Huh. Then, *not* an officer, right? Coulda sworn ya said you were an
officer.

So, what what were yer duties as an alphanumeric pair? Swab decks? Hoist
mizzenmasts? Wake up and find yerself hangin' from the second highest
yardam? Shirley ya had some kind of title... Prevaricator Third Class?

For all yer braggin' about yer 22 year "military career", ya never have
mentioned what yer regular assigned duties were. Ever. Odd, innit.

I heard a rumor that his duties were that of a parrot cook, mostly
plucking and boiling.

That explains the patch over one eye. So, wot duty did he draw after it
became obvious that he couldn't catch a parrot?

Ok, you are starting to appear both ignorant and obnoxious. A Petty
Officer is not an officer? Please explain.

And, you are appearing simply ignorant (you passed obnoxious long ago).
When one refers to an officer in the military, they mean commissioned
officer (as opposed to an enlisted man), which in the Navy begins at
Ltjg. Petty officer is a naval enlisted rank, and a particularly low one
at that for someone with 22 yrs of service. An enlisted man with half a
brain will easily attain the rank of E-6 after 4 yrs of service.

Ok, my mistake. I'm a Democrat, I don't know anything about the
military.

However, when did Ray say that he was "an officer in the military",
thus?

He said he had that rank when he was on the USO tour. Maybe that was
after 4 years. Did he claim to have 22 years in at that point?

Dunno. I read Sylvia's comment as more of a question than a statement.
And, I seem to recall him saying that, too, but, I could be wrong.

He said he served for 22 years. As I said, that's a rather low rank for
that much time in the Navy. So, if he achieved E-6 in his 5th year and
rose no further, he was either a particularly dim bulb or quite the
little fuck up.

Yeah!

That's prolly cause I asked "So, Haddad, *what* rank were ya when you
were on that USO tour?" See up there ^ , what ya snipped?

> Maybe that was after 4 years. Did he claim to have 22 years in at that point?

Irrelephant. I didn't ask Haddad if he had been an officer. Mr. Stan
showed why you were wrong to say that I had been wrong, so you snipped
all that to argue a point that no one made, and ya snipped my real
question to Haddad:

They are the arbiters of all they survey. Or so they think. I know
otherwise. If they face reality, so do they.

>Also, I'm wondering: what makes you do this? Do you know?

Because they fear me. I threaten them somehow by my existence. The
only way they can prove otherwise is to thump their collective
chests declaring themselves superior being. In itself, that makes
them inferior but the irony of that seems to escape them.

It would also be nicer if people who admittedly "don't know anything
about the military" would refrain from refering to someone else as
"starting to appear both ignorant and obnoxious" when discussing the
very military things about which you know nothing.

Shamey! Shamey! Shamey! How dare ya suggest such a thing about Haddad!
Hasn't he told us how, with total disregard for his own safety, he
devoted himself to the

PROTECTION OF THE USA for 22 (twenty-two) years.

Gawd, Crazy Jane, yer dissin' a self-proclaimed

NAVY VETERAN and WAR HERO!

What? Ya think Haddad's gonna *cry* 'cause someone asked him what his
duties were durin' his

GLORIOUS MILITARY CAREER?!

There's no cryin' in the Navy!

What kind of a sad-ass, chicken-shit smear of slime would agree with you
that havin' a Person of the Petite Persuasion asking what his duties
were in the Navy is justification for cryin', "WAH! I'm bein' pushed to
the point of suicide by cyber bullies!"? Certainly not Haddad, the
self-described

NAVY VETERAN and WAR HERO!

Sock, not "hood". I'm pretty sure that's a sock there she's attemptin'

That's right, Haddad. No one has asked you to answer for what *I* wrote
about *my* not having served in the military. Even if women were
drafted, I was a child during Vietnam.

I do see, however, that you have once again (4th time in a row, yes?)
inexplicably not answered what I asked you (right from the beginning)
regarding the tales you have told in MW about your 22-Year Navy Career.

