for entertainment value only. com'on mark give us some movie clips to bash.... LOL
Mr. Biggerstaff, I've debated on sending this message and I do so with hesitation as I'm not sure of your true intentions or the origin of your obvious distrust/skepticism of myself and MIKP. I have a comprehensive list of all posts from a handful of Ihubbers as our attorney recommended it; Before taking any action, I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt- in case you truly are misinformed.
You may simply be a paid basher and that is what it is; but I don't think so. I think you are someone that got involved with another company early on, was wronged somehow and came to blindly distrust anyone and everyone who was within a 100 mile radius. The posts are very personal and in reviewing your posts, historically - on our board and otherwise, I've identified the fact that your feelings stem from whatever went down at EESO last year.
I can understand your frustration to some extent, however I also noticed that your comments went quickly from being positive, to sarcastic, to downright defamatory in many regards. I strongly feel you have the wrong idea about my role in certain regards as it relates to the past, me as a person and our company and its goals/directives; That said, I wanted to invite you- all preconceived notions aside- to call me at 260-249-7906, email me (info@mikethepikeprods.com) or simply stop by our office Monday or Tuesday if you were open to a discussion; I'm not looking to 'win' anyone over and you have every right to your opinions; but if you truly stand for what you say you stand for, I think you'd not only be a fan of what we're doing and why we're doing it.
I'm not thrilled in any way the manner in which you choose to express your feelings; however I am an open-minded person and I believe much of what's wrong with today's world is due to miscommunication. So--- that's my deal. If you'd be more comfortable- you may invite hope2retire as well as it seems you two communicate quite a bit and he, too, was disheartened by events that are unrelated to our company as well; but he seems like someone worth explaining things to based on the chronology of his posts.
I have a feeling I know one or both of you, but only in passing or in a tertiary introduction; as well, I believe you may be a neighbor of Dave Dalton's- but not making any assumptions... If you're not interested, by all means, continue doing what you do; but I think it would be a gross injustice if you truly stand for what you say you do and were to do so without the proper DD I'm offering.
My wife is asleep with our new baby and I've chosen to take this 2 hour down time at the hospital this weekend to make the offer and it won't be made again as my focus is on MTP and not on debating with bashers; however, on the flipside- I, too, will go out of my way for justice and fostering communication toward that end is part of my M.O. and I feel until you have solid basis with which to make defamatory comments, you haven't truly served anyone but yourself. I say this with much respect and for you to think about personally- not as an attack or something I plan to raise a flag with as a one-up.
have a nice day,
Mark B. Newbauer
