Good One George.

But... add a tache, a pair of squarish specs, a crewcut -- and hey presto.

The photo got my mind to wandering (back 6-7 yrs). I was conducting p/g's at a company
in a 'suitable' suite provided by the client. It was the sick room.

Anyway, 3-4 subjects later a lady subject walks in. I asked her to please have a seat,
indicating to her to proceed into the adjacent room. In the meantime I was having a short break
and checking my voice-messages. when I walked into the testing room, she was lying prostrate
on the sick bed - naked.

I nearly fainted.

Poor Thing. she hadn't a clue as to what a 'lie detector test' might entail and said that she wasn't 
"concentrating" - on what....??

The mind boggles.

Of course, the poster simply chose (prudently) not to divulge the gender of his/her polygrapher to protect his/her anonymity. But imagine, if you will, the "horror"...

Firstly, I didnt know that the govt was hiring 'obvious' transsexual examiners. This gives me hope.
Then, perhaps you should have stuck to your guns. (Call 0800 TALIBAN )

SHould we really be allowing, people who live with there parents going through a mid life crisis to be able to be the judge all for people who have there crap together and are ready to go into a great job field.

ISBS is your typical polygrapher.  He would rather waste his time hurling insults at others rather than defend his "test".  Oh, thats right, it is impossible to defend a psuedoscience.   My bad!  Carry on ISBS, your posts are quite amusing!

ok if you're wondering if you passed or not... you probably failed... sorry bud

Actually, both posts were posted by me and done to prove a point.   ISBS could be anyone or a multitude of nobodys.  Amazingly, however, he usually gets someone who is posted as "anonymous" or whatever other name to back up his often thoughtless and pointless arguments.  

ISBS is a "Loser" and a Nobody.   I think it is about time we all took the time to ignore him and perhaps he or they or whomever all the ISBS's are will go away.  

I think we have all wasted enough time on this issue.  Hopefully in the future, when those of us who frequent this board take the time to answer a question for someone the administrator could do us all a favor and remove ISBS's useless and insulting posts.

The post by "ISBS is Full of it" posted 17 July 2004 at 10:17 P.M. and the post by "I-SMELL-BS" posted five minutes later, at 10:22 P.M., originated from the same IP address.

It is also doubtful whether the post dated 17 July at 8:03 P.M. purporting to be from Donald J. Krapohl, a researcher at the Department of Defense Polygraph Institute,  is authentic.

Any further posts to this message thread should substantially address the issues raised by the poster who originated it.

I apologize to everyone.   I realized the other day that I was venting all my anger at people that post here.  My life isn't going all to greatly.  I am quite lonely, lost my recent job at the Burger Hut and still live with my parents.   I wish I could say my wife even left me, but I have never been popular enough with the ladies to be able to get one to go out with me, so marriage has always been a long shot.  I guess you could say I am going through a mid-life crisis.   Well I gotta go, my dad needs to use his computer.

Well Beech it appears that you have now found out what names ISBS is also posting as.  Very sad

I remember it a little differently, and I think ISBS's version is closer to the truth.

Alas, mr. isbs, I am gainfully employed in the career of my choice after successfully employing countermeasures-- as is clearly described in the archive of my postings dating back to 2001.

Cheers,

That is the bullshit I smell.  Dave, why don't you just admit it?  After all, it's no big deal.

If you weren't DQ'd for that, then what were you DQ'd for?

Quote:


It is clear from my post that I do not believe 'isbs' was quoting me.

It should also be clear from my invitation to back up the gratuitous assertion that it never happened.

Quote:


Dave, I don't think ISBS was quoting you, I think think he just made what you describe as a "gratuitous assertion", and I also observe that you have not denied that it is true.   

Quote:


I'm asking you to simply back up your gratuitous assertion that what happened to poster 'Dimas':

I was punished for being truthful to my examiner by telling him I knew how it worked.   

'...is exactly what happened to a fellow by the name of Dave who posts under the name of Beechtrees.'

Since I am a registered contributor of the message board, the Search function can be used to pull up everything I've posted here.

