Hey Eta

So you think Musk is "simping" ( it's not a word : )with Trump in Pensilvania at a little rally ?

Trump is going Back to Butler , Pensilvania .

Perhaps you have forgotten that was where Trump was Shot !

It's going to be bigger than Texas !

He said he would Come Back and views This appearance as an Obligation .

Vance and Musk will appear with him .

Great to see Musk out there Publicly endorsing Trump .

About time ALL the Dials were turned to neutral .

Remember how Sneaky Zuckerberg was last Election , slipping $400m into Democrat coffers .

He has had to pull his head in after fessing up to Congress , about Censoring Americans .

Good morning Heeby, I like the fact you are posting Lou Reed but if you are after the original and best lineup of the band playing Sweet Jane I give you this and as heard in Festival Hall (Melbourne) in August '74........... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5MHovTke4Q

I have to disagree
The best version I think is Rock and Roll animal

"Great to see Musk out there publicly endorsing Trump, about time all the dials were turned to neutral."
So endorsing Trump is neutral, but I guess if he endorsed Harris it would be bias.
Classic MAGA logic.
It seems like in order to like Trump you have to share many of his character traits.

I read it as providing some balance as most of the media and even celebrities are out to get Trump, so it is good to see someone like Musk stand along side Trump and help provide balance.

Suppose I’m dumbfounded by lunacy then.

Why would you change your name from one thread to the other ? See, I’m a bit of a curious fella, I like to know what makes people tick.

Have you got a little game going on with yourself ? Hide and seek ?

Hey Heeby

You mentioned my old name , Hutchy19 .

Hard to believe but Hutchy was more unpopular than Pop D and got Sent Off .

I came back as needed longterm surf forecasts and no ad Cams !

I have found there are certain " Untouchables" on SN .

Some people with so much Cred , like Stu , that I have to bow to out of shear respect , for what they do or have done .

Please have fun and be nice .

You seem smart enough to work out who these guys ( no girls unfortunately ) are .

When I first saw that Heeby had posted a bunch of music clips in the US thread in the early hours I thought, great, birds of a feather, now juliang has a friend to interact with in the wee hours while everyone is asleep instead of mumbling to himself in the dark. Alas no.

By the way, adam12 could have at least acknowledged Pop Downs mastery in the use of the paragraph. Breaks those cryptic writings down to bite sized titbits, bit of an oversight on his part, but yes an excellent post

@flipout
I don’t really need someone to interact with at that hour .
Quite independent
I don’t really get on with that other guy anyway .
Although it is quite cathartic when you can insult and abuse someone.
And not have to worry about the
consequences.
Although I think the other guy is getting paranoid about this thread .

Yep, Been looking at the closing gap. The US political process to elect a leader is pretty fascinating.

Heeby, Juliang. Whichever one you are.

At no stage did I have a go at you for your name choices. Check your facts pal.

Go back to understand what you wrote.

I clearly asked you why you use two different names on Swellnet.

See, the cynical mind in my scone is suggesting that you are either hiding something or trying to hide your real Swellnet identity from others or the StuHammer, I think the latter because of his constant references to your habits on a particular thread.

I find it comical that you thought my name was Alfred Wallace.

What kind of parents would bestow that name onto their kid ?

And to think that I would use my real name here and then talk about plants that can make you go nuts or as you say , illegal. Again comical.

Years ago I did use my real name but opted recently with the ever increasing acts of scamming to change it to one of my life’s idols.

Nothings illegal in your own backyard.

If you haven’t already worked it out, plants and their biologies fascinate me. It’s been my working life.

I just find you a strange but interesting character, like all of us. AW

@ AW
It’s a bit ironic having my motives questioned by a 200 year old , explorer , naturalist,
philanthropist , geographer, biologist and illustrator.
And an anonymous man/woman , who claims to be a good tube rider, spykans wants to know where your evidence is for that .
As I said if you close your Swellnet subscription, you still have a profile name., so it doesn’t cost any more money
So maybe I can use 2 names for the same
reason , everyone else uses 1 or 2? fake names,
So if there possibly is ASIO or CIA or scammers watching , 2 names with different emails would be harder to trace than 1
And it gives you something to wonder about
But I could stay with 1 name if I wanted
Or indeed get another fake name.
It’s all optional.
You guys are so limited

It took my ex to enter meno ono to see the light and tell me to hit the High Road .

At 60 decided to join a Melbourne Dating site , as had no Wing Men or Women .

Jumped on SN as Hutchy19 .

The dating site was Melbourne in England and I lasted about 3 months on SN .

I only stayed on FB and got Catfished , really ( lost no money :)) .

Hutchy wasn't meant for Social Media .

As I said , I came back 12-18 months later , for LT Surf Reports and promised myself to NOT Comment on the Forums .

As I was meeting mates at Byron last Nov , I asked 1 Q .

Something like , what's the surf going to be like at Byron in 4 weeks and within 1min , Udo said Gday Hutch .

With Guys like Udo and Adam Syntax Sniffer Adam12 , I had NO hope .

I tried to change my name recently to Devine Madman by cancelling and resubscribing , but Stuffed Up something , again .

I try and write cryptic stuff that can be interrupted in many ways , for fun .

The Devine Madman and Pop Down are different and just two spots on my strange Spectrum .

Those two strange Cats could chat crap all day and would even give me , the heeby jeebies .

They would give everyone Road Rage :) !

Hutchy , I think , has apologised for being a huge a hole !

If not , I am sorry , for my behaviour !!!!

Especially to one old incredible board shaper in Victoria .

Sorry mate !

I think you have done a good job in your transformation from, Hutchy to Popdown, Hutchy was pretty out of control like a Cyclone that hit fast and hard, Popdown still has his say but is much more well behaved, more like a welcome late arvo summer change.

And i dig this breaking every sentence thing up, its super easy to read.
