Will you be sending a decoder ring to help figure out what you're
trying to say?
3. this "hermit" isn't the one who can't go for a walk without a
handgun
on some trails in MN, out of cell range for 911 but closer to varied
populace than your remote hide in AZ.
And yet I get 5 bars from inside my "remote hide" living room. What
have the cell companies got against *your* "varied populace"? Maybe
you could donate a drum of DEET to encourage the techs to bring your
service up to rural AZ standards.
I occasionally carry a handgun
Hahaha! *I* occasionally carry a handgun. *You* have guns on the
brain. I used to think it was driven by your feebleoldfartness, but
after reading some of your anti-muslim fear mongering, it seems that
your elevator just doesn't go all the way to the top anymore, assuming
it ever did.
while your misanthropy compels you to live in off-grid isolation
distant even from nearest civilization
I've corrected the same misunderstanding several times now. It's clear
that you prefer to keep lying.
, the garden spot of Kingman, AZ
where the nicest domocile in town has wheels.
Hoo boy! So your new strategy is to cut me snorf by denigrating a
place... where I don't live! Strike one.
Kingman certainly has its share of gummer-type accommodations, but I
thought you were fine with that. Anyway, let's check for wheels on
something less than "the nicest domicile" in Kingman. A couple of
examples -

So where are the wheels? Strike two.
And how would you say those places compare to yours? Strike three.
My quote yesterday - "Increasingly he's (foreman) escalating his dopey
rhetoric to include ever-wilder claims made from whole cloth" Gosh,
where do I get ideas like those?
BTW, I may have visited the nicest home in Kingman, way fancier than
the examples above. 100 acres IIRC, ~half mile concrete driveway,
ridiculously fancy home, life-size animal statuary "roaming" the
grounds. Feel free to put up some photos of your place so we can see
how it compares. Or risk being accused of living in a "hide". LOL
OK, it's hard to see the wheels on
some of the mansions...
Sure, but readers need only join you in pretending, right?
Ah, the "if I don't know about it, then it must not exist" argument...
again! Why not look up the facts instead of trying to extrapolate
based on your limited experience and critical thinking abilities?

This does not create gas-pumping jobs. It merely requires
already-employed attendants of gas stations to assist a very few who
are unable to pump for themselves.
As I said, you're hanging your hat on semantics. You implied that
skilled folks hadn't anywhere to work if things were slow in their
fields. Will you ever admit being wrong about that? Of course not.
Regardless, our favorite whipping boy's case tells the tale. He said
he's a licensed electrician for gawd's sake. Do you imagine that no
electricians have been hired in all the time he's claimed to be
looking for work? Oh wait, could it be that you no more believe he's
an electrician than I do? Too funny.
I have never seen a MN driver unable to pump his or her fuel,
handicapped plates and wheelchair vans included.
Well heck then! There must not be any.
Back when there were
pump jockeys there were those of us that would rather be served than
get out of the warm car when it was 20 below, but that was long ago.
Pumping gas at 20 below, and nice folks who volunteer to join culls.
What more could anyone ask?
The only place I've seen gas pumped by an attendant in the last decade
was on Lake Minnetonka at a marina where a very comely young lass was
quite happy to jump aboard my boat and pump a few gallons at price
approximating that of Chanel #5. Weather loomed, I was far from the
launch and low on fuel. She said she often would pump a couple
hundred gallons into a boat on Friday night and do it again for the
same boat on Sunday. 'Tonka is a rich folks playground of 10,000
acres, also a superb fishery. I bought 5 gallons, all I needed to get
back to the launch before the storm hit. Very pricey fuel, but a
memorable attendant so what the hell.
I never tire of your ability to talk in irrelevant circles rather than
admit to the obvious.
