Well everybody else doesn't find it a problem. Conversations drift, that's the art of conversation. It's a hassle to rewrite the subject all the time, and impossible if the conversation branches into three within the same post. As for your analogy, I'd not expect a book to be entirely on one topic. Other things would get mentioned. -- I was at an ATM yesterday when a little old lady asked if I could check her balance, so I pushed her over. |

I'll offer a trade. You quote properly, please. The bottom text is from Derby, and the top author (me) has no quoted text. A casual reader might mistakenly think I called McCaw names. I apparently made a mistake in snipping. Sorry. What trade are you proposing, that you will remove the "" at the beginning of all the subject lines you rename if I never make another mistake? It's a deal! Wait! Don't take that deal. I'm not a lawyer, but I do play one on usenet. Based on the terms of your proposed deal "if I never make another mistake" means that Stormy doesn't have to remove the "" until you "never make another mistake". We won't know if that has happened until the end of time. Well, at least until the end of your time if we are speaking in the terrestrial sense, even longer if we believe in an after-life. Your deal should be structured such that Stormy will remove the "" *now* based on your promise not to make another mistake, along with a clause that states what will happen if you do. |

The Princess said; No!!! So the Prince lived happily ever after and rode Harley Davidson motorcycles and banged skinny long-legged big-titted broads and hunted and fished and raced cars and went to naked bars and dated women half his age and drank whiskey, beer and Captain Morgan and never heard bitching and never paid child support or alimony and banged cheerleaders and kept his house and guns and ate spam and potato chips and beans and blew enormous farts and never got cheated on while he was at work and all his friends and family thought he was freak'in cool as hell and he had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up. The end. |

Stormy, I'm switching sides. Don't take this deal. He's asking you to do what he wants and all he has to do is not admit to further mistakes. He's not saying he won't make mistakes, just that he won't admit to them. I don't like it. P.S.: Your retainer is in the mail. I lost my retainer back when I was a teenager. Had to go to the orthodontist to get a new one. Dad was ****ed. Where did you find it? |
