Cancer or not, the guy is still a Wackmobile!

` This post has been sitting in limbo for a while. This is the second attempt at completing it, as the first time being stopped by having to use Internet Explorer, which doesn't allow 'cut' or 'copy' nor does it have an 'undo' button, which I really needed to use when a chunk of this article disappeared. *Sigh* sometimes you can't win.

` I am speaking of Jon-Erik Beckjord You may remember him from a certain previous post of mine (which he even commented on), about how he insists that what appears to be a moss-spotted tree stump is really a bigfoot! (And such a deformed, grotesque, short-legged, pinheaded bigfoot that it magically doesn't look at all like 'real' bigfoots he compares it to!)
` Judging by a few things he's said, I figured that he's probably so 'out there' that other bigfooters would reject him! Turns out that I'm right - I found a debate forum in which he childishly flames the other forum members with a self-righteous arrogance and extremism that almost surprised me!
` Then, in Skeptic forum, he wound up creating a post in which he began complaining about the irritated nature of a certain Charley Bigtime (from one of the other forums), and from there it got more and more interesting, causing me to conclude that this guy probably has some kind of mild psychosis. I have since edited the thread for enhanced comprehension. Read on:

Charlie Bigtime was asked what "Not Safe For Work" meant, as he used it, a basic simple question and hemmed and hawed for five emails back and forth, so I told him to forget it, and I put him on filters. I also told him he is the cretin of all cretins.

I banned the banner. I also no longer bother to post on his forum, which is full of flamers, even worse than I am!

Now he is upset and carries this war to this forum. He is still the ultimate cretin.

What is this guy, 19?

Beckjord

PS - If I insult someone, or some robot, it is because, like the movie law professor said, "They did it the old fashioned way, they earned it."
(We have no proof, after all, that 99% of the entities on this forum
are actual humans.They could be robot programs, programed to be fools.)

` Instead of some kind of agreement or protection, as Beckjord had probably (immaturely) hoped to get, he was met with much amusement, cackling and rubbing of hands together.

Read this for a clue:

If the story at this link is true, I personally hope for the best for Mr. Beckjord.

http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/beckjord-cancer/

Bone metastasis from prostate cancer is quite common. Treatment varies but often includes bisphosphonate drugs to hopefully reduce bone loss, and radiation therapy for bone pain.

Compared to cancer, how important is an Internet message board? Not very.

` The article was written by none other than bigfooter Loren Coleman - he emailed me once without having any idea why! (I mentioned it here, because of its weirdness!) You can see for yourself just how right I was to begin with about 'Becky' Beckjord!

...Bigfoot badboy Jon-Erik Beckjord has released a statement that he has cancer.

In conjunction with this release of information, Beckjord says he is trying to sell, once again, his copy of the Patterson-Gimlin footage of a Bigfoot at Bluff Creek, California, taken on October 20, 1967. The footage is available on most good documentaries about Bigfoot, but, as Beckjord has noted in his past attempts to sell it on eBay for one million dollars ($1,000,000), he feels his copy is unique. How he obtained that copy is not known and not stated. Beckjord, states for the first time, as far as is known, that he will share part of what he obtains from such a sale with Bob Gimlin and Pat Patterson.

As many within the Bigfoot community know, Beckjord has enjoyed obtaining publicity in a variety of sometimes very bizarre ways, often tied to media notice of other personalities.

Jon-Erik Beckjord has been thrown out or banned from Bigfoot conferences. He has been banned from Wikipedia and various email lists and forums for his disruptive postings. Most recently, he obtained media attention for claiming to have taken psychic photographs of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson. If you are unaware of him, here is a sampling of links of past interactions and histories of Jon-Erik Beckjord: Bigfoot Forums on Beckjord; Beckjord banned from Bigfoot Forums; Beckjord becomes Homeland Security expert after 9/11; Beckjord claims he was Mothman via an out-of-body-experience during release of Gere movie; threats of lawsuits; James Moseley on Beckjord’s feuds; Beckjord’s threat of lawsuit against Moseley; Wikipedia on Beckjord; Beckjord on Beckjord; and Beckjord on Tom Biscardi.

