	Actually, Dave, I feel compelled to come to guru's defense here. (My
underlying niceness seems to be breaking through the carefully constructed
covering of nastyism.) According to a friend of mine in Dublin, it's pretty
common to spell "shit" with an "e" in the UK, 'specially Ireland.

guru sez:
	I quoted it all for you, the entire article.

	Where does the article end and the sig start?

	How much f**king whitespace does the man need? Is there an impending
	shortage on it's way?

Although, it is not infrequent to see someone who was

The .sig is longer than the rest of the article put together.  -5 pts

Full Amiga check, with stupid slogan.  -15 pts

Three email addresses, at -5 per.  -15 pts

Four quotes, at -5 per, plus -20 bonus for the "That's not a .sig, that's
a fucking Bartlett's!" opportunity.  -40 pts

Internal slanty borders, internal horizontal borders, and one greater
than sign.  -15 pts

Total: -90, an A for sure.

"This newsgroup is like a big cuddly never ending 'Men on Usenet' skit.
The only problem is that instead of art, we have barfulous .signatures."

	Barbed-Wire border. That damn Cthulhu quote again. (FQIS point 1.)
The ubiquitous Amiga Check. (FQIS point 2.) Amiga enthusiast, Beer-Drinker,
Metal Head...well, I can deal with numbers two and three, but that damn Amiga
has to go.
	Verdict: Force him to be on Prodigy for 24 hours, drinking Perrier,
to the accompaniment of "New Age Hits To Hum".

I am fighting, hard, the temptation to cross-post this request to
alt.usage.english, with email copies to Roger Lustig and Mandar Mireshi ...

There's been a lot of this style of border around lately.  I suppose
the font is slightly more clever than the norm, but it's still fucking
ugly; and that H really makes me want to... well, heave.

It looks quite good if you run the Emacs auto-fill on it.  (I just did
so by accident.)
