Perhaps the most presumptive, self-inflated, preposterous, and just plain
wrong statement I've yet seen here. In fact, you ain't got a ****in'
clue....which, by the way, makes the whole thing all the more entertaining
because so many have been provided free of charge.

Wolfgang
and you can stick that in your recipe file.



Always an interesting statement -- "I know." We presume that "I know"
is based on a logically derived set of facts but all it ever amounts
to is a construct with which we have comfort in its certainty.

So he can "know" where your mind roams without having a ****ing clue
where it's actually been. And there is always the possibiility that
he is right -- that's the bitch of it . . . .

So one man's certainty is another man's lack of a ****ing clue . . . )

Where would ROFF be without it . . .

Dontcha just love this place . . . .

BTW, it's probably too late for this year but shouldn't we do a
Porkies trip again, before John gets too old and infirm to lug the
grub?

Agreed, endlessly fascinating.

What you mean "we", white man? Actually, there was little doubt about what
the boy meant.......he ain't that deep.

Well, that's a bit of a leap of faith. Ste's mind....if we are to give
credence to the ample evidence....dwells in a soiled place that I have, by
virtue of occupational vagaries, had occasion to visit but aside from that
it's pretty obvious that he hasn't recognized any of the plentiful clues
he's tripped over. So, no, he can't know.

And there is always the possibiility that
he is right -- that's the bitch of it . . . .

Not a chance in hell.

More than mere words (the right ones....or otherwise) can express.

Certainly too late for the ephemeral steelhead, but I'm not all that sure
I'd want to do that particular thing again anyway. I'm thinking a fall
trip.....catch the colors and some stream residents. Mid to late September
is a beautiful time along the south shore......fat brookies in breeding
plumage.....clubbing salmon.....northern lights.....no bugs. Whattaya
think?

Wolfgang
who can probably arrange accommodations for eight or ten.

I'm likely to be screwed out of any fall fishing trips as at work,
we're converting to AD, Server 2003. Exchange 2003. By September
we'll be in the thick of it.

Rats. Wading Lake Superior without the bulwark that is Petah is possible, I
suppose, but not an experience to be savored......except, perhaps, in
retrospect as a daring, if somewhat foolhardy, exercise in bravado.

Any chance you could get away.....oh, say, NOW?

Wolfgang
whose gear is still in the back of the van.

These days I'm more bulk than bulwark.

Get away now? Don't I wish . . . I'm even working tomorrow.

I spent a good part of my Friday evening wrestling with a plumber's snake to
no avail. This morning was taken up following a couple of plumbers around
the house and counting out an obscene number of shiny new nickels for them
to take away. The afternoon will be eaten up with carpet cleaning,
painting, and sundry other odious chores.

Tomorrow doesn't look much better.

Wolfgang

Wolfgang:
So, no, he can't know.

My, my, my, you simply must tell me where you shop. I, too, would love to
have a Cloak of
Omniscience. And however did you find a haberdasher that carries hats in
such a large size?

Absolutely delicious. See if you can get Tbone to explain to you what has
happened in this exchange.

Wolfgang
ya'll know that i can't actually MAKE them do these things, right?

Quite simply, from my vantage point, while you may have hoped to be
Chancellor, you've once more displayed your qualifications for the currently
vacant role of Dauphin.
