One thing is for sure.. Ori has pretty much stated that he cannot discuss it. I think that by dwelling on this we could do no good, and possibly do harm.

Mike,

There are numerous aspects of my relationship with this dealer that you are not aware of and that I'm not at liberty to disclose.

I think its actually very sad that I had to post such information....but at times one has to choose between the lesser of two evils.

Confusion can hurt both consumer and dealer...and so I feel that in this case the interests are aligned.




Ori,

You’re right. I don’t know exactly what’s going on between the two of you, the details, not really, and shouldn't have commented. But I do know that the details aren’t important, not if everything else is slipping out the door, things you never seem to get back.

After a while what was said, what was done, where’d the dang money go, vanity and various other ignorance from all parties involved just gets in the way of doing that one right thing, not the lesser of two evils, that’s always too easy, but that first step. And that first step is a bitch. I’ll guarantee you that.


Mike

Mike,

Holy Moly. Mike, you have become such an enigma to me. Frankly, some of your posts have made me think you have a deep and personal relationship with "Jim Beam" (tongue planted firmly in cheek).

Then you go and state such simple profound wisdom. You are really tying my head into a pretzel.

Wow - my thoughts exactly, Rich.

I think Mike should be working on a book of short stories or humorous (yet barbed), philosophical essays. After all, today is Mark Twain's birthday, and H.H. Munro and Dorothy Parker are gone, too. We're in the position of a turkey farm: the week after Thanksgiving there are noticeable gaps in the roost.
