The question is why was this a surprise? Tommy should realize by now
his interpretaion of "reasonable" is quite different from anyone elses.
Also, why was it a problem? Is't tommy bringing in $12,000/ month? Why
bitch about a $250 dinner bill to celebrate your 80th birth day?

$250 is not unreasonable for a fancy restaurant.

I think that we are all aware of Tom's financial situation, and spending
this much on one meal seems extravagant.

Personally, I don't spend extravagantly on restaurants since I want to
use my retirement money for other purposes. No problem spending $40-75
per person occasionally, but $125 per person would not be something
would feel happy about. Eating at home I spend about $3 per day per
person and I don't skimp.

What is it that you think you knolw about my financial situation? Since I
have just given a toital of $60,000 to my brothers as gifts maybe you
ought to listen to Liebermann telling everyone that the car I bought was
for twice what he claimed it was worth according to Kelly Blue Book. After
all there isn't anything that Liebermann doesn't knoiw about anything and
you believe him. Liebermann even told everyone that there was no water
behind the dam at the mouth of Cull Canyon after I said that it had been
replaced with loose mud and he called that a lie even after I published a
picture of a sign saying "Keep Out - Deep Mud".

Seems to me that you all hate being part of life's losers, rather than
appreciating what you have. Liebermann has his welfare, Flunky has
employer to happily scew every day, Slocomb is happily a blowhard and
Krygowski who knows nothing about medern bikes can tell us that people who
do own modern bikes should never have a problem with them. But, those who
can, do, and those who can't, teach. And those of us that became well to
do, doing, can laugh in your faces. Your own deep state has shown you what
the think of you by making your retirement pay worthless.

    Steven, that was both mean and uncalled for. Please allow me to appologize. It is difficult to be polite when you're constantly being attacked by the likes of Liebermann, Flunky and Krygowski. It would be fine if these people could actually know much about bicycling but only Flunky has a passing acquaintance with modern bikes and he will scream exactly the opposite from me despite having the experience to know better.

As soon as you publish something that's right, I'll agree with you. FWIW, I agreed with your position on helmets, from both a safety and performance perspective.
