I'm wondering what purpose is served by consitantly using a fake name(shark, jock,jaded naievty) and representing yourself as a fraud/phony. I unerstand doing it as Phillip stated when a poster wanted to weigh in on a sensitive or controversial issue. Other wise fuck off. I can only laugh at "sharks, "jocks" ( which bye the way we all know is used to support testicles)and other Mickey Mouse crck pots. Shark I don't know MacD but I couldn't help in noticing some of your comments like the one below. You are probably the type that runs crying to a boss or other authority figure because you're a damen cry baby that is always tattle telling and finger pointing. I bet you are still drinking Infamil and eating mashed carrots. LOL Comment 35 posted by Shark on March 10, 2004 05:27 PM: Phillip, thanks. I was about to ask you to use your technical expertise and expose MacD in yet another blatant lie. Let a dead dog lay, please! I apologized to Sandra because I said some really harsh things. So why stick you nose in. I wish know it respect Phillips wishes and stick to the NAACP Image Awards.

Shark, Duh Dumb ass I figured it was a joke. It sounded more like an of beat sarcstic remark about Luther's music. You're probably an Axl Rose fan. "SHARK", did your mommy name you that or are you just another nameless shit stirrer?

Roger: "Maybe I'm naieve but I'd like to know why you "Shark" and/or Goldfish thinks Luther Vandross is responsible for "more gay marriages". It was a friggin' joke. And Phillip, Duane, and Jaded-- please don't insist Roger/Sandi stick to the subject. And don't get between them, either. This is a mating ritual between two garrulous pinheads. They'll pummel each other into a sexual frenzy, then start trading nekkid jpgs and fawning IMs. Just sit back and watch. Before you know it, they'll be starting their own family of hyperactive Christian Lexicographers and little aspiring paralegalisms.

Sandra, I really don't know anything about you but what I do know is (when I'm not hyped up)that every human-being has a heart and soul. Everyone feels the same kind of pain and emotions. My point is think before you speak, because I usually don't. That is my weakness.

It's been almost a year since Luther Vandross had a stroke. Maybe I'm naieve but I'd like to know why you "Shark" and/or Goldfish thinks Luther Vandross is responsible for "more gay marriages". Just wondering.

Jaded Nav! What do you meen by veteran stepping stone. If it's a so called experienced mentor that's not a veteran. I spent a short time on active duty in the US ARMY and then in the National Guard as a Military Police Officer.

Jaded Naievty, Who pulled your damn chain, and just what great things have you done? Punk Ass! (Besides play with youself). You probably have never had a significant other outside your Boo Hoo "Berkley" Paper. I bet when you look at it, it turns you on. If my profiling skills are correct you think Axl Rose is cool and still secretly breast feed from your mom. As far as part of your screen name "Jaded" you wouldn't know jaded if it bitch smacked you like a cheap whore. Actually 90% of my Investigating involves child custody and children who's welfare and best interest are being compromised. It's one thing to come across an indictment no one knew about on a questionable father who has been charged with two counts of child rape (not his own), but it's another to put a face to the child's name. That doesn't even scratch the surface on all the thing's I've seen. Jaded my ass! You're probably jaded on gay porn and Cheese Wiz. Go back to Berkley and spend some time at the Star Trek convention... I'll get to SMU later. Which SMU?

Jaded Naivety, you would probably be late for your own Funeral..LOL. If you actually understood the posts you would see why there was an argument about degrees in the 1st place. Neither one of us is claiming that to have a degree means you are the cleverest person in the world, but please feel free to assume so. I think I have stated the virtues of common sense many times. In any case, I am not sure why you think you would be in any position to choose b/w me and anyone. I very much doubt that.

I think, (and I am fairly certain that others would agree with me)that you are both acting idiotic and childish. I can see that you two equate knowledge with a piece of paper called a "degree". I can assure you that having a "degree" in anything does not show anything other than that you can do homework, and grind through 4 or more years. My formal education came from Berkely and SMU,(incidentally I don't use either one in my current position, by choice) but I have learned many many things of true use from those, as I believe you put it "stepping stones".... you are both the epitome of the masses that are incapable of free thought, and think that the end-all be-all is a "degree". I would choose a veteran "stepping stone" over you 9 out of 10 times. grow up.

Rog, no need to apologise. I did not take it to heart and I wasn't offended. Everything is all in the heat of the discussion. You are the bigger person, for apologising:) Also, you are not alone. I am a christian and I am yet to act like one so don't beat yourself about that. It's a shared palava:)and please do not feel less of a man. Pour que?! We may well rumble again but we'll get over it and move on. I hope this apology does not mean u will quit calling me a skank crack whore? I expect u to keep up the good work:) Enjoy.

