Bigass peeve here:  Yestiddy, I wuz out wid me brudder, the cripple.  He
drives a nice, big, powerful Chevy truck, but he is no less the cripple.
He generally always takes advantage of his handicapped tags and parks in
those parking spaces with the blue background and the little stickman
seated with a hoop coming outta his butt.  The so-called "handicapped"
spaces.

So, brudder and I pull up and park in front of an Atlanta eatery.  As we
get outta the truck, some self-righteous pair of yups decides to really
scrutinize us (couple of young, apparently healthy guys) up and down and
then to register dispproving looks upon their faces as they continue
walking onward.

Well, they, too were going into the the same place.  As the four of us
waited out front to be seated, brudder pulls up his pants leg enough
for the yups to see the horrible scarring from a foot amputated, then
reattached at the ankle.  "I believe that is what you were looking
for?," he said coolly.

The woman looked to be on the verge of either tears or nausea.  I
couldn't tell which.  She excused herself with Mr. Yup and went off
to the toilet.  That, of course, was the anti-peeve.  Something
about the color and/or texture of scar tissue that some people just
cannot handle.  Poor Heather!

Yours for the mobility disadvantaged,
  Bill

I have had a few.  I am obviously not as enamored of them as you are.  I like

The hand is doing fine now.  I appreciate whoever it was that sent me a
card with a San Jose postmark.  A secret admirer, eh?  I'm really
flattered.  And just the slightest bit scared by it.

Just a little stiff, but I have been giving it some therapy and wrapping
it in a hot pad each night.  It isn't funny colors on the back any more
and hasn't been for about a week, I suppose.  It is still a bit on the
swollen side.

The peeve is that it's still kinda tough to "grab" things with the hand
yet.  I had some barbecued ribs over the weekend and had to settle for
eating them with a fork.  I just KNEW that if I picked the ribs up with
my hands that I'd have a spasm and drop the little buggers all over
myself.

Russ Kepler was around this neck of the woods Saturday (and last week),
so we Atlantans showed him a good, testosterone-filled time at the
shooting range and then out to devour some dead cow and dead pig at one
of the city's most renowned steak places (Pilgreens).  I got more food
than I could have possibly eaten and had to take some of the ribs home.

I dropped Russ back off at the palacial Hilton, so he could rest up and
get over a lingering crud-bug and get up at oh-dark-thirty to catch
the airport shuttle.  A good time had been had by all, but then again I
didn't think Russ was the vegetarian type and so would certainly enjoy
Atlanta's best steak.

On top of all of that, I had heard how it is customary in Albuquerque to
take visitors to the top of Sandia Peak and get them roaring drunk on
half a can of beer.  My plan was to get Russ up on Stone Mountain and get
him roaring drunk on a half can of beer.  But those plans never came to
be.  Maybe next time one of you degenerates comes to Atlanta...

Sinisterly,

I don't see where tears, lies & wanking off come into this.  I certainly
didn't mention them.  Perhaps, like Stevie, you are thrown off balance by
the fact that I am a woman.  Therefore, crying, prevarication and mastur-
bation are theonly way you have of dealing with me as a member of the 
fairer sex.

Perhaps you ought to talk to Mikey about getting into a frat.

Jeepers, boy!  I warn't gloating.  I think most people can do two things
at once.  Some can do seven or eight.  It's no big deal.  I was simply pointing
out that Andy's options of post or suck were not mutually exclusive.

Why I'm quite certain many people could do as much.  I wouldn't be surprised
in the least to discover that you posted the flame to which I am responding
while plyaing the skin flute of one of your Ozzies.

And if so, I'm very impressed by the lack of typos.

I get the impression that you believe:

	3. That Curtis is a homosexual for using the word "wankhole"
	4. That alt.homosexual is a newsgroup...
		a. For homosexuals who masturbate.
		b. For Curtis.
		c. At all.

You are mistaken.

I also get the impression that you are homophobic and regard calling someone
or intimating that someone is a homosexual is an insult and a Bad Thing.

Well, even the murricans have probably had it plastered all over MTV
that Liz Regina's (aka The Queen) house burned down.

Bad news huh?

The good news (if you're not a philistine like me (what did the
Phillistines do to get this rep anyway?)) is that human chains, icluding
members of the Royal Family, helped rescue a few piccies.

So anyway, large chunks of Windsor Castle have been oxidised and that
means that the recently averted trade war between us and the yooess has
been put on the back burner. If you'll pardon the pun :-)

So what, you may ask, is the problem? After all, Liz is well know to
have not a few houses dotted around the place. She even has one in
Edinburgh.

Now, it's not for me to tell the investigators their business, and of
course I'd best avoid libel, but some other interesting facts have come
to light on the evening news:

The rooms that were burned out were mostly empty.

The castle had its own fire brigade which was drastically reduced recently.

There was no effective sprinkler system.

"Aha!" The budding Perry Mason's will think, "An insurance job!".

Now it is true that there have been threats to make the Queen pay tax
like the rest of us, and if it weren't for her being the richest person
in the world and all, she might well be looking for quick cashflow.

However, the killer as far as this theory goes is:

It wasn't insured.

Now the more astute amongst the audience (which means everyone except
Dalhousie will have, with some knowledge of my pet obsessions) already
have figured out the peeve. Still, for the benefit of the slowest, we'll go
through this slowly and in stages. So:

"Gee, too bad Liz-babe. Dumb move not to insure the castle huh? I guess
you lose. Still, I guess you can afford a few tens of millions huh?"

Like yeah, right. true etc.

But guess who is actually picking up the tab?

Yep, you guessed it. 

The Taxpayer.

Which is to say, me, Tony, et al.

Just great.

Like Liz-babe would pick up my tab if I forgot the insurance.

So what it amounts to is the taxpayer is going to pay for the castle of
the richest person in the world who not only doesn't pay any bloody
taxes but is too genetically inbred to have the sense to insure the
place.

Sheesh. I demand a Republic.
