Yes war is huge business in the USA & both world wars brought them out of a depression & a recession. Economic dynamics r lost of many ppl.
- Nighthawk

it did bring debt however.
But I would generally say it took the usa out of its slumber. The country had to band together to get things boosted again. Women working during the war continued for awhile after the war boosting production.

Theres probably a lot more on that topic too.

Shame on you!!
- Marwood

No shame on you marwood, your childish behavior is what started all this. Your trolling me daily for 1.5 years is shameless behavior!!! Makita asked you all to stop

Liar!
Shame on you!
- Marwood

No liar here.....only you.
shame shame

you are completely factless ....Ive never had a goal to be a hells angel. Not sure where the hell you get that from.
And youre wrong about snitching too. I did not lodge a complaint.

and no its not us that drive people away its the childish posters of the romper room crew that drive people away. Makita even came out and called you guys childish and told you guys to stop. None of you listen. But asking children to act like adults is impossible.

You mention all your girlfriends, talk about being asked to be a hang around (or hanger on... or fluffer) for the HA, talk about how back problems are 100% "curable," and when people remind you that you said that, you lie and say these are fabrications.

People remember. The north remembers.

You turned on our Mod. You and Nuck4U went to CaptEO and complained about Makita. You are a bold face liar.

And for the record, I don't think you are nearly as stupid as more people think you are.

then you remember incorrectly. I have never been 1 and have never wanted to.
So if you think otherwise its in your mind only. So prove it then, find my posts that say that....

Listen I have a license to practice medicine you or any other here do not. Who the hell are you to say otherwise....and once again my original words have been grossly twisted to things they were never were. All I said was cody hodgson would make a full recovery from that type on injury, provided the injury was correctly diagnosed.

so ya your version IS a fabrication. And the hang around thing is totally a fabrication. You guys post with No facts

and makita told you to stop

Quit this nonsense. Makita has asked for you to stop, why wont you? He labeled your antics as childish, yet you continue.

you and your crew of children are the liars here with your fabrications and twists

Thank you for sharing your revisionist delusions with us you shameful liar. You chased a very good man away because you and the other petulant child complained about other people not accepting your point of view. You are both shameless cowards hiding behind authorities back.

Shame on both of you!!

I really wanted to stay out of this, but you literally have no facts to support this. This is exactly why people are saying you think youre better than everyone, because of comments like that. I recommend working on understanding the tone you type with, read it from perspectives of people and how they might interpret them. Adding words to soften your position goes a long way, just saying

Back injuries are 100% curable, you just don't see it.

Love me some early morning hate!

the delusions are yours.
1. you think its ok to troll someone daily for a year and a half
2. you think its ok to call everyone idiots and dumb fools daily for the past 2 years
3. you think its ok to twist peoples words in such way to make it negative then mock them daily for your twisted version
4. you think its ok to act like a child daily even when the mod tells you to stop\
5. you post factless claims and spew your venom on it to malign me
6. you call me a lair (I am not) yet your twisted versions of things make you a daily liar
7. you make ludicrus claims about me without any remnant of substantiation

shame shame on your behavior. You need a good lengthy ban

Shame on you!!

This forum/comments SUCK right now! Is this a hockey blog or a freaking news site?

You're dilusional. I made my fair share of mistakes but learned to follow Makita's rules. He needed help because of you and what you post. Makita told you to STFU and you just kept acting out. Quite sad you continue disrespecting him and Carol's blog this way. As for your other crusty BS it's not worth deconstructing. Seek a professional.
- Nuck4U

You asked for the reason many in here can't stand you, i posted them. You didn't follow the rules, you claimed to have put me in my place when i stopped responding to you when in fact i was respecting Makita.
Im not an innocent, but i do find you more difficult then a toddler having a tantrum.

Please feel shame for how you've mutated this blog and delete your profile, start a new one and be less antagonistic from the beginning.

When you're alone in your opinion except for a narcissistic chauvinist its time to reassess who you are.

I wonder if Benning told Gadjovich not to hit Pettersson

You claimed and I quote 'his injury was 100 percent curable, 100 percent of the time '. So please don't revise fact.

Also I doubt that you have a medical degree, you may have a physiotherapy degree but that isn't the same thing. I am a paramedic as well as a firefighter, would i claim to have a 'medical degree ' no that's stretching the truth. I do however feel based on your comments that I have more medical knowledge then you, but that's not saying much, is it?

We post with 100 percent fact, 100 percent of the time.

Greetings everyone. Firstly, I need to thank Makita for stepping up and trying to keep things organized and on topic in these forums for the years he was here. He did so because he cared about this place and valued the discourse with fellow hockey fans-Canucks and all others.

We all agree Carol is a gem. She writes everyday, is a professional, and one of our top writers here.

Since we began 13 years ago, it has always been the threads that keep the site vibrant. It has always been fascinating to me that anonymous people can communicate online with each other, nay develop real relationships--good, bad or indifferent.

I'm sorry there is so much negativity on these threads right now. We are here to enjoy and discuss hockey, but human nature does take over eventually. I have a pretty good grasp on what is occurring. There will be a new Mod to help here. In the meantime it will be me.
