FABULOUS WINE TASTING EVENT
Yesterday, I told you about my fabulous wine tasting event in Sosua where my special offerings, etc., got rave reviews from the sophisticated locals.

There was only one disagreeable incident during the otherwise fabulous event, when one man after taking a sip of my famous Ducksplatt del Pantherpiss, refused to smile as I took his picture! Indeed, he had the nerve to spit it out, right onto the plate of hors d’oeuvres, an assortment of choice animal sphincters, which cost me a staggering 100,000 pesos, and that was just for the sphincters alone! It did NOT include the Christie crackers on which the sphincters were tastefully arranged!!!!!

Well, immediately I called 911, and the police soon arrived and dragged the screaming man away. I couldn’t believe that anyone could be so crass as to shout: “That swill was flavoured with rat’s assholes, NOT skunk assholes!” When he appears in court next year to face charges of making insane accusations at a prime social gathering, and using foul language to boot, I will ensure that the full force of the law is brought down upon his head!

Now, to more agreeable matters. You will remember in a previous post how I told of how I almost slept with the late, Diana, Princess of Wales. I did not tell you then, that the name ‘Wales’ in both our names is not an accident. I, in fact, am also of royal blood as my ancestors were fierce Welsh warriors in the Middle Ages. I am a direct descendant of one of the wildest, most uncontrollable, and fiercest of all the rulers of the feudal lands that now constitute modern Wales.

His name was Cadwallon ap Ieuaf. The modern English translation of this name is, “Brian, lord asshole of all the Wales”. Interestingly, Cadwallon, my ancestor, had a short reign, from 985 to 986 AD, when history tells us he was murdered by irate relatives of his wife’s for forcing her to sign over to him her inheritance. (That inheritance, by the way, was all the lands east of Wales that now constitute modern England.)

Anyway, that’s how Charles and I are related.

Now you can see why I’m glad that through the criminal actions of London’s Metropolitan Police, I was unable to sleep with Diana, as told in my post: “How I (almost) slept with Diana, Princess of Wales. "

It was perhaps lucky that we could not consummate our mutual passion, as sleeping with her would have been an act of incest, punishable by death, or banishment to Saudi Arabia, the course I would have chosen, anyway.

I haven’t time to write any more today, as a large shipment of pre-used colostomy bags has just been released from Customs and I must inspect them to ensure they were thoroughly rinsed before being re-cycled. Tomorrow, I’ll tell you how they will be used, and also, I’ll relate a fabulous encounter I had with Princess Diana, during a trip back to England shortly before her tragic death.

Ta Ta for now.

I suspect those deleted posts above were put up by someone organising a wine tasting today! Business must have been very slow to give him time to do copy & paste on here, write something on his blog and also make posts in the hate forum.

Hey BW, can my boys call over for a few cases of your 'Plonk' filled with animal crap & then add some 'special ingrediants' to really make the stuff go with a BANG?

Happy to see good people

We would never expect that everyone could agree on one point of view, but as evidenced here it is healthy to see that the majority of people (At least those reading this blog) are sensible and want a fair play standard

Again we apologize if we got out of the plan in laughing at people; it was intended as humor and hope the people that have tried to harm other understand they harm everyone in their narrow minded plan.

I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiment expressed in this appeal. All of the hate blogs are doing as much or more harm to the entire online DR community as they are to the intended targets.Yes, make your posts of disgust with certain individuals & refute them each time they make their posts online. However, the all out attacks are overkill & the focus of blogs and forum posts on personalities rather than DR content have made all DR forums a less pleasant place to visit & participate.

I agree. they certainly have taken the enjoyment I had in Blogging and I have contemplated stopping as my friends are now being subjected to abuse. Even those who were extremely close and have unfortunately left us have been subject to lies and libel. I have seen innocent photographs altered to make the person look deformed. I have read about the tragic death of a person being ridiculed and libelled by what can only be described as Yobbos.

Maybe we should all read

http://pub30.bravenet.com/forum/2560406483/

we are one of the guilty parties, but in what weak defense we can muster it must be said our parody was started in humor, not with the intent to harm or hurt, we guess they can not be mutually exclusive.

This was received as a multi-multi-multi part comment, maybe we should all read and think?

