After watching in horror at what this beginner thought was push hands, he
ultimately worked his way to me and asked if I wanted to push hands. I told
him he didn't do push hands. We never touched hands or anything resembling
what he has said below. As far as I can tell he is psycho. It is
*possible* that he mixed things up in his mind, but I don't think so... I
think he makes up life as he goes along.
The person who forwarded me the message included a note to the fact that
Mario is a complete egomaniac who has been muscularly shoving other CMC
stylists around and who "wins in tournament wrestling calling it push hands"
and that even other CMC practitioners are embarrassed that he uses Professor
Cheng's name to support the crap that he does.
I invite him to defend what he has said below on this list. I doubt that he
is man enough to do it and I certainly doubt that he is man enough to
apologize for any of his misstatements.
I also would like to hear more about why he thinks he is an expert on Taiji.
As far as I know, almost everyone who knows him considers him a goon with an
attitude who is an embarrassment to Taiji. The only positive thing I ever
heard was "well, he's trying to get better".
It's my bet that someone like Mario is better at character assassination
than he is in intelligent debate.

Yes, and the fact that people like Mario and their wrestling could "win"
using muscle and technique was the final nail in the coffin and tournaments
totally lost their credibility after that.

Good. Now that you have initiated it, let's see what you know about Taiji.
We can all see that you are good at being obnoxious and representing the CMC
clan.
Why does your Taiji look nothing like CMC's yet you use his name?
Another surrogate???

I suppose you will call this a public service? Perhaps this is something you
should take up with Miller or whoever his sifu is and settle it there...

Crap.... this post of yours isnt debate, it's the same thing you're calling
him, keep your petty politics out of the newsgrou
Next we await you to call me a troll, moron, term of your choice and Chas will
be along to defend you I'm sure. I've spoke my piece, and you have done here to
enhance your percieved greatness Mike, as honest advice, this was pretty petty
how nice to see your greatness swelling as an attack on a beginner, an
egomaniac or not, you seem to be trying to come off like you're setting an
example, you're not.
Dear Captain insert term of choice here:
I would find your position more credible if you were as interested in
some of the other discussions that we have on the group. As it is, you
are an apologist for the TieCheese guys and not much else. That leads
one to believe that you have one agenda only- a surrogate for Don
Miller, an apologia for his position.
That dilutes your credibility, Cap.
Napoli certainly didn't present well- I don't know Mike well, but I know
him well enough to believe that Napoli is busily constructing from the
whole cloth.
Why is it you never come out unless it has to do with Miller et al? If
you have a defense for him, just speak up; if it's just that rodneyking
thing about 'getting along', you're wearing it out.

Maybe so, by Napoli isnt posting it here, Mike is, and as such it comes across
like Mike is the one looking to pick a fight, and in the past you two have
passed yourselves off as the types some owuld call role models, sometimes you
act the part, sometime ya dont, this is not one of the times seemingly for

this dumbassed fued, settle it somewhere else, you can think of me whatever the
hell you want, It doesnt matter, this whole fued is pointless and seemingly
endless.

Captain lethargy go be lethargic on your own time. This is a most interesting
discussion.
Yes, you have the mind of a slow lorus so why bother the rest of us who have followed
and understood and wish to see this interesting, sad, sadly enlightening, sobering
discussion play itself out?
Why must you be a dolt who sticks his nose in where it most surely has not one
tidbit of interest.
You interrupt incessantly like a spoiled child with a soiled diaper. Leave.
You are not wanted by anyone who is remotely interested in the issues and the
discussion. You have no name, you don't belong. Go chase a cat. You are an annoyance
unawares of just how vain and empty and without purpose you appear to anyone with a
serious mind.
Respectfully yours,
Mark "Go away...mad, happy, whatever you want" Goldberg
By the same level of maturity you seem to want to display, why dont you just
grow up and accept the fact that you live in a less than perfect world where
people might just say mean things about you, if this is what you're really
like, you probably deserve it.
How horrible for you, now quit your self promotion and get over Miller and get
over yourself.

Like I said- they should have picked an arena in which they felt a bit
more competent and able. So far, this hasn't been a good choice for
them- and you're not looking very well either.

Why- he didn't write a stupid little story about Napoli- it is the other
way around. Why don't you contact Napoli and censure him for making
mouth farts without any substance?

