    Where does it say you were there? I looked and couldn't find it anywhere. Funny how you just can't seem to back up your claims with evidence, eh?

    I have a SPELLING ISSUE.

    I am told it is because my Left Brain Hemisphere just simply REFUSES to accept the illogic of such concepts of i before e except after c...sometimes.

    However I do know many laguages and my memory is excellent.

    But I refuse to use spell check as I am trying to get this squared away on my own.

    I was there as a guest as I had known Jim Koplic since his concert promoting days when he worked with Shelly Finkel who now is the Chairman of Strategy and Development for SFX Entertainment.

    Jim and Shelly...and Shelly was a few years back inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.....used to promote all the big 1970's and 1980's acts.

    Shelly also promoted Boxing and thus his induction.

    Jim owns the Comcast Theater in Hartford, Connecticut....which used to be called the Meadows.

    I was a guest the day Rage Against the Machine and a few other bands played.

    Most of the damage occurred after 10 p.m., when the main set of Rage Against the Machine had ended, but before the encore. Meadows officials asked Rage lead singer Zack De La Rocha to ask the audience to settle down and stop hurting one another.

    Jim tried to COVER for Zack by saying Zack tried to help settle down the situation but that was just Jim being Jim.

    This was not the first time that Rage singer Zack De La Rocha had incited violence at a National Venue and I let him know what I thought about him and Zack is a GHETTO WANNABE!!!

    Completely understand...as I am the same way with math...my brain wouldn't accept the teachers "because, that's the way it is" when I wanted things explained instead of, "it's just a rule, learn it!" So I am terrible with math!
    But, I won't blame the teachers for my blocking it out, instead of just learning.

    This reminds me of a joke. If Justin Beiber and Miley Cyrus were drowning, what kind of sandwich would you make? :mrgreen:

    Seriously though, since a grown man would probably drown me in his panic if I was trying to save him, I would choose the little girl. Besides, I have a soft spot for children.

    Actually it is the Xfinity theater and it is officially owned by the city of Hartford and on lease since the 90s and KopliK runs it as owner for LiveNation who has the lease.

    This is true with a lot of people who are Right Brain Hemisphere Dominant.

    Me....I am both.....which means either I can throw a base ball with both arms and be good at Math and Creative.....or I can suffer from Schizophrenia, or be a Sociopath....not conductive to being a Psychopath....or I could just be lucky and be a nice guy.

    I am lucky.

    Yeah....Xfinity is what they are calling it this Month! LOL!!

    Understand venues like this change names like most people change socks!

    Jim didn't want the hassle and the responsibility to the degree he once had as well the INSURANCE PAYMENTS ALONE is enough to to run a small Eastern European Nation!!

    Leasing the property allows Jim to write off 100% of the Lease Payment off the Taxes.

    Best way to run a business even if you own the property to begi with is to LEASE THE PROPERTY BACK TO YOURSELF....but as for being yourself you INCORPORATE.

    Thus you not only are the CEO of the Corp. or President or whatever way one want's to set it up....you also can be the owner of the Property and thus the Corp. writes off 100% of the Payments as as the Properties OWNER you use the Property as a TAX SHELTER as well we all know how EXPENSIVE IT IS TO MAINTAIN SUCH A LARGE COMPLEX.....especially when you have to replace concrete walkways that once had stairs as per the American Disabilities Act.....and especially when you are a silent partner in the Company that does the Concrete Work.

    Shall I go on?

    A panicked Grown Man...and I have seen this happen....would do ANYTHING to try and save himself including using you or anyone else as a FLOATATION DEVICE!!

    They actually try and CLIMB YOU...as if you were connected all the way to the ocean floor.

    Problem is Moses never parted the Red Sea.

    That was a mistranslation as it states 23 times in the Tanakh....MOSES CROSSED THE YAM SUPH.

    Yam Suuph means Reed Sea or Seaweed Sea which was a shallow....1 to 10 foot deep tidal area between the Med Sea and Red Sea.

    Moses and the Hebrews CROSSED this area at low tide.

    The Egyptian Army following several days behind began to cross at the end of low tide and got swamped....got stuck....no one died....and there were no 1000 Feet Towering Seperations of Water.

    That was all made up.

    Yep, and your use of apostrophes also needs work! Do you ever just sit down and drill this stuff? Maybe some "home study" would help.

    No insult or other negative intent. I'm just a bit of a language nerd, as you may have noticed :D

    It has been 2 year.

    really? prove it.
    Except LIveNation owns the lease and he is a regional President for LiveNation not the owner of LiveNation which is publicly traded. (I think I own some)

    Yes I have done that.
    But your so-called friend is the president of the region but is not even on the board of LiveNation.
    Please I would like to find out what else you don't know.

    Hi Durandal,
    No disrespect meant, but the apostrophe in the quote is correct usage; for my own curiosity, where is the error?

    I am a Christian……. I believe that Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus literally walked on water………… so he will be OK!

    I am a Hebraic Roots Christian who actually believes that Moses……….. held up the stick of Joseph and divided the Red or Reed Sea…… so he will be OK!

    I am a student of near death experiences, and I know that Christian Andreason, met Dr. Albert Einstein during his NDE…. .so Einstein will be OK!

    I am not a very good swimmer…… but I can dog paddle with great enthusiasm……. so I better save person #4…………. if this possibly less than wise decision gets both YHWH as well as The Devil laughing………………… well…………. the old promise of it beginning to rain….. in hell….. that is in the Book of Enoch or in the Secrets of Enoch, (if I remember correctly)…… might just get partly fulfilled………… and YHWH and the Devil laughing……….. could indeed benefit all of humanity!

    Were was it made up and why? The Torah story probably isn't true but when you say it was made up what are you talking about.

    That was careless of me, it seems. I wasn't referring to his use of the apostrophe in that particular post, but in general he does misuse them quite a bit, notably with plurals as many others also sadly do.

    Even with some padding, when I try that now, I slowly sink to the bottom, full lungs or not. When I was leaner, I would sink to the bottom like a rock.

    I know from direct personal experience that you are stating nonsense here, nonsense that might get someone killed.

    Surface tension? That's more nonsense. Surface tension can't float anything larger than a bug. Or one of them little lizards that can quickly run across the water. For a human, surface tension has no significant effect at all.

    I can not float without treading water. Lean muscular men can not float without treading water. Lean muscular black men especially will sink like a rock.
