***** A little missive from jmm living in the industrial waste pond at AT&T Labs in Whippany, NJ, showed up on the net today: > As a result of the broad and excessive flame directed at me by someone > known as the Celtic Soul Sister, I was able to form a very clear mental > image of this young lady. To wit, she: > > 1. stands 4' 11" tall > 2. weighs 275 > 3. shaves twice a day > 4. sweats a lot > 5. gargles with Witch Hazel > 6. uses industrial strength Mitchum deodorant > 7. is actually descended from a long line of Tibetan yaks > (apologies to Tibet) > 8. thinks culture is something that grows in a jelly dish > 9. was unable to engage in the discussion of the articles I wrote > 10. therfore, became extremely frustrated and issued the above- > mentioned flame in my direction. > > Please note that this flame has been confined to this net and not > blasted into places like net.rec.nude and net.invest as her flame was. > > Cheers, > bonnie!jmm Well, gee, I just cannot believe this -- in response to a perfectly reasonable flame of mine (directed, I should point out, to Sunny Kirsten of Sun Microsystems and not to jmm at all -- talk about paranoia) this bimbo has ejaculated a considerable amount of personal abuse in my direction. See -- I can do the same thing: As a result of the broad and excessive flame directed at me by someone known as the Celtic Pond Scum, I was able to form a very clear mental image of this thing. To wit, it: 1. stands 6" tall 2. weighs 4 1/3 oz 3. has always wished it had something to shave 4. sweats a lot at Doris Day movies 5. gargles with industrial strength Mitchum deodorant 6. uses Irish Spring suppositories 7. is actually descended from a short line of recombinant DNA experiments, and so 8. is something that grows in a petri dish 9. was unable to comprehend the delicate and subtle humor in the article I wrote 10. therefore (and you will notice that I, Trisha, know how to spell "therefore") became irrationally enraged (jmm is already extremely frustrated) and issued the above-mentioned flame in my direction Now I think this type of reply is childish but it is a lot of fun and much more interesting to read than all those endless Stonehenge articles. I propose a new newsgroup called net.infantile-aggression for jmm's use. Don't mess with me, Trisha Celtic Love Goddess
