Difficult concept, I >know... Listen up, you miserable weasel. In the US, there have been several different editions of the KT discs issued. Some have lyrics, some don't. I was merely curious to see if TSW had already become a cheapo lyric-less disc. So lighten up. >Sorry.

I thought, since everyone here is a >fan, such a question, while probably repetetive, would not be totally >inappropriate. Nothing personal, but EVERYBODY who wanders in here asks the same question. I'm allowed to be a little dismayed when it pops up again, anticipating the flood of argument it will engender. It's not your fault, and I indeed took time to point that out, but you mistakenly interpreted it as: ><Wads of strange stuff (constituting roughly 10 times more verbal diarrhea >than my original posting) deleted.> Pure nonsense, dear lad. Adjust your language parser. >I already know that. Somebody less uptight answered. Somebody less uptight than ME? A biological impossibility, pal o' mine. ---From: ed@DAS.LLNL.GOV (Edward J.

Neil, you're a hip dude. I'd welcome any suggestions of an official title. Certainly, I don't want to step on our favorite numinous curmudgeon's toes. Although actually the days of IED's _serious_ curmudgeoness appear to have passed. I strongly urge everyone who can to read the early love-hounds archives, back in the days of wicinski and hoffman. Now there was some INTENSE fun for those with the stomach. From: THOMASDL@UIUCVMD.BITNET >I too liked Jon's very funny "explanation" about GAFFA. Thank you.

Difficult concept, I >>know... > > Listen up, you miserable weasel. ... Before anyone gets particularly put out it should be noted that "miserable weasel" is for Jon a term of endearment. This has caused considerable confusion for Jon in getting settled in his new job. Once you get to know him being called a "spotty little stoat-faced git" or "vacuous ferret-brained pervert" is just second nature. For Jon, the weasel reference is key indicator of a heart-felt compliment. "Don't drive too slowly." Richard Caldwell AT&T Network Systems att!cbnews!nrc nrc@cbnews.att.com