They wanted the 'feud' to be right here- they picked the arena, they
picked the weapons and the circumstances. They're also taking a hell of
an asswhipping-
What bothers you about that- rolemodelwise?

i'll back Mike. I've met the man, seen the goods, and trust him to be honest.
you have no idea of the scope and history of this sort of bickery- it goes
back years, and is a tad more serious than you seem to be inclined to
believe. you may moonlight as a martial 'artist' and feel that this all
beneath you and your mushin-mind, but for those who dedicate years and lives
to it, this is life's blood.
you come across as shallow and not cognizant of the realities. yes, indeed,
the internet should amp your bullshit dectector to hitheroto unseen levels of
alertness, but the very fact that Mike Sigman signs his name and dishes out
the goods with no shifty behavior should go miles towards convincing you of
the gravity of this type of stuff.
if you know nothing, clam up. if you don't care, read on. if *this* bothers
you so freaking much and the endless waves of spam do not, then do some self-
examination, and then go harrass them, for a useful change of pace.

This I find hilarious. I have yet to see Mike Sigman do any sort of
"self promotion". Hell, when I asked about videos once he didn't
promote his own. He simply stated it's better to know what it feels
like first, other than that tapes are ok. Not "my tapes are ok" but
"tapes are ok".
Hell, I don't even do taiji and I find this thread fascinating.
Evidently so do you, if only to bitch about each and every post.
Pierre
I still think he's a shill for Miller and lying about it because he's
anonymous and can't be checked- it's pretty obvious that Napoli is, and
there are other anonymous trolls that are of the same ilk. None of them
says anything that they have the balls to back up in scholarly debate or
in person on the floor.
Miller has a vested self interest in proving that 'bodybuilding=taiji'.
It's his source of income, his source of influence over these
'thousands' of students, it validates his 'world's championships' and so
on. His performance in Atlanta was so ludicrous, that only a couple of
people have presented it as positive and they've been laughed off the
group- presently, they're looking at very expensive litigation over the
racial slurs and religious defamation, so they're getting their last
licks in. The papers are almost ready for service to them and filing in
Federal Court. I can guarantee them some weeping, wailing and gnashing
of teeth-
I don't notice 'Captain Lethargy' posting on much of anything else. When
Miller's people say something, he's quiet- when those postings are
answered with facts, he starts whining about 'can't we all just get
along?'. He is a partisan sycophant.

I'll start here dummy, because it actually is possible, just beyond you limited
abilities, It's cute that your fuckwitted obsession with having no name to

I'm not, if you think otherwise, and only because your precious alledged (Key
word here) credibility are so precious to you chump, prove I am, can you? I
tend to doubt it, easily for the false christian to throw out false

Speaking of obsessions.... I'm beginning to think Chas is right. "Captain

the other side. :^)

Well of late I'm more of a punchy stabby type but hell I'll be your

Apologies to all real cowgirls.

apparently to get under the skin of siggie worshipping losers like you
obsess on Mike, incidentally you are exactly right, I am a plant, I'm watching
you, I record every little paranoid word that you say, jack ass. Echelon hears
all. Sleep well.....
No, you are an ass who worship Suckmaster Mike, because I can only assume you
dont know any better, tai chi in the uS is a glorified aerobics class, and I
could really crap on the idea that I am a Miller plant, Chump and Suckleboy are
really amusing me right now. To be trolled and not even know how much, Mike is
a paranoid fool, he deserves whatever comeuppance his delusions find him.
Eww, that hurt, maybe not.................

Well- you actually said something. And I agree that it is a glorified...( not
aerobics ) but something worse. See, when you use your brain it can actually
squeeze out an idea.
> ...not even know how much, Mike is
> a paranoid fool, he deserves whatever comeuppance his delusions find him.
No, you are incorrect. I have met him. Discussed with him. Observed him. He is
nothing of what you imply. No one should worship any of this and he's the first to
put this info out. You are not using your brain now. You are squeezing your mental
weeny. Now why not go back to the brain...there's stuff in there apparently when
your not mentally masturbating.
Mark
Forget it Mark. Look at the words he's been using. He's gone from the
"casual observer" to direct and focused insult to me... it's obvious he's
one of the Miller - deThouars crowd now. Why doesn't that surprise anyone?
Mike
prove it Mickey, just because you got so abused by him? snif....
Mike you have to be used to this sort of thing by now. Whether or not anyone
agrees or not with you isn't the point anymore. You could be selling lead
for gold or gold for lead & it just wouldn't matter to this crew. There are
things you say I disagree with and this is normal ( who ever agrees with
everything someone else says ) but at least I read & think. I doubt that
there is much thinking going on here by this crew. I think I'd tend to just
ignore them, go away & get on with things. ( not as simple as it sounds I
know )

too true- have at em. the reason everybody is pissy is that they have
got a natural store of belligerence and you make a big fat target when
you flippantly declaim on the relative worth of a conversation. so,
takes your lumps and dishes some out; but don't be too surprised. :)
bear in mind that you did in fact attack Mike's reputation, integrity
and livelyhood and he takes it amiss in all seriousness.
Certain types of people don't say or do anything other than
what they mean exactly and don't have much shrift for folks who are just
being idle.
Have fun- remember, the whole world is watching...:))

