Interesting observation, but quite in error.  I have laced all this talk
of sex with quotes by Bob Dylin, James Bond, W. Shakespear, as well
as several other literary references.  On top of that, some of my own
off the cuff bad poetry.

right, meredith, now up until now this has been a very peaceful
and friendly sleaze contest.  gina and i have been sort of working
together as fellow sleaze-queens...making all the men of alt.fan.m-p
*very* happy.  
then, you come in, steal my custard, muscle into my territory (dammit,
i'm the one who handles the whips!) and insult our wonderful vp whom
i adore even though i haven't formally met her.  i trust her abilities
as a sleazy woman and respect her.  
this has got to stop.  as i said before i am a peaceful soul, but still
i can be angry if properly provoked...
and i'm sure gina will start getting nasty *long* before i will..
let's not turn this into a crisco flame-fest.  grease fires are no fun.

Wait a minute...I vote for a motion to overthrow this...esp. regarding
Ratboy.  He had nothing to do w/ this "stuffing" on the part of the voters...
..and he knew absolutely nothing about it.  *I* took the privilege of
asking ppl to vote for him b/c:

1.)  There were no rules to warrant out asking ppl to vote from other
     newsgroups..
2.)  Jester did it...so what made it illegal...and therefore verifiable for
     anyone else who did to be disqualified??
3.)  Ratboy, and anyone else for that matter, had absolutely no way of 
     winning w/o the "stuffing" initiated by *Jester*...

This election is absolutely bogus...

Someone who wasn't in the election should have kept charge of the polls and
the voting...

..but that's just my opinion....

Ok, guys..I've had my say.  You can now *officially* swamp me w/ hate mail....
*sniff*  I was only looking out for the benefit of someone else...

Hasta..
