doct-----
sackmeister ----------
Is there any way you might post here around the same time?
You know, something like, "Hi Ted", and the reply could be, "HI sack".
You each seem to post in spurts. A little spurt of doct one time and a little spurt of sack at another.
That way we can dispell the rumor that you are the same person and I will give you a sincere apology for having mentioned it.
What do you think? It would be a big help.

Justice, you ain't gonna get. Unless it's very private and vindictive. Your money, property and possessions are long gone. I would suggest
you follow your own advice...Move on. |
I talked to Ted briefly this evening. He said that he was filling out some type of incident report about the matter. He said that it was some type of
human rights organization that he was providing the report to. I asked him on what side of the border this organization is on, and he said it was on
the American side. I asked him if they had a website, and he said that they might, but I don't think he was completely sure. I have to figure that
they have a website. I'll try and remember to ask him the name of the organization. The guy was beat from having been out for a good part of the day,
so I didn't press the issue.
In some ways Ted is moving on, but it's only been 2 months since it happened, so as you might imagine, he's still feeling the effects of it all. Just
being forced to live in a motel room is enough of a reminder. A minute by minute, hour by hour, daily reminder.
Ted's not alone, I don't think. If you read his thread starter, I think he alluded to having a girlfriend. The few times that I called, a couple of
times a woman answered, so at least he's not alone. It must to suck to be in your 50's or 60's and go through what they are going through. I have to
say that we did talk about his past, and it is quite colorful. He's been a millionaire a couple of times. He told me that when he was younger he was
not the type to let the grass grow under his feet. He was once a general contractor, I think he used to build houses, though I'm not sure. He's done
alot with his life, alot more than more than I have with mine. To tell you the truth, I really don't know if the guy is a good guy or a bad guy. All I
know is his life was crushed to bits in Rosarito Beach a few months ago. Or so it seems.

If anyone asked me a question that I did not answer, I wasn't ignoring you. It just means that I didn't see it.
This thread has alot of pages in it, and so there's a very good chance that I didn't see your question. Next time, please PM me your question. That
way you can be sure that you'll get an answer. I think it's only fair that I post both your question and my answer to it on the board for everyone
else to read. If you don't want me to post it in the forum, please say so and we'll keep it private.

Yep, a NEW RECORD for a newbie!

Minnow, you might wanta PM Ted with that question. Good God, didn't someone ask that question a couple of days ago? BTW, I did ask him if he had an
FM-3, and he said no. For the record, he told me that for one year he lived in an apartment in Playas on the beach in TJ, and ahh heck, I forget how
long he said he lived in Rosarito Beach.

Dude, maybe you should have logged in as Ted before you posted this.
What could you answer that would be of any value for us unless you are Ted? This whole thing is about helping Ted...isn't it?

Sackmaster: You're defending the undefendable. You have no knowledge of the answers to the very reasonable questions that have been posed to Ted on
this thread. Let Ted come forward and make his answers public. And, no...we're not going to call him. He brought the subject to this forum; let him
answer here. You might be surprised how much help, and sympathy is available here...

Yeah that's what I told him earlier tonight! This is a guy who 7 days ago today didn't even know what a "thread" was! He wanted to know what the heck
you guys were all talking about! He was wondering how a thread could get this big despite his inattention. I just told him about people like Dennis
and a few other nonsensical ramblers here who are lost in space, and he got the point.

Well then you might be waiting awhile. And I've already touched upon some of the reasons why. Filling out incident reports to a human rights
organization or trying to find a way of making some money is alot more important than tending to this thread. If you really want to know the answers
to the "very reasonable questions" you have then you're just gonna have to wait it out. And if you had any real sympathy like you say you do you'd
call him yourself. I don't believe you have as much sympathy as you think you do. Talk is cheap thanks to Ben Franklin and high speed fiber optic
cable. Then again unless you're Bruce R. Leech and you can't afford to make the call.
I'm trying to keep in mind that we're in an Internet discussion forum, and in this type of medium it's sometimes impossible to judge a persons true
character or where their heart really lies. You can trot in all of your forum buddies one at a time to tell me how great you and the rest of you are,
but the fact is no one has done a damn thing for Ted. In fact, some of the posters in this thread are like jailhouse punks when you take into
consideration what Ted and his family have gone through.
What have I done for Ted? I haven't given him a penny. But I have given him some good leads as to how he can make some money with very little effort.
It wouldn't be alot of money, but every bit helps. All of this was done on the phone. Get it? The P-H-O-N-E.
All of this sympathy and caring you're talking about is a crock. Remember where you are right now. You're in Cyberspace, a virtual world, not a real
one. What are you, a comedian? Are you trying to be funny? Your virtual caring and your virtual sympathy aren't worth chit in the real world. If
you're gonna talk it, walk it. Until then, don't waste my time, or Ted's. If you gotta question for me, PM me, I'll answer it.

I've got news for you. The internet is as real as any phone.
Again. Why would anyone concerned and willing to help Ted need to PM you a question? Wouldn't it be better to send it to Ted?
I'd guess that most people here have not called or sent a PM to Ted; because, Ted would be better served if the information needed to determine how
best to help him was in an open public fourm. That, in fact, is what bajanomad is.
The whole reason for this tread is here is to help Ted and his family. It is both amusing and confusing to me, and others, as to why you even
continue to post here in the manner that you do. What value is it to Ted?
People offered help and asked a few questions. Instead of helping, you have turned this whole thing into a sideshow. I can tell you that your antics
have been entertaining for me and others.
I have plenty of sympathy for all humankind and have done much to help others in this world. I know many others here have done some great things for
other people too. Before we get into a big pis*ing match about who is the greatest human; maybe, you should go read a few of the other treads here
and see for yourself.
One of the first things I realized when I first found this board was how much people here cared for and helped each other; often, in times of great
need. There truly are some great people that log onto bajanomad; and, they have done some great things for others.
Go ahead. Look. You seem to be full of energy and zeal. Use it in a good way and good will be reaped. Adjust that feedback loop if you want
positive results.
Meanwhile, all we can do here is wait to see Bruce's post tomorrow.

Thaddeus is a computer idiot
Part of the suspicion lies in the fact that Ted posted a serious message in a forum. Most would then figure he knew how they operate.
It also seems that after Googling and researching Ted via that number it turns out he is a computer idiot. He posted on Yahoo many times during the
last year and boy, you would not believe the questions.
Ok, I now believe that he is a real person. But...is he the Sackmaster?? The
sac knows forum life well.
I doubt it but if he is, he's a genius. This whole exchange of suspicion and controversy would be put to rest if Ted could manage a computer. I
suggest someone teach the guy. If he can repair the stuff he claims to then he could definitely learn enough to carry thru with this post.
BTW, he is married.... and I feel bad for his wife and daughter. He should never have put their entire fortune at risk. Is he a U.S. citizen. It
appears that he is.
"Oh", and he uses that word often, an FM3 would have been very handy!!!!!!!!!! DUH!!!
Phoney cops, bribed cops, hired cops, threatened cops? You choose.
Sac, let the meister speak more for himself. It would help us get to know him, rather than second hand knowledge.
