You're right. I have never compromised with stupidity, or with those that can't fathom the better idea.
Now, I have compromised plenty with Hood Richardson, and my No. 1 Guy, David Winstead, but only because they are my intellectual equals. I also listen to my doctors, because I respect them, and my one lawyer, because we make a good team, and therefore he respects my intelligence. I also compromise with those that pay me, providing they pay me in full and on time, and providing they don't ask me to do anything unethical or illegal, or just really stupid. And one more thing, I mostly do what wife needs me to do, because I love her very much. That's how I roll.

Thanks for proving my point in this thread, Stan---the word, "COMPROMISE," is not in your vocabulary. What is the problem with being more logical and reach some conclusions---even if it is AGREE TO DISAGREE.

Just more Liberal double talk.
And remember all this when your taxes go up again, and they will. You keep voting for Democrats and blaming the Republicans and it will never change.

Perhaps it was "non-cooperative constant bitching" then, Stan. All I know is we should be far better on debate and compromise ON BEHALF OF all citizens. We pay more than enough property taxes so you folks could accomplish---NOTHING!

I've never whined, and in retrospect, I was right more than 95% of the time.
Your liberal interpretation of actual events will not work here.

I am trying to recognize you, Stan --- all you and Hood did at the Commissioners meeting I have seen is WHINE AND BITCH AND BUCK. Perhaps, you put on another suit when you leave because I enjoy our personal discussions. Neither of us has ever whined there, to my knowledge.
I see no point in ever positioning ourselves so as to not respect the other side or impugn them needlessly. My dad always advised me to never burn bridges you don't have to because you may need that person's help one day! As a amateur photographer, I know I can use Stan's input to get the kinds of shots he makes. However, my little telephoto series entitled "The Girls of Myrtle Beach" is hard to improve, good friends.

We do.
Probably softer since we don't do so damn much whining.

Thanks Gene on the compliment. Like any decent photographer, I'm still learning.

WOW, Stan---great pics, brother!!!
Again I am astounded and wondering what Fracking will do and if we allow oil rigs offshore between the Outer Banks and the pristine Gulf Stream???
