    and fearful way of looking at the world.

    Did my answer make you uncomfortable? Given the fearful way you view
    sexuality and intimacy, I suspect it would. Regardless, it was directly
    relevant to the discussion, and your snippage reveals more about your
    fears
    and intellectual dishonesty than anything else.

    GaryG is an Epicurean. Ed Dolan is an Ascetic. These are diametrically
    opposed philosophies. Never the twain shall meet. I am not going to explain
    these terms as they can be found in any encyclopedia.

    I determined to become an ascetic by the time I was in my mid-teens. Just
    being around the other type has always disgusted me. Since they disgusted
    me, there had to be something the matter with how they thought about things.
    It seemed they were overly into the flesh, and so I went in the opposite
    direction and got into the spirit above all else. In fact, I may have become
    too mental for my own good, but once embarked on this path I never looked
    back.

    The 4 years I spent in the Navy confirmed me in every thought I ever had
    about the matter. I abjured forever the pursuit of pleasure because I did
    not like what it did to people. To avoid pain is one thing, but to actively
    pursue pleasure was a horror. People became worse than swine. I resolved
    never to have any association with such pigs once I got out of the Navy if I
    could help it.

    I have always enjoyed going without and doing without. I like to wander
    about in deserts and experience the emptiness of things. I infinitely prefer
    to be alone than to ever be with anyone. I do need the artifacts of mankind,
    but I do not need man himself. So what does all this have to do with GaryG?
    Well, he is the exact opposite of me, so by telling you about me, I am also
    telling you about him.

    We all have to make some choices about the kind of person we want to be.
    GaryG has chosen his way and I have chosen my way. What he describes above
    as the good things of life horrifies me. Any kind of intimacy is a living
    death. I can't stand to be touched or to even have anyone close to me.
    Laughter is for fools. I can go for months without speaking to anyone other
    than the most elementary type of greetings.

    Most men will not be ascetics. Most men will be Epicureans like GaryG. The
    gulf between us is vast and unbridgeable. He seems like an animal to me, no
    better than a dog. I would rather be dead than be like him. And all of this
    because of a difference in philosophy!

    I should have been a pair of ragged claws
    Scuttling across the floors of silent seas.

    I know a guy who once felt as you seem to regarding intimacy and the
    pleasures of the flesh. He earned a degree in theology, and joined a
    Catholic monastery aftewards. However, shortly before he was to take his
    final vows, he realized that he had actually been running away from who he
    really was. It turns out that he was actually a homosexual...the
    realization of that fact came as quite a shock to him, but it also released
    a great burden that he'd been carrying for many years. He's now in a
    committed relationship, having been "married" about 10 years ago.

    I'm not saying you're in the closet, but it does illustrate that running
    away from human contact can be a way of covering up a deeper underlying
    issue.

    time trumpeting your own ostensible "greatness". It's this belligerent

    Your reply also ignores the fact that your feelings are so far from normal

    Given that you started having feelings of disgust towards your fellow human

    this was a manifestation of something innate within you, rather than
    something you consciously "chose".

    Ummm, ED - I've never admitted to that...your mental state may be reading

    Why would I want to do that? I have an active social, physical,

    planning our training schedules for some of our upcoming adventures. Life
    is too beautiful and good to consider checking out any time soon.

    You, on the other hand, have no one close to you (physically or
    intellectually, and certainly not sexually). You also seem to be very

    Non-responsive + ad hominem.

    Nope, you are a pig and a slob by your own admission.

    Ummm, ED - I've never admitted to that...your mental state may be reading
    something like that into my self-described hedonism, but in reality I'm
    nothing more than a fun-loving serial monogamist.

    Like most men, I've had fantasies of sleeping with a bunch of different
    women, but I find the logistics of that lifestyle too daunting, and I also
    find myself drawn to only one woman at a time.

    Not really...nothing that a weirdo like yourself can say bothers me much
    at

    As a frequent lurker I am asking me for a while what this has to do with

    that one is able to filter the subject? Thanks in advance.

    It won't hurt you to know what kind of scum buckets we have here on ARBR. It
    is one thing to be a fornicator and it is quite another to be boasting about
    it in a public forum. My disgust runneth over! How about you?

