RJ accused me of using derogatory remarks to Bryan. She (Sorry, I don't know RJ's gender) has listed bits here and there showing me as a bad person :-) Context is very important. I have put the context below. Judge yourself.

"The day I will have that kind of arrogance feeling, I will put the big profile in the local newspaper saying that my talents are recognized statewide. How about that deal?"
2. Mathilde wrote:“I believe that Mayor Christiansen has done a fine job in revitalizing Edgewater. How long have you lived in town? Do you remember when we couldn't even buy groceries without leaving Edgewater?”
Nelson replied:
“You are saying that having Pathmark in Edgewater is the greatest achievement of the incumbent Mayor. You are suggesting that whithout Mayor Christiansen, we would not have Pathmark or Grand Union in our entire life in Edgewater. I see. It means in all boroughs- Pathmark, Grand Union and Shop Rite are established by the leadership of the Mayor:-)otherwise they would not have grocery stores. “

"When I was young, I couldn't go to the movies very often because there was no theater in town." Nelson replied:
“How about if I say like this just for the sake of logic - When I was young, my parents didn't have a computer so I have to go to the shcool lab to do my computer stuff. Time has changed. Things have become accessible. Who should take credit for this? Time, my parents or myself.
You would also add that the incumbent Mayor has build a community centre. How long it took to build that Community centre? Do you know how long it took to build the Great Wall of China :-)?
4. Tracy wrote:A college or post-graduate degree does not qualify someone to hold public office, and correspondingly the lack of formal education does not disqualify someone. And don't be so impressed by the MBA degree. They're a dime a dozen these days (I myself have a post-graduate degree), and it's on a par with what a bachelor's degree used to be 20 years ago.
Nelson replied:
"I agree with that education does not qualify or disqualify someone but education still plays a great role in coming up with a far-reaching vision beyond having a Pathmark in Edgewater."
5. Mathilde wrote:This person believed a rumor that 100 stores were going in along with the new movie theater. If you think 10 seconds about it, you would realize that there is not enough room for that. Also, if you are running for office, wouldn't you make a phone call to Borough Hall to find out the truth?
This was not me but RJ has listed in her list as I have said so I have put the context.
Edward C replied:
There is a rumor that the incumbent Mayor scarred away from logging into the computer. Will you believe it? I will not. This is the same rumor like what you are cooking up.