What, did you have 'lackwitted coward' tattooed on your face?
It's so hard for a Mother to accept that she has whelped such as you; a
faceless, sniveling craven little bootlicker.
But hey, nice talking to you-
That long whistle you hear is your punkass pinheaded little persona
hitting the killfile-

Well, let's start here, Mouthio... er, Mario. You claim to do CMC's Tai
Chi. Can you tell us ONE recognized expert or senior student of CMC who
will publicly state that what you call "push hands" is representative of
what CMC taught????????
Many people would like you to face up to that question and admit publicly
that what you do is not really something that you should be laying at CMC's
doorstep and using his name.

You haven't answered the question, Mario. Why does your Taiji look nothing
like what CMC taught?????
BTW, below is an excerpt of a public message you made to another CMC'er that
shows your enormous ego and your lack of concern for anyone other than
yourself. I want you to know that this sort of insolence is the reason I'm
dragging you into a discussion. People like you don't belong in Taiji ...
you don't even do Taiji.

Not to mention the people you call "Fool", etc., in public and your constant
brags about how you won at some low-rent tournament so therefore what you do
must be Taiji.
Tell me what push-hands is Mario. Let's talk about push hands. You say it
is the same thing as judo, right? Tell me what all the talk about "jin" in
Taiji is about.

Sorry Tom, Mike never will do it, His little ego wont let him.
Get used to it Mario, this is how Mickey promotes himself, by pettily tearing
down others, ask Sifu Mike.
Like you're credible in technical matters or matters of ethics, huh Mickey.
Sifu Miller would be disgusted with you. How long can you deface his name?
I can hardly wait for the patented Mike Sicklemustard character assasination to
begin, serve to you Mario
Oh the horror, and not even a threat before he did it, for shame, stinky
I dont believe I've whined yet about Mickey being mean to me, all I can really
do is get in line

As he always does, but he puts his own rep on trial everytime he lashes out
against someone and tears them down all while hiding behind making a living

How long can you attack people without signing your real name? "Sifu

doing not too much to help his reputation, are you?
Mike Sigman
and lordy Mark, your opinion means soooo much to me, know what, cling to
Mickey, you seem to make a good remora. Sucklemenstrate seems to enjoy keeping
pets. I'm as man as any of you pushy hand folks and I'm still anonymous, what a
horror.
His repuation stands on it's own two feet, and the anonymous standing of my
superior opinion just eats at you, doesnt it MickeyMustard?
You are not standing up to him if you don't have the balls to sign your
name.
Dave Murray
No; you contemptible turd.
Not one of you mealy mouthed weasels has had the cods to step forward

anonymous little shitespitters have stooped to puerile fatmouthing from

and are contemptible in your cowardice.
But hey, have a nice day.
And you Mister interloper dont know nor can you prove my name is not in fact

Sure- I'll even call you Captain Turd- a deserved honor for which you've

Is that a rank in your style? Judging from the video taped evidence, it
is too easily attained to be worth much.

'Sifu' Miller- bwahahahahaha
you guys are hilarious-

You guys are *organized*?
That is even funnier.
You're trying to tell me that this series of actions on the part of
Miller et al has been *deliberate*- talk about the blind leading the
halt.
This is just too good- organization..... <g>

'ex'?
You've made no criticism of any note- nothing dispositive; you make a
few snide remarks and resort to namecalling. You're like a fat chick in
a short dress; you don't want to show your ass, but the decisions
already moot.
> >But hey, have a nice day.
> Apparently your killfile doesnt work well....
Heh- you're not the first to fall into that trap. That just means you're
stupid as well as incompetent.
'Captain Turd'- your reputation is secure; reflective of your mentor,
the General.
Is this fun or what?
A C.O. has the balls to sign his name oh pusillanimous one. Proof enough.
You seem to have self esteem but no self confidence, you should learn a
martial art and resign from N.O.W.
Dave Murray
Till next time boys
Can't.
'Sifu Miller' has promoted him a 'Captain Turd' in the Lesser Shuddering
Chicken Style- they flap around and make bwaak noises when they're
confronted with a reasonable question like; 'who's your teacher?', or
'*that's* fa-jin?', or 'Taiji? Really?' (that's actually two question, I
know)
Their primary technique is a variation on being nibbled to death by
ducks.
NOW is 'blood in, blood out'.

