  3. No matter how much he goes out of of his way to make it easy....just to be fair. He is currently an English teacher and at one time, he taught Debate.
  4. Here is the news conference link again. http://video.msnbc.msn.com/nbc-news/48162456#48162456 The link to the PDF of the entire report. http://www.thefreehreportonpsu.com/REPORT_FINAL_071212.pdf P.S. Phil Knight protected him after he was rightfully fired...and Nike's President/CEO went to Penn St....it took Nike less than 4 hours to announce his name was being removed from their Child Development Center.
  5. For those that don't want to actually read the entire report or the transcript of the news conference which Mr. C posted....you can watch the Freeh news conference in the link I provided above. Keep in mind, the actual report makes the protector and enabler of a pedophile (and someone who would be facing multiple criminal charges if he were still alive....if prosecutors had had access to what Freeh did.) look much worse than the news conference....and the News Conference made it very clear he knew everything starting with 1998, was involved in the cover-up from the beginning....and even instigated the it after the 2001 incident. Freeh even makes it very clear in the news conference that the Protector & Enabler of a pedophile was rightfully fired.
  6. The Freeh press conference http://video.msnbc.msn.com/nbc-news/48162456#48162456 Speaking of ostriches.... TVs at PSU student center suddenly switched to public access. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/breaking/20120712_TVs_at_PSU_student_center_suddenly_switch_to_public_access.html?c=r
  7. Ended up deleting the post by mistake. I am still not used to the delete being where the edit button is everywhere else. As well as an extra step to make sure you're not accidentally deleting something. I will eventually get used to it. I am not going to type if all out again. "Saint" Paterno apparently not only might have been involved. "Saint" Paterno might have been the one to convince them to not report it....after they had finally decided to report it 16-days after "Saint" Paterno was first informed. At the bare minimim....he knew they had not done a thing up to 17-days after he was first told. His response was to not do anything....well except possibly convince them to not report it at all. After Tim Curley spoke to "Saint" Paterno....they went from they were going to report it to the Dept. of Welfare....to they didn't report a single thing. http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2012/06/29/sandusky-e-mails-revealed/?hpt=ac_mid They have only hit the tip of the iceberg in terms of emails and documents. The only thing any criminal/civil case will prove is was he involved in a cover-up and how much he was involved. Before the possible cover-up...."Saint" Paterno did the absolute minimum (up to a week after he was informed) legally possible. Once he knew 17-days had gone by and they didn't do anything and he didn't care....for both of those alone he deserves to be in hell if there is a hell.

  13. Oh, good! Sleep well, hope you have better dreams than I did. Was tossing and turning all night wondering which of my favorite breweries the InBev behemoth will swallow up next!! Yikes! I'm just a wreck this morning! Since I avoid InBev brands....happy to say, I slept very peacefully. Well, since you asked......I'd prefer it if you'd take a deep breath....exit this fun luvin' thread and head over to the 'Digression thread' to post some thoughts re: several rather pressing matters: 1) Should the bulk of Americans go with a vinegar-based....or tomato-based BBQ sauce for ribs on the grill this coming July 4th? If I had to rank my favorite types of BBQ and sauces. Texas K.C. Memphis East Carolina 2) Help me figure out where the embassy is for newly created (2011?) South Sudan? Is there one? On Mass Ave in D.C.? Wisconsin Ave up by Pearson's Liquors?? Where? I need to know. I haven't been there, but I am pretty sure it's in the same building as the one for Vietnam. I'll meet ya over there 'cause I have some thoughts I'd like to share about the indoor rowing tanks at the boathouse over at the US Naval Academy out in Annapolis. I know Hubbard Hall. Have had a few family members to go to both Academies. One currently will be a Second Classman there and another a First at WP....we still love the latter. haha Like I said, I tend to avoid non-musical/books/film related threads. Having said that. I will try to check in there in the future.
  14. Going to sleep. As head of the Illuminati, Freemasons and NWO...I will be putting in a call to every member (which apparently includes this board's owner.) on what exactly they should post even when I am not awake, or even around. P.S. Just for the record....am I allowed to bring up other member's family members (not that I would ever think to be so classless, or desperate.) in a mocking way, or is that just something only allowed to be done to me? Taking into account I didn't even bring up any family members in my one offending post, I can't imagine WTF? kind of pm I would have received if I was the one posting them. Should be interesting to see what the "moderators" make of things.
