These are marvelous words that are never used any more.  Perfidy: &#8220;The quality or state of being faithless or disloyal : treachery.&#8221;  That&#8217;s a nice start for the way you treated Lynn Shackelford.  Let&#8217;s add this definition to this discourse: Perfidy: &#8220;In the context of war, perfidy is a form of deception, in which one side promises to act in good faith (e.g., by raising a flag of surrender) with the intention of breaking that promise once the enemy has exposed themselves (e.g., by coming out of cover in order to capture the surrendering forces).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I never ever should have let you know what <a href=\"http:\/\/arts-attic.com\/blog\/?p=61\" title=\"Lynn Shackelford\u2019s 1970 Dodge R\/T Convertible\">6PK2GO<\/a> was really worth.    Yeah he owed you a little money and you told me that you&#8217;d make a place for me to work on selling his radio collection.  I told you all I needed was some protection from the elements and  an internet connection.  You agreed.  Then came the first of your &#8220;We need to have a meeting.  This isn&#8217;t going to work.&#8221;  From that point on you never let me get my feet back under me.  You and your son whipsawed me back and forth until I didn&#8217;t know which way was up.  Then you started in on selling the &#8220;Low Hanging Fruit.&#8221; And you said, &#8220;The only way I see to satisfy Lynn&#8217;s debt is to sell his car.&#8221;  Way to go Paul.  Lynn called the police in Derry, NH the first time you tried to sell 6PK2GO, and I understand you had cash in your hand when the Derry police called you on the telephone and let you know that it&#8217;s illegal to sell something you don&#8217;t really own.  So you made the car disappear.  Lynn went to the police and they refused to take a stolen car report saying it was a civil matter.  Funny.  You had no legal right to take the car but you did, took it out of Lynn&#8217;s control.  That&#8217;s theft in my book.  How much does it cost to buy the Derry, NH police?  Or being a frugal Yankee did you just buy enough of the police force to get your way?  Maybe called in a few favors from your time on the town council or the fire department?  I want to re-write this a bit but I&#8217;ll tell you this Paul Doolittle:  The next lesson is Duress, or When a Bill of Sale ain&#8217;t worth the paper it&#8217;s written on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Paul Doolittle, here&#8217;s a word for you since you style yourself as a mystic running your SunPoint Farm and bill yourself as an honest man.
