Oh, let's see. I said I did not know. You come along and explain what the reason was. But then, you are caught in an obvious contradiction, so you say it was an intentional lie. Oh please, you can figure out the sequence of posts and know it was an intentional ruse to see if you would claim that no visa was needed for France. Of course, you stalled by refusing to answer where you got your visa until you could figure this out. I have a double standard????? Yeah, you expect to have your dream world BS taken in without complaint. And now you imply that "I" needed a visa for some reason different from your "reason"...? No, the the quotes around "your" is indicative of the suspicion that it's not your visa. Give it up Max....You are embarassing yourself so badly that even I, who should rejoice in your frustration, can no longer not be sickened by your endless perversions of everything. No, Mr. Biiig Trader From Monte Carlo, you simply don't like being challenged when you can never give an answer that anyone having done what you claim, can easily answer. Get a life. You are now no longer amusing. You are being terribly boring and I am terribly disappointed. I thought you were a worthy adversary. You are not. Just a sad pathetic lonely loser. Don't bother responding. Find another playground. This is the typical comments of someone who has been boxed in and successfully debunked. Third time you've done it. Why don't you stick to it this time? And while your at it, research your fictional stories so you don't get trapped. Au Revior. I'm, sure you mean "Au revoir" which means "until we meet again," as in the next time one of your fantasy exploits needs to be given a dose of reality.
Have a great trip. Just remember that if you call the States, it's a six hour time difference, not seven as it is on Planet RS7. If your going near the Monaco end of Italy, try Sailor's Tavern in San Remo. One of the Chef's specialty is pesto.
Almost as bad as my possible mistake that the market closing time was 10, and not 11 (well, at my age, you sometimes lose an hour every 13 or 14 years or so). But still, I should certainly be greatly ashamed. "Possible" mistake? Sheeesh! And the rest of your crap post is just a flimsy excuse, just like "I can't remember, it was so long ago." The real reason RS7, is that you never did any trading from anywhere in Europe, period.
âYou somehow knew I could not have been in SE Asia in 1970, but never divulged the "sources" of your knowledge.â Well, hell, thatâs a no-brainer, the source is you; to wit: --------------------------------- âI 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.â ------------------------------------------ You're not just the Biiig Monte Carlo Trader. you're also the combat veteran of secret State Dept. missions. And I gotta tell you RS7, that anybody describing the action in your last paragraph would have a lot more to tell, if it was true. They would have described how the leg was missing. Grenade? Mine? Mortar? Certainly not rifle fire from teenagers. Then they would describe themselves, someone or a group of men rushing over and applying a tourniquet and how they tried to save this man's life and the eventual outcome of their efforts. In my opinion, you were never in any combat zone and this is the most egregious lie a person can perpetrate.
goldenarm, the Principality of Monte Carlo/Monaco is exactly as far from Italy as from France ... the width of the (eastern/western) borderline. in case you plan to trade US markets from Italy, Monaco or France: the time difference between Rome, Monte Carlo, Paris and New York is 6 hrs ... Chicago 7 hrs. regards wild http://www.monaco.mc/monaco/index.html http://www.monte-carlo.mc/principalitymonaco/index.html
WARNING FOR goldenarm Just be sure you check carefully and get substantiating proof to show whether Italy is to the right or left of France. Elite's Dragnet Forum's Sergeant Joe -aka Max401- Friday will be asking some pretty awkward questions in about 20 YEARS TIME and will require detailed answers about where you got off your 'plane and photographs of all the places you took a pee and with whom you peed with.
Nah, just don't come up with three different versions of the same trip, not know where you landed or what time it was back home.
goldenarm, correction (sorry, my fault): Monaco is obviously a few miles inside France ... seen from Italy. nevertheless, enjoy the Alpi del Mare/Alpes Maritimes region on your way to (and around) Monte Carlo ... and don´t miss San Remo, where your Euros buy a lot more than in nearby Monaco. regards wild http://www.alpidelmare.net/inglese/home.htm http://www.sanremonet.com/sanremog.htm
I just KNOW I am going to regret asking this but..... why the hell does it matter so much ? It appears you are somewhat obsessive on a subject that must surely be occurring all the time on this Board. What's the big deal with RS7 ? Are you ill? These are meant as friendly questions as I feel the sense of regret getting stronger and stronger
It's a matter of a man's honor. Do you personally believe that this individual was on a secret mission for the U.S. State Department? Does this story make sense to you? And if you believe it is not true, this then makes no difference?
