80-column club.  Stolen stupid quote.  (It's only borrowed if he gives it
back when he's done.)  Two email addresses, and a phone number.  (Does
anyone ever just pick up the phone and call someone because of a net
post?)  A katana FROM a midwestern computer geek.  And he's sigging in
the rain.  (Only three asterisks, and no BUAF, so I guess we can let him
live.)

Don't sweat it, Noah -- any excuse for posting your fine example of
Artificial Stupidity is worthwhile. Personally, I think your
demonstration that the typical sig-creator can be emulated almost
exactly by a page or two of Elisp is one of the most compelling
meta-warlords I've yet seen. One warning though: the amount of effort
that obviously went into it was considerable, and unless you can
document that you did it for extra credit in a programming class or
something, we'll have to conclude you are a No-Life Low-Life and
induct you into the Inner Circle.

Personally, I hope Mr. Singh is a newcomer to the English language.  
That way, his call to the Pink Poodle (Bascom Ave, San Jose, CA, USA)
will last a bit longer.  At least until he finds out what exactly it is
they sell there (it ain't no pet supply store, Jethro...)

Dang, I love this job.

This isn't directed at anyone in particular, but I've had this Faith
No More quote running around in my skull for the last hour or so.  It's
from 'Angel Dust', the album after the one that spawned the quote 
printed above...

"Would anyone tell me if I was getting...stupider?"
                                            --"RV"

I'm not making any value judgements here, mind you.  I just had to get
that off my chest.

Sven :)

Summary: Let's add "MG" to the list
Keywords: abbreviation, warlord, time-saver
Organization: Dept. of Electronics, Carleton University
Date: Wed, 6 Jan 1993 16:02:54 GMT

    Due to the recent proliferation of "It's a [sword-type], ya midwestern
computer geek!", I propose a new addition to the warlord time-saving
abbreviations.  Now, along with FD (Feynman Diagram) and SC (It's the Southern
Cross etc.), I propose the following simplification:

    [sword-type] MG

So, the following from a recent Paul Tomblin article:

>  It's a ninja-to, ya midwestern computer geek!

will now become

>  Ninja-to, MG!

The C for "computer" has been omitted because it is redundant: simply calling
someone on USENET a geek automatically implies that they are a computer geek.

The new abbrevation will take effect upon receiving to G. F. McQuary's
approval.

Really, putting quotes in one's sig is bad enough - but a complete
extract from a story!  Some people . . .

                              - * -
   From the adventures of Chuck Dammit, Private Investigator:

     The synthetized voice of Della, my secretary daemon, filled the
     room:

     "New mail for Chuck Dammit, Private Investigator, from Oracle."

     Damn, if I could synthetize a body to go with that voice!

     I checked the message.

     "You call that grovelling?  Why, I'm tempted to zap you!"

     Obviously, this wasn't one of the Oracle's better incarnations.
     Besides, the Oracle did try to zap me once.  I don't think he'll
     try it again.

It's the return of the dreaded Bed o' Nails .sig, that's what's wrong
with it.  And look at those asterisks, caged in defiance of all that's
good and holy. (I agree with you about the map of Russia, though.)
