Happy early Birthday Lefty

Who needs this kind of BS.

I do. I love BS. I live for BS.

Hey, Tom, have I got the book for you! Harry Frankfurt, professor of
philosohpy at Princeton, has just published a book _On Bull****_.

No, I ain't kidding. See http://www.jelks.nu/misc/articles/bs.html.

PS: I guess this is why I don't come here anymore. Because these other
gutless suckers let you blow off here.

Wow, Bill, what a technological marvel you are....you don't come here
anymore, yet, miraculously, you are here!! I am amazed.

Nobody comes here any more 'cuz it's too crowded...

FWIW I thought Ken's comments sucked as well.

Lefty blows.

Lefty Kreh is an elitist piece of **** who claims that
what America needs to do to save our trout streams from
depredation is make them private water for the rich.


A post from Ken Fortenberry on April 26, 2003:

"Since when has elitism become a pejorative ? Why does it seem that
slapping the elitist label on someone is enough to push their
arguments beyond the pale of polite discussion ?

"You have to blind in one eye and unable to see out of the other
not to realize that some people and some things ARE better than
others. Some people are smarter and more honest than others and
some ideas are better than others. Egalitarianism is seductive,
but it seems perverse to deny common sense.

"It is a better thing we do to fish with dry flies rather than
corn kernels, and if that makes me an elitist, I am proud to be
an elitist."

A nicely written defense of elitism, if I do say so myself.

Now, go back and find where I ever said we need to protect
our fisheries by making them private and charging rich folks
out the wazoo to fish them.

Lefty blows, and if you show up at any Girl Scout meeting in
the US and claim different the little gals will haul Three
Dollar Bill Kiene out into the parking lot, beat the old fool
senseless and shove cookies up his silly arse.

I love the smell of hypocrisy in the morning.

Ah. But you aren't above paying to fish in private water, are you?

Foolish consistency, hobgoblins, yadda, yadda.

No, and I'm not beneath it either. It's one thing to fish DuPuy's
and another to claim that you're protecting the fishery by doing
so. We fished it in February and having a streamside warming hut
to drink a beer in was worth whatever the off-season rate was.
