Was there ever a book written about it?

actually this gives me the urge to re-post some....<br /><br />actually this gives me the urge to re-post something from years ago - you can, or course, delete it if you want - but old grudges die hard and here is me and the esteemed author brad klein going at it over JACK thompson:<br /><br /><br />Quote from: Brad Klein on June 23, 2004, 12:41:00 PM<br /><br />The newspaper is just giving this kook a free ad by running this article. By the way, there is no phone listing in Coral Gables (area code 305) for an attorney named Jack Thompson. Too bad.<br /><br /><br />Quote from: Brad Klein on June 25, 2004, 03:20:02 PM<br />This whole thing sure looks like extremism to me. Haven't we learned that zealotry and fanaticism bring down everyone in their wake? Anyone who really cares about defending the game of golf would run and hide from the tone of these broadsides. Mr. Thompson sounds to me like an ideologue, and I'm sorry (but not at all surprised) to see Tommy Naccarato taking up his cause as a p.r. flak. It's especially warming to see Tommy's reminder that we not engage in personal insults or character assassination (reply #107). I wonder how many posts that would that require him to rewrite if he took his own advice seriously?<br /><br /><br /><br />What's up with these two posts, Mr. Klein? Hardly journalism at is finest. Setting aside what your post says about your research skills, why mention that you tried to look up the guy's number, and that it was "too bad" that you couldnt find it? <br /><br />WHEREAS -i'm relieved to see i wasn't the only one smelling the stench of hypocracy from brother brad klein (see my posts here #17 and #117) - it's obvious he doesn't do his own research<br /><br />FURTHER - if only those critics with him in their ivory tower here would as avidly demand a explaining follow up statement from Marty Parkes of the USGA to his statement "obviously we weren't happy with the conditions of the golf course either" as they do of mr thompson - we would be getting somewhere here<br /><br />WHEREAS - mr thompson is really onto something here but it can only be flushed out with the USGA fully disclosing their side - it's obvious to me that they lied and i would like to know why - and then compare both sides of the discussion - right now all i heard from the USGA to date was "I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN"<br /><br />ORDERED - so let's see what happens next<br /><br />FURTHERMORE - mr thompson is not the kook as brad klein thinks he is - he may come on to strong for some here - but when cooler heads prevail here - well - you'll see some progress on the topic<br /><br />REMEMBER - mr thompson was insulted here by brad klein and others before he posted - so i would have expected his hair to be up on the nape of his neck comming in here<br /><br />WHEREAS - tommy took a different approach - and came away with a different feeling of him - and then tommy was attacked as mr thompson's "PR" man<br /><br />further affiant saith naught<br /><br />frankD<br /><br /><br /><br />puff<br /><br />puff<br /><br /><br />frankD<br />ftliquordale soFLA 33316<br /><br />.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2640652526116928447.post-85166090386069668842012-01-01T09:55:55.106-05:002012-01-01T09:55:55.106-05:00.

and what a more inter....<br /><br /><br />happy new year patrica,<br /><br />and what a more interesting way to start 2012 than with golf related litigation as a topic<br /><br />as you may remember, i wear metal spikes legally at any course offering "public accomodation" courtesy of federal ADA regulations as severe monetary fines can be levied on those that attempt to reject me<br /><br />i also walk those same courses under the same legal theory, however my caddy and clubs ride the cart, which i gladly pay for<br /><br />i've even met john thompson here in miami, who although currently dis-bared, attempted to sue the USGA over a US Open set up some years ago<br /><br />yes indeed the fireworks will continue throughout 2012 on this topic<br /><br />puff<br /><br />puff<br /><br /><br />frankD<br />ftliquordale soFLA 33316Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
