Apparently you didn't read one of my first posts about psychics. Flip back a couple pages.

Now that I understand it's the "newcomer" thing it's all good. I understand. I'm on your turf. You keep writing there partner. I'm not gonna criticize anyone. Have a drink and relax.
After I read up I'll tell ya what I really think.
Then you can criticize.

And all I have done is asked you to back up what you have said, with some examples, share some of your research. So that we can give your work due consideration. Place in a category of useful or bullshit. Seems fair, doesn't it? I;ll give you credit for this. At least you intend to to read the posted information. jwb still hasn't done that. But he isn't letting that stop him from running rampant in the speculative bullshit category. Good luck. I'll look forward to see what you come back with. Take your time. We have our hands full with other nitwits who are letting their imagination run wild.

This gets better and better. Entertainment factor is going off the chart.

I would be willing to bet that's why you post. This is entertainment for you. Part of the reason it will take forever to read this whole thread.

I'll be glad to entertain you with decency, class, and opinions based on fact.

I would be willing to bet of in the end we somehow agree you'd still criticize. No matter.

There are many here that read that can tell shit from Shinola and we have been here long enough that they can tell the difference between what we write. And the bullshit speculation that the newcomers write. That's why they still read us.

and good nite, everyone.

Sound familiar?

A guy is driving around the back woods of New England and he sees a sign in front of a house:'Talking Dog For Sale 'He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador Retriever sitting there
.
'You talk?' he asks.

'Yep,' the Lab replies.

After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says 'So, what's your story?'

The Lab looks up and says,'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.'

'I was one of their most valuable spies for ten years running... but the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals.'

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.

'Ten dollars,' the guy says.

'Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'

'Because he's a bullshitter . He's never been out of the yard.'

was it the references to mason Beagle that upset you?

Would somebody please go stuff a rag in their tailpipe and see what happens. It won't stall your car, it will come out. I remember hearing a long time ago that the rag was basically clean (as if no one had even tried starting the car after it had been put there).

Good question. Maybe he was following her most of the trip and she wanted to have her car so that she can come and go as she pleased? If she departed school to meet someone then we can question why didn't that person pick her up because of her car running poorly.

Tom, what if you were to take the same scenario you just mentioned, but account for the seeming chaos and panic and confusion that surrounds it. Maybe this wasn't a getting away trip (and a casual meet you at the gas station), but a running away trip. Running away in fear with POI hot on the trail. A "flurry" of activity. Real stakes involved. Secrets that run deep.

A lot of people here have hidden agendas, but I think you've got it backwards as to who does and who doesn't.

Rod, I don't see it anywhere in her post who she thinks has an agenda. You are not assuming are you?

You lack of knowledge of what has already been talked about here is making you look really bad. The only people who are going to support your limited theories for now are those who want to point fingers at locals because they see you as an easy convert. It's a shame, if you really are a newbie, that you are rushing into this. You will be swept away by faulty speculation no doubt, and the entire hope you have for yourself to be of help will be compromised before it even begins.

Well, hello to you Mr. Emt. I research missing persons cases (thousands solved and unsolved) and not sure what your referring to but I'm referring to the fact woman travelling alone in cars that have been involved in fender benders have been the victims of predators before.
So I guess I'll call bullshit on your claim, Bill.
Don't want too. But since you seem so sure and your wrong. You leave me no choice, bud.

"Between 1978 and 1988, seven women are snatched from lonely roadside locations — jogging, hitchhiking, stopping at a pay phone, or getting a soda from a vending machine.

this "be carried away" theme keeps resurfacing, doesn't it? well stated, Rod....but be prepared to restate it. how many creative ways can the same message be delivered, but not received? oohhh, about 10,000 times, give or take a thread or two.
does anyone care about Ayla Reynolds? if not, why not?

Rod he never said he was rushing into anything? He said several times that he was going to read the forum before coming to any conclusions. Why are you attacking the man when he hasn't given any
position.You are entitled to your opinion of course.

He was dead on when he made the statement regarding entertainment. Without confrontation there is no entertainment for some.

JWB, I am not assuming. This is implied based on the content of her posts and who she is responding to and in what ways.
Thanks!

Thanks for the post jwb, but I think you are confused as to who is being entertained by this forum and who is not. Also, I think you are confused as to who typically starts the confrontations here. Whether or not these confrontations are started intentionally or accidentally is difficult to say. But if you think really hard about it and resist typing an immediate response, you can probably figure it out on your own.

and he/she HAS given an opinion. I seriously have a difficult time with your reasoning.
