I advise everyone to avoid Sloth MUD running out of Utexas. 
After putting up for six months with lack of reimbursements, gods
who show up and heal monsters you're fighting, and an incredible

  Telnet itself probably isn't... but alot of those Client programs
  out there cause major grief (here they frequently send the userid
  into nice tight little loops which tie up 100% of the processor)
  Plus, if there are a limited number of telnet ports available for

The sport of boomerangs is growing.  There are boomerang throwers all over 
the world competing in international, national, and regional tournaments.  
It's time you got involved.  Getting involved doesn't have to mean selling 
the ranch to invest in hudreds of dollars of flying wood to begin training
for the next World Cup.  But it does mean becoming aware and making others 
aware of the 15,000 yearold pastime that is sure to bring peace and harmony 
among nations as its renaissance into human culture becomes apparent.

I think it's Mr. Perot's belief that he would be doing the public MORE of

decades to create.

This is my belief as well.

Whew, for a while there I though Perot was running for U.S. president.  What a
relief it is to find out he's running for some other office where the winner
must receive a majority of the vote.

(For the humor challenged: the president is elected by the Electoral College
if and only if a candidate receives 270 or more votes.  If no candidate is
elected by the Electoral College, the House of Representatives elects the
president.  We, the people, don't elect the president directly.)

I am greatly satisfied that Ross Perot has returned and decided to finally
run this country where it should go. This country needs a leader who doesn't
have to follow intrest groups or political parties making decisions for them.
Ross Perot is a strong person and means what he says. His political background
isn't as big as Bush or Clinton but that is what we need, somebody who
hasn't been corrupt in the present political system. Perot is the man for the
job and my vote is for him

Perot answered the question directly, in this way:  You have a family

Let's see now.  "Consider this (campaign commercial) the first town meeting."
Stated with a straight face by Ross Perot.  Somehow, I thought he'd at least
try to give the ILLUSION of two way discussions.  Nope.  Ross' hired
economist (who now supports Clinton, you figure that one out) makes up
an economic plan, Perot presents his graphs about what is wrong with
America based on this crap, with no input from "you people".  That is his
idea of a town meeting.  Good work by a maniacal billionaire eccentric.

Now this world class campaign that he promised to run.  Well, his advisor
aptly named Swindle, said that "it wouldn't be efficient for Ross to
campaign in rallies and direct contact with the voters. There's just not
enough time."  Hmmm.  Who was it that decided not to enter until there
was only one month left?  The real reason is that he would get booed off
any stage he spoke from.  World Class alright.  30 minute drones from
Kingfish Perot?  No public appearances.  He'll get killed in the debates
where he will actually have to ANSWER questions instead of denying their
relevance.

Ross IS the crazy aunt in the attic.  After this year, nobody will talk
about him either.  Or his racist, braindead running mate, who should

	Well, I thought the debate last night went wonderfully for Perot.
He picked up big gains in credibility with the myriad times the other 
two said things like: "well now I agree with Ross..."

	The "quitter" issue has driven me nuts, as it has quite a number
of people. It was both the best and worst things he could have done. It
was necessary to keep the media off his tail and nitpicking him to death,
but at the same time it hurt his support immensely. He may have been able
to hunker-down and grind through the mess... who knows. I don't think he
really ever "quit" the race, just got back out for awhile. It was always
his intention to not do anything in the way of campaining until the last
few weeks anyway.

	At any rate, he's got my vote back again. (I had become a Clinton
supporter after he (Perot) pulled out of the race.) I like Perot's basic
attitude, namely: kick ass and take names. We need a non-politician.
We need someone with business instinct. We need someone with long-term
goals in mind. I'll also be voting against ALL the incumbents.

	Anybody know when the next info-mercial/town-hall is?

It's been a *long* time since there weren't at three choices.  Unfortunately,
people seem unable to even consider a candidate outside the political
establishment--the McCandidates proposed by the two major parties.  Perot's
big contribution to this race is that his incredible personal wealth makes
him impossible to ignore.

If our only lesson learned from this experience is that Republicans,
Democrats, and billionaires can run for president, we will have learned much
less than we could have.

All "third" parties are not populated by communists and extremists.
