Like any good horror flick ... just when we all thought that it was over, there's a final scene!  :lol:

Mike Kennedy has been posting on AtariAge this evening in an attempt to "protect his reputation" (and to drive the bus over another few of his previous colleagues).

It's a fantastical tale, well worth reading!  :roll:

This is a golden moment. :)

Holy crap...

Let's say everything he says it's true. You know...just for argument's sake. Bottom line: he's an idiot. A sucker and an idiot. Completely incompetent and foolish.

Seriously. What a buffoon.

Exactly.  His story doesn't make much sense, even if you allow that he's mildly retarded and/or gullible in the extreme.

"I have made the decision that my reputation is worth protecting..."

He was better off laying low. Whatever shred of reputation he may have had beforehand, is surely now dust in the wind.

I wonder if Sean "Lee" Robinson even exists, or if Mike dumped his body in a ditch 8 years ago after a bad deal and decided to use his criminal reputation as a scapegoat. The links he posted complaining about him aren't exactly exhaustive. Two look to be the same guy with a flaming hot 15 year old grudge.

It's an odd choice...telling a story like that to clear your image when the only way that would work is if we truely bought into his explaination of how amazingly stupid he is. Which is more believable? I don't know, probably the truth is somewhere in the middle.

I can't believe I just read all of that...Jesus...

Interesting, though.  A couple people he name dropped weighed in.  Normally I hate drama, but this is like a soap opera.

I fell asleep last night trying to get through that thread. My entire commute to work this morning....well, I spent the entire time just finishing that thread.

As you said, it was worth because a few individuals directly involved in the drama weighed in with their experiences/version of reality.

BOTTOM LINE: Mike is a performance artist. This entire drama unfolded in several acts.

Theatre of the Absurd.

I am pleased that this newest Act was only presented after a *dramatic pause* of ~30 days.

Bravo.

(And to think that most folks think Mike Kennedy is a latter-day P.T. Barnum! He is ***so*** much more!)

The juiciest thing to me is the apparent fact that this Sean "Lee" scam artist was involved far earlier in the debacle than was admitted by Kennedy.  Really leads me to believe that the whole thing really was a big con all along.
