You'll fit right in in AFB, then. The Ladies of the AFB Knitting
Circle positively get the vapors when they encounter a crossposted
message, apparently having no idea what to do about it other than bat
their eyelashes and flutter their hands here and there while muttering
soothing nonsense to one another.

Typically, they will express their frightened confusion in crossposted
messages. Yes, you read that right: crossposted messages. We're not
certain if this behavior stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of
how the Usernet (tm) works, a profound lack of self-control, or a
defective Irony gene.

On the other hand, they could just be st00pid.

There is also no scale on the thing so you can't tell the size of it. It could
have been two or three inches long or a foot long.

It looks sort of like that thing Kahn stuck in Chekovs' ear in the
second Star Trek film, except that thing was not hairy. Or real.

Hah! Reminds me of the "Thank You Masked Man" Lenny Bruce cartoon in which
the Masked Man saves the townsfolk and in lieu of thanks he asks them for
Tonto and a horse in order to perform "an unnatural act".

I gotta go dig out that video.

Pulled pork this weekend on the WSM. "Seahawks and Sandwiches" will be
Sunday's theme. At least one of the two is sure to be succcessful.

"Satire is tragedy plus time. You give it enough time, the public, the
reviewers will allow you to satirize it. Which is rather ridiculous, when
you think about it."

Lenny also said that he shot aspirin because he couldn't stand the taste of
it!

I gotta go dig out that video.

I useta listen to the Lone Ranger on WOR every weekday night at 7:30. Never
heard that one.

and where's it gotten you, huh? is there a Merc in your garage, with
an Aston beside it? does your garage have its own swimming pool? do
your crossposters make you yummy breakfasts to wake up to? do they
tuck you in at night and tell you soothing stories of political sex
scandals? do they help you CAUSE political sex scandals?

if not, you may need to join us, and look for some better ones.
they're out there. I promise.

I have a rack of spares and a butt in my gas bullet, with cherry wood.
I figure the ribs will be a good accompaniment to the radio broadcast
of the UW-Arizona game, and I'll have pulled pork for the
professionals tomorrow.