Shirley, you haven't suddenly developed a sense of modesty after all
these years! Is the question too difficult? Don't you even remember what
kinda work you did in the Navy? Lookit, I'll make it easier:

Haddad, what was the highest rating that you attained in the Navy? Not
yer pay grade, yer job specialty. Or, if a commissioned officer, what
was yer rank/occupational specialty--what kinda duty assignment(s) did
that entail?

Who are you addressing? Who was I discussing? Did YOU put a name to
that? Shame on you, Hope-a-dope. On the other hand, YOU knew full
well who you were wishing would "lie down and die." After all, you
added your comment to the reply to her post.

You've been givin' yer metaphors a good stir again. Tell us once more
about how ya make soooo much money with yer writing.

Well, it don't matter now 'cause towse followed you around Usenet and
dug up the information ya posted about yer ratings in another newsgroup.
So, guess what *towse* then posted to MW at the EXACT same time that you
posted this reply to me? Oh, yeah, Haddad she just supplied us with the

introducing information that ya posted elsewhere into MW... which now

Hey! You said you were "an E-5 and later an E-6" during the "early
70's", the time you claimed to be tourin' around with the USO an yer
time off from combat. But, by 1991 ya only got as high as an E7? Huh.

Mr. Stan: "Petty officer is a naval enlisted rank,
and a particularly low one at that for
someone with 22 yrs of service. An
enlisted man with half a brain will easily
attain the rank of E-6 after 4 yrs
of service."

Pies de Arcilla: "He said he had that rank when he was on
the USO tour. Maybe that was after 4
years. Did he claim to have 22 years in
at that point?"

Mr. Stan: "He said he served for 22 years. As I said,
that's a rather low rank for that much time
in the Navy. So, if he achieved E-6 in his
5th year and rose no further, he was either
a particularly dim bulb or quite the little
fuck up."

Mr. Hope: "Why does it always have to be either/or?"


NEW QUESTION:

So, Haddad, what was it like to tour Vietnam with Mr. Bob Hope?

is it?

we're all a bit evil, though some are a bit more evil than others.

Ray is not the most evil person in the world, but he's certainly not a
good role model in any way that i can think of at this juncture.

i mean, even if we subtract the evil like you suggest, there's not
much there to admire, is there?

FWIW, I now believe that Haddad is not simply clueless about social
mores, but that he is truly unable to *feel* what they are about. That
is, when it suits his purposes, he can mimic an understanding of them
[1] based on what other people say, but he is one of those (thankfully)
rare people that are literally incapable of developing his own awareness
of social decency.

He will never feel shame for his words because, although Haddad *is*
capable of sensing when he's really causing disgust, it is impossible
for him understand why. So he will continue to react out of anger and
fear, with complete disregard for logic.

Of course not. That's Ray Haddad *Showing* us how "sensitive" he is.

Compare to Ray Haddad in MW, *Telling* us how Sensitive he is:


"I have had the extreme displeasure of twice having to inform next of
kin about the loss of a loved one on active duty due to combat. [...]

"It is a sad duty beyond description. As a senior military person, that
task often falls on our shoulders and we are trained in the matter. I
expected the worst and was thoroughly overcome by the heroic
acceptance in every case. Yes, there were emotional wails, sobs and


tears. I thought they would render me into mere shreds of a man if I
had to endure them for any longer than I did. I was moved to tears,
myself.

"In all three cases, the questions were the same and could have been
read from a script. They wanted to know the details of his death and
then, in spite of their grief, asked in one form or another if their
man had died with honor. Bearing a letter describing all, it was an
easy task to simply hand it to them. Instead, I had taken the time to
learn all I could because I expected the questions. I'll never forget
those visits as long as I draw breath.

"All three women were alone with me after I informed them. They didn't
have to put on a show for me. They had seen me shed tears for their
men. All three accepted their losses as necessary. Not one of them
called the death senseless. Not one of them asked, "Why me?" They had
all known of the possibility of this loss and as mothers and a wife
were behind their men."

maybe. however, since he only used the first letter of the person's
last name when he did his latest disgraceful act, it shows that he was
consciously aware that he was crossing a major fucking line, therefore
indicating that he is evil far more than a mere inability to feel at
all.

but again, he did show a pre-consciousness of guilt in the matter by
only using the letter "P" during his despicable and pathetic little
outburst.

