@p4pking it would be FANTASTIC to see you on there bro, it would be 3 pm Pacific Time yes thats right. 4 pm Mountain Time for @greynotsoold -- the all caps was a reference to TORTS which @ykdadamaja is currently studying in his law degree (legal claim of compensation or civil wrong causing claimant harm or loss) -- and just felt like implying you also were studying law/very busy etc... no acronym at all! Just 1 of my silly jokes. Now TARTS I could use a few raspberry or blackberry right now!
YOu just go to zoom.us and then upper right you'll see "join a meeting" --- then just type in the Meeting ID and Passcode listed a few posts above this. No need to download the app, it will try to get you to do that, but it aint necessary. Hope to see you tomorrow bro, ........and @ykdadamaja Mr TORT in the Bahamas!!!!

Well it looks like then you will be the one who bows out over political disagreements when you in fact were the one who said that agreeing to disagree should not get in the way of the zoom meetings but by all means do what you feel most comfortable doing, and whatever it is we will all accept it. Hope you're on there.

Anyway if Joe is not catching any more criminals we will look forward to seeing him as well this Saturday. Walurs may be busy and it's possible that Denison may be joining us from what I hear. Plus two Turkish guys and then there's dia bando and he claims that dark lord Al may be on there as well so that will be good for me and for Charlie and for beans

Re: Saddo Zoom Meeting: August 1, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. LONDON TIME- All Invited to Atten
Looking at the virtual carnage in some of the threads here, it's amazing to me that people who engage in racist behavior and language, and who constantly cross the lines of personal respect, can still get on a Zoom meeting like nothing ever happened. Hey, I'm all for forgive and forget but.... on a daily, flip-flopping basis? C'mon man.
Before anyone brings up throwing stones from a glass house, yes... I've engaged in my share of insult-hurling and yes... it's been personal in nature. But if anything, I'm pretty steadfast in my views and preferences. I don't go calling someone the scum of the earth and worse... and then go tip-toeing through the tulips hand in hand immediately after. Maybe it's due to culture... maybe it's due to character... maybe it's due to some combination of those. It just doesn't seem right to me.
I've noticed others on here who, without coming out and saying so, share the views I've just stated. They're just a bit more reserved and, seeing the eternal fireworks in the forum over a good number of years, who can blame them.
Racist views and comments are a constant topic here. I don't believe there are any outwardly racists here. They wouldn't have lasted too long. But racist views, to the keen observer, will lead to subtle slips of the keyboard, and provide a glimpse of how some people really feel. The clichéd line of "some of my best friends are (blank)" is so pathetically transparent and well known in society, it's incredible it would be used here by anyone with reasonable intelligence. And yet it has.
We all possess diametrically opposed views on any number of topics here. Problem is we have this frustrating inability to express those without eventually getting personal.
I'm not espousing holding onto a grudge forever. I just think when you've crossed certain lines.... scratch that... when you've stomped all over those lines with both feet until they're all but gone... it takes more than "oh hey, let's talk about the upcoming boxing card", to repair the damage.
To me, the biggest thing is trust. Even if I don't share your views... if I can trust you to be the same person today that you were yesterday... and that you'll be tomorrow... I can usually find common ground and go from there. The also clichéd line of "agree to disagree" has to be one of the biggest crocks of shit in history. Sounds wise when you say it... but the implementation sucks.

It can be, but when your constantly called racist and you bring out examples of your everyday interactions to show how of the mark the accusation is that’s how it goes. But that’s why the racist thing is flung about, any response is unacceptable, it’s meant to shut down the other side

I have just set up with a Mexican family across the border for four weekends of English language learning.. I will be teaching the parents and all four of their children Saturdays and Sundays for four consecutive weekends starting tomorrow, through February 13th which is a Saturday
Setting up the payment is a little strange as they are going to pay me in Mexican pesos and I am not allowed to bring out of Mexico more than a certain amount of pesos
I will not be renting out the table at the Farmers market in Tamaulipas therefore for the next four weeks in a row. Teaching English pays a lot more than selling fruits and vegetables trust me

How did I get the gig you asked? The Vietnam veteran who lives next to me goes to the father of the family who is a dentist in Tamaulipas. I met him through this Vietnam vet. The veterans hospital in McAllen would have charged him almost $20,000 for a ton of bridge work and crowns on his teeth but he gets the work done in Mexico from this dentist for a little under 4,000 us dollars. The guy is pretty wealthy and wants his whole family to learn English

Thanks for your honesty. I don't agree with you on everything but you hit the nail on the head there on quite a few things. Unfortunately I do think there are racists here, as that is part of life. Nobody is immune to bigotry, myself included but it has unfortunately been normalised in the US and the UK. We have a racist Prime Minister, he is known for it and until recently you had someone urging on racists so it is hardly surprising. I believe you should confront it wherever you come across it. I do not usually surround myself with far right leaning people whose tolerance of difference is nothing but an affectation but there are enough of them who now feel emboldened enough to come out of the woodwork that it is hard to avoid them all together. It is difficult not to be passionate about things when they are in fact an attack on actual values you hold dear. It seems to me, many here, even those claiming to be reasonable don't really believe in anything and are quite confused by the concept of shared values or even basic decency.

....a real extravaganza Bonanza eleganza this Saturday and once again last week's was just a real good Jack Da Rippa session, with boxing in the forefront as usual. @greynotsoold so was the felon finally apprehended? Haha must have been something and if you have the video from a CCTV should be great.

Rich's teeth will be in order and Joe is done with his citizen's arrests hopefully @greynotsoold so it will behoove all of us to coax and cajole Mr. P I mean Mr. T to join in the fun. ;D
