I'm glad someone else got that. There's always the faint hope that
Wolfie would understand and stop acting like that, but it's a really
dim hope.


It was a masterful performance, although I confess that I didn't read 90%
of it, just like I don't read 90% of Wolfgang's crap. Make that 99%. You
should take that as a compliment.


Lying, whatever value judgment one might attach to it, is no different than
any other human activity in that it involves a set of more or less complex
elements and in that practice CAN result in improved performance. However,
simply doing more of it without critical review and self evaluation will NOT
do the trick.

The simple truth (as any marginally competent reader here knows) is that you
read EVERY word of what I write. The first thing you do each morning is run
to the computer to see what gems I've left for you, and the last thing you
do each night (well, except for those fantasies you so often regale us
with) is run back to the computer.....again and again, to see if maybe
there's just one more. You pore over each word devoutly to see (among other
things) whether or not there is mention of your name......to see if there is
another opportunity to do yourself damage. A peculiar hobby, to be sure,
but then, you really don't have to justify it anyone else......or even
yourself, ainna?

I'm curious about something. Have you been studying Wolfgang on ROFF as a
lurker for awhile, or did you pick him up as you went along? Or, maybe
you're a regular posting under a pseudonym. In any case, well done.


You guys are SO good at this wink wink nudge nudge ****......it's like
watching a couple of drunk Papuans doing their best guess of what a Laurel
and Hardy sketch must have looked like.

Wolfgang
who, betting on the odds that this will fall well within the 1% (or,
probably much less, as will be discovered at the next reappraisal), is not
much worried about yet another devastating reprisal.
