#7  Ever get the impression that Pappy has experience yelling at people? Posted by SteveS

I've always had the sense he doesn't suffer fools well...if that's what you are referring to. An admirable trait in my opinion.

#6  Actually, USN, I think tw would always be good cop. She would invite the troll to sit down, calm down, have a nice cup of camomile tea, and relax.

Then she would cut the troll to ribbons. Or maybe she would leave that to Pappy.

#5  SteveS: I do not think I would want to be on the receiving end of a 'mixed doubles' arse chewing with/from TW and Pappy. Sorta like Bad Cop Worser Cop.

#3  And that thing Pappy just did, dear Readers, is how real writers write when they're annoyed by pretenders.

I'm awfully glad he chooses not to be easily annoyed.

#2  Would it mean I'd no longer have to put up with your mindless, repetitive, hit-the-F5-macro prose, Hemingway? Don't you wish you were a Writer?

I did mention "mindless"? And "repetitive"? How about "lame"? No? Well, add that to the mix.

You mention "Moslems" a lot. A lot. I did say "a lot," right? It's almost like like a fetish with you. Like "stinky boots" and "mustaches" and "fly whisks" and "butts in the air." Nothing about "fezzes", though. Or leather chaps. Why?

You did mention a "jeep" once or twice. And "nurses." I guess you'd just seen a M*A*S*H episode.

Ever been to the Mid-East, Hemingway? Oh, that's right - it was "Veet-nam" for you. As a Marine. Supposedly. Or was it "Pakistan"? No, that one was dredged out of the history books. Repeatedly. I don't know where your information on "Egypt" came about. Don't want to know, either.

I guess we should be grateful it isn't the psuedo-Ian Fleming slasher-porn prose you used to throw against the wall as Angleton9. At least Fleming had beautiful girls in his stories. With you, we get "goats" and "looking through stuff" for loose change.

Don't you wish you were a Writer?

#1  A heart warming story. A bagatelle of Moslem sentimentality and fun. Don't you wish you were a Moslem and lived in a Moslem country?