No problem, Roger, thanks for the comment. I appreciate the further clarification about Dave. Um, one last thing, though. This post should be about the NAACP Image Awards. It would be nice of comments were somewhat related to that! :-)

Phillip and Sandra, First of all Phillip I was surprised and impressed at the above postings. As far as misspelling your name it could happen again because my middle name is Philip with one L and I commonly use it in lieu of Roger if I am traveling during an investigation. Secondly to Sandra: I'm sorry for calling you names especially a SCW. I don't know you and have no reason to act out toward you. Phillip or no one else is asking me to do this. I'm a Christian even though I don't live like one or talk like one. All I can say is that I was less than a man for saying that to you, whoever you are. So again, sorry... As for David (Dave)he uses my system for use in accessing certain paid legal programs and software for work related projects. He's not around much, but I have secured the system so he can only access what is relavent to a tracing. I haven't read all of what he has posted but I will apologize for that to.

I meant Degreed ! If a spelling error is all you have, then quit crying. I'm sure I could scan your postings and find misspelled words. I am giving you web sites and other info and all you can do is act like a spoiled 13 year old. Does the truth about the American legal system bother you that bad. If you tried to practice in an American Court, some good trial Attorney's that I know would grind you up and spit you out like a peice of rancid meat.

Jesus, Mary & Joseph. "DEGREEDED"? What the F* is DEGREEDED? Look, just leave me alone. You are depressing me. There is no word like DEGREEDED for crying out loud. And if you are supposed to be a Paragon of better American education then American education is a disgrace and I would rather attend the University of Basra in good old Iraq than attend the sort of schools you've attended and come out a complete imbecile not fit for kindergarten and not even with the knowledge of a 5 yr old English girl being homeschooled by a trainee teacher. Scram. you've entertained me long enough with your own particular brand of dumbness. What next, the chants of U.S.A, U.S. A? You are an apology. A disgrace and should have your passport taken away from you. Those schools should be shut down. The founders jailed and the students sent to rehab. DEGREEDED! Good heavens! A person as daft as you belongs to no country. Not even the United States of America. No, I will not check any more sites you send me to. These sights are a menace to the educated. If we had known illiterates would prove to turn out like you have, we would have insisted on paying your way through a decent college. Don't you have any talent? take up a sport. Academia is not 4 u, sugar.

Sandra, Please type in this. It list every college in every state in the USA that offers all types of paralegal program's. OH Yeah, brace yourself for the SHOCKER! There are also Master Degree programs. Please don't pass out. That further supports why a good USA educated Paralegal is as good as one of your average attorneys. Sorry to be tne messenger of bad news. I bet it also bothers you that people like me a PI or actually a bail bondsmen like my friend Dave can go anywhere, anytime any place where a suspected criminal my be hiding and break down the door even at night with kids in the house. With out a warrant. I actually do some of the skip-tracing while Dave and "Big Josh" break down the doors and drag their ass out.

It is because America is the greatest country in the world. We are smarter, richer and more powerful than any country in the world. The Attorney's and the legal system here is more advanced and decades ahead of countries like yours. Hence the need for DEGREEDED PARALGAL's not the sub par legal assistants in your country. We are so superior in the law that the very best DEGREEDED PARALEGAL in the USA is the equivilent to an average attorney in your country as well as others. Leave it up to the good ole USA to set the bar higher.

TWO YEAR DEGREES AND FOUR YEAR DEGREES IN PATRALEGALISM? I am outraged. You are a fool so I don't believe you but if this is true then this is the cause of all the problems in America. What a complete departure from law as known since time immemorial by the world at large. Jesus Christ. What people use common sense to do they've made a degree out of it in America. Bloody Nora! What next? A degree in FILE CLERKERY? or Clerkism? You go to a "community college" for 4 years to come out and work as a File Clerk? You should even be more ashamed for revealing more information about this travesty, Roger. Can we ignore each other for a while now? You've saddened me. I know you are a lost cause, but to tell me that there are colleges of lost causes is really upsetting. Run along now Rog, somewhere I fear a village OR a community college:) is being deprived of an idiot.

Sandra dear,I don't know where you are from but, if you are an attorney I sure as hell wouldn't want you on my side. As I showed you above not only are there text books with the word Paralegalism in the title, if you check most all community collegs offer a 2 year degree and some are now offering 4 year degrees. I for once wish good ole Philip would research this one and end your whining about the word "Parlegalism" Would a real lawyer or degreed legal assistant please help me shut her pie hole about this subject. Again here below is the peice I posted above. I have even given you a site to find it. www.compareshopbooks.com Introduction to Paralegalism: Perspectives, Problems, and Skills by William P. Statsky Published: 08 May, 1997 ISBN: 0314201475 List Price: 92.95 Sandra from posting #52 "Still, it would not be fair if I did not tell you, and I mean it sincerely, from a Lawyer to a Paralegal..There is no word as paralegalism (check your dictionary) you went to a school that should never have existed and had no clue what they were doing to have handed out a textbook with the title you claim..and more importantly, check the definition of degree..THERE IS NO DEGREE IN PARALEGALISM. Take care. Enjoy:)"

Ah, just got an email from one of the people that loved you today Rog. I've been told there's even more than one book. There's one by a Kimberly ransdell or something..We note though that these courses are American based and all these authors are American. LOL. Figures:) I should have known. Downright typical. There is a reason it's called the ENGLISH language. Maybe, you want to pick the 2nd book up Rog, might help you out. I still refer you to the Oxford dictionary or the all knowing Thesaurus, you will find that indeed there is no word like Paralegalism and shame on those authors for misleading a certain, hopefully small, section of young America.

