  Here's to a quick recovery, Scott. I'm about 8 months on this side of
my last cigarette, and I'm really glad I finally did it. You'd be surprised
at the number of lighters I haven't lost since then!  ;)

>P.S. Oh, BTW, here's the list :).

  Is this the first day of the list's existence?  If so, that means I
only came in 5 months late. Wow.

  No surprise... how often did he ever *say* anything, is the question. ;)

>  2  Jeff Beer                     1751

  No surprise... but the Bulls, the Bears and the beers have all helped
to pad this one.  But seriously, Beer has a higher s/n ratio than just
about anyone on the list, excepting John McIntyre, so who's complaining?

  I don't quite believe that one!  That'd be a posting every 34.5 hours
for the past three years if it's true. Gee. I thought I *had* a life!  ;)

  Who are these guys?  ;)

  Is this T9AA's alter-ego?

  One of Tim's many accounts...?

  He looks like he's headed down in the polls with ol' "n.n." -- hey woj,
how does it feel to be a "has-been"?  :)
  Sorry to skip down so far, guys, but I can only permit myself so much
bandwaste per month, and I'm already over my quota...

  And all in 14 sentences, too!

  Whatever happened to ol' Kurt?  It's a shame he's gone.

  Andy, too.

  You're not pulling your weight, cmv... try some one-line parting shots
this year.  :)

  And Dave from tTtSoF!!  Where th' hail has HE been?!?!  He brought us
the Cardiacs, for which I am forever grateful.

  ... who, btw, is getting married next month. You can send all the
expensive gifts to me. I'll see that he gets them.  ;)  He didn't believe
this when I told him about it (the #58 part, not the wedding plans).  ;)

  Whose total line count is still under the average line count of a
single Bloombuster... ;)

  Herb, the Frustrated-Mon. He was listed as having a Freenet account
after this address petered out, but I never did hear from him after he
left the list... did you?
