Rye Catcher is the one and only Wry Catcher

Wry Catcher......Wry catcher.


I seem to remember an authoritarian leftist without a liberal bone in his body who called himself that. As I recal, he had all the de rigueur leftist talking points down pat, but wasn't able to reason, analyze or indulge in anything close to original thought. He even used to insult anybody who did offer something original instead of hackneyed as indulging in what he called an " idiot gram".

I sure hope this new fellow with the sound alike name can do a whole lot better than the extremely predictable screed of last one.

Well now, I need to respond to this long ad hominem with an open mind.

First and foremost I need to read from the person so fearful of dogs (to know I'm a dog owner and Roxy is well trained in protecting her owner...but I digress) that what are my "leftist talking points".

I have posted comprehensive posts in the past on gun control, public education, the Tax Fraud of 2017, abortion, voting rights and ID's, Addiction, health care, and generally most wedge issues.

Suggesting my comments are not original is fair, but in any debate most of the participants rely on past learning, cobbled from many sources. As for my comments being "leftist", we clearly differ. My political ideology is to the left, if what is understood that the left is pro WE the People and anti authoritarian. I am using that frame of reference what I support, democratic republicanism.

well, that dashes any hopes I might have had in regards to a new and improved Wrycatcher

where did you get that I am afraid of dogs? I have a Great Pyrenees I love very much.

what kind of dog do you have? You strike me as a toy poodle, shitzu kind of guy, but one never can tell.

The mentally challenged one appears to have mistaken the word "dogma" for "dog". Steer clear of this fool.

i dont care what these people say about you Wry....i enjoy jousting with you....if everybody here had cookies and milk with each other it would be one boring place....

True, but don't disparage cookies and milk:

“Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.”

. . . I think you forgot to mention he lacked any semblance of a sense of humor.

For the record, "Wry" and "Catcher" are connected from the book by Bob Uecker. I too wore the tools of ignorance for 12 years.

Quotes form Bob Uecker:

When I came up to bat with three men on and two outs in the ninth, I looked in the other team's dugout and they were already in street clothes.

The way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up

Career highlights? I had two - I got an intentional walk from Sandy Koufax and I got out of a rundown against the Mets.

O.K.

Thanks for telling us that.

Might I make a recommendation? Put that explanation in your signature, because it really isn't "ignorance."

Most folks would agree with me, that you are being arrogant, pompous, and assumptive.

Everyone is going to make the safe assumption I just made if you don't put that explanation in your signature and they will all think you are just an agnsty liberal late 20-30 something prog. douche bag.

Believe or not, when you aren't being a super arrogant prick, I agree with Mr. Dresden, it IS nice to have deep thinkers around here. Don't be so dogmatic all the time, nor assume you are smarter than everyone, and you won't generate so much loathing.

Trust me, it is not ignorance that will lead folks to make this assumption, it is your very specific individualized experience. Kudos to that.

Dood, Dood, Dood -- don't you realize you are THIS close to earning one of his dreaded idiot grams?

Just imagine his surprise and confusion if his doctor ever orders up a cat scan.

Somehow my PW disappeared, and the only manner in which I could log on was to log in with a new nom de plume and a new PW.

I've appealed to the mods to resurrect Wry Catcher and they have been very helpful. However, the last comment from flacaltenn was to provide my e-mail an the Admin. to aid me.

Sadly Rye Catcher suddenly lost the ability to have a PM and was not allowed to respond to his last post. Rye is too new to use the PM system, even though Rye did have several conversations with the mods prior to the last.

For the time being Rye will be the same old liberal Democrat taking on the best and the worst posts with substance, thought and hopefully thoughtful provoking for the misguided.

Happy Holidays to all.

Rye (aka Wry)

does it feel weird to change it?