With regard to your last question, no, I have never contributed to this message board except as user 'beech_trees' or later on as 'beech trees' (no underscore).

Under what other names have you contributed to this board?

Hey Dave, long time no see.  Are you saying you didn't do that?   And aren't you and dimwit dimas one and the same?

Would you mind pointing out the posts in which I stated I was 'truthful with my examiner by telling him I knew how it [the polygraph] worked'?

Funny, that is exactly what happened to a fellow by the name of Dave who posts under the name of Beechtrees.  I guess both of you guys let your alligator mouth overload your piss ant ass and that is the real reason why you were DQ'd at the polygraph phase.

Sorry, ISBS, nope, I'm not beechtrees or dave.   Then again a DUMBASS like you most likely doesn't have the deductive capacity to know or distinguish between one poster and another.


I tried to be civil, but it looks like you are a very unhappy person and your posts reflect it.   If you are that unhappy with your life I have two words for you.

END YOURSELF

For the record, a dumbass like you would obviously not be aware that he himself is a dumbass.  This is my last post to you about this or probably anything else, as you have once again proven that you cannot begin to even mount an argument based on any facts or relevant info.
You are a very unhappy person, it is you that you have to blame for your lack of success, not others. You are not really "pissing us off", I think people on this board pity you more than anything.  On the bright side I am comforted by the fact that I have indeed pointed out the fact that you are and behave like a Dumbass (I think thanks to you this has now become my favorite expletive,  as you have become my reference point for measuring whether or not a person is one), ignorance of your stupidy is no excuse for it, at least now you are aware of it.

P.S. for future reference when someone orders a number 1, all you have to do is look for the neat little key labeled '1'.

Speaking of registering, aren't you also registered as Beechtrees, Dave?  And for the record, I never refer to myself as dumbass, although you seem to know it fits you.

ISBS,  

I apologize for referring to you as a fast food restaurant worker.  My experience while attempting to order at the local BK today has taught me that to work at that place you must first not have any grasp for the English language or even be familiar with numbers.  A "number 1"is a "number 1 " no matter how it is ordered, I even held up one finger to assist him and he still messed up.  But I digress, as my BK experience is a whole other animal.

While you have on some occasions made a good point or actually made me laugh on a retort or two, I find it unfortunate that you have not taken the time to register as a regular user.  Sometimes what is posted as ISBS is quite pointless, humorless and really below anyone with any self-respect.   It leaves me to wonder if you are infact the same person or the haploid that attempted to take my order today.  


I for one do not regret my polygraph experiences at all.  If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be who I am or where I am at today.   Do I take responsibility for it?  Yes, I volunteered to take the tests by applying for a department that used them.   Do I think the machine is valid?  Sure it is, as an interrogational tool, but I think it's use as the sole basis to disqualify applicants is a bit extreme.   

Not that it would matter to you, but I feel it is worth mentioning.  I was punished for being truthful to my examiner by telling him I knew how it worked.   With the years I have come to understand the poor guy.  I know this really great card trick and when I have performed it usually leave people in awe, however one day the guy I did it to knew how it worked.  Amazingly, I was resentful towards him and VERY bothered by him knowing my trick.  


Either way, I hope you take the time to register and make an attempt to cut us down and have us vent our anger at you via factual and intelligent argument and get away from the ad hominem attacks.

Sincerely,

from one dumbass to another.  (hopefully that will be the last time we refer to ourselves via an expletive)

George, you know I provide a valuable service to you and your fellow losers.  I give you a chance to vent your anger at me and blame me for all your troubles.  I mean after all, you crybabies are never responsibile for your own failures are you?

Dimas,

I disagree with your assessment that ISBS probably works at a fast food restaurant. His string of (often profanity-strewn) ad hominem attacks over the past couple of months leaves little doubt but that he is an irate polygraph "professional" frustrated at seeing the tricks of his trade publicly exposed.

ISBS's main goal in posting here seems to be merely to drag down the level of discourse. Let's not allow that to happen.
