Since "Jerk" is a verb, and possibly a noun, but most certainly not an
adjective, I'm not sure that my question was directed at you...

Sorry - while you've been getting older, I've been regressing to a
simpler time, when all but the shortest of words can be abbreviated to
catchy three-letter utterances... Apologies for the impression of free
beer..

Usenet isn't really what it used to be, is it? :o(

Somewhat like nostalgia. ;-}

Still, enough of this mindless banter - what are you doing with yourself
these days?

Oh, you know, the usual - working, buying a house, getting married,
periodically abusing TMA...

And yourself? Still hurtling towards death? Any news? :o)

I approve of the last one. I suppose the other three are just (almost)
inevitable consequences of life. "Life! Don't talk to me about life."

Will you be sending invitations to the (real) Adjective Army? I actually
went to a wedding in the Netherlands last year. Two members of another
online group tied the knot. It was (surprisingly) good to meet them and
several other members of the alliance.

>And yourself? Still hurtling towards death?

Yes, I'm afraid so.

>Any news? :o)

I haven't reached it yet. :-}

They're all intended to be read in the past tense, in the sense of "in
my summer holidays i spended my time getting married".

TMA was my best man, in fact. Well, one of them - I had my brother for
doing the actual speech, because I didn't completely hate all my
guests. Figured having TMA address them might be taking things a bit
far.. :o)

Had a lovely honeymoon in South Africa, which was extended by two
weeks thanks to the volcanic ash situation, so in the end I had about
five weeks there, which was rather nice :o)

In that case it seems that congratulations are in order. Who's the
(un)lucky woman?

Not to mention the things he might have said about you. ;-}
