This is getting out of hand. When, in a purely jocular mannor, I refered to Sophie Quigley as suffering from the above I had no idea the others (Wheeler) whould pile on as well. Poor Sophie. I really don't think she so suffers. In fact Sophie is one of my favorite net personalites who I count at night to fall asleep. (Sophie . . . Rosen . . . Hua . . . Keebler . . . Colin . . .Ken). (( 'whom' I also count as well)) Despite the fact that she (Sophie) keeps thrusting her breasts, electronically speaking, in my face - witness her reply - and some of the workings of her mind I fine to be unfortunate, I still do not want to be part of any 'get Sophie' team. Ken Perlow has assured me that she is ok and I value his judgement in this matter if not in others. (he's an unwashed skeptic but insightful) So I retract my notion that Sophie suffers from 'penis envy'. However not that she suffers. Trisha on the other hand . . . . She puts forward the absurd notion that I, I suffer from the above mentioned affliction! One the strength of 'it takes one to know one'. Well Trish . . . . Anyway, if anything I have been accused of having large marbles on the net and does anyone seriously think that that condition goes with a small carrot? Besides, I have a healthly view of myself, loving myself the way I do, and envy no man. So tish tosh Trish! Why just the other day I was eating lunch with a woman (girl) coworker and as is my wont declaiming on the philosophy of science or for guns or against public schools or all three, I forget which, when she broke in with, "You are a good looking son of a bitch." Of course I just ignored her, knowing that already - don't you just hate it when people state the obvious? - and went on with her education. But you see, I have no problem in 'that' department Sophie and Trish! Gotta go to a staff meeting. More later fans. Lov ya Ken Arndt