Oh, absolutely.

There are people without a full range of normal human emotions. It is
obvious that Haddad feels anger and anxiety. Still, "consciously aware"
and "emotionally aware" are not always in tandem.

You may be right, that could indicate guilt in someone. But, I'm talking
about people that lack empathy in certain situations due to their
inability to feel a particular emotion(s). That does not preclude their
knowing that their behavior is considered inappropriate (or odd)
according to social standards, and that it will draw /might draw
censure--even if they can't see why it should as they do not have the
needed emotion(s) to *feel* the truth.

For example, Temple Grandin, a high functioning autistic, once looked at
a sunset that filled someone else with awe at its beauty. Miz Grandin
was fully capable of describing the sunset using non-abstract terms, she
could even explain why we see the colors that we do, and she could state
that she was aware that a sunset was considered beautiful... and that
this one filled her friend with joy. Sadly, Miz Grandin also know that
she could never *feel* as her friend did--in fact, she could never even
understand how a sunset could make anyone feel that way. She just
doesn't have the frame of reference.

So, what you see as possible "guilt", I see as Haddad just being
somewhat aware that what he is doing will be considered "wrong" in some
way by others, and trying to set up a weasel escape route.

Nice try. You were too stupid to find it, girlie. You had no such

pretend you have some ethical barrier which you won't breach. What
nonsense that is. Let me give you a clue, Sylvia. I want to earn an

That's an interesting tactic you used there. Declaring Sal to be

No. I got as high as E-8 but declined the promotion as I was so

myself.

read from a script. They wanted to know the details of his death and
then, in spite of their grief, asked in one form or another if their
man had died with honor. Bearing a letter describing all, it was an
easy task to simply hand it to them. Instead, I had taken the time to
learn all I could because I expected the questions. I'll never forget
those visits as long as I draw breath.

"All three women were alone with me after I informed them. They didn't

all known of the possibility of this loss and as mothers and a wife

"Corresponding rank"? Idjit! He said he was enlisted. Why do ya suppose
I then asked him what his duties and title were?

"The use of the word 'rank' for Navy enlisted personnel is
incorrect. The term is 'rate.' The rating badge is a combination
of rate pay grade... and rating." [1]

Yes. To clarify: my comment was a question, actually. I was asking you
what it would take to make you and your girlfriends stop bullying your
victim -- tears? His suicide? Or.. what?

To which your response was that I should lie down and die.

Well, there you go, Sylvia. You tried to nitpick me and got snared
in the process. NOW, you have the right message instead of one that
Rick quoted. Since he garbled the attribution, you couldn't be sure.
Garbled? Yes. Go on. Have another go. I can hardly wait.

Ok. NOW you have the primary source and you CAN, indeed, be sure
that I wrote what you quoted. By the way, thanks for citing that
message. That was paraphrased from an article I wrote for Stars and
Stripes many years ago. I actually had to resurrect my WordStar
files from archive to retrieve it from way back then and "remodel"
it a bit to fit the discussion of the moment.

You should be my publicist.

I didn't write the above. Your way of quoting tends to deceive the eye.

On the other hand, she's uncannily able to put herself in the position
of animals on the way to being slaughtered, to the extent that her
ideas have improved the lot of abbatoir animals by a very great deal,
though not obviously to the extent of stopping them from getting the
chop.

This puts a hole somewhat in the commonly-held notion that autistics
have a defective Theory of Mind, or what has been called
mind-blindness: that is, that they're unable to put themselves in
someone else's shoes in the way you suggest. It could perhaps be that
they're perfectly able to see that a person feels a certain way, to
see how they manifest that feeling a certain way, and maybe even to
intuit why they feel a certain way. But they simply don't think it's
of much consequence to the rest of the world.
