, or synthetic blood and a stock I was following. I had posted some stuff on it in a thread about finance. Actually, backing up I read about it in a Popular Mechanics magazine in Aug 2005. The magazine was left on a bench by someone in the city and I flipped through it. I took a photo of the page and posted it on CF. After posting, I had a senior member of CF tell me it was dangerous to start posting stuff about stocks and speculations. I guess it was a form of crossing the boards with folks... the senior member directed it to me both in the thread and in P.M. I deleted the post.

I thought ...wow, he's perhaps right, I shouldn't speak about something I do fulltime "as a serious hobby," studying and researching and tracking and ...with some luck actually making a living on the side while I work 75 hours a week on a floor making peanuts out of school. Luck like VRTL, ILOG, IMCL and dozens of others I played with in 1998-2001 I'm still on the trail or a goodie here and there, ready to share too.

So if you had $10,000 what would you buy?

I'd buy the world here making many times my amount, now wouldn't I?

You've always been a great guy to me.

Some stuff is just too hard to explain - or believe - right?

Depends where I am in the evening and not meaning who's on top or spooning either. If I'm reading hebrew you'll notice some wicked mistakes all over the place all mainly due to the left to right handicap. Try changing over from one direction to another in a completely different alphabet. LOL

If I'm reading french, you'll see nothing but commas everywhere. This punctuation and the franco are like arm pit hair while women wave from the gare d'Austerlitz.

I can't say enough about fur balls.

You're the best.

Well that's what you get for speaking seven languages, fucking slacker.

The keyboard thing is a bitch though. When I was living in Thailand, I taped english letters on all the keys so I could write letters back to my buddy in the States. I sent a code key with the letters so he could translate. Problem was, I didn't really keep track of what I was typing, so my letters translated much like some of your posts used too.

Stick around my friend, this forum could use the "Machiavellian Israeli" point of view.
