I for one hope this is not just another empty blast of hot air.

But let's say for a moment that all the evil scum are ousted:
what do you think will replace them, apart from different evil
scum?

As we saw when Mr. Sloan was in office, these people
collect into small groups which then allow their leaders
to dictate the voting, and one man, with one vote, can do
nothing more than observe and complain. In fact, it often
happens that the first priority of evil scum is to rid them-
selves of irritants like SS.

Who cares? I don't give a ****. I want to warn parnets of the dangers
that these criminal predators, Paul Troung and Susan Polgar
represent to the public's chidlren.

I do not care who replaces them, as long as they never return
to threaten to kill again.

Much like Mr. Sloan, you can't seem to keep your
stories straight.

In many postings, you have accused Paul Truong of
threatening to kill you, but just above the story changes
to Susan Polgar and PT. This serves to undermine
the credibility of your stories. Also there is the idea
that since you are still alive, either the "threat" was
vacuous, or else you perhaps are a hard man to find
(or maybe the killers just haven't gotten around to it
....YET). I don't know, but staying alive just seems to
be counterproductive for you; if you were dead the
story would have a certain fundamental soundness,
an irrefutable basis in reality on which to build. Add
in the observation that although there are innumerable
threats, nobody has as yet stopped the alleged killers
by following through on them, and the story lacks
oomph.

My recommendation is to move on the the next
chapter: stop writing about what the hero is *going
to do* and write about him actually nailing the villain
of the plot. In short: the villain is tried and convicted,
his wife betrays him, the hero wins the day -- the
usual stuff. You can only keep the air of suspense
going for so long, before it becomes stale.

*Who* can't be bought. Using the term "that" for a human being
indicates a process of trading of goods (Mr. Sloan probably did
not even realize he was doing this). It is comforting to know that
whatever monies SS gains from his many lawsuits will be put to
good use.


This is false. The word 'that' in a restrictive clause can be used
equally
for people or things so doesn't imply anything. I myself generally use
it instead of 'who' in those situations.

But maybe you were just being sarcastic to intsult Sloan?

Your second sentence doesn't make sense. Like the
one constructed by Mr. Sloan, you have made a boo
boo, only yours appears to be leaving out an entire word,
whereas he merely revealed an appalling attitude toward
women /as goods/.


I myself


Redundant; who else could "I" refer to /but/ yourself?
;D

I hope you do not encounter /those situations/ very
often.

No, I was being observant of Mr. Sloan. It is much like
a Freudian slip, or a case where one of the Evans ratpack
reveals his innermost fears by attributing it ("projecting")
to a hated critic. In fact, I was not merely observant:
very soon after I wrote my observation, it was confirmed
by a follow up post by none other than Sam Sloan.

Don't say anyone can't be bought. I have encounctered tens of millions
of dollars in my
rather young life at 38, and I learned that EVERYONE has a price,
unless they are afraid of
going to hell. If Susan can avoid selling her soul, she CAN be bought.

Marcus Roberts


Marcus, why are we talking about her? Let'$ talk about me and you, and see
if you can prove me wrong and you right? Fair enough?

Seriously, no one really knows what they will do until they have been
tested. Also fair? And sometimes its the case that previous Villains act
like Saints when the going gets interesting.

There is not a single woman in the world that can't be bought.


From your experience?

Some men do not need to buy their women, or possess in that sense ~ though
this evidently comes with maturity rather than age.

And some women avoid men who try to ~ I suggest that is another tribe of
females entirely, so quite logically the realm of personal orientation
determines the resultant conclusion.
