opticians today vs opticians in the past

[Wes]

I am willing to put my money where my mouth is, include calcs, include RGP's, include custom shop work, etc. Amazingly, if you don't agree with me then I must be less skilled, if I am younger I must be less skilled. I enjoy Barry's posts as well, but feel fairly confident I could take him in a challenge as well, throw Wes in as well. What would be the worst that can happen I lose and learn new skills and meet better opticians or I win and they learn new skills and meet a better optician.

I was betting ON you, not against you. Don't be ruining my chance to make an easy buck!

Are you sure now? There might be one station where we have you guys hand drill a Silhouette with one hand tied behind your back. Oh and four shots of Tequila before it starts.

Nothing to add, just wanted to get to 200 posts

Why wouldn't you bet on yourself? I enjoy your posts as well, but push come to shove in a contest one man should be left standing, why wouldn't you want it to be you?

Interesting I think I would pay to be in that contest, I prefer patron silver.

Whatever happened to Win-Win- there is ALWAYS another way to solve a problem. PS if you are serious about becoming a silver supporter we will gladly welcome you and thank you for the support which makes this site available to you.

Hey I don't volunteer for shoving matches! But I'll bet on them. Like Sumo.

Wow I didn't know that supporting patron silver a great tequila opened up so many doors, I also didn't know that your organization was affiliated with a tequila brand.

I prefer patron silver.

I assumed that and of course you would only slug in down out of a Waterford crystal shot glass right?

Hmmmmm Optequila?

Man, I really dislike te-kill-ya. Can it be a nice smooth top-shelf bourbon?

To be authentic, it would have to be from a dirty mason jar served luke warm.

OK you got me!

Actually I was referring to your statement that you were willing to put your money where your mouth was. I thought that quite refreshing in as much as you were beginning to sound like one of those people who always complain about this site, and do nothing to help it along. I must have been mistaken because so far you have not put your money anywhere near your mouth. Talk is cheap, so is tequilla AND some of its PATRON'S. Tread carefully when trying to make someone look like a Buffoon.
Why not try answering the question I posted in the thread above, you will go a long way in establishing some creditability which you seriously lack.

I didn't complain and your post seems a bit harsh, I didn't know that 5 to 10 a month bought credibility. That seems a bit cheap to me. My hesitation is that by subscribing I lose my anonymity I don't see a way to address that and quite frankly I don't see how paying with my time and money makes my posts more palatable.
