| Damn you for tearing me away from "Call Of Duty" for this. By the way, you might like it if you've never played. It's all about pretending to be in the military and stuff.
Full disclosure: I didn't read all of your novella. Jesus Christ, you ramble worse than Greg Allman.
I get the gist, though.
You've certainly exceeded my expectations. I didn't think you could possibly get any nuttier...and yet, here you are.
So, basically, what your big "smoking gun" boils down to is this: jimtreacher.com is registered in my name.
Well, no shit, McMillan and No Life. Anyone can find that out by doing a simple search, and I've never even made any attempt to hide it. Unlike YOU, who goes around deleting every message board thread, web page, or any other shreds of evidence in an attempt to downplay the extent of your lies. Or, so you can spin even more lies out of it in the futile hope that the deleted evidence can't be used to prove you wrong.
Why did I register the domain for Jim? Because "none of your business", that's why. Let's just call it a favor to an online friend whose writing I enjoy and who was having some problems at the time, and leave it at that. See, online friends sometimes do things like that for each other. I wouldn't expect you to know that, however, because all YOU'VE ever done for YOUR online friends is allow them to unkowingly defend your lies for over a year, and then shit all over them by making excuses for it when you finally got cold-busted.
If Jim ever wants to assume control of the domain name www.jimtreacher.com, he's welcome to it. I registered it for him the first time as a gift, after all. I'm not the savviest of webmasters (someone else designed mine, and if it ever crashes I'm screwed), but I figured that when he wanted to take it over it would be a simple matter of switching the registration into his name. I could be wrong about that, though - but it's been working out fine so far, and I'm too lazy to really look into it. You're going to feel pretty stupid when that switchover eventually occurs.
No, scratch that. No matter how stupid you feel, you'll never have the balls to own up to it. You'll just blame the Media, or George Bu$h, or whoever you can blame at the time to make yourself feel better.
Things I will tell you, even though you don't deserve a word of explanation from me for anything:
1. My name is Kevin Parrott.
2. I live in Wilmington, NC.
3. I own my own business.
4. I'm not a warblogger, or Right Wing. The number of posts I've made dealing with the War or politics comes to less than 10% of the material on my blog, but believe whatever you want.
5. I've never personally met Jim Treacher, but he's been an online friend for a few years. Sort of like most of you have never met face-to-face, yet consider each other friends. Or enemies. Or whatever it is you're calling each other this week.
6. I know exactly where Jim lives (hint: several states away), but where that is falls under "none of your business".
7. Jim was blogging for over a year before I ever really knew what a blog was.
8. I blogged on Blogspot for a while, then bought my own site. Jim hated Blogspot like I did but was in no position to buy his own domain, so I bought it for him with the knowledge that he could take over any time he was ready. Mystery solved, Robert Stack applauds from the Netherworld.
Now, anyone on here can do a few minutes of research and find out any of this stuff for themselves. But, they won't. A lot of them would rather continue to blindly believe anything you tell them, despite the fact that you've been proven to pile lie upon lie like a Dagwood Sandwich. And, you've already got this conspiracy theory locked firmly inside the hornet's nest you call a mind, so nothing I say is ever going to change that. You're quite delusional.
"It's become Folk Wisdom that I did this on a regular basis, but in actuality, I only did it that once and it left such a nasty taste in my mouth that I never did it again."
Posts like this are why I suggested you adopt a pen name. What you wrote above is clearly a lie, which can be researched and disproven in seconds, but the eeriest thing is - I think you really believe what you wrote. If that's what your good therapist is doing for you, I sincerely advise you to seek a second opinion.
I know that this is all just another desperate, pathetic attempt at shifting blame and focus away from yourself, and that you somehow feel this is going to take some of the heat off you...but it's not. You keep digging yourself deeper and deeper, Micah, and it's your own fault. Not mine, or Jim Treacher's, or the Media's, or George Bu$h's - or anyone else's, for that matter. You and you alone made this hole in your life, and nothing as bullshitty as this thread is ever going to change that.
I wrote this on my blog here - http://www.kevinparrott.com/archives/000627.html (guess you must have missed it when you were uncovering the Vast Warblogger Conspiracy against you):
"I've never suggested Micah Wright be crucified over this."
After this hilarious "investigative expose" of yours, I couldn't care less, Geraldo. It's nothing more than what you continually earn.
And Jens, if you get the chance to read this before he snatches it down - I meant my apology to you, and I still think you're a stand-up guy for yours. I'm truly sorry you have to keep such shitty company.
Well, look at that. Guess I'm a Ramblin' Man myself, sometimes.
EDITED: guess you don't get html with free accounts, so I cut all of it out.
