I've already been doing most of them for the last 15 years. Not because I think that some catastrophe is coming, but because I prefer independent living. However, I have a plan to capitalize on all that energy some of you waste on paranoia - I'll print out a year's worth of Usenet survivalist rants, and stack the pages into a stair-shaped pile such that clouds obscure the pinnacle. A sign at the bottom will read: "secret information about Kenyan birth above, climb if you think that Y2K 2.0 is approaching". At the top a device will flip the marks upside down, and a net will collect all the fallen coins, flashlight batteries, and Sarah Palin novelty pens. I'll keep the coins, and trade the rest for dunce caps to hand out to participants. I know it sounds a little farfetched, but I thought you should get a taste of what normal people see when they read some of the posts in these newsgroups. You present the foregoing as what normal people see? I think it displays unusual imagination for a sane adult. It's nothing compared to feeble, lying, leeching old-farts predicting the end of the world, and claiming that they're suddenly going to thrive and live to be 90. All of which you don't seem to have the slightest problem with, hypocrite. As far as I can tell, "operational security" for a lot of you consists of supporting each other's I'm-finally-going-to-get-to-use-my-gun fantasies in between doctor visits. Wayne My, such gratuitous vitriol! Oh please. Unusual imagination even omitting the "sane adult" condition. It doesn't take any imagination to see that the only difference between the paranoid survivalists and the more numerous afraid-of-the-boogeyman types, is the degree of their irrational fear. Which explains why you have this knee-jerk defensive reaction whenever I mock your deadbeat-crackpot brothers in arms. I think you already know that the combination of age and faux news scaremongering will soon cause you to join in on the "great cull" countdown, and to start writing love letters about your bug-out bag. Listen up, office-chair survivalists: TEOTWAWKI will be a crowded place when all the old farts bug out to the dwindling number of remote mountaintops that have social security offices and solar-powered crash carts. Say, there's a business opportunity for someone. Surely you don't want to be one of those guys who, 3 years from now, looks admiringly at the King of the Glenn Beck Memorial Thunderdome/Cardio Clinic and says "dang, that could have been me, but I was too busy on Usenet to get in on the initial stock offering". Wayne Not as amusing as some of your previous attempts at creative writing with intent to offend, perhaps because it fails to offend. There's no bite, it lacks piquancy. What senior wouldn't chuckle at the fantasy of a remote mountaintop SS office with solar-powered crash carts? Your foregoing bit of fiction is weak, junior high grade. Grade C-. You can do better. Keep trying. Humor is a welcome contribution to this NG. |

I've never said a word about a revolution. Whine is becoming increasingly deranged and demented. Im not sure if its due to alzheimers, or simply his use of an assortment of drugs and booze, to extremes. But either way...its obvious that he is becoming an utter cookoo... And it couldnt have happened to a nicer guy too. VBG Gunner "Aren't cats Libertarian? They just want to be left alone.

Now you want to pretend that you're Switzerland or something? Good luck with that. There's probably a homeless person right this very minute getting orders from General Gumby to add your name to his hit-list. BEVARE! BEVARE! Wayne There's that imagination again! Bully with usenet messages by a pseudonym from a secret location somewhere in AZ? You are occasionally mildly amusing but you certainly are not taken seriously. |

There's probably a homeless person right this very minute getting orders from General Gumby to add your name to his hit-list. BEVARE! BEVARE! Wayne There's that imagination again! Check out this message http://groups.google.com/group/rec.c...5e5141e2b3823d. Who do you think gummer is talking about when he writes "old vets"? It's people like you, gullible and weak enough to endure punking and have their puppet strings pulled by a deadbeat phony. It's been five years since he told us about his troops in that previous fantasy. Surely I'm at the top of his must-get list, and yet I haven't seen a single warrior. snorf Nitwits with low-low standards, and willing to devote a few feeble keystrokes to his critics, are the most fearsome power he'll ever wield. Bully with usenet messages by a pseudonym from a secret location somewhere in AZ? LOL What about his "crypto anarchists"? Isn't five years enough to find the place where other posters have already visited? Heck, another critic posted his address, and all gummy did was crank up his excuse-making machine. Of course, lethal-weapon that he is, he may have launched a fusillade of magazine subscriptions at the guy. And I ask you again, weasel, how can *anyone* "bully" the mighty gumby? He regularly reports that nothing his critics write bothers him in the slightest. Whatsa' matter, don't you believe him? You are occasionally mildly amusing but you certainly are not taken seriously. You're contradicting yourself. How can I bully if nobody takes me seriously? Exactly! Increasingly frantic slinging of cyberfeces from your remote monkey-cage is merely evidence that your obsession has eroded your rationality. That's OK with me as long as your rants have some entertainment value. Please try to keep it at least somewhat amusing. |

In a time and place beyond your ken there were 12-year-old girls, Viet Cong, that killed American soldiers with grenades. grenades, sachel charges and M2 carbines. First person I killed in RVN was a young kid charging the wire with a sachel charge. I puked for an hour after watching him blow to pieces after he went down on top of his already smoking charge. After that..no problem...well..fewer problems and then only at 3-4am in the morning Gunner "Aren't cats Libertarian? They just want to be left alone.
