I would have to say the tops is Mettalica. I saw them with Creed, Sevendust and Kidrock. One heck of a concert! My ears felt like they were bleeding after the concert! Oh and the chicks taking their clothes off....wow! I was on the floor 10 feet from the stage! Unreal and unforgetable. Ted Nugent would be right there too. Awesome! :eek: :eek:
To some degree? I think this kind of crap is way beyond the pale, my friend: "I was involved in a criminal endeavor on behalf of our Department of State. Hell, we were just tourists with cameras. And weapons for hunting. And fine press credentials too. I was technically NOT sent there to be "in combat" and even though I was shot, I never knew by whom. I have a scar, but don't know who pulled the trigger. I was captured and held prisoner along with 4 others. We were kept in a "tiger cage" (covered hole in the ground), where we froze at night and cooked during the day. Each day of that was far worse than a month in any american prison, I assure you. Our "guards" were 15 or 16 year old boys with weapons they did not know how to use. I myself did not look down and see my leg missing. But I did see it happen to someone that was no more than 20 yards from me. And I did see the look on his face. I see it still." No checking this "combat" story out; a secret "criminal endeavor on behalf of our Department of State." Is this a normal and acceptable "exaggeration" to you? You really think the the US State Department even entertains such nonsense, much less carries it out? The State Department as a map making agency? Too many viewings of "The Dirty Dozen" if you ask me.
Point taken. So he's delusional and watches too many war movies. But don't kick a guy when he's down. Maybe he needs help.
The guy has laid out much of his life on ET, and it doesn't add up. All rs7 has to do is either stop bull shitting or quit making lame non-responsive and factually inaccurate replies (to say nothing of his personal attacks). All this does is to further undermine his credibility and force another response from me. You wanna talk the talk? I say you have to back it up, especially the outlandish braggadocio that permeates his posts. Played guitar on stage at Filmore East with the Allman Bros? Introduced Greg Allman to Cher? Please...
Don't know what is real and what isn't with rs7, but for sure he has given some good trading advice. So who cares about the rest of it? All I want from this site is to learn to trade better, and his posts have definitely helped me with my disciplne and overall emotional responses to managing my losses, and holding my winners. He has helped me, and that's all that matters to me. I hope he will continue the posts on trading and stay clear of the pesonal stuff. marcD
True, he does have some good trading gems here and there. I guess that's the beauty of being anonymous on the internet. Anyone can reinvent himself. I can choose to be a naughty schoolgirl or a Buckaroo Banzai-type superhero. Sooner or later though, if you write enough tall tales, the inconsistencies will emerge and expose you.
Any comments of mine concerning rs7 are restricted to the "Chit Chat" forum, generally a non-trading topic forum.
Okay...my next favorite musical performance was RS7's improvisations with the Allman Brothers at the Fillmore East, sometime in 1969. He was in the audience and jumped up on stage, grabbed Dickey Betts guitar and started jamming next to Gregg and Duanne. His fretwork on "Whipping Post" was to die for! I remember his girlfriend at the time, Racquel Welch, cheering wildly in the crowd in shades and a tank top. This was before she became a major star but I knew who she was from the movie "One Million Years B.C." What a set of lungs on that babe! Unfortunately, the music world was not exposed to more of RS7's talents because shortly after, he was recruited by an ultra-covert government agency to oversee the CIA's guerrilla tactics in Southern Vietnam, where he also advised in the development of nascent Navy Seal tactics in the region. Shortly after, he spent a few months at the Hanoi Hilton before being rescued by Special Forces soldiers under the command of Lt. John Rambo.
