Now, I'm not getting myself into anybody's personal ****ing match; but in
light of the ones presently in play, I feel the need to make the following
observation. You don't know Mr. Fortenberry, nor are you sufficiently
familiar with his sum total of contributions here to authoritatively

decree
what is or is not his "signature". Undoubtedly, you have seen one of his
more, shall we say, unsympathetic, sides; but you have not the experience
with him or TBone or any historic interaction between them to have any

sense
of humor or attitute inherent in Ken's brief reply. It is often

recommended
that newcomers to any newsgroup simply read for a while to get the flavor

of
the group before posting. This is one of those instances where that would
have been advisable. IMHO, of course.


All true, of course. Still, an effort to plant a boot in Ken's ass is never
entirely out of line, is it? :)

Then too, Ms. S., I think, has ample justification for making the effort
beyond it's undeniably sufficient amusement value.

I don't know, Joe. You don't need to be an "oldtimer" to see that Ken
frequently acts like an arrogant, "whiny", preachy, schoolmarm with bad
manners who takes it upon himself to lambast newcomers for minor
"netiquette" transgressions. KF acted like an asshole toward her in
reference to some minor error in "netiquette" she made and IMO, any kind
of **** that she may give him in return is well deserved.

What's even more surprising to me than his amazingly hypocritical
behavior is that he seems to hold his obnoxious behavior up as some kind
of badge of honor.

(And don't give me that old - but he's different in person- because it
just ain't true)

Are YOU still here ??!!??

WHY ??

You don't post to other Usenet newsgroups, you don't fly fish,
you don't know anyone here. Why are you here ?

You'd be much better off going somewhere more appropriate
like alt.pathetic.middle-aged.white-trash where you could practice
your Usenet etiquette amongst like-minded hillbillies. Once you've
got THAT down pat you might want to actually go FLY FISH, (this IS
a FLY FISHING group, remember ?), and then maybe you can come back
here and take cheap shots at the fly fishermen.

Until then, eat **** and die, you stupid bitch.

Remind me, if I ever become single again, not to come to you for advice on
how to get a date ;)

Hello TBone,

I can't tell people how many times I have laughed so loud with one of your
posts that I woke up my wife in the next room.

Being a non-intellectual type, I have to really read your stuff to figure it
out some times.

Nice to see you are still kicking.