Gentlemen:
Please let me be the first to offer 20% of all royalties for the
exclusive video rights to each of you (40% to total). I will travel at
my own expense, make the video under simple evidentiary requirements,
absorb all primary costs of manufacture and distribution and give you
each a couple dozen copies for gifts to your friends. There will be no
commentary afterwards though.
And I'd like to say, Mr. Napoli; you're the first one to step forward
with any sort of integrity. The rest of the organization has been
woefully lacking in that regard and it just goes to show that even a bad
barrel of apples will always yield enough to make a good Pan Dowdy.
So, where'd you learn your push hands, buddy?
First of all, who says you push hands? Give us some names of who says you
push hands, other than people in the tournament crowd.... and even they
concede that tournament push hands is not really push hands. Answer some
questions, Mario. Try to see if you can answer in a dignified manner...
after all, you imply that you represent the CMC style.
Ben Lo and T.T. Liang say that tournament and muscular push hands is crap.
Tell us why you think what you do is push hands.
5 Mickey if
> you're so good and so tough why wont you push with me.Instead all you do

I think what you do is not push hands, Mario. I think all you use is
strength, aggression, and technique. And a lot of mouth. Unfortunately,
I'm not in NYC and you're not in Colorado. Do you think that anyone who
beats someone in a pseudo-pushhands match does Taiji???? I think you're
full of it, Mouthio.
Tell you what... how about if I get someone to stand in front of you and we
call it push hands,.... since you don't seem to have any rules for what you
call push hands. You like to dodge, get under, and come in. That's your
best guess about what Taiji is. I'll bet I can get someone who has never
done Taiji who can beat you and throw you down. Will you then tell us that
person has better Taiji just because of that encounter?
> P.S. Mickey thank you for defending the honor of Cheng Man Ching players.
> I for one applaud you kind gesture
>
> Till next time boys
It's NEXT TIME, Mario. John Carlo has volunteered to meet with you in what
he calls push hands, since I'm not there in New York. Now, John has never
done push hands, so I'll explain to him what I think the rules are... you
don't seem to want to discuss rules Mario... and you'll get a chance to see
how good John's "push hands" are. If he throws you around, will you call
it push hands???? I don't think you do push-hands, Mario, so how are you
going to judge if John does push hands.
Let's set the time and place for your encounter. It's NEXT TIME now, Mario.
Mike Sigman
> So, where'd you learn your push hands, buddy?
When I and a number of others first saw people like Don Miller get into the
tournament scene, we were sort of horrified. Basically the we thought the
worst-case scenario was happening. Miller and some others took the route of
the lowest-of-the-low push hands tournaments (the Taiwan tournament, which
even many Taiwanese try to disavow). So the muscle-scrabble push-hands got
started because a lot of the "names" in Taiji were really more of the hippy
generation and assumed that anyone who beat them at push hands must know
Taiji. What no one stopped to think was that neither the touchy-feely
group did Taiji nor did the muscle-scrabble group.
Notice how Mario won't answer with a direct reply to how long he studied
Taiji with a legit teacher before he "entered a tournament and won his
weight division". In other words, Mario was the supreme case of an
aggressive athlete going into the chicken coop like a fox.
Notice how Mario won't answer the direct question of what, if any, senior
student of the CMC style (the style Mario claims to practice) recognizes
what he does as legitimately representing what CMC was teaching. He can't.
Most CMC'ers are too embarrassed to talk about this monster that has been
created by the fact that too many people have been too shy to speak out and
protest that he is ruining the CMC name. Too bad... they brought this on
themselves.
Sure, Mario has some defenders, but there are always people in every style
who can't do Taiji and think that "winning competitive push hands" is some
sort of positive thing. However, a lot of these people are really into it
for the self-promotion and ego side of it. Look at people like Lee Scheele,
who openly supports Mario... Lee is a big 260-pound walking emotional case
who is always looking for recognition. In fact, Lee Scheele is so keen on
shoving people around, including fairly weak women, that I have gotten some
interesting emails about his habits. These are the kinds of people that
support Mario Napoli.
So where did he learn his push hands? He says that push hands and judo are
the same thing. He's worked all of this out for himself. He's a genius,
it seems.
I want to know about his push hands, too... but he doesn't seem to want to
answer. He just wants to "get it on" like that will answer things. So
let's see him "get it on" with John Carlo and see what it proves about his
push hands... then maybe Mario will be willing to get back to a sensible
discussion.
Mike Sigman
Its so cute you take sarcasm literally, I have plenty of self confidence, but
you in your simian ways seem to miss the point, I started out offering some

