Okay, bub, you asked for it. A friend of mine in the ShowBiz/MST
section on CompuServe recently read Monsieur Foust's post re the ShowBiz
forum (a troublemaker, who shall remain nameless because it was me, reposted
his message there for its entertainment value). She posted a thoughtful
reply. Douglas is her cat, BTW.

With animosity toward none, I chortled heartily. Each online group
looks pretty darned silly to newcomers on first read, you know.
I'm not one to spout cliches, but there are people in this world far
worse off than all of us, and if you're like me, you'll think, "So?"

Hmmm, looks like old Greg (or should I say Ike?) is guilty of just about ALL
of these. Maybe if they left, the problem wouldn't be so bad.

And just to be fair, how many am I guilty of? Well, I often go as fRiNgE,
but I don't use it either as a replacement for my name nor do I insert it
between my first and last name. I post the FAQ (I don't think you CAN get more
on-topic). I don't trade eps. Well, gues ol' Greg here is the only guilty
one. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

Ha! You think I'm some little child who can be "dared" into doing
something I don't want to do. What kind of immature creature do you take
me for. I refuse! ....<Michael hums Stars and Stripes forever off key to

First of all you wouldn't use your real name too if it it was
Asswipe (that's pronounced Assweepay!). Actually, maybe you would
Eichelberger (that's pronounced asswipe!).
Second, I only insert cut little phrases inbetween my first and
second name to build up some dramatic tension, you know, kinda like a
drumroll. And now Michael.....drumroll please........Emond! <spontaneous
applause).
The veil? I can only assume you are referring to my new hobby of
putting on my sister's bride dress and yelling "Always a bride never a
bridesmaid". Then letting Kenneth Branaugh spin me around. Or are you
referring to the veil of sanity? Oh yes, I passed through that years ago.
It was fun.
We aren't funny anymore. Sadly this is true. We need look no
further than this post to see this. I mean I tried to be funny. The cross
dressing visual image, the obscure "Mary Shelly's Frankenstein"
reference. But somehow all of the jokes fell short. Now don't patronize
me and say "Now, now, Michael. I cracked a smile on the asswipe joke". It
was at best Beavis and Butthead humour. A sad reflection on my former
much funnier posts.
Thank you Greg. For opening my eyes. Yes you'll be flamed for
your post. Like Jesus died for our sins, so does Greg burn for our
unfunniness.

You misunderstand- what should people trade if they *don't* have a MST3K
tape collection yet? Why, something else potentially interesting, of
course! (If you got 'em, you can substitute "Akira Kurosawa or Alfred
Hitchcock films" for "Josie & the Pussycats" in the above. Your
"interesting" may vary.) I strongly suggest this method of trading for
budding MST3K tape collectors. It's much more likely to get a response
than, "Will trade blanks for MST3K."

No, but I saw a couple names I did recognize, and know those
people wouldn't have anything to do with organized troll groups, so I
wouldn't put too much stock in it anyway.
ObMST3K: Coleman Francis was a man with a vision. (I mean, an overriding
crusade for *something* is the only way you can explain how movies as
bad as his were made.) And his vision was Petey Plane. Haven't you no-
ticed how in _Red Zone Cuba_, _The Skydivers_, and _The Beast of Yucca
Flats_, a propeller plane played a pivotal part in the plot? (Sorry,
that alliteration just happened there.)

*ahem* If you were born in the late sixties with the name of the most famous

you, Greg) would say "How's Liz?" then life like Arnold Horshack on speed,

Um, actually, I agree. I mean, we should ALL be the same right? I mean, we're
all supposed to believe the same thing, right? We're all individuals! (I'm
not!)
Look, you pompous, overbearing, flatulating butthead of a planarium, everyone

Trek quite a bit, because I think it sucks. However, I do NOT think that,

Okay, how's this:
As he sat in his stuffy, dark, strange smelling room on another Saturday
night, Greg Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead, Denture Wearer) curled over the
keyboard of his Commodore 64 as strains from his K-Tel's Disco Fever wafted
in the background. "They don't pay any attention to me!" he thought as a tear
rolled down his acne-covered cheek. "None of those women send me naked
pictures like I ask! Clarinda won't send me her dirty underwear! It must be a
problem with all of them, not me I'll show them!" Greg Eichelberger
(Dickweed, Shithead, Denture Wearer) logged onto his ccrwest.org account,
thankful that his new 16 baud modem would allow him to post more drivel on
The Information Superhighway. "I know what I'll do," thought Greg
Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead, Denture Wearer). "I'll rip off a stale old
format that has been overused and abused and just isn't funny. Then I'll be
really funny by saying things like

bone! I'm a god of flamage!" squealed Greg Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead,
Denture Wearer) before he started his annoying wheezing laugh that scares
cats up to three counties away.
After posting his Magnum Flatulence, Greg Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead,
Denture Wearer) basked in the glow his Commodore 64 screen. "There," shouted
Greg Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead, Denture Wearer). "Now we know who
rules this place. I think I'll celebrate with some kickass music," said Greg
Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead, Denture Wearer), as he queued up his
Whitney Houston 45s. "Now, they have some new Claudia Schiffer gifs at
Washington University," said Greg Eichelberger (Dickweed, Shithead, Denture

all others to please stop. Just stop. O.K.? The flames, the
flame baiting, the insults, etc. No explainations. No excuses.
No free speech lectures. Take it to e-mail, write letters, make
obsene phone calls...I don't care. Just stop doing it here.
It's not funny anymore.

Huh? Have I been warped into some kind of alternate universe? That would
explain the beard I noticed this morning. (Well, either that or the fact
that I haven't shaved for two weeks.)

Knock, and the door won't be opened unto you, if you are too stupid to turn
the doorknob.

Oh, yeah. That book is definitely not recommended for anyone weak of
stomach....or anyone who can't stand the idea that we could all die quite
easily anytime soon...
Damn good book, though.

Evil Jen, maybe you could answer this question for me: was one of the
Monkees ever in the television show _The Banana Splitz_?
Don't look at me like that, I'm serious.
