- Duoy. My comment about speaking on behalf of the world was
- intended to stop those from jumping in and saying "but you're not
- speaking on behalf of me" -- obviously it didn't work. Simply put,
- I was stating that I realized I was *not* speaking on behalf of anybody
- else but myself. Alas, the twist didn't take the intended turn.
-
- And that's all cool and groovy if you like to read long
- alphabetical lists -- tis your preference. Ain't mine. And as long
- as they crop up, I will say, I don't like it. I fail to see how a list
- showing nearly every popular top 40 group over the past ten years can
- give insight into a person, but whatever...

- Yea? So? You're talking about a discussion. Was Davey's
- dump a discussion of his tastes -- or just a gagging list of groups?
- Two different things. And yea, Rob's got cool taste in music.
- (and yea, that's a suckup...) John's cool too (suckup II); I don't
- know Charlie and I don't suck those I don't know.

- >Trygve (Have you considered switching to decaffeinated?)

- Close. I was undergoing a massive nicotine fit. Got any
- 'ludes?
-
- Whatever,