Cuz of your conduct slackwit and your ilk, you dont derserve my name, neener

Actually the truth of all of this is much more fun, do you and your little
playmates feel a tighteness in your shoulders? You should ;)
keep working on your english, you'll get there, but understand, Mickey is
keyboard tough and even if he shows up, it's just for a fatherly chat over tea.
He's not even a teacher by his own past admission.
Is this supposed to be better than meeting in the alley out behind a strip
club, Mustard boy? What you think the rules are? For all your noise, dont You
KNOW? How nice of you to set up meetings with no presonal risk.
Bock bock bock, new chinese dish, Mickey-Mustard chicken ala wuss

This from a non teacher who "thinks" he knows the rules kinda like a ballet
wannabe, is that it, are you a ballerina to, Mickey?
So the muscle-scrabble
push-hands got >started because a lot of the "names" in Taiji were really more

excuses, your bud Chas seems hippyish, now you turn on your alledged friends?

you are mistaken- Mike is not making a living doing this. according to all
reports, he has a secure station and desseminates his information on a
peculiarly noble crusade of truth and honesty. his abrasive side, well, hell,
you can't fight and not get it.
as well, bear in mind that he puts his literal, real ass on the line- martial
arts seminars have always had a wild west thing; he has not, to myknowledge,
backed out, down, or off a fight over his skills or anybody else's.

I can't see any evidence that 'Sifu' *could* lower himself any further.
In fact, I don't see any evidence that his credibility could be any
lower; his reputation certainly couldn't be much lower; his prospects
are looking lower all the time, and he probably couldn't get much lower
in his choice of champions and supporters.
But, don't stop now- you're making friends and influencing people every
moment. With associates like you and Roger Brockman, just losing his
credibility is the least of his worries; you guys are like having a
sunburned boil- kinda your own fault, but that doesn't stop the pain
much.
I wish he had two more like you; on the end of his nose.
You have plenty of self confidence, just not enough to walk behind your
words with your name. You either miss the point that you have no
credibility as an anonymous troll, or you truly are a master of the lesser
shuddering chicken style. I could give a crap less about your thoughts

I could give a shit less about the beef between others. Mike Sigman, Chas,
and Don Miller are grown men that can fight their own battles, not my thing.
You don't "bug me", rec.martial-arts is arm chair amusement, not martial
arts. People that want to pontificate their views with an air of authority,
without risking their reputation by posting their names are amusing. I just
enjoy reminding the pusillanimous of what they are, pussies. Like I said
before, you should become a martial artist so you can develop the self
confidence to match you self esteem. Then you might even earn some self
respect for yourself and decide to sign your name.
By the way, if your new bogus return address is an attempt to pretend that
you are Miller, he might want to kick your ass for that. I'm sure that he'd
sign his name if he posted here, he doesn't appear to be as shy as you.

That's what I thought. You don't even do Taiji. You don't know what it
is. You do wrestling and whoever wins is what you call Taiji.

You're a liar. Tell us the details. How many people do you think DON'T
know about the big gag where you entered the push hands without ever really
studying Taiji? You posted on the CMC list that when you and I saw each
other (1994) you were a beginner and had only been studying a "couple of
years". Crap. That was when a lot of people laughingly told me you hadn't
really done any Taiji before and were there to enter the push hands
tournaments. Now you're claiming 13 years. Bullshit. All your lies
do is make a mockery of the CMC style and all the people in it.
If a bozo like you can enter a bullshit tournament and win without any Taiji
experience, then tournament Taiji is useless. It doesn't mean you're any
good at Taiji.
If the CMC crowd doesn't have the sense to disavow you (to be fair, I have
to admit that a lot of them do, but not publicly), then they deserve to have
you ruin their name.
You think a MAN is somebody who scams other people and then makes money off
of them teaching bullshit?

