Did I spell that right?  Couple others too but you, you made your way
to the top of the usenet kook of the month heap.  Sometimes I do feel
lost and alone in a Wereo filled wilderness of meaningless usenet
schizophrenia as you try to make sense of the thoughts you are having,
right in front of all of us.  I have gone from annoyed to pitying to
chuckling to staring in abject fascination, like the proverbial car
wreck.  These years I just wonder when your poor body will just wear
out.  Years of whatever you've been doing, the stresses put on it by
whatever thoughts your brain is forcing you to try to make sense of,
the stresses of wherever you might be living, and how yer supporting
yourself.  I remember when you went to Ontario Canada because you
thought they had something to do with The KaliPhornya Jamapalooza you
taped, and I thought you might get some of the...assistance you could
use to help with the thoughts you are trying to make sense of, but I
guess they just put you in the joint for a couple days and gave you a
bus ticket home.  I thought maybe the judge would help out too, but
she didn't.

I guess I'm sayin her Scotto, we'll be just fine.  We were before you
showed up, we were when you were a much quieter voice than you have
been in recent years, we were each time you...went away and didn't
post for long times, we will be fine again.  Go, brother.  Do whatever
yer doin, if it takes you away from usenet then go with it, if it
makes sense of the thoughts, do it.  Take care of yourself though, you
got SOMEthin in there to offer, just gotta find it.

Your pal,

I've been around for ten years. I started on AOL, as the entire ARRMO
gang did. I subsequently got gated off for quoting a short passage
from the anonimously authored, late 19th century book "Romance of
Lust." Lol. AOL cut me off in mid sentence for doing such a thing lol.
That was a quite disheartening experience.

So I had to quickly find another ISP. I opted oh, btw my screnname on
AOL was Allhail31 but I don't know if any of that stuff is archived.
For some strange reason I think most of my allhail31 musings have
disapparead.

So I moved onto another ISP cawled Earthlink. That might've been a
more hideous experience than AOL! Some manager named "Amanda" kept
popping into my hideous EL email inbox repeatedly telling me that
"wereo" was not an acceptable phrase if I wanted to continue talking
about Deep Purple.

So that was the end of them. I think this was the days when I
destroyed the very fabric of alt.music.deep-purple. And they are still
crippled up to this very day. Alt.music.deep-purple has never been the
same since the Lifshine Encounter.

Then there was that guy, I forget his name at the moment from AMDP who
sent me like 181 emails in two days while I was figuring out how to
gate him.

My mother was a lunatic.

My father was the best father a son could hope for. One day I
schlepped him to a Chevrolet dealership on the same side of Bruckner
Blvd we lived on, to see a Corvette, hoping he would buy it for me.

For a man who served hundreds of thousands of hot dogs in Madison
Square Garden and the Forest Hills Tennis Stadium don't you think it's
incredible he never ate one? That man was strictly kosher until the
day he died. And that day was not a very happy one for me I can tell
you that.
