- I hate to say it, but I missed a really good chance at a shenanigan.
-
- A long time ago, I posted an article to alt.tasteless saying that
- I had taken a trip to India to study a small group of buddhist
- monks, and discovered that they had developed a skill known as
- Te Crapa, or the ability to manipulate their shit in strange
- ways. For instance, one guy could control the angle at which
- it came out, another could control its consistency, etc. It
- was of course complete bullshit.
-
- However, a couple days ago, I got a letter from a guy who did a
- show for the BBC. Seems the show was called "Strange tales" and
- he wanted to use my Te Crapa story as a true story! He asked that
- I supply some references to prove the validity of my story.
-
- Unfortunately, I sent him mail telling him that the story was
- untrue. If I had really been thinking, I would have sprinted
- down to the library, borrowed a few books on India, and fed him
- so much bs he would drown in it.
-
- I beg forgiveness from this group...
