I do remember the remarks that I made about his daughters. I which he had indicated which set, so I will have to cover both.blackkkk rock ric wrote:Crypto; You may remember your remarks concerning my daughter.
You may remember my employment. A key component of my work is finding hiding people. The contractor I work for in Las Vegas uses computer techies to assist him. Locations of, leading to photos and other personal information of, "clients" is relatively easy to get.
I did buy two tickets for BM this year. One for me, one for a partner I sometimes use. He should be easy to spot, he is African American and bigger than me and I am 6'2 and 220. We are normally 20-30 feet apart and will be carrying manila folders.. Pictures you know.
We do hope you will be there this year, it will be pleasant to make your aquaintance, see you at BM!
I--Very soon after he had posted about the younger daughter shooting a mountain lion--which post indicated to me a certain pride in and affection for the daughter and a particular kind of relationship with her--he said something about wanting to live in an earlier century. I thought that was arrogant nonsence. Whatever his romanticized fantasies (and the Grinch is a romantic of the worst kind, IMHO) there simply wouldn't be room for that kind of relationship with his daughter. Depending on which century we're talking about (and I don't think he ever mentioned a particular date) she could well have been married. Depending on the culture she could have been a second wife in a bigomous/polygamous arrangement. So, I made some remarks about that. I believe I tried to arrange a marriage between her and Trey or else my beloved sock Rob the Wop. I knew at the time that these were offensive and potentially upsetting remarks. My point was the past he was dreamy-eyed about wasn't nessasarily the paradise he believed in. And if that's what set him off, in a back handed way, I did prove my point. He doesn't want his daughter to live in that sort of world. I don't want his daughter to live in that sort of world, yet even in this century the sexuality of young women is in bizarre ways public property. It's a bad sort of pedagogy that uses smug, painful examples and not a very effective one. A tactical error on my part. Yet, the Grinch is old enough to remember that it didn't used to be a crime to rape your wife. And I never even did get to the part about his daughter dying at age 19 from lack of obstetric care. Look, I have my doubts about the 21st century from time to time, but look at the alternatives!
II At a much later time I indicated that if his older daughter (high school age, I believe) wished to give a blow job, she wouldn't be reduced to using the parking lot by Bruno's. That was an attempt to point out that while it was a burner they saw doing that, sex in public places is practiced by the locals as well. They just have enough local knowledge not to get caught so easily. Of course, that could have been taken by him as an endorsement of the idea that BM has no place in the Black Rock Desert. Oh well.
I don't find his use of his daughters as examples any more illuminating than mine. C'mon--that "Daddy what kind of ammo are you using?" comment has to score at least in the 90th percentile of silly e-playa remarks.
Anyway, there's nothing in that pm to indicate that he has any actual knowledge about me (for instance--why does he need backup to confront a 5'4" greying woman?) and I can't see him lasting very long standing in BRC with 30,000 invaders surronding him. But if you happen to see two 6+ footers clutching manila folders as the only substitute for the massive firepower they were not allowed to bring and feel like opening a conversation, I'd be obliged if you'd ask the African American gentleman what he feels about working for some one who's so comfortable with putting on the mantle of the Klan to scare and intimidate people.