Needless to say, I wish cancer on no one, and here’s my best to the guy who has “entertained” us with his antics for years. My wish is for Beckjord to have some painless moments while obtaining a speedy recovery....

Thanks for the link. I read the comments too. This one's "interesting":

Quote:

Quicksword responds: February 25th, 2007 at 8:20 pm I read that Beckjord has cancer. Maybe so, maybe not. I told him 2 years ago that he had a problem in his stomach area and should receive medical attention quickly. Beckjord and I have had an ongoing feud for a number of years. Oh, we started out alright, but then he went wacko one day and started posting all sorts of ugly stuff about me and my family on the internet. He even went so far as to pay for personal information about me. His intent was to smear me and in the process he made false comments about my wife and kids on the internet. Well, we all know about the threats that he launches against those that do not have favor with him or debate his theories. It is not a matter of Beckjord debating opposing views, with him it is a matter of sliming people. So, if he wanted a fight instead of a debate then I was going to use tools to try and destroy him like he had tried to do to my family over the internet. I will not get into the ugly details but suffice it to say that he posted the most vile things about my wife and children on the internet. I had to go psychic on him. I utilized a skill that my family has had for many years,,,,maybe a skill that has been resident in my lineage for hundreds of years. I channeled his Mother. She came on very strong outling some ugly things that occured when he was young. I was not so low that I outlined those on the internet as I was not going to go as low as he did about my family. I did though tell him about the cancer that was growing in his loins. It was made very clear to me. His Mother did not tell me that it was prostrate cancer, but only revealed that it was in his stomach region and that it was going to kill him in due time. She went on to reveal that he would need to see a Doctor immediately. That was 2 years ago. He scoffed at me. Now he states that he has prostrate cancer. Maybe and maybe not. I have been in the BF shadows for 2 years now. My bigfoot encounter was used by him to validate that it was a “shape shifting” entity. Either he really does have cancer,,,OR he is trying to draw me out. He is confused as his nemisis has been absent for 2 years.

Oh my.

So I followed one of the links about Beckjord in that article:
http://www.martiansgohome.com/smear/v41/ss941101.htm#lawsuit

Seems Beckjord is (occasionally) fixated on college degrees. Where have we heard that before?

Back to the cancer topic, I notice that Beckjord has started a thread touting the book, The Secret.

http://www.skepticforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=6912

In that book, one of the key concepts -- actually a very old notion repackaged -- is that everything in your life, you have attracted. I am guessing that includes prostate cancer. Makes me wonder why Beckjord is endorsing such a book.

Yeah, it is. You have to wonder about the home life of some people. Evidentially another woo, Kent Hovind, prior to his conviction was nothing more than a cheap grifter who pocketed tons of cash under the guise of "God".

It is like the main-men of wooism are coldeyed and calculating theives and then there is a strata of "can't do" followers who believe the crap that they spew. Benny Hinn comes to mind.

This is a bit of a contradiction here.

If someone was smarter than anyone else here, then they would be smarter than I am. And if they were smarter than I am, and I am smart enough to realize that... sex is a boring waste of three minutes... then they would be smart enough to realize that sex is meaningless and that modern society could live without it.

Maybe "sex" is implied in some other sense than a physical one. Maybe "mental sex"?

` And then... I don't remember what happened... it's all a blur! I remember that Beckjord attacked De_Bunk's avatar, but apparently hasn't attacked anyone personally again. Perhaps he left after all. (Or got kicked out?) Insanity, though, reigns supreme apparently here.
` Anyway I gotta go now to get food. Also there's a TallGuy installing a DVD player in Lou's computer, so that maybe Lou will be able to install software on it!
