Fed up with NEW SCOPE ARRIVES posts!

What's the problem, Shawn? Still stinging over the whuppin' that Clemson
administered to Smokey?

Cheer up, old boy! Next year your beloved Vols will have the only
quarterback in history named Joe Bob Cooter.

You know who cares, who really gives a damn that some over paid yuppy
creep
just received his new 3" APO on an alt aaz mount of a 14" SCT and then
asks whats good to look at with the scope. I mean who gives rats ass.
That's one of the problems with the whole amateur astronomy world, there
are too damn many AMATEURS. It used to be that it took some skill to use a
scope, you learned the night sky, you star hopped you figured out where
your ass was and you didn't need both hands and a government agency to
tell
you where it was.
Now we have any silly **** with a few bucks to burn out there buying these
new GOTo scopes , scopes mind you that are at best a work in progress or
like the MEADE LXD absolute complete ****.
So the get the damn scope, think that have the thing put together, give
the
god damn thing some idiot name and drag the 90lb pile of junk outside and
try and figure out which end is up. Well ****.

My favourite would be searching, finding and _seeing_ Uranus, using any
non-toy telescope. Telescope. NOT binoculars! After 20+ years of
observing, I still haven't seen it.

From the January 13, 2004 Sky & Telescope Skywatcher's Bulletin:

Uranus (6th magnitude) is within 1 degree of brilliant Venus on the
evening of the 14th and 15th -- but you'll need binoculars or a small
telescope to see it.

Maybe you should start your own s.a.a. - moderated. That way you can screen
out all these posts about telescopes from overpaid muppy creeps...like me.
I forgot what all yuppy stands for but the *m* is for Mexican. See now you
even have beaners in this newsgroup, what the hell is the universe coming
to. I have all this disposable income with which I'm going to buy an 8 inch
SCT with all the goodies, even GPS. Eat your heart out.
