Everything.

Again I encourage members to use the forum search.

Are you really serious? Let me help you out as you are missing something very important; in jury trials BOTH sides are given the opportunity to present the facts. The trial isn't just about the prosecution getting all the floor time.

I've found our colloquy actually quite humorous, but I do have to get back to work.

Practicing law.

Nice chatting with you, Notch.

Later.

I'm not going to waste my time in a debate on it. I've never done what the guy did. And I've never seen anybody do what the guy did. And from all appearances he did it solely to be a tool.

Hell, for all we know he was looking at **** on his I-phone and in all his excitement just couldn't keep his foot out of the throttle. . . .

Good grief.
ya know, really?,..as i pointed out earlier,..i AM a porsche owner,..and the guy was being an UN-MITIGATED TOOL!,..case closed!,...toolish behavior DOES emminate unforetunaely a little more frequently in the porsche clan,...i have had MANY circumstances to observe this on a first hand basis,...f-wits are in every marque,..but probably the ONLY thing i don't like about my car, is the inordinate amount of tools that porsche seems to attract to it's marque,...yes,...upon occasion,...even me!,...but really,...the vast majority of owners like all fast cars, and have deep respect for all performance cars,...a few bad apples in every marque,...perhaps just a smidgen more in the porsche brand?

Yes, but there is interpretation too. If you are going to communicate, you have to take responsibility for how your communication might be interpreted.

Notch, I'm beginning to think you were that guy in the Porsche, so, what were your intentions?

Of course there is interpretation, and there are plenty of people who will, based on their interpretation, jump to conclusions that are not true.

You would be better off trying to sell a bridge on the forum, over trying to sell us the fact that a Porsche was involved had nothing to do with your post.

You are jumping to conclusions again.

Did I make any connection between the guys behavior and the kind of car he was driving?

I'm quite sure if the car would have been a Camaro or just about any other car you would have not even bothered to post at all. Again if any member questions this, all they need to do is use the search the forum offers.

Notch & Porcshe using the forum search.

My advice is members use the forum search so they can see your agenda for themselves.

I would have taken the damn wheels off and even cleaned those! I absolutely love rude people. Gives me all the reason I need to be rude in return.

If that doesnt make sense to you I'm not sure what does. Only do we get to hear both sides when it has to do with one corvette forum member talking about another corvette forum member.

The "possibilities" are endless but one shouldn't take time to hi-jack someone else's thread with all things considered..

Now, follow suit or go back to the Porsche forum

Why don't you stop wasting bandwidth on off-topic conversation and take this off-line to PM? You can tell me there what you think my "agenda" is specifically.

So you endorse jumping to conclusions.

I have nothing to PM you about that has not already been posted. All I suggest is members do a search. Clearly some already have taken that advice.
