Daniel, Daniel,  I honestly can't determine whether your recent post
was an attempt to trade insults or actually trying to suck up.

Wow.  I wondered what you'd do.  I'll give you credit for managing
to _confuse_ me.  It wasn't one of the effects I had anticipated.

The other two posts, though, the "_no_one_?" and the "Hi Bob", those were
clearly in the latter category.

I guess I'll let it go for a while.

But I do have to point out that the "Bayberry" stuff was not as original
as a few seem to have credited you with - after all, they keep misspelling it.
I do think it showed more creativity than you've demonstrated lately,
but I'm *not* hoping to see it again.

Besides, if the newbies are getting worried/scared/annoyed enough to
actually speak up about it, we should probably at least _pretend_ to
be civil to one another long enough for them to get a real
picture of what goes on here.

    Howdy.  I can't keep up on this newsgroup, and I just tuned back in

Hmm, she logged in from netcom2.  A quick check there shows no account with

Weekend boinks are usually well-attended, yes; I had over 80 people at
my place for the last MegaBoink a couple of years ago.  The midweek
boink series known as the HumpDayBoink can attract a goodly number of
people if it's well-planned, promoted and held at a site that's popular
and easy to get to.  The problem with weeknight boinks is that too many
people have stuf to do after work, or have to work late, or really
aren't up for doing anything other than going home and becoming One
with the Furniture.

I didn't go to the Tied House because I don't drink much anymore, and
my SO doesn't drink at all.  The times I've been there after work it's
been an aggressively loud, meat-market atmosphere.

Ah, the memories.

The first Boink I ever went to was at Vito's Pizza in Sunnyvale, musta
been 6 years ago, with Kent Paul Dolan, who I'm sure some ba.sniglets
must remember.  (He's happily married and living in Salinas now, BTW.)
I remember seeing Marvin there, and STella, and Mike Wincn, and others
whose names I can't recall or never got.  My SO says he was there, too,
though I didn't know him at the time.  I don't remember the nominal
excuse for the boink.  The memory is the second thing to go, they say.

Vito's is a cheesy (so sue me) little dive that serves the definitive
NY style pizza.  The back room seems to be blocked off these days, so
I don't know if there are parties there anymore.