What... you don't want the contact information for John Carlo so you can
taste his Taiji??? C'mon Mario.... I thought you were ready to rock and
roll.
Mike Sigman
It was in an earlier post. Think about it... you fuck with my name, I fuck
with yours. You avoid answering questions and everyone notices that all you
can do is bullshit. Try answering questions, Mario. Let's hear what you
know about Taiji. Already, many people who knew the truth about how you
just muscled your way into tournament push hands without any real
training... now they also know you're willing to lie about it.

> hate to tell you.Then his tai chi his better then my
This is what I want everyone to see. Taiji means nothing to you... you just
want to "win" at a restricted format engagement and then claim that it
proves your Taiji. Basically you want to muscle people and call it Taiji.
You have no idea what jin is, do you, Mario?
Tell us what jin is and how you use it in push hands, Mario. And no, you
egomaniac, I'm not even vaguely interested in "learning" from you. I just
want you to expose yourself with your words. Friends of yours like Lee
Scheele may admire you for "Tai Chi", but everyone else will know that you
don't even know what Taiji is.
> don't mean to run but I have got a date with MOM
Great. But you've got a date with John Carlo so he can beat you at Tai Chi,
Mario. You think winning anything is winning at Tai Chi... you'll love
John's, I'm sure. Let's set the date.
Once you understand that there might be a difference in what you call Tai

What is the point of this statement? The question was posed: What is
Jin in your understanding, and your answer has nothing to do with the
question.
By all accounts it's a failure.
This reminds me of what I feel Jing and Taiji Jings to be all about.
If you can picture a rotating yin and yang, and anogther rotating yin
and yang, but maybe one of them is not rotating as smoothly as the
other one. Well in that case, in a global sense, one of them is a yin
and yang and the other one is not. So if I were to push hands with
someone who was better than I, they might be able to pull out my
muscles one by one even though I didn't think I was using any of them,
because in a grand equalizing kind of sense he is better than me. But
if I used my "jings" on someone who didn't know taijiquan and only a
stiff man using karate for example, then it should be trivial easy for
me to uproot someone using lu and/or cai in push hands.
The key I guess really is to invest in loss. After all it's not about
winning, so what do you think it is about, then?

Dear Mike;
I know I am not involved in this thread but I am curious. I wonder
what would happen if this is true? I mean, eventually someone is going
to find out who he is.

p.s. Chas is right, who cares, everyone else is doing it :)
Carlo doing Tai Chi?
Something does not compute.

Welcome to the World of Tai Cheeee. If you had half an idea how many
loonies like this guy are not only in Taiji but who are also "teaching" and
in some cases considered "experts" by other know-nothings... you'd stay
away, just like you're so wisely doing right now. The only reason I get
involved is because I have a low IQ and I'm not smart enough to realize that
I can't change much. :^)
Mike
It just stands to reason- hell, they just found a guy in a little
student apartment in the stinkin' Filipines! There is a trail on
everything that leads right back to homeplate.
There's at least one guy on this group that traces computer hackers for
a living- it doesn't take him a newyork second (of which there are 72 to
the minute) to trace someone. Generally they turn out to be dinwiddy's;
just some guppy with a box sitting in a dark room eating Cheetos.
Like I say; I like your stuff and I think you'll whip Gichokes ass <g>
bon chance-
Hey Fu-
Do you know how to look at whatever it is you look at and tell when
things are posted by the same guy or from the same source?
Is this our own 'Captain Lethargy' or a pseudoCap'n- sort of a Sears
knockoff- this one seems a lot dumber than the other one.
This one is so...... ordinary- He makes Mario look like Demosthenes- but
dull.

I feel like carrying a can of bug spray every time I reply or listen to these
birds. You have one strong stomach.
Man they're some filthy buggers. All they can do is soil themselves and rub it
all over the walls.
Frankly, they're disgusting.
It's like they all nursed at mommies nipple till 14, then graduated to giving
mom chia pets year after year on mothers day, whilst she silently prays the
rosary for lightning to take her away from them.
When I first started to listen in to the discussions about taiji, and it's
problems and all the new taichi experts back in 94', I thought maybe the
problem was being overrated by you and others.
It is worse than I would have imagined back then. Way worse.

I'm not Fu, but this is a fascinating discussion. Both
"Captain Lethargy" and "Miller" are posting from the
same server (news.ntplx.net) and are both using the
same (uncommon) newsreader. There's a good chance that
they're the same person.
(And the word you were looking for is "headers".)
