Instead it's often shallow crap adulterated with hypocrisy and worse. When that's pointed out, all of a sudden they want to talk about something else, or hide behind a killfile. Or in the case of my metaphor - pretend that they've sworn off their weak poisoned coffee in favor of tea. Now, I suppose you're going to say that such metaphors are waaaay too difficult for an "intellectual" to comprehend without the kind of explanation above. Which is true I guess considering the trouble you're having remembering who you claimed to have killfiled, and/or the difference snorf between killfile and plonking. If you lament the demise of the coffeehouse, I really do suggest trying that tea. I do enjoy very good coffee but I also enjoy this tea. I'd be happy to send you enough to sample a cup or two. It's the real stuff, bought in person at Twining's in London which is the narrowest storefront in London. They supply this particular tea to Fortnum & Mason, purveyors to the crown since about forever. If only fancy tea drinking was a viable substitute for sincerity, eh? You may use such blind delivery drop as you might devise to preserve your anonymity. Any CONUS USPS addy will suffice. That reminds me. Notice that my ISP and email address are clearly shown in the headers of my posts since, forever. Ever noticed that some posters have mentioned communicating with me offline? And yet when gummer told that bald-faced lie the other day about me using a "remailer", and later insisted that he "never lies", weasel Don not only remained as silent as ever, he now joins in the smear once again. Family values! LOL I mean it! Have tea, will share as I have with others. Free tea along with another dose of flame from the guy who claims he doesn't like bicker-banter? Let's imagine that I wanted some free tea and took you up on that mealy-mouthed offer - My mailing address is a PO box, and for UPS etc. I need to have the parcels shipped to a friend in town. Stuff like that's a fact of life for some of us who live rural. So if I accepted something from you and gave you my mailing address, you'd advertise it as proof of your BS above about an "anonymous" address. And if I gave you my friend's street address instead, you'd be sending it to gummer for updating of his "great cull" list. Now, remember gummer's phony story about how his grinder is being held hostage guffaw by JRC? Where could I ever have gotten the idea that you'd love to be telling the same kind of whopper? Another of life's great mysteries, eh? Wayne |

It is black assam, but not long-cut. It brews up strong but it's a bit more acidic than the Finest Assam long cut. When I return to wideband land later this week I'll try to find it on Twining's U.S. website. |

wrote: Hum... Less than one minute of searching online shows his ISP (AKA frontiernet) is a local company in Rochester, New York Metro area. http://www.frontierhelp.com/contactus.cfm What a great detective! snorf 1. Gummer has already said that he knows where I live. Of course he also says that he doesn't, and that he hasn't told a lie since he was 5 years old. A claim that even Mother Teresa wouldn't have made, making him the most honest person in the world... according to the undisputed biggest liar on Usenet! Who has among his achievements a hundreds-of-posts back-and-forth wherein which he challenged an opponent to name the place where he'd inflict his usual detailed beating/death or whatever. So the guy named the place and whatdaya' know, gummer asked him to provide transportation and "business loss" compensation before he'd come. Classic gummer, the most shameless BS artist anyone has ever heard of. 2. Frontier is a national telco that specializes in rural service. My email address is clearly citlink.net, which is one of the southwest ISPs purchased by Frontier about ten years IIRC. If you think that the photos I've posted of my place were taken in NYC, then you're beyond help. 3. I have written many times that I live near Kingman, AZ, hundreds of Usenet posters have communicated with me directly by email and phone, and several have visited. 4. Toothless windbag gummer has been threatening me and hundreds of others for years. He even promised to send his lawyers chuckle after me if I didn't leave him alone. Which I haven't, and won't. Still waiting for those lawyers though, I expect their trip to take as long as his efforts to "quit" smoking. But as weasel Foreman has assured us correctly, gummer's threats are worthless, yet he hasn't the spine to call them lies. Same with the cull. While normal people consider it psychotic to brag of trading death lists, foreman claims it's merely normal behavior. Yet gummer continues to insist that he means it. Gun worshippers make strange bedfellows sometimes. They should get together and open a school to teach insincerity to used car salesmen, and provide jobs for nitwits like you. Wayne |

So I guess that for deep-thinker snorf don, the jury is still out on whether or not gummer's "free and clear home", "acreage" and "2' centipede" to name just 3 are lies, or merely what, typos? Slips of the tongue? C'mon, he said he hasn't lied since he was 5. Are you having trouble deciding if *that's* true or not? What a weasel! Wayne |

I've been drinking it for the last few mornings and it's very good. Very dark, with a strong tea flavor. I'll have to give the English Breakfast tea a try next. One thing is for sure though. The Irish Breakfast tea would make excellent ice tea with its good, strong, tea flavor. Hawke |
