DISCLAIMER:
The following flame is from someone who used my account, but is
not me. Let it be known to all and sundry that I love David Letterman
with all my soul and would do anything for the man. What follows are
the ravings of a lunatic.
*********************
<<<<FLAME ON!!>>>>>
Right then! I have sat here, reading endless lines of text, dedicated to the praise of that talentless toad, David Letterman, in silent anguish, but NO MORE!It is past the point where I can stay quiet.
The "last straw" was a recent article to the net. from uiuccsb!leimkuhl
(unsigned), dubbing D.L. as "the King of Sarcasm".
<<<<<<<*****NOVA*****>>>>>>>
That title belongs to (and has ALWAYS belonged to) a REAL comedian by the
name of Don Rickles!!!
A sarcasm contest between the two of them (not to mention a TALENT contest)
would leave Letterman limp and bleeding in, say, oh 0.5 seconds.
<<<FLAME OFF>>>
Am I the only one out here who does not find D.L. funny? Come on, there
must be SOME others out there!(back me up folks)
You may now all be sausages, and do your wurst. I've already rented the SCUBA
gear, and have had my terminal watersealed.

P.S. Possibly needless to say, but I vote a resounding NO for net.Letterman
(or whatever)
