(By the way, I hope Ed Dolan the Great posts a reply, as in my short visit
to this newsgroup, I have found his posts to be hilarious and his writing
style to be top-notch. In the words of that old Lowenbrau commercial,
"Dolan, you're a genius!")

Ed's on a good run right now, good to see you appreciate him. As long
as no one takes some of throw away bait he uses he can be
entertaining. Any attempt at conversing with him can run in nearly any
direction, and in some directions he seems to get stuck and become
disturbingly repetetive. You can bet he will deliver the final word,
no matter how inane, for he is dedicated to nothing so much as the
reply.

Bottom line is no one appreciates Ed as much as Ed.

This thread has been around for a few days now without any further activity,
so I think it is now safe for me to post to it without raising the ire of
the entire newsgroup.

My throw away lines are there to add some spice. I mean to entertain and
amuse the reader above all else. I also like conversations that wander a bit
as almost all subjects are soon exhausted if adhered to closely. I only get
stuck when I am on my hobby horse, which invariably has to do with the
ignorance and stupidity of liberals and/or the evils of top posting.

I do like to accord everyone the courtesy and honor of a reply. I figure
anyone who has gone to the trouble of reading my not so humble words at
least deserves that much. And I know it is a great honor to receive a
personal response from someone as Great as I am.

I do not mind talking to myself because I like to listen to someone
intelligent and I also like to talk to someone intelligent. This can only be
accomplished if I am talking and listening to myself. That is the advantage
of being Great like I am.
