- Psuedo-Intellectual Twaddle. Some people won't read it. Others are afraid
- to find their posts attacked by vicious swarms of it. I choose to embrace
- it. I can find twaddle anywhere on the net, but only here can I find
- P-IT in all glorious varieties. The folks down here on the Circle Eight
- Ranch throw the best electronic cocktail party anywhere on the 'bone.

- Yeah, you say, but what about the dick-waving fatheads? Well, I run across
- plenty of them in the real world, so why should it be any different here in
- cybernull? On Monday I wade through maybe four hundred messages, and if I
- get something out of even a quarter of them, I won't complain. I've been
- jacked in to this group for over a year, and it has never been dull, not even
- when the Rio Rand threatens to burst it's banks and drown us in old hats.
-
- To the faint-hearted and thin-skinned I say Post! And to the Doggery, I say
- God bless you, one and all.
