There's a rating scale for movies that tells parents how raw the movie
is. Perhaps we need a rating scale for posts that tells the reader
how thoroughly obfuscated the post is. Words of more than 4 syllables
might knock a post out of the "G" rating, thoughts more complex than
"rock" might move it to "PG", etc. Maybe we also need a weasel index.

Whatchall think? I think it sounds like a lot of trouble. A nap is
far more appealing.

If you need help and advice for reading

I'm being disgustingly paternalistic as a result of boredom... doing
something useless while I wait for the cogs to turn... they do seem to
be turning, but very, very slowly.

Did you ask what to read next? I'm sure the pompous blowhards will
line up to give you their choice of the next Thackeray masterpiece
to aid you in sleeping.

how is it you're here on a
writers' newsgroup?

It's what I do when I'm feeling too pansy-assed (slang: "wimpy",
"wussy", etc) to participate in a manly-man newsgroup.

Good description. Vivid. Gives me a good image of the real you.

Speaking of "pansy", how long have you been out of the 'states, Ray
[just curious]?

I choose the words I use carefully, Boots. Just remember that. It's
just too much fun for me to watch my dark little monkey dance as he
does. Man, I'm good at this. Cross thread trolling by proxy now!