In view of this message and our belief it is correct, we don't see our blog going any further in it's present concept, please check back now and then, we will try and find something that is fun without harm

*****************************************************************************

I have been reading all the boards lately, and these supposed blogs. I expose myself to their ridicule and hate today by speaking up and stating it is my opinion these blogs and their creators have promoted a feeling of hate and uneasiness amongst all people that post on Dominican Republic Bulletin Boards and the subsequent loss of readers, posters and people that seek information about the country

In your efforts to demean certain people you have run roughshod over all people, your friends and foes alike.

When one board pops up attacking one “side,” another appears in support. No one should feel that they are above these insidious attacks and call for an immediate cease and do their part by refusing to participate

I paraphrase form a famous American when faced with this same type of cowardly moral morass, the original “Declaration of Conscience addressed a far greater issue, “McCarthyism” but all cowardly attacks on any person are one in the same; an attempt by a weak, self indulgent cowardly person that seeks to gain favor and promote themselves through the destruction of others

When I speak of the “Escotts” and the “Marcos,” it is not of those two individual I speak, but what appears to be the polarizing issues personified by their respective supporters and detractors.

Friends of the Dominican Republic, I would like to speak briefly and simply about a serious Internet condition. It is a national feeling of fear and frustration that could result in information suicide and the end of everything that we Friends of the Dominican Republic hold dear. It is a condition that comes from the lack of effective controls and beliefs in character assassination.
I speak as briefly as possible because too much harm has already been done with irresponsible words of bitterness and selfish personal opportunism. I speak as simply as possible because the issue is too great to be obscured by eloquence. I speak simply and briefly in the hope that my words will be taken to heart.
I speak as a Friend of the Dominican Republic. I speak as a tourist. I speak as a United States Citizen, I speak as a Dominican citizen, I speak as a person that believes in fairness.
The Dominican Republic has long enjoyed worldwide respect as one of the friendliest countries in the world. But recently that deliberative character has too often been debased to the level of a forum of hate and character assassination sheltered by the shield of Internet immunity.
It is ironical that we Friends of the Dominican Republic can debate on the internet directly or indirectly, by any form of words immune to any person, who is not a “special person”, any conduct or motive unworthy or unbecoming a “Special person”—and without that non-“Special person” having any legal redress against it—yet if we say the same thing on certain boards about our colleagues we can be stopped on the grounds of being out of order.
It is strange that we can verbally attack anyone else without restraint and with full protection and yet we hold ourselves above the same type of criticism here on certain blogs. Surely the Friends of the Dominican Republic are big enough to take self-criticism and self-appraisal. Surely we should be able to take the same kind of character attacks that we “dish out” to outsiders.
I think that it is high time for the Friends of the Dominican Republic to do some soul searching—for us to weigh our consciences—on the manner in which we are performing our duty to the promotion of the Dominican Republic; on the manner in which we are using or abusing our individual powers and privileges.
I think that it is high time that we remembered that we have an interest in the development and promotion of free speech and action, I think that it is high time that we remembered that the purpose of Internet boards, both forums and blogs, speaks not only of the freedom of speech, but also of trial by jury instead of trial by accusation.
Whether it be a criminal prosecution in court or a character prosecution in Internet Forum there is little practical distinction when the life of a person has been ruined.
Those of us who shout the loudest about Friends of the Dominican Republic in making character assassinations are all too frequently those who, by our own words and acts, ignore some of the basic principles of right to expression
The right to criticize;
The right to hold unpopular beliefs;
The right to protest;
The right of independent thought.
The exercise of these rights should not cost one single Friends of the Dominican Republic his reputation or his right to a livelihood nor should he be in danger of losing his reputation or livelihood merely because he happens to know someone who holds unpopular beliefs. Who of us doesn’t? Otherwise none of us could call our souls our own. Otherwise thought control would have set in.
The Friends of the Dominican Republic are sick and tired of being afraid to speak their minds lest they be publicly smeared as “Socially unacceptable” or “Pedophiles” by their opponents. Freedom of speech is not what it used to be in the Dominican Republic forums. It has been so abused by some that it is not exercised by others.