Thank you Phillip. Roger, listen and listen carefully, I will not say it again. There is no word like PARALEGALISM and there is no DEGREE in Paralegalism. I hate it when the little people refuse to learn. I have checked like you've asked me to. I am a Lawyer. I have no problem learning new things. I had no fear in checking because I am quite confident in my knowledge. I don't know everything. I mightn't know a lot infact. Nevertheless, what I know, I know. Such a book does exist from the author you've named. However, I am sure if you send an email to Statsky, he will tell you himself, that there is no word like Paralegalism in the English language. Authors do it all the time..make up a word, sometimes by adding a hyphen..like..paralegal-ism..or they coin a phrase. Now, the reason you are still arguing with me and I am confdently telling you as it is, is simply because I have a university education and you do not. When you get to my stage you dont allow yourself to be force fed information when it comes to academics. You question its origin and its authenticity. If any of the poor souls that attended that 6 part course in "paralegalism" had had the brain God gave a cockroach maybe some of you might have asked your tutors or Statsky what Paralegalism means. I think it is clear from reading what your lectures were to consist of that you were just learning administrative tasks. Adding ism to the word Paralegal was maybe Statsky's way of making Paralegals feel they were doing a degree course. I'm afraid a mere adding of "ism" cannot make Paralegals have the same know how as people with Law degrees. There's a reason its an LLb and being a Paralegal is like being a secretary. You can not go to university to become a Paralegal, please stop making a fool of yourself. I pity those children you work with. I note you have shown me no proof of what a degree in "paralegalism" is called. PLG? PPL? Oh, forgot to add..even one of the senior partners had a field day with you Rog:) I got them to log on and read your post..LOL. I'm getting a free drink for bringing them such amusement on what was a stressful day for all of us. I have logged on now and you are just pure stress relief:) I think Mr Statsky can get away with that book on little people like you. Let me assure you that he wouldn't dare walk into a decent Law firm or an even half decent one and argue the merits of his word. I bet you he is a Lawyer himself. Lawyers are known to make up words. He might even be applauded for coming up with that and thanked for trying to improve the quality of Paralegals. Still, I bet you, no person with a University Education would attend such a course because that is like 7 steps down. It's made for those who can not afford a uni education or are not smart enough to become Lawyers or even go to uni. Thats your prob, Rog. Inside you is an attorney at law desperate to jump out but sadly your retarded brain can't accomodate your dreams.

And to answer the next question, it does not appear that Roger and Dave are the same person, either. Both use the same dialup internet provider, so the IP addresses are often the same. It has also been suggested to me that their style and focus are very similar, but Roger has explained that he is acquainted with Dave, and I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. So it appears that MacDiva, Shark, Sandra, Judy, Roger, and Dave are six separate people. If I've missed any others, feel free to email me at the link at the top left of the page. Thanks. P.S. Remember, too, that it isn't actually against the rules to use more than one identity, though I take a dim view of people conversing with themselves. We allow for multiple identities primarily so that people can make personal statements about sensitive issues without damaging the image they have built under their normal persona, not so people can play games and falsify widespread support. What is against the rules, always, is posting a comment as another existing person at Blogcritics.

No, Sandra, it isn't favoritism. As everybody around here seems to forget, I receive zero compensation of any sort for doing anythin here - the same as everybody else. Combine that with the fact that I take posters MacDiva and Shark more seriously than non-poster Roger, and the fact that Roger's suggestion wasn't as directly stated as MacDiva's accusation, and there you have it. Apples and oranges. But it is true, I have checked the records, and the comments from Sandra Smallson share nothing in common address-wise with any comments from anybody else. In other words, Judy is not Sandra.

Sandra, Below is futher info for your Pea sized brain. www.compareshopbooks.com is one place you can find it. I guess next you're gonna tell me that the Black's Law Dictionary by Garner doesn't exist either. You are the type that the more you say the more stupid you look to others.

I'm sitting here looiking at a book entitled "Intrduction to Paralegalism" by author William P. Statsky. Term Paralegalism can even be found all over the internet. I'm sure if anyone cares they're smart enough to use the net to find the truth and/or the book. Just another example of how stupid you portray yourself. Idiot!
