Danken Sie, mein Herr.  I did try to keep the words down to one syllable.
Except you can't spell `monosyllables' using monosyllabic words.  'tis
an incredible shame.  Herr Oleg der Arschloch flamed me for posting what
little info I had about the diatribe from "Woody".  It is beyond
comprehension that someone would actually flame me for trying to catch
the prepetrator of that posting.  'twould not be unlike shooting a cop
for trying to catch a mugger.

Where is it written that "HASA" is the defender of the poor and champion
of the oppressed?  I was under the misguided assumption that the members
of "HASA" were strictly interested in tripping up the Falwell crowd.  See
what I get for missing staff meetings?

My favorite is the line from the letter he wrote me. "You don't not want
to get into a NET flame war with me.  Trust me."  That was precious.

Anywho, I don't know if I should have taken Jess' statement as
congratulatory, but I do.  Not often I make it into the alt.flame Hall of
Flame as the Flamer of the Day, but I'll take it when I can.  I wish to
thank my mother, my agent, my manager, and my loyal public.  God Bless
each and every one of you!

I think I feel a good cry coming on.  

- John.
