Re:. But what's a "shmuck"? :)

Yup. See it was kind of funny to me. Horse's as in "HORSES" but horses'
penis (penises?) as in JBolt critiquing me for "speaking for Patti" while
doing the exact same thing (backed only by a website - which is trendy but
unconvincing). Therein implied that he gave Patti the patriarchal weaponry
he felt she was lacking. Pretty funny "invective" if you ask me - but of
course you didn't.
Mary or Fiona (they seem so interchangeable) recommended therapy or
spiritual guidance. Herein I rest my case (for now) on hippie vs. punk. If
you don't get this, you prove it even further.
As to their cries for excommunication, it neither scares or concerns me. I
almost unsubscribed already (out of boredom with all that silly prove it
prove it shit) but JBolt just got me laughing so hard with how meticulously
he tried to dissect my post which did feature "proof". Checking the times,
he spent hours on it! Had to do it in two parts no less. I left one quote
out of what maybe 7 (I didn't count) unreferenced and sure enough in came
the "where's your proof Ed?" Ya gotta admire that kind of dedication. But
back to Mary and/or Fiona.........
I love those double standards.
If this was the 60s, you'd both be good hippies.
Maybe you should pool your resources (if you have any that is) and buy Big
Pink. Its up for sale again. You could all get together and chant away
those evil karmas of shmucks like me.
Maybe turn it into some sort of Lesbian Feminist Patti Worship shrine. You
wouldn't have to rename it or anything. Does need a new coat of paint
though.
Power to the people, man!
