Think we can taunt him into breaking the deal and posting something before his time's up?

If I recall correctly, he called into question my word, honor, manhood, etc. etc. etc.

I'll give him till the end of today, considering there are three states still too close to call (one of them being NORTH CAROLINA!, sorry MikeD and Jack)

Plus, its not about NOT posting, the deal was that you are MUTED via an administrator.

That is not a deal that is negotiable with an Admin. We don't use the Mute system as a toy, it is used as a tool against those individuals that will not follow the forum rules for what ever reason.

I was stating the way it was originally agreed upon, up to him I guess if he want's to honor the bet.

P.J.,.... I believe that DTR Member ramlovingvet said he was going to refrain from posting anymore for the next month to honor his bet with you!

It was never agreed upon by me is the point I was making. Don't worry about it, he is a stand up guy and will do as he said he would. Too bad more people around here were not like him...don't you think?

It'll be up to him and him alone. Too bad the bet wasn't the other way around. It's more than he that calls the things you speak of into question. Common sense would be another but I digress.

I admire people who keep their word and I'm sure ramlovingvet will stick with it no matter what. It's called principles.

What was the quote from George Bush?

Popularity is fleeting but principles are forever. (something to that effect)

Yeah, too bad it wasn't the other way around, right?

It was a sucker bet, anyone not blinded by the propaganda machine around here could see that coming.

Sure, it was the end of the story, I was being sarcastic to John,....as in, he didn't need to clarify the situation for me. What happened after that was true to form DTR bandwagoning.

The beauty of the whole situation is how angry at ME everyone is that he took a bet,........... not my fault in the least.

I don't log off, my status is set hidden, it stays the same color all the time. I hibernate my computer when I walk away also.
