"Wolfgang" wrote in message ... "David Snedeker" wrote in message .. . "Wolfgang" wrote in message ... Interesting bit of association.  Wolfgang Thank you. I think it was your miny, moe bit that gave me the inspiration. MY bit? I got the distinct vibe that your anti-Semitic fixation with toes matched up with the only picture Ive ever seen of you in which you appear to be wearing a Hitler suit and carrying a gasoline soaked cross. Ouch. You really know how to turn the screws. The "anti-Semitic fixation with toes" thingy is particularly is devastating. Fiendishly clever of you to craft a phrase that even the dimmest wit in ROFF must confess looks like it might mean something. Then again, the combined images of a "Hitler suit" and "a gosoline soaked cross" carry an impressive load of psychopathological resonances that must forever brand the target in the eyes of discerning readers and incisive thinkers as the one and only true embodiment of evil. So, in one deft sentence you've managed to juxtapose the Harlequin and the Beast in such a fashion as to leave the audience alternately gnashing their teeth in rage and weeping tears of hilarity and holding their aching sides, and in a style worthy of The Bard himself. Lovely work. Very painterly. Between your work for the triumph of evil over good, and your molestation fixation, when do you get time to put in an honest days work for the money you are paid? Mondays through Fridays.......7:00-3:30......roughly. Dave Note to Joe: Whatever he says Joe, do not pick up the soap. Good advice, Joe. Davie knows whereof he speaks. Wolfgang who, having been reeled in once again, consoles himself with the (not unreasonable, if experience is any guide) expectation that he will as always be released to rise again another day. Now there you go again, turning into Whinywolf. That is a distinct bummer. I hate this passive aggressive pattern you've sunk to. First I find you all nasty and even stalking Badrichy. And you come out all hostile with your standard Antisemitic baiting of me. Then, with not more than a few smacks and barely a whiff of being labled as a molester, you go weanie. What ****ing bully school did you go to? Im beginning to think Badrichy is right to dismiss you as an ankle biter. Dave

And it doesn't help much that Kennie, Kennie, Stevie and dicklet keep piling on as well. I mean, all I do is try my best to get along with everybody and you guys just make it impossible! I can't say ANYTHING here without the whole bunch of you jumping on me as soon as I show my face. And why? What have I ever done to you but provide an occasional gentle reminder that you should be nice to people? Sometimes......sometimes I'm really tempted to chuck the whole thing and go back to teaching Sunday school. But no, I tell myself, this is something worth doing and if I expect someone else to do it, then why shouldn't they have the same expectations, huh? And then NOBODY would do it......and then where would we be? No......it hurts.....and it may not do much good.....but, dang it, I'm going to stick with it! Wolfgang cuffed, but not cowed.

"William Claspy" wrote in message ... You can see how this gets ugly, fast, from the piscine viewpoint. Our intrepid homeowner suddenly finds that in order to pay for the daily $5.95 double grande carmel lattechino and attendant cinnamon scone, he needs to work a little harder to pay the mortgage. Now he doesn't have time to cut his own grass so he hires ChemicallyModifiedLawns Inc to do it for him. Hoo boy. Now he has to join a health club to burn off the calories he gained drinking and eating that stuff- he used to burn 'em cutting the grass but no more- and... A venti coffee and cinamon chip scone in Indianapolis is $3.90 thank you very much. Sometimes I splurge and get the cream cheese danish or coffee cake for 10 cents more or might go down to a banana nut muffin for 15 cents less. And I still mow my own grass but it hasn't helped the waistline (well until this infection anyway). I apply Scotts Turf Builder quarterly. And water frequently in July and August. It's 3.9 miles from my driveway to I-65 and 3.7 miles from my driveway to starbucks (3.5 miles for those days I'd rather have an asiago cheese bagel with hazelnut blend coffee) Well. It's a dim view, I'll grant you, but the worst thing that ever happened to brook trout (can't speak for Gila trout, as I haven't finished reading the Federal Register entry yet, but gimme time...) was the grande carmel lattechino. No the worse thing that ever happened to brook trout was over harvesting of the forests surrounding the streams where they lived, over fishing, industrial and agricultural pollution of the streams, introduction of non native species (brown and rainbows), streamside degradation, etc. Suburban sprawl, while not pretty I will grant is not helping keep what is left but mine, and my fellow suburbanites coffee fixes are not killing off the brookies. Taking some of these things to the extreme, how many trees have been cut down to make the paper or build the bookcases for all those books you librarians have access to? Books i tell you, books are causing further deforestration raising the summer temps in brookie streams, killing all the brookies. Checking his caffeine levels, Mine's pretty low tonight, stayed in and drank maxwell house made in the home coffee pot. Wayne

Sometimes your words cut to the bone. Yeah, really hurt. OK? And boy, are you good on drone! Really gets to a person. Yeah, that drone **** is ROFF-wide best. And on snide . . . YOU are thee MAN!! Thee Snide King is YOU! (Feeling better?) Great! (Just forget that "woe is me skit." OK?) Dave Jeebus. Next thing you know Badrichy is gunna join the peacecorps.

I always heard these circular bits of logic frequently return to bite one in ones backside... This in particular is going to require further contemplation. Checking his caffeine levels, Mine's pretty low tonight, stayed in and drank maxwell house made in the home coffee pot. Progress! Bill (My favorite bumper sticker, which I've got stuck to my Yakima roof box, is from Gates Lodge, and concerns the Mason Tract drilling: "We won't fish in your oil well if you don't drill in our trout stream!") And do you fail to see the irony in, or expect that anyone should take seriously, a _bumper_ sticker bitching about oil wells? BTW, is that roof box actually on (or for) the roof of anything? It's pretty hard to take a "not in MY backyard" argument seriously when the presenter is dressed in polyester (or other such manmade material) and making their pitch from the hood of an SUV. Petroleum products are strictly a supplied-on-demand item, and currently, demand is ahead of supply. Heck, there is essentially no marketing done or necessary for them (as generics - of course, there is brand marketing) - even the salesiest ad agencies can't figure a way to make a pitch...it's like Chris Rock's bit about crack dealers: "You ain't never heard a crack dealer say, 'Now how am I gonna sell all this crack!?'"...

How's about contemplating that on some trout stream in the middle/late June timeframe? My pulmonologist and cardiologist just cleared me for limited strenuos activities (read limited wading in slow current streams with limited hiking) I'm thinking of trying that Ohio tailwater (Mad?) or driving up towards Grayling in two weekends. I don't know a thing about the Mad except Dayton is closer to Indy than Grayling.
