Bummy, Mcvey, and Mendoza, thank you all for your kind words.. I truly have been so aggravated by some vicious posters who call me a "damn liar", spouting that I am "a young guy "posing"as an "old timer" for some nefarious reason which escapes logic...What sane person would choose to be my age, rather than a young man once again.? Would they like it if it was their father having to defend himself from vicious lies and innuendos ? I think not...What gets me blasting angry {no good for my B.P.] is that I have offered to wager any amount of money proving my age, by showing my birth certificate and Navy discharge papers to a moderator on ESB, winning proceeds to go to a favorite charity, several times, but the offer has been conveniently declined...WHY?....It is so easy to hurt people from afar on this forum, and not having to meet them face to face...One character, whose only claim to fame is posting indecipherable gibberish claimed I am a "racist", because I once posted I liked Lucas Mathysse, and Gennady Golovkin, both white, and this Einstein was SUSPICIOUS of ME...I told him where to stick his suspicion...I responded to this creatin that my favorite fighters happened to be Beau Jack, who I saw in my first main event in 1942, and Ray Robinson, Ike Williams, Joe Louis, Mathew Sadd Franklin, Joe Frazier, etc who happened to be black, but his response was NO RESPONSE...Well guys I appreciate your kind words of support, and to my attackers I promise them I won't get old again...cheers guys.:good:good:good
Well said Burt. I agree with Bummy, McV & Mendoza, you need to stick around fella...as my Mum (also of the great generation) used to say to me "don't let the b*stards grind you down".