Friends of the Dominican Republic are sick and tired of seeing innocent people smeared and guilty people whitewashed. But there have been enough un-proved cases, such as the “Snotty Blog” case, the “DrFools” case, the “Anti XR” case, the “Ducado” case, to cause Internet wide distrust and strong suspicion that there may be something to the u-unproved, sensational accusations.
As a Friend of the Dominican Republic I say to all of you that the Friends of the Dominican Republic faces a challenge today that is not unlike the challenge that it faced back in the beginning of DR1. The Friends of the Dominican Republic so successfully met that challenge that it emerged from the “Board Wars” as the champion of a united concept—in addition to being a board that unrelentingly promoted the Dominican Republic and free posting of thought.
Today our ability to post is being psychologically divided by the confusion and the suspicions that are bred in the “Hate Blogs” to spread like cancerous tentacles of “know nothing, suspect everything” attitudes.
The posts of interested people have provided us with sufficient issues without the necessity of resorting to character smears. DR1 and other forums are rapidly losing its position as leader of Dominican Information simply because Friends of the Dominican Republic have pitifully failed to provide effective leadership.
There are enough proved cases to make this point without diluting our criticism with unproved charges.
Surely these are sufficient reasons to make it clear to the Friends of the Dominican Republic that it is time for a change. Surely it is clear that Friends of the Dominican Republic will continue to suffer as long as it is lead by the present attitude of hate.
I don’t want to see the views of any “side” win that way. While it might be a fleeting victory for the certain factionist would be a more lasting defeat for Friends of the Dominican Republic. Surely it would ultimately be suicide for the Friends of the Dominican Republic that has protected our freedom of thought from the dictatorship of a one-idea system.
As members of the minority opinion, I do not have the primary authority to formulate the policy of any blogs or Forums But I do have the responsibility of rendering constructive criticism, of clarifying issues, of allaying fears by acting as a responsible interested party..
As a tourist, I wonder how the mothers, Fathers wives, Husbands sisters, brothers, sons and daughters feel about the way in which members of their families have had their character mangled in Internet debate—and I use the word “debate” advisedly.
As a Friends of the Dominican Republic I am not proud of the way in which the these blogs have been made a publicity platform for irresponsible sensationalism. I am not proud of the reckless abandon in which unproved charges have been hurled from both sides of the issues. I am not proud of the obviously staged, undignified countercharges that have been attempted in retaliation from the other side of the issues.
I don’t like the way the Internet has been made a rendezvous for vilification, for selfish personal gain at the sacrifice of individual reputations and personal feelings. I am not proud of the way we smear outsiders from behind a keyboard and hide behind the cloak of Internet immunity and still place ourselves beyond criticism in the darkness of the net
As a Friend of the Dominican Republic I am shocked at the way both sides are playing directly into the ‘Hate mongers” design of “confuse, divide and conquer.” As a Friends of the Dominican Republic, I don’t want a Escott, XR, Ducado “whitewash” or “cover-up” any more than I want a “Marco, Rob, Carina” smear or witch hunt.
It is with these thoughts I have drafted what I call a Declaration of Conscience
Statement of those that truly care about the Dominican Republic and it’s future
1. We have opposing views. But we are Friends of the Dominican Republic first. It is as Friends of the Dominican Republic that we express our concern with the growing confusion that threatens the security and stability of our ability to feely express our thoughts. Both sides have contributed to that confusion.
2. The subject of the hate blogs has initially created the confusion by its apparent lack of trust and morality, by its contradictory opinions and optimistic assurances, , by its petty bitterness against its critics.
3. Certain elements of the “DR1 Defenders have materially added to this confusion in the hopes of riding the Friends of the Dominican Republic to victory through the selfish personal exploitation of fear, bigotry, ignorance, and intolerance. There are enough mistakes of the “Escotts” and “Marcos” for the Hate Blogs to criticize constructively without resorting to personal smears.
4. To this extent, “Escotts” and “Marcos” alike have unwittingly, but undeniably, played directly into the hate bloggers design of “confuse, divide and conquer.”
5. It is high time that we stopped thinking personally as “Escotts" and “Marcos” about whose restaurant is better and started thinking as Friends of the Dominican Republic about tourism promotion based on individual freedom. It is high time that we all stopped being tools and victims of sadistic techniques—techniques that, if continued here unchecked, will surely end what we have come to cherish as the freedom of internet expression