  15. That actually happens a lot in these situations.
  16. Somewhat amazing that I was able get everyone including the site's owner to say one way or another the same thing. Even the moderator's only problem with me is with the way I said it, doesn't agree with him. If I can only find a way to bottle and market this power. At least we gave Uli the show he wanted.
  17. Once again, thank you for being such a class act.
  18. You want to take shots at me personally that is fine but just have to say.... You're a real class act!
  19. with all due repect goody, uncle hate does not really come from that other jazz site. he is a moderator at IHM. Here is what he posted there in respect of this thread While like here and JC there is a lot of things to be found in the archives on IHM....of the three sites they have the most pretentious members who seem to be pretentious just for the sake of being pretentious...as if many of them are showing off how many big words they know and can use properly....which is why I have never posted there and don't intend too....and I am someone who likes a lot of what is discussed there and understands what they're saying. Having said that.... Something I have never understood about you. From what I can make out....you stalk a sight (I would call it lurking but what you do is more stalking than lurking.) made up of people you mostly don't like....and from what I can make out it is mostly mutual...which discusses music you either generally don't like or mock/insult/whatever. Is there really any legitimate reason to post that post in this thread....except some sort of Schadenfreuding thing from what will result because of it? You do the exact same thing on JC. Posting things from IHM that they say a about those on JC and sit back to see what happens. Do you get enjoyment on not adding anything to a discussion except to just throw gas on a fire and sit back to see what happens? Just look at the first person to take your bait and you can't blame hm....with the expected response to it by someone in his position on here. I get the feeling you're hoping Captain Hate (someone I believe there is no love between the two of you) takes the bait and ends up being banned.
  20. From someone who is not from outside,... From someone you can't get any more inside on here. Is there a single "inside" person who agrees with the Apologist's position on this topic?
  21. Yes, I freely admit I fell into "The Hole"....but on a subject like this it's impossible to avoid. Just when I thought I was out....
  22. If you had said Single Malt and STAT!
  23. Animosities, I may add, generated because of a simple disagreement regarding the various social and political issues facing us today. On this BBS, it's OK to offer differing view points just so long as it doesn't become a pissing contest. I admit, I have had to adjust my own posting style to one that is a bit less strident. But I am neither a "piece of shit" nor am I stupid, insane or mentally incapacitated in any way. Insults are the opiate of the unwise. I, however, have moved on. Life is too short to get that angry over any discussion which isn't life threatening. If anything, seems like that would make it more OK and not less OK to bring it up. If you're going to repeatedly trumpet your own credentials as giving you authority to speak about a particular topic...others aren't allowed to do the same when criticizing you? Perspective is not "trumpeting your own credentials" nor is it license to put people down or impugn their character because of a chosen profession. Look, if offering a point of view from a person who actually reports on child abuse seems inappropriate or a reason to blast someone, then I would also have to wonder who would you go see for a medical concern...your mechanic? A false analogy. Nobody here is saying that your point of view as a teacher is inappropriate or a reason to blast you, they're saying that what's good for the goose is good for the gander. If a doctor says (in the course of telling everyone he's a doctor and they should listen to him) stuff that opens his own medical competence and judgment up to criticism, then that's fair game. I have no problem at all with disagreement, Big Wheel. But to make veiled put downs of a type which impugn one's character and ability to discharge one's professional duties is pointless as it is entirely unnecessary...especially when the attacker has no understanding of the reporting of child abuse and/or how to gain a conviction. It takes time to bring it all to a point where the child can be removed and protected and that is something the anti-Paterno camp refuses to acknowledge. Why that is a bone of contention escapes me. The bone of contention for whatever reason your mind can't seem to understand...yes, it takes time....forget, hours, days, weeks....every single second counts. Waiting 2 days to a week because he didn't want to ruin anyone's weekend is borderline criminal (if it was anyone but "Saint Paterno" they would have been at least indictment)....and while I also don't believe in Hell. If there is one "Saint" Paterno belongs there. I ask again....WTF? do you think would have happened to you if you did the exact same thing and not even in the same Universe of Power as "Saint" Paterno?