    Ed Dolan is synonymous with off topic. So simply add "Dolan" to your
    filter.

    For a newsgroup to be on topic forever is an abomination. We would all die
    of boredom and deservedly so. No, the Great Ed Dolan will not let that
    happen and he is here to bring a little joy into your otherwise drab lives.

    After you have read the scintillating messages concerning rear derailleurs,
    disc brakes, helmets, lights, etc. then you come to off topic and maybe get
    something that will brighten your day. Why should we all dumb ourselves down
    to the typical dumb post that shows up like clockwork on ARBR and RBM. We
    are better than that, even if I have to drum it into your thick skulls
    against your will.

    Ed, if I do say so myself, many thanks for all you do for these blasted
    newsgroups, the members of which do not have the brains to come in out of
    the rain. Hells Bells, if it weren't for you, I would just as soon lay down
    and give up the ghost. But why go to Hell before you die when you can read
    the Great Ed Dolan and get a little bit of Heaven right here on this earth
    via a newsgroup, even ones so lowly as ARBR and RBM.

    No one will go to your link because all one would get for their trouble is
    mostly likely a virus. Now you see the importance of properly introducing
    any link that you want folks to go to. But your type depends on the suckers
    and the mugs for their sustenance. It is ever the way of the scoundrel.

    So you're paranoid too?!? LOL

    (Ed, it's FUNNY. LIGHT-HEARTED, EVEN. BUY A CLUE.)

  17. GarG and Jeff Gripe,

    Both of you obviously have Ed's number and his goat and he very well
    knows it although he will never admit to it, not even to himself.
    Since Ed can find no one worthy of himself, my advice to him would be
    to just go F*** himself ;^) I have his number too and submit for your
    enjoyment my take on Ed Dolan.....

    Ed Dolan has conspicuously demonstrated that he is consumed by an
    unrestrained and enormously distended sense of self-importance. He is
    ARBR's self-anointed apotheosis, a quintessential legend in his own
    mind ... the consummate conundrum ... a complex amalgam of absurd
    contradiction ... one who maintains an opinion of himself far beyond
    the opinion that others will ever have of him ... an incongruous,
    emotionally-challenged, bigoted, egomaniacal misanthrope who is in dire
    need of a therapist.

    The gap between Ed and reality is immense and insurmountable. Just
    listen to what the man says of himself for what he intimates is very
    telling. He professes to have attained spiritual fulfillment by
    abnegating contact with others, in effect rejecting his humankind's
    collective communal consciousness.

    Often, in disdain, Ed has avowed his cerebral transcendence over all of
    ARBR's subscribers, pretentiously extolling his fanaticized
    preeminence. For the sake of argument, humor Ed in his delusional
    state and consider this. There is an inherent human desire to be
    recognized by one's peers, but Ed contends that he has no peers.
    Consequently, the very recognition that Ed demands is circumvented by
    his own arrogance. Nonetheless, in utter contradiction, he perseveres
    in his insatiable crusade to be heard by those who seemingly matter
    not. Is this not just a bit incongruous?

    The pompous Ed Dolan subscribes to the mistaken impression that the
    readership savors his every word whereas in reality the only person who
    values what the man says is the many saying it. Ed is a pedant who is
    enraptured be his own vacuous gibberish. With no one worthy of his
    companionship, the sanctimonious hermit has little more than ARBR from
    which to derive meaning in his life. ARBR has assumed an exaggerated
    prominence in Ed's hierarchical order of relevance. ARBR has emerged
    as the source from which he garners his sense of accomplishment and
    self-esteem. Regardless of Ed's expressed opinion of the ARBR
    readership, without the lifeblood of the ARBR audience to sustain him,
    Ed has nothing and is nothing. What a pathetic shallow existence.
    Pity the misguided fool. It must really suck to be him.

    mor fitting. My compliments to whaever is responsible. I initially
    thought that this was likely a tongue in cheek link, but was pleased to
    find tha it is not. I thoroughly enjoyed this, particulary the
    silloute at the end since it was a befitting tribut to the vermin
    himself.
