it is amazing how may words and expressions are used to for lies, tricks and deciet.. a short list of idioms

Put one over one
hoodwink
pull the wool over their eyes
sold them a plug nickle
take for a ride

or course, in the end, its true, you can fool some the people most of the time, but never all of the people all of the time...

what others can you add.

A real man is able to accept the consequences of his actions.
To use extortion to evade just penalty is contemptible.

actually dr bill, i was thinking of the sudden influx of new people here.. are they real? or are they trying to pull the wool over our eyes?

yes, we've had the equalizer, and other sock puppets pop in, and they have lashed out at Keiva.. but keiva does have some email adresses.. and some people just don't want to have there mail boxes filled with email from him.. so they do hide a little bit..

but there are so many new names.. and some how, they all sound the same... the same type of questions, the same style.. they same themes...

it just got me thinking..
