[MiSTing] "Has Bill Clinton Died" [CASTLE] [CONS]
McDLT
The following is a MiSTing of a not so well known net.kook who
belongs to an organization that I have not heard of (CNNS), but
which may be worth monitoring by any other MiSTers if this is a
sample of the output that they create.

[Mike and the bots enter the theater. Mike pulls the banana from
out of Crow's catcher's mitt.]
Mike: Boy, you certainly don't see that everyday. Wonder what
Pearl has pulled from her bag'o'tricks.
>From: bi...@prairienet.org (Brian Redman)
Tom: One line into the post, and we're already hitting the
racial slurs. This could be a long, bumpy ride.
Mike: Uh, well Tom, I think that's just his name.
Crow: Mike, what's an "XC"?
Mike: I'm guessing he was trying to warn us that this post
would be a major excess, but misspelled it.
Tom: Yup, long bumpy ride.
>Subject: Has Bill Clinton Died?
Crow: Well of course, I mean it only makes sense that--WHA?
>Date: 18 Feb 1999 00:00:00 GMT
Mike: I can just imagine that this guy's VCR sits there and
blinks "00:00:00 GMT" and he has no idea how to fix it.
>Message-ID: <wjJy2.2574$2c.20@firefly>
Tom: Does that mean we can capture this post in a jar, and
derive pleasure from its few last flashes before dying?
Mike: Someone woke up on the dark side of the bed.
>X-Complaints-To: new...@prairienet.org
Crow: Now that's a line that you don't see in too many of these
posts.
Mike: Yes, but I have a feeling that those complaints somehow
don't reach the author.
>X-Trace: firefly 919298396 192.17.3.4 (Wed, 17 Feb 1999 18:39:56 CDT)
Tom: Finally, someone gave us a conversion between timezones.
When it's midnight in England and Spain, its just about
6:40pm in Texas.
>Organization: Prairienet -- Your Community Network for East Central
Illinois
Mike: Prairienet, eh? I guess that's fitting, since at the
slightest disturbance these posts seem to pop up out of
their burrows.
>Reply-To: bi...@prairienet.org (Brian Redman)
Mike: What did I tell you, replies to one address, complaints
to another.

Tom: Oh yes, it's double justified, that means it must be true.
Mike: Do these people really have nothing better to do than add
random extra spaces to make sure that every line of text
comes out to be the same length?
Crow: Woah! How did you do that?

reporting or research, so we'll just make it up as we go
along.

Tom: [Robin Leech] But watch what happens when it is dipped in
Silver Magic, in less than one minutes, the tarnish is
gone.
Crow: I tried that stuff once, a long time ago.
Mike: Did you like it?
Crow: Well, considering that the grill on top of my head used to
be a solid sheet of metal...

Tom: Have nothing to do whatsoever with us.

Tom: One can never take song cues too far!

Tom: "Avant-garde" must be another term for Cow Droppings.

sitcom star.?
>But if Bill Clinton is already dead, then the DNA sample which

Tom: But earlier they suggested that this other "Clinton," if
there actually is one, is in fact a clone of the "real"
"Clinton." If that's the case, wouldn't the DNA of the
two be the same? Therefore it wouldn't matter WHICH
"Clinton" fathered the child, the evidence would still
show either of them to be the father!

I have been (rightly) called on the carpet for playing with at
least one of the trolls. And I try to avoid paying attention to the
good--or at least morally ambiguous--doctor. But I also, by accident or
design, don't pay attention to some of our regulars. And I don't always
succeed anyway.
Therefore, in the spirit of things I'd like to welcome our newest,
bizarrest, and most likely to be dangerously insane regular. <raises beer

So did I; I wrote to Crusader Rabbit personally and explained
that this is an attack on both our newsgroups, and that no one on RATMM
was responsible for the cross-posting or in a position to stop it. He
understood and wished us luck with our troll problem.
